This is the tip of the Iceberg my friends. I am sharing only some of my digital photos for $ FREE $ - that is it costs me NOTHING to do this.

I INSIST you look at the photo folder called "Mike's Fly Fishing in Alaska"
Best good time in my ENTIRE life - Caught 32-33 Salmon on a Fly Rod over a period of 4 hours. My shoulders were killing me catching fish #32 or #33 - I forget. :)

Anyway, enjoy viewing a SMALL portion of my digital photo life.
Lately, my gaming is occasional at best. I have been busy ripping the DVDs we own on to my Windows Home Server. Any PC can fire up the movie and watch it. Some of my stuff is Vista based. It is the snots! Fire up Windows Media Center on a Vista PC/Laptop and it automatically catalogs movies on the server. Point, click, watch.

Buying a "gadget" soon that will wirelessly transmit ANY ripped DVD movie or ANY DivX clip/movie to ANY TV in the house. Only drawback is only ONE TV - i.e. the two of us cannot watch two different video clips/movies at the SAME time.

Well, for an old fart, I am having a BLAST of good times learning this stuff ... and that is why I don't post too often any more.

Bottom Line - ENJOY! my photos and PM me if you are interested in setting up a Windows Home Server in your house.

These are Wonderful Times we live in! - Take Care!

Going to fart [pffffffft] around with music next and stream my music collection remotely next. Since the video stuff is working, music should be the cats MEOW! :)

By the way:

Here is my Silent Hunter IV screen shot collection on the SAME server box - be PATIENT with your first visit - takes awhile to generate 400+ thumbnails:
