My old Airport Extreme bit the dust last night (power supply). So I went to the Apple store to pick up the new version and be tempted by the Mini Retina. Unbelievably, I did not buy a Mini, but I did get the router. It's fast, the numbers below are WiFi:
But it really is a PITA to get this thing to play perfectly nice with the Verizon FiOS router.

enough attention for the new guy.

Happy birthday, JP!

I like the Id more than the Cadet.

Happy bday!

I know I will be lusting after the mini retina, but for right now I'm pretty happy with the iPad Air. Especially coming from the Gen 1 version. Yes, I'd like it to be smaller, but then I'd also want it to be BIGGER.
And it's still not as fast as I think it should be.

Sorry to miss this one. Hope to make it in the spring.

I don't really have much of a problem with that but it's some of the posters that piss me off that need to learn to separate fact from opinion and vice versa. Is it that fucking hard?
This problem is everywhere (interwebs and real life) and I don't get it either. It shouldn't be that hard.

You've got me wrong, it's not just Cavalli. Just so happens this thread is where all the attitudes and design opinions suck the most. If you read your own posts, you sound like a bunch of kids bitching about everything that's not your own. Piss poor and immature criticisms IMO.
Nah, you're just a dipshit.

Sorry gang, I'm not going to be able to make it to this one. But I will be down in Florida this winter.

I meant to add, Todd, that I quite like the obit you created here for Ronald. In a very short space, you managed to convey a real sense of the man. RIP.

Sorry for your loss, Todd.

Had lunch with Mr. Toole. Good to see him around these parts again.

Good get. I tried out the Empire Builder, but it was too big for me. I can easily see how it would work well on trips. Enjoy!

I've held off installing iOS 7 on my 2nd Gen iPad, am I being overly cautious?
Not sure whether you should or not, but I'd be interested in what you think of the OS once you do.

I saw Lou in concert a bunch of times and on the street a bunch more. He was a New York institution and I liked him very, very much. RIP.

hmmm...My birfday is the 13th. Considering maybe making this a present to myself. Not sure I'll be able to given things going on, but we'll see. So for now I am a maybe and I have subscribed to your newsletter.

Now that data mining has become so sophisticated, I would think there'd be a way to measure influence of a given poster on a forum. I know Klout purports to do this across social media, but it seems pretty rudimentary at best. I'd like to see something more sophisticated applied at the forum level. But whatever, I have beaten this horse to death and well beyond. Sorry for the tangential rant.

I like Jude and I'll always be thankful for Head-Fi. Without it, I would not have met many of the true friends I have made through this hobby.
It's the sleazy vendors and aggressively stupid posters I can't stand.

Hey Head-Case, what's your bandwidth like?

Yeah, that part is dead simple, but I don't like bridge mode, mainly because I don't like the damn Actiontec. But I also don't want to go through putting the AEBS in front of the Actiontec. But I guess it's working for plenty of other people, so it should be good enough for chumps like me.
Anyone know any MAJOR downsides to bridge mode? One thing that confuses me is how DNS servers are handled.
