Re: Wireless Routers - Suggestions??

I have the Apple AirPort Extreme and love it.

Four (maybe five) gigabit wired ethernet ports, wireless N, and you can connect a USB hard drive to it for NAS which is great.

Re: Post your desktop

Even though I have a UMKC ID, I didn't even need to show it to get my copy of Leopard.  I don't think they really care too much.

iLife '08 and iWork '08 are each $29 at the bookstore, too.

Re: ESPN2HD on Time Warner

My HD TiVo has a placeholder slot for FSNMWHD right next to ESPNHD in the program guide on TWC, so it wouldn't surprise me if we see the Royals in HD next year.
