Man, we're not having very much luck with our gizmos these days. A few weeks back, our DVR was tweaking, then my iPod goes on the fritz, and now our replacement DVR is having hiccups as well. Nothing serious, but a few of our recorded programs jump right to the end when we fast-forward through the commercials. Weird stuff.
Think I may take a break from CrimeCraft later today and check out Supreme Commander 2, or finally give AvP a whirl. Of course, as soon as my PC copy of Battlefield: Bad Company 2 arrives, everything else has to move over.
