Can you Hulu?
Being a little bit of a technology laggard, I was surprised to recently learn that a lot of the fantastic HD video that I watch online is in part because I have a newer laptop powered by the Intel Core2 Duo processor. It turns out that a good friend of mine cannot watch his favorite television shows online -- because they come across really choppy on his older desktop. They are just unwatchable.
I was laughing because originally, my friend was making fun of me for not having a DVR. (That's right. I don't.) But my little secret is that I don't need one. I can watch almost any of my favorite TV shows online in superb quality without it - on my laptop.
Between sites like Hulu.com, NBC.com, and ABC.go.com, so many of my favorite TV shows are only a click away --- whenever and wherever I want to watch them. So, can you Hulu? Do you? What other sites do you use for watching great HD video online?

Laggard indeed. When are you going to buy a Mac with YOUR Core 2 Duo processor. HD video play so much better.
No DVR? My Gawd!

Chill out Malcolm, he doesn't need it. I just got one of the best Mobo's from Asus(P5QPL) with an HDMI output, and my Intel Pentium Dual Core E6300 is indeed on the way. Now, grant it, I do have DVR and it's pretty snazzy but with a PC like the one I just re-built and internet access, one doesn't need DVR.
