Eliz and I have put the kids to bed. We're sitting in the computer room. "Want to watch something?" quoth I wittily.

"Sure. What?"

Click. Tap, tap tap.*

"We've got the Top Chef Restaurant Wars episode. Or a Good Eats about ginger."

"Top Chef, please."

Tap, tap.**

And we go downstairs and watch it. But we could have watched it up here if we wanted to.




*Click on the MythTV frontend icon, starting a local display, Select _Watch Recordings_, then browse down the recently recorded list.

**Exit out, rather than watch it.

You're so retro, watching "television".

I think the next step would be to add a kitchen robot, so that when you click on the show it goes to work and by the time you've finished watching the food is ready for you to eat.
