Posted November 3rd, 2008 by zegerNAS at home: 3Tb
Posted October 29th, 2008 by zegerMvixUSA has build the MvixBox, for only $299, excluding drives, you get a nice little home server. Just add two 1.5Tb drives and you can store some of your favorite series in full HD quality. They should have build an expandable version since my 3Tb will have no space left by the end of the year.

Cooking without paper
Posted October 21st, 2008 by zegerSo I like to cook. I like the smell of the cookbooks and the spots, fingerprints and stains in it from previous attempts to impress the guests. I have to give up on all that but I consider it a minor drawback since I really like this device.

Small, smaller, smallest
