Hulu, comp hook up to Comp, and Magic Jack
I thought instead of writing 3 different posts I would just combine them all here.
First, How many of you use Hulu? I have never used it, because I am always weiry on downloading or going to new sites. The site looks to have many movies, but are they full length and is the quality good?
Also, I wanted to hook up my laptop to my TV, but can't get it to work. Do I need to hit Fn and then F6 to connect them? I was told this is what I had to do after connecting the two. I have tried HDMI cable and got nothing. I have an S video cable that I can try, but haven't yet.
Now, how about Magic jack? My father in law gave me this thing the other day to try. He said he never tried it but to take it and see if I could use it. Anyone try this thing out? It seems a bit to good to be true to use.
I am not a tech savvy guy, so if you guys want to chime in and let me know on these 3 things I would apprecite it.

I've heard about that magic jack thing too. I wonder how the call quality is? I think a huge downfall is that if you use it in a house, you can have one phone to the number. I doubt a base hooked up to the computer would allow the other phones to call off of that number.
Maybe I'm wrong...?

My wife and I currently just use our cell phones. My cell is also my business line, so its my multifunctional calling device at this time. This magic jack seems pretty darn cheap if it works and I could actually use it as a cheap means for my business, if it works.

Just use Skype if you want cheap calling - it's like $30/yr for unlimited calling the US, and very, very cheap long distance. Another $30 gives you a US number mapped to your account. I did sales for my startup using Skype for 6 months, no one was the wiser .

Skype does seem like the way to go.......
