A week or two ago I purchased a Logitech Revue. I bought it Friday night. Took it home. It was late, so I didn't even bother to take it out of the box. I slept on it and the next day I realized that I had made a $300 mistake. So I took it back to the store the next day for a full refund. The inner geek wants it. The realist in me knows that I have no time to waste sitting in front of the TV watching garbage or surfing the Internet. And we've had some expenses that have taken a toll on our savings account. I guess I'm just trying to be fiscally responsible this year or something.
I also decided to cancel our cable TV subscription as well. I called on Friday and they will be shutting it off today. It is only $15/month, but there is just so much trash on TV that I really don't think we'll miss it. There is a lot of stuff on the Internet. If we go through withdrawals, we can sign up again or hook the home PC up to the TV and watch TV via the Internet. Or I may break down and get that Roku player that I've been thinking of getting.... Naw. We'll just go without. We'll be OK.
