Because when you're doing these you really have to personify something. And hire somebody who can speak.

Great for people like me with a two story house with no CAT5. Wireless works OK, but pushing HD MKV files can strain the connection through 2 stories and numerous walls. This is definately a lot cheaper than running CAT5 through my walls!!!

I bought one of these on Monday.

The comments that somebody made about this being complicated is nonsense. It is really plug and play.

So far working great for me, I am able to stream 1080p video without any problems.

First thought when I saw this was:

Plainview: Drainage! Drainage, Eli! Drained dry, you boy! If you have a milkshake and I have a milkshake and I have a straw and my straw reaches across the room and starts to drink your milkshake. I drink your milkshake! I drink it up!

I love how the entire time the video was skipping and lagging on me and I have a gigabit ethernet network with a average d/l speed of 30Mbps.
