| 1319897 | 2012-12-23 19:40:00 | 2 Desktops, both connected to the net wirelessly. An Xbox, which is also wireless, wireless canon printer, which supports Airprint, 1 smartphone, normal cell. Both can get online. Brought a Panasonic Bluray/DVD player last week. Which supports LAN and wireless. But the wireless is separate (you have to buy the adapter). It supports DLNA. So, once I get the adapter, I should be able to play MP4's on this hdd. To the TV. Had an older bluray player which supported MP4, but I had to convert them before it could play them. The Panasonic can play them as is from Youtube. Via USB. Next thing I may get is a hdd for it. since it supports FAT or NTFS formatted hdd's. Dont have an LCD TV (besides the monitor I'm using - with a USB tuner) |

| 1319900 | 2012-12-23 20:14:00 | I'm part of the minor groups :p I didn't count tv's, but it's a CRT - we don't buy stuff if we have things still working. i don't count receivers, routers, printers etc. Just things that you can actually get online and do the usual things - surf, email etc. since everyone has counted others in the household: Myself - PC, laptop, smartphone. smartphone is just calls, text, read emails and read news/weather, skype and gps (overseas). i don't download other apps. Others here - one netbook (his main), xbox360 but cannot go online b/c he hasn't purchased the Internet Explorer subscription, he can only do online gaming but not freq. A old free PC just to manage the printer, saves us buying a print server :lol: but the older CRT monitor it has is showing wear and tear after 10-13yrs. He also has a 3" Android cellphone but has switched back to a dumb phone. I basically try to steamline it all and have no overlap. Never took a laptop to travel unless we had a family road trip (once). Overseas nope. I travel with a daypack only :D So the toothpastes has to be within 50g or 50ml for liquids. More devices = more chargers and cables and carry cases :D |

| 1319901 | 2012-12-23 20:17:00 | If he can play online on the Xbox he can use IE. All it needs is a gold sub. IE doesn't need a separate sub, But, you have to have a gold sub, to use it | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||

IE doesn't need a separate sub, But, you have to have a gold sub, to use it I don't think he has Gold then. He has the other cheaper voucher card whatever it is. I'm not too into those things. Xbox credit or points ..... |

| 1319903 | 2012-12-23 20:26:00 | K. Sounds like MS points, so he can pay for whatever. So, he can play it (if it's a game) | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1319904 | 2012-12-23 20:45:00 | K. Sounds like MS points, so he can pay for whatever. So, he can play it (if it's a game) He says Gold is a monthly/yearly payment? Sound right .. |

| 1319906 | 2012-12-23 20:54:00 | He says Gold is a monthly/yearly payment? Sound right .. Yup, you can get a gold sub for 3 mths, 6 mths (I think), and a year. When you buy some games, it may also come with a 1 mth gold sub key |
