Thanks! Yeah, it's a clothes drying rack. I used steel thread (like a guitar string) and ZippTies to hold it to the frame. I regret not light-bulbing a way to attach the speakers. I bought extra-long vid cable, so I can roll the thing just about anywhere in the room.

Sorry, I'm forgetful how frustrating dial-up is. I'm moving back to it in a couple of weeks (ugh!) and am considering Hughes dish.

I'm on 20MB and it still takes too long for me.

Anyway, Nice screen and nice idea.

I'm on a huge broadband (not tested the speed here though) and it's really slow, not to mention that they are far to large even for my 1280 px wide screen. If I zoom out the images in FF the look very nice.

It's not pretty but kinda cool, if you have need for one. And yeah, the speakers is a big minus.

Ouch! I know!!! When I moved to this apt, I left my vacume cleaner at the old!

It's ALL my two cats' fault. Really!
