Netflix Hulu and all that crap are on there. PS3 hard drives can be upgraded too. Or just get chromecast for 35$ which I'm pretty sure can stream Netflix. Also I'm sure your pc isn't consuming that much power if all it's doing is idling or playing a movie. Especially compared to running everything at full tilt in a game or photoshop.

Yeah, at the very least, I'm sure you could build a budget htpc for like 350-400 bucks. Some cheap old case, apu (gpu+pcu) and a 1tb drive (80 bucks?) would probably do you fine. What kind of power is your normal pc kicking out when it's doing server duty? There might be some driver issues with the ps3, but I can't recall. It isn't nearly as bad as the 360, which is a big pain in the rear end. Any standard laptop hdd will slide right into the fatty and slim ps3s. I don't know about the super slim budget one they just released though. In other news, I really need to start using my crock pot more. Or making huge casserole dishes I can freeze for later. I hate waking up a little late then feeling like I'm wasting time making a decent meal, cause it's insane logic.

God drat I want a poptart. I also maxed out my budget from YNAB and it's only the 19th. I don't want to shuffle savings around because I just found out I owe the tax man 800 bucks. It'll all be okay, just a minor set back. I know that if this happened last year I'd have been absolutely fuckeddddd.

My problem with Mint is the delay. I swear things take a day or two to show up. Not to mention they think I owe my entire credit card balance every month. Granted, that is probably wise, but I'm not there yet.

Third floor man!! You'll get residual heat from floors 1 and 2, and the vaulted ceiling will keep you from roasting in the summer. You don't want a dog with peg legs loving above you do you?

Yeah man, naked 3rd floor action is gonna be awesome. Just imagine it, the cool breeze tickling your balls. Gonna be heaven. If you don't do it you'll be the one to endure the loud, sweaty sex of your uninhibited upstairs neighbors.

We have a barcade in my town, it's pretty swank. But it doesn't have a full bar, so... kind of a taste thing. God I never thought about electricity. Old rear end machines sucking up tons of watts. drat.
