The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Thought I'd pass along the good news.

    For those unfamiliar with PlayOn

    http://www.playon.tv/playon

    For whatever reason, DNLA-enabled televisions are not listed, but it works on my Samsung TV with no problem. I just tested it (literally).

    If you're not sure if it's worth it, download the demo and try it out on your game system or DNLA-enabled TV. That's what I just did...just to be sure it works how they say it does. It's $40 retail and is worth that...but at $20...it's a steal. I'd recommend trying it on your stuff this afternoon. Not sure how long this will be 50% off or when it'll be back.

    and fyi: Yugster is like Woot. I've purchased from them before. No problems.

    hope someone tries the demo and takes advantage. If you've got a Hulu, Youtube, and/or Netflix account that you use regularly and a console connected to your TV, I don't know how you pass this up.

    I suspect the deal might only last today.

    crap load of "plug-ins" adding more websites, shows, and webcasts:

    I see MTV, Southpark, PBS, Discovery, C-SPAN, Justin.tv, UStream.tv, VH1, NASCAR, SpikeTV, Fox News, and more. You just install them and they're added to your list of sections.

    lot of win.
