Strawberries with no wires.
1) Last night I replaced my wired router with a hybrid wired/wireless router (the D-Link WBR-(numbers), if you care).
The router was very easy to install, came with an E-Z configurator for Windows which I did not use, and had straightforward configuration for Linux and MacOS and expert Windows users, which I did use. Grade: A+
Ubuntu was fairly easy to set up - it did not auto-detect that there was a wireless network, I had to type in the SSID, and I had some issues with WEP passwords and requiring hex instead of ASCII, which ate about 15 minutes of annoyance. It did end up working with a minimum of effort, however. Some slight explanation of the fact that Ubuntu only works with Hex WEP passwords would have been nice, and saved me that 15 minutes. Grade: A-
2) Whole Foods is having a sale on strawberries - $1.25 a pound for v. tasty organics. What should I do with them?
Update/Clarification: I wish to buy a large quantity, do something to them, and then freeze them.
