Front Row

Installed Front Row today. It’s only on the latest iMac at the moment, but someone cracked it for all other Mac Users. Functions pretty much like an ipod menu. Cool gadget. Now if only I had a bluetooth phone to act as a remote. Downside is, it doesn’t play my TV downloads, cause it’s propietary QT player doesn’t support .xivd files.

(Update: If you install divx fusion, it allows you to watch tv downloads via front row. Thanks to ivan for the tip.)

Oh, and I also had my first ride on a motorcycle today, when I was given a lift home. Fun! Someone insisted that the ‘alley’ between the bus stop and my house wasn’t safe for me that late at night. Haha. Quite funny.
