I'm an early adopter. I don't just analyze technology from the safety of my own cubicle; I bring it into my home and live with it.

Like many home keyboard jockeys, I view my wireless network as a black box. I set it up to share my broadband Internet connection. It does that. So I leave well enough alone.
