This is going to be a busy week. (And I’m not talking about work – although that, too, will be busy.) When I was back in Brookline last week, I picked out all of the books that I wanted to ship to Seattle (about 250 of them). They should be arriving around the middle of the week, so in order to make space to arrange them, I went to IKEA yesterday and ordered a couple of shelf units. They are due to be delivered on Monday. And then the new HDTV that I ordered should get here on Tuesday, so tomorrow I’m going to call Millennium Digital and get them to upgrade my set-top box to an HD+DVR unit. Somewhere in all of this I need to pick up a couple of HDMI cables. (Can someone explain why Monster and Belkin think they can charge $100+ for a cable that I can buy for under $20 elsewhere?)
