The Wonders of Modern Technology

I'm a technology-oriented person, but I still am amazed at times when I see the type of stuff that's out there. Case in point: I picked up a Compact Wireless-G Broadband Router from Linksys to replace my old Linksys router. It was on sale for $40 at Best Buy, so I figured "why not?" The old router didn't support 802.11G and didn't have MAC address filtering, plus I seemed to be having some wireless issues with G cards (the old B card in the old laptop worked fine).

Anyway, here's a picture of the two routers side-by-side. Both do essentially the same thing and have the same capabilities, though the one on the right (the new one) is better in that it supports faster wireless:


Not a big deal, but I still find it to be pretty cool.
