I can't wait.   I've got my computer hooked up to my 42" TV, a wireless keyboard, a big couch, pizza and a case of beer just waiting.   I wasn't home for the X/Open broadcasts and I just can't wait to watch some skiing at home.   I don't usually watch sports but now that I can watch skiing online that all changed. 

I'm just so happy that things are beginning to get streamed for our viewing pleasure.   Its amazing!

How fast is your internet? 

I know it sucks man, the problem is that on many levels the technology to stream live on the internet is new.   I mean unless you have super sick highspeed internet, there's no way you'd be able to watch that.  I had troubles for a bit... its all new and will all get better in time. 

Thats what sucks about computers eh?  They get so fancy so fast, but when you try to use the capabiliteis it all falls apart.  :)

I have super fast connection and the countdown running several hours - diidn't work!!! Without sounding like a total geek I think it has something to do with the Quicktime transmission protocols and firewall settings. I will try and figure before the nippon open! I'll post results here.
