Shane and Kel came over last night and we walked down to the Queen Vic market, to test-drive their summer Night Market. I heard good stuff about it from Stretch, but it wasn’t really that good.
Most of the market is roped off, because they have stalls where you can buy beer and food (which is cool) but the whole place was kinda expensive. There were heaps of different types of food, but it lacked that good quality food at a cheap price that the market generally offers. Everything was expensive and kinda dodgy.
Later, we installed the new Xbox Media Center on Shane’s newly bought and chipped Xbox. Let me just say for the record, Xbox Media Centre is tha shit. It has the most awesome interface, plays just about every media format you can think of, will play files from network shares and can even play shoutcast streams. This thing is incredible. Apparently you can also grab the MythTV plugin for it, and hook it up to a MythTV backend (running on a remote computer) and schedule TV recording and playback pre-recorded streams.
