Instant Netflix

The power of Netflix amazes me yet again. Now, instead of waiting for your movie to arrive in the mail, you can watch it instantly on-line. The fullscreen quality isn't great, nor is it terrible, but if you watch it in the slightly smaller window mode reminiscent of how Lost looks when you watch it online through ABC's website, it looks just dandy. And this is all included in your subscription price.

Now, I don't know if I would ever really want to watch a full-length movie on my laptop when I could watch it on my TV. But I've found that if I'm trying to catch up on say, The Office or any other TV show which would force me to receive 5 or 6 discs, instead of waiting for each disc to show up, I can pull up an episode here and there instantly. That's just fantastic.
