If I remember, I'll try to look and see what model it is. @Rob – This one works on anything I’ve tried it on so far – tv trays, books, semi-glossy walls, legs, leather couch, etc. I can’t say I’ve tried it on carpet though.

Mostly because we now having a media computer hooked up to our tv. So we watch movies and shows online....on our tv. Now, obviously you need another computer, but the thing is, it doesn't have to be very fancy. My fiancee recently upgraded his computer. He put the old one into a nice looking very discreet case, hooked it up, and voila! Didn't actually cost anything since he was upgrading anyway. Oh, he did buy a good wireless mouse that works on just about any surface though. We just keep it with the remotes. My fiancee is finally starting to open up to cutting cable.

But lately I've been turning my creative brain to making tasty, interesting, cheap dishes. And I don't eat out much at all. I have also given up on shopping for clothes. I have a job where I need to be dressed for success, but I am recycling old outfits and rematching things so I don't have to buy new.
