What no intro?? Boy this was the most comments to date I think.. Have had the Togni at a wine tasting event I believe, good stuff, and did drink a bottle of the 2002 Aida, was great, drank it a year later than this episode. QOTD-that's a stupid question. http://www.winelx.com

    Here’s my story about wine drinking and computers. My laptop’s DVD burner stopped burning a few years ago at a terrible time. I’m a film editor and at 1:30 in the morning with a director standing over my shoulder I couldn’t burn the DVD he needed. A very grim night for me, but eventually I found another computer to burn the cut. A few weeeks later, after much trouble-shooting, I brought the laptop to the Apple store (it was still covered under warranty). Yep, DVD burner was dead, but to fix it I had to hand the computer over for shipping off to Apple. I needed the computer for business and couldn’t afford to be without it, so I bought an external burner and went home sad. I opened a NZ Sauvignon Blanc, don’t remember which one, and put it down next to the laptop. Reaching for it, I spilled the WHOLE GLASS into the open laptop. Keyboard was totally drenched. I shut it down and took it apart to dry it with towels, Dust Off and a haridryer. Then my wife and I finished off the Sauvignon Blanc and went upstairs feeling no pain. Fade out. The next morning I put the laptop back together and found that it worked perfectly. On a hunch, I tried burning a DVD. No problems.

    Three years later and I’m typing on the same PowerBook right now while burning a DVD. So … NZ Sauvignon Blanc is always what I drink when I have computer trouble.

    Gary, If it makes you feel any better… I broke my thumb and missed the whole thing.
    These corkscrew things are more complicated than they look.

    I found my favorite pairing though…
    Any wine (you choose) paired with my doctors recommended dose of acetaminophen w/ CODEINE.

  • diego de la p….

    Welcome to the wonderful world of IT roll outs! You’ve joined a long and distinguished line of people who’ve initial product introductions didn’t go entirely as planned. VOIP telephony, wireless infrastructure, streaming video. Everyone has been through this sort of thing at one time or another. Don’t get down on the technology. Learn and improve. Think of the chat as part of an ongoing, incremental feature roll out of your live video feature.

    Good work and have a great vacation.

    Togni may be the best California Cab out there. Been drinking it since the mid 90’s when it was really a steal for $50.00. QPR outstanding. If you can wait 10-15 years to drink them it will only get better.

    Safe travels,
