@coliver Very nice, besides the shakes.
If I recall correctly it was a graduate thesis for a HCI student team at MIT. They wanted to develop an easy to manage and use system for interacting with complex mathematics and menus in a touch driven interface. Or something like that... either way we got to play DnD on a huge touch screen.
I'd love to set something up like this. Hmmm.

Sounds like you are back in Romania!
Batavia is a Dutch name, actually
It's the old capital of the western part of the New Netherlands colony. -
Off to http://charcoalcorral.com/wp2014/ for a going away lunch for @Mike-Ralston (he is not leaving NTG just my house). He is actually moving to Michigan this weekend and will be living with @FiyaFly.

We had a friend in FL that was from there.

Debating if I finally want to tackle the unpleasantness of contacting FIOS to haggle for lower pricing, or just switch to XFINITY.

Never move from FIOS. I tried it.

I really, really, really despise Comcast.
I've actually been paying a considerable amount more just to not move to Comcast. But they just raised my rates AGAIN.
Priced out XFINITY and it's $75ish a month cheaper plus a $500 gift card.

I was using XFINITY recently. I had 4-5 issues a month. I'd rather have 99% uptime 150 up / 150 down and spend the money than a variable connection.

I know, I know.
Thanks for talking me off the ledge.
OK, time to get good and angry and call customer retention.

The only thing that sucks about FIOS is that you really can't threaten to leave because no one offers what they offer.

Setting up my iPad Air finally.

In NYC, CableVision is even better.
