The new fall TV season is shaping up to be the Year of the Geek (or Year of Sex in the City ripoffs, you take your pick). There are shows about geeky teenagers (Aliens in America), geeky roommates (Big Bang Theory), and geeky action heroes. The last one I would be talking about would be NBC's Chuck.

AVerMedia has released another update to its line of TV tuners, with an HDTV/analog tuner for laptops. The AverTV Hybrid ExpressCard TV tuner is compatible with Windows XP, Windows XP MCE 2005, and Windows Vista.
The new card supports up to 1080i HD signals with 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios.
You'll need a laptop with an ExpressCard interface to use the card. Otherwise, you might want to take at
AVerMedia's latest USB tuner, which is somewhat less portable.
The AverTV Hybrid ExpressCard will set you back about $130.

This week we learn that Earl Hickey still can be led astray somewhat from his karmic journey. Number 37 on his list
was "stole a laptop", so he and Randy begin the trek to return to it's rightful owner. Of course, through a
series of flashbacks, we learn that Earl wasn't exactly the best of students, so when he learns that the laptop belongs
to a college professor, his old fears of failure return.
On the way to the college campus, Earl and Randy knock
over a bus stop sign as they continue to be amazed by the screen saver. He promises an elderly woman that he'll fix the
sign the next day, but coming events will prevent him from doing so.
As they reach the Frostburg University
campus, Earl and Randy find themselves in the middle of a frat party, and Randy is astounded by all the goings on. He
asks Earl if he can stay and join in on the fun, and his brother agrees. Earl continues to search for Professor Alex
Meyers, and discovers to his liking that she is an attractive professor. While trying to get her attention to give her
back the laptop, the professor fears she is about to be assaulted, and promptly lands a hard kick to Earl's
"cherries."
