    PC only Recognizes Airport Network now

    So I have just upgraded from an airport express to an extreme in our house. My girlfriend has a PC and it was a pain to get her computer connected as it wouldn't recognize WPA. Finally got it hooked up by setting a WEP on the airport instead. Now though, the computer no longer automatically...

    Network Music Players?

    So I am doing research for my mom who is stumped on what to get my Dad for Christmas. Since he is fairly styled out Mac wise, not to mention a total music freak, I thought a good gift would be to get him a network music player.
