How many online forum group members does it take to change a lightbulb?

[zehd]

Dang, now zehd has me wondering if I'll have to download the latest version of Microsoft's Light Bulb 2009 Redistributable package before I can even install a light bulb without some kind of installer failure.

And that's why I'm not using a MAC

which brings up another thought, if we actually did have a manual, would we start seeing "RTFM" here too?
[i highly doubt it actually]

nope... you would have people saying

Here is the page in the manual that tells you how to do what you are asking. [link]
But let us know if it doesn't describe it well enough we can help you out then update the manual

the rude people would probably just link the page...

I assume there will be a patch as soon as a solution comes to light. If you cannot successfully change the light bulb, please try to reproduce the problem and post your logs.

Without that kind of info, I am kind of "In the dark" as to what the problem really is.

This approach gives one a much greater sense of fullfilament.

I use EWA to control my bulbs. ASP.Net is the way to go to get bulb control :-)

We need screenshots, man... screenshots!

Wow. I thought he was kidding. Or is that a fake screenshot?

There was an episode of The Big Bang Theory where they hooked up a lamp so it could be controlled via the internet, but they left it open to the public and broke into cheers when someone overseas turned it on.

I use this USB device, Tellstick to transmitt On/Off to the cheap Lamp/Bulb controls.

(but I mostly control the bulbs with a remote)

There is a guy MrMad, over at MediaPortal that made a plugin for the Tellstick, so when a movie start, the light dim + many other features.

Personaly I dont see what all the fuss is about, I got a few friends round to help change to the newer energy saving bulbs, and we all agree that we are generaly much less tired now...
