My wife's been bugging me to "get the damn wires hidden!" I say, it's really hard to unless we go wireless. "Fine! Do it!", she says. He, he, he.....SCORE!
That reminds me of how I got my first modem. Back in the days, when I had an IMSAI 8080, my wife dropped into my office, where I maintained mini computers. I showed her the "Adventure" game on a VAX 11/780. After a while she got hooked on it and asked if she could run it on my computer. I said no, but if we had a modem... I was soon the proud owner of a 300 baud manual modem! ;-)
