• Each node is limited to 100Mbit and shares the 270Mbit backbone.
• You can route TV or Internet Cable through the box.
• If you plug each MoCA in to a WiFi router in each room, you get multiple 100BaseT connections and also make a faster WiFi backbone for your house (e.g. 402.11b to the local router, and 100Mbit to the MoCA near the cable box, and then cable speed to the internet)
• The MoCA network you make is encrypted so no worry about broadcasting your data down the street.
• All the cable points need to be interconnected with no filter or amplifier inline.  The frequency around ~1.4Ghz (from memory), so you'll need a 2.2Ghz splitter block (the more expensive ones, the cheap ones end at 1.2Ghz). A 5 way splitter (for the 1 cable in from the street and 4 MoCA devices) is only about $9.

When I need to pull out my usb drive I make sure the lights are not blinking and then I yank it. It's only corrupted a drive once but I had it backed up so no big deal.  Life's too short to worry about safe removal imo.

Edit: Logitech gaming keyboard has a switch that lets you turn off the win key, which is nice.

Yes. If you installed the Windows 7 Sp1, run this:

to remove the older RTM files. After you did this you can't uninstall the Sp1.

To save space you can also uninstall superseded updates. At each patchday I check the technet page and look which older updates are replaced and remove the old updates to keep my WinSxS folder as small as possible.
