Extend your wireless range to 1 mile

Let's say, for the sake of argument, that you're a mooch. You don't want to get yourself a wireless set up, and your buddy has agreed to let you hitchhike on his signal. The problem is, he lives two blocks away. No problem, you just need the 27 dBm Transceiver from QuickerTek.

When affixed to your 17-inch iMac G5 1.8GHz, the transceiver extends your airport range to 1 mile. Now you can easily see your friend's signal...as well as every other setup between his house and yours. The 27dBm is Wi-Fi compliant, it supports both 802.11g and 802.11b and works with both Mac OS 9.x and Mac OS 10.x.

Of course, for $200US, you could just buy your own base station, but how are you supposed to snoop on your neighbors with that?

Tip of the Day

Holding the Command key (aka the Apple key) and pressing Tab will cycle through your open applications. It's easier to Cmd-Tab if you are Copy (Cmd-C) and Pasting (Cmd-V) to and from various applications.
