for G+ posts I think it would be best to post weekly 'how-to' snippets. with a, 'For more information or support  post a message to the Phoenix Linux Users Group (PLUG) forum (http://phxlinux.org/). PLUG is a gathering of Linux user's who help and support one another with technical problems.'
This can be my first posting on behalf of PLUG:

You want free TV? If you can get a computer to act as your tv server (i'm using one from 2001):

download, burn, and install a copy of 'linux mint' (version 12 was the last CD edition) (http://www.linuxmint.com/oldreleases.php)

start new operating system

**Linux instructions**

cntrl-T (open terminal)

type in terminal (or copy and paste):

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa; sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get install xbmc; xbmc

**Other operating system instructions**

Google for and install 'xbmc'.

start xbmc

**Univesal instructions**

in xbmc:

1- Navigate to “System” (in the middle bar) and then open “File Manager”

2- Right click and select “Add source”.

3- Type http://fusion.xbmchub.com” into the box that says “<None>”.

4- Enter a name for the Source, “Fusion”

5- Click “OK”.

6- Right click on nothing. (sides/top/bottom)

7- System->Settings-> Click “Add-ons”

8- Select “Install from zip file”.

9- Select the source you named in step 4.

10- Install what you want (as an exaple we will use video)

11- Select “Repositories”.

12- Install “1channel...” (example)

13- Click “Get Add-ons” and select the repository you just installed.

10- Select “Video Add-ons”.

12- Click the name of the plugin you wish to enable.

13- Return to the main menu, and go into the category which your addon was installed to (most likely either VIDEOS, MUSIC or PROGRAMS). In this case, we installed a Video Addon, so select “Videos->Add-ons” and enjoy your new tv!

Go ahead and start by one-upping the G+ posts :).

I don't know if we have a Facebook account. #  "Who decided that holders of government-granted monopolies should
