Going to Grandma's? You don't have to scrounge around to find your kids' favorite DVDs before you go. Just hook up this cool gadget at your house, and take your laptop with you on your trip — you'll be able to get all your home TV channels, plus anything you've recorded on your DVR, right on your computer screen (as long as you have an Internet connection). Sure beats flipping through terrible hotel channels, too.
