Where Is the Geek Squad When You Need Them?

Where’s the Geek Squad when you need them?  What are they doing?  Who’s working on the important stuff.  Can someone please tell me why we have wireless phones, wireless computers and wireless printers but we can’t add cable TV to a room without drilling a hole in the wall?  What’s the problem?

Why is it that I can have one cable connection for my television, add a router to it and use it to run several lap top computers from any place in my house?  Why then, can’t we use the same technology to run cable TV to the guest room.

When we built our town home, we had the builders install three cable connections:  family room, office and master bedroom.  In hindsight, we should have put a connection in the guest room but we were empty nesters and didn’t want the kids to come visit and get too comfortable with cable in the bedroom.  We wanted them to go back to their own homes (well I wanted them to go back my husband would keep them forever).

Just like most families, we all have different taste in TV.  On Sunday night I want to watch The Unit, Fred want’s to watch sports or CNN and the girls want to watch something else.  So back to the original question – where is the geek squad when we need them?  I know there’s a solution to this problem.  Could it be that the cable people just want to make more money by coming out to install another outlet?  I don’t know, I just want another cable connection without drilling a hole in the wall!
