Do you know what your AppleTV can do?

Proably not. Boxee wasn't included in the last patch stick.

1) Go to http://www.boxee.tv/index.php and create an account.
2) Download this ... http://code.google.com/p/atvusb-creator/
3) Extract and follow the instructions to make a patchstick.
4) Boot AppleTV with the resulting PatchStick to add the Boxee Menu/Installer.
5) Remove patchstick and reboot.
6) Go Into Boxee Menu and select update. Install all 3 apps.
7) Reboot AppleTV.
8) Go into Boxee.
9) Add User Account.

You can now stream internet video from lots of places at pretty decent quailty -- including lots of free tv shows from Hulu ... now Shane can catch that episode of BSG he missed last friday and watch it on an actual TV easily. Hulu will allow you to create a queue, then watch it in Boxee.
