If you don't mind me asking, how did you get set-up in Berlin? I plan on brushing up on my Deutsche sprechen this summer and would like to study there through GSLIS at some point in the near future.

What's with all the Macs? I thought you said Korea was not Mac-friendly. 2. If they're so high-tech, why doesn't their video have a pause button or a time counter? 3. I love that one guy in the Red Sox T-shirt. And they showed him twice! Wow … that video is unbelievable. 3 things:

There should be no real difference between WiFi on a Mac or PC - it's a standard protocol. I think the problem is more likely with settings than with an actual incompatibility with Macs. (That said, it's admittedly a lot harder to get help with the settings if no one's familiar with how Macs work!) Sorry, tuning in a bit late – great to read what you’re up to!
