It plugs into your TV and uses your wireless (or wired network) to get the content from your personal computers. The Apple TV then displays something similar to a DVD-Menu for the user to select what they wish to see and hear. The display is also

St. Louis was hit with ice, a lot of ice. It came fast and went fast. They say if you don’t like the weather in St. Louis, just wait 5 minutes.
