I didn't see it but apparently one of the SB commercials was for
the "Google Home" thing that responds to verbal commands.

In the ad a family comes home and says "Ok Google" and gave it some
command like "turn the lights on" or something.

A bunch of Google Home devices in viewers' homes responded to the
command in the advertisement. Funny.

My Google Home system didn't respond because it's unplugged. Just don't
tell my daughter.

My Echo is still in the shrink wrap. It was supposed to run the TV but
once I looked into it, not so much, unless you buy an Amazon Fire
stick.

I ordered the Fire Stick this morning. Will try installing Kodi on it. Daughter tells me that's the
thing to do.

I have one smart TV and PCs connected to the others so I have not
figured out what the stick will do for me.
Originally I thought the Echo would talk to the smart TV but it seems
not. My wife wants it but I have no problem running any of them with
the existing devices.

I got a Bose Solo 15 for Christmas, convincing my wife that it would look nicer and sound better
than what we had for a TV sound system. So I took what we had, a Bose Lifestyle 25, and hooked it up
to my computer. Now I get some pretty decent sound out of this thing.

We both have nice PC speaker sets with the sub woof by our chairs
hooked to the TV. My wife has a Bose and mine is Creative.
Combined with the big screen, it does enhance the movie experience.
Most of the time we just use the TV sound tho.
