1-Click Blooper Playback for Original Trilogy DVD

Posted by timothy on from the bezos-probably-holds-a-patent-on-this dept.

I like easter eggs, and I'd like you to keep up your work, but I've buried IE so far down in my menus I sometimes forget where it is... And what about us Linux users? A platform independent plug-in would be nicest. I only use IE for Windows Update and online virus scans through trendmicro.com, that's all, and that's not going to change.

    My first first post, I think...
