The one and only time I've tried Napster was a few months ago. I had wanted to get the Moby album for some time but couldn't justify stumping up the money to find out whether it would be any good or not. I had been messing about with the Moby shockwave game and thanks to Napster, I found out that Bodyrock was actually one of the songs on the album. After downloading and listening to a full MP3 of it and Honey I was convinced and forced myself to stump up the £13 (approx $19.50) and that was with a discount. This may be rare case but napster encouraged me (a startving student) to stump up those extorinate album prices.
Here's a working url for nightly builds (the one/. gave appears to be broke) Latest nightly builds
M16 builds have been appearing for ages. The nightly builds are named after the upcomming milestone, so when M15 comes out all nightlies are now called M16... Take a look at the directory structure...
On related stuff the new builds are getting quite a bit faster and now have stuff like autocomplete in them. There was a feature freeze not long ago so we should (hopefully) see builds becoming more stable.
Linux moz is looking good although some old favourites (such as the scrollbars coming free bug) are still there.
The mac builds are still lagging behind other platforms which is a shame. We really do need more mac helpers to stop it becoming a third rate platform (in terms of the quality of it's mozilla builds).
From the little testing I've done on Windoze those builds seem good too.
Plugs/Links: Visit Mozillazine! It has a build bar that informs you how good previous builds are.
Hang out in #mozillazine. If you've got irc (and you should because moz has one built in which can be launched from the prompt using mozilla -chat) use/server irc.mozilla.org then/join #mozillazine
Got spare time and a fast connection? Help Smoketest the daily builds.
80'S CARTOONS ALLIANCE. This takes me right back. I was horrified to find out how many of these cartoons I actually remembered (like MASK, Visionaries, Captain N etc). Anyone who enjoyed these cartoons should start here.
I honestly thought this sort of thing was banned in the mid eighties after cineams started showing cans of Pepsi and the like to get people to buy more. Also, does anyone know if there are any long term after affects of subliminal messages?
Could someone shed some light on a few PS 2 myths that I've heard?
1. The PS 2 is hemetically sealed and opening it will casue various chips to damage themselves. 2. The PS 2 DVD playback is actually not very good - even your average joe will not be impressed by the quality. 3. It is backward compatible with most PS1 games and actually enhances them (crisper graphics faster frame rate). 4. It is backwards compatible with PS1 periphrals, but the pads are somehow improved. 5. The PS 2 is calssified as a supercomputer.

I recokon Sony missed an obvious marketing opportunity with this one. Now if only the PS2 could make MP3s to put on this thing. Encode MP3s whilst playing Tekken - just think of it...

Link first sighted in NTK
Take a look at Table renderer crashes on large tables. This may or may not be what is happening...
In my moz build (052109) the link appears to have /A on the end of it. NS 4 doesn't seem to see this though so I guess it's moz being quirky again.
