It's much nicer to be able to just build the latest oggutils release on your own machine and play higher quality rips, rather than bitch at some company and wait for them to (possibly) build an ogg based unit.
When building your own system and purchasing all the parts yourself, going OEM instead of retail can save you a shitload of money. You might lose a year or two on the warranty, but how often do your components go bad on their own?
You've been in California long enough to know we get our share of earthquakes, a lot of which are minor (ie, THIS ONE). News worthy? Sure, people want to know what happened. Slashdot worthy? Not at all. It was a 5.0, nothing special at all!
You know, I've heard someone once got shot in Silicon Valley.. someone should look up the story and post it on/., because Linus is in the Silicon Valley, and next time that someone could be Linus that gets shot, and then we'd all be fucked. And everyone knows, if it gets posted to/. then we'll all somehow magically be prepared for it be cause we were "thinking about it."
They better not try to pull the gayness they did with Q3A (and maybe RTCW?) where you had to enter your credit card info to prove that you're over 18, just so you can download the goddamn demo from Activision, one of the few working sites.

Sure does make you wonder though...
What an appropriate username for someone on /. ...
Grab some spraypaint. An extra stripe will get you a few MB/s, and logically 2 stripes should easily double that.
Also try putting the whole thing in a coffee can, so all the heat from the exhaust can vent out and you'll get that much better performance.
