Since Zune is a separate offering that is not part of the Plays For Sure ecosystem...
It does NOT say that the Zune is not Plays For Sure compatible.
Let me help you.
Zune Player says:
Import your media from iTunes®, Windows Media® Player.[3]
[3] Zune software can import audio files in unprotected.WMA, MP3, AAC; photos in JPEG; and videos in.WMV, MPEG-4, H.264.
Don't you think if it was a Plays For Sure device that that would be part of their marketing??
The Win32 BSOD does give you better information so you can try to diagnose the problem.
Kind of like knowing that there were: - 56 bulbs - 24 horizontal grill bars - 72 vertical ridges on 1600 sq ft of 1/4" steel - 20% full gas tank - 209,000 miles driven - 3 tread patterns - 5 axles - 18 wheels
All of these designs look pretty good, and I have my preferences.
BUT, the winner should definitely be able to scale gracefully. In Firefox, use Ctrl + Scrollwheel (or Ctrl +, and Ctrl -) to see if the site has a good scaleable design.
I once looked at the nutritional value on a packet of Marshmallow Peeps. I discovered that they actually contained more grams in Sugars than the Serving Size weighed.
I vowed from that time forward never to touch a product which violates all known laws of physics...
You create terrorists by wrongly imprisoning people.... Maybe we ought to work on what is pissing said people off.
Osama hasn't spent any time behind bars, and neither have most Palestinian terrorists. Having a different religion and being near the Middle East seems to be what is required to make them angry.
I also try to avoid binary-only, however in this case the benefits outweigh the missing functionality.
Also, I've read (but not verified) that the via drivers are only supported on older kernels.
Actually, they support the standard kernels for RedHat and Fedora, but not the updates (FC4 is at 2.6.15). I spent an hour or two getting the driver working under the FC4 2.6.15 update, and haven't had an problems so far. Mostly just handling obsoleted functions.
I've never had any problems with the SP series; the problem seems to be with EPIA M, MII and CL.
Re:HD Myth on a Via nano-ITX with CN400

MythTV 0.19 Released

· Score: 4, Interesting
xine plays 1080i on this platform with the 1.0 GHz CPU about 30% idle
If you use the VIA supplied driver (comes in binary and re-compilable versions), you'll get about ~25-30% usage on the (800MHz) SP8000E.
I have mythweb setup to run VeMP (VIA's enhanced mplayer) for playback, and never see dropped frames on any HD content.
It would be GREAT if VIA supported MythTV like they do the VeMP and ViaeXP players. I think this would really help them get those little motherboards to sell. (A native HDTV output would help as well.)
I think the main factor in getting a fanless system is the available convection airflow -- without that the system won't stay cool.

He noticed my glance and I could see him size me up. He too saw a large florid-faced and bearded man wearing a knit henley and shorts. Our eyes met and I knew that he knew were were of the same tribe, shamans to the silicon spirits. We smiled an went about our business.
When you absolutely, positively have to know why your system isn't interoperating with the rest of the network, tcpdump will provide the answer. That is, assuming you know what it all means.
There's no easier way to lay the blame squarely in the Windows camp (or to eat your hat)...
A few diagnoses I've performed:
Providing the exact query in a web-developers app that was causing major problems
IE doesn't work with proxy because it sends invalid HTTP/1.0-formatted requests.
Connection to AD only works intermittently because your LDAP bind limit of 5 seconds is not long enough
Latency through the roof due to email/web/etc
Service unavailable because remote port is not listening
etc...
I would say tcpdump is the #1 program for serious problem-solving -- at least with the work I did...
Great! Now I can combine cutting edge technology with free 1996 data! I've been waiting nearly 10 years for something like this to come along -- this web thing is gonna be BIG!!
Until the United States (and the rest of the world for that matter) has a graduated corporate tax on revenues (not profits but revenues)...
I'm not an economist, but that is about the dumbest suggestion I have heard for corporate tax reform.
Take a $10 billion dollar company with a 10% margin. Currently we'll say they are taxed at 25% of their 10% profit. Their taxes are now $250 million. If you decide that equals a 2.5% tax on revenue, what happens to another $10 billion dollar company with only 2% profitability? They now have -0.5% profits, under your magical scheme. Sounds like job cuts will be needed...
Perhaps you didn't explain yourself and I misunderstood your idea, but it won't work the way you've described.... which constantly creates unnecessary laws which add relatively major costs of compliance to small businesses...
If you're referring to Sarbanes-Oxley, it only applies to public companies, and compliance costs are more directly related to the complexity/organization/scope of the business than company size.
Currently I've got over 100 movies in my queue - I'll probably never see them all.
And if you have REALLY popular selections, you probably won't ever see them all.
This is one of the (apparent) major pains of NetFlix (I am not a user, but have friends who were) -- popular items take a long time to get to the top of your list, and then you keep waiting. Too bad if you wanted to see a particular movie in the next week -- you will have to go rent it from your local store.
Of course it is a great system for the average movie. This new internet delivery may well fix this (supposed) deficiency.
Using their calculations, a sitcom that starred an elvis impersonator who thinks he's God, and features absolutely nothing him trying to stand up on a moving ship for 1/2 hour every episode would be the world's most successful sitcom...
Maybe it's time to turn on the TV again, things are looking up.

Some of these three do better than others...

Unless you can get your heater or CPU to output other than 1 joule every watt, I'm going to have to disagree.
Mo-gul-ist:
1. A Mongol or Mongolian mogul.
2. The moguls' mogul; a magnate-ist.
3. A professional mogul.

I thought yesterday Slashdot told me there was no such thing as time.

A few diagnoses I've performed:
I would say tcpdump is the #1 program for serious problem-solving -- at least with the work I did...
... an intense retroreflection ...
But what happens if it gives back just a regular reflection? Sounds like a loophole...
And they CANNOT sue you for making noncommercial copies onto qualifying media:
