Hrmmm...sounds like an area of science about which very little is known. Kind of like quantum mechanics (although modern society has made advances in that area), but on the other extreme. =================================
Here's an idea that would please both sides...RIAA and company would get their $$$ while John Q. Internetuser would be able to *legally* download any mp3 of his choice without having to worry if he already owns the CD or has paid the royalties...
It involves setting up an internet site and coming up with a large collection of mp3s (using legal means). Internet users would be able to connect to the site and download mp3s of their choice with no per-mp3 charge - the royalties would be compensated for with banner ad revenue. Of course, this would take up a fairly large amount of bandwidth, so it may be some sort of subscription-based service, but even then this could be a fair way to give both sides what they want. =================================
LOL How about writing a script that would mow my lawn for me? (I wonder how you would set the parameters for that...temporarily hook a keyboard and monitor up to your lawn mower?)
The ABC censors...ugh. I can understand why they do what they do, but they carry it waaaaaay too far. Not that cussing is of utmost importance, but a movie like SP may as well replace its soundtrack with one long beeeeeeeeeeeeep to save ABC some time. They'd just mangle it beyond recognition anyway =\.

Speaking of the heat situation, how would it be if you overclocked one of these? And how fast would you be able to push it?
An 1 GHz chip OC'd to say 1.5 GHz...*drool*
