I've spent about $200 at the Apple iTunes store so far, and I fail to see how the format is particularly volatile. I download the songs, copy them to a fileserver, and burn an unencrypted CD to put it into my CD colection. This whole process takes perhaps a whopping 5 minutes.
Actually, some already do. I'm aware of a delivery service that allows regular customers to pay via credit card, which I'm sure isn't the only one. After all, the money laundering process needs to begin eventually.
Clearly you've never used any of the modern automotive gps navigation systems. They're not perfect, but they're damned close. They know what road you're on about 99.8% of the time, which will surely be deemed good enough by our new conservative overlords.
You're assuming that it's not possible to modify these ECUs to indicate that for the last 5 seconds you were driving 45 miles per hour, and not touching the brake or the gas.
"I passed out before the accident." Well, the ECU says his story is true, surely he wasn't weaving between lanes at 80mph as the plaintiff says!
Carrying only credit cards leaves one open for far too many incidents (sorry, our credit card processing system just broke, or if there's a power outage or what not)
Some people don't like the risk associated with carrying cash, but personally I find it comforting to know that my wallet has enough money in it to take care of most any situation which could arise, and not be payable via credit.
Go wired between your servers and to any permanent or near permanent connections. 100Mbit is cheap and Gigabit is reasonably priced. Gigabit has the advantage of local hard drive like access speeds to your servers. Wireless is great to have, but it's low bandwidth, it's not good for anything really.
As for audio distribution, I'd use AES/EBU over RG6. It's not particularly common, but it works, though very little consumer audio equipment can handle that format directly.
For video distribution, the only solutions I've seen are to go analog and run the analog signal down some coax. If you have satellite TV, you can think about getting like a 5x12 multiswitch or something, and sending the custom analog feeds in the place of analog antenna signal.
I was a Rensselaer student a while back, and it seems very reasonable to me. Rensselaer is about $15k to $18k per semester, and most students are there for five years. Spending $12k to continue one's education instead of screwing up a semester makes perfect financial sense.
the rendering engine used by IE/Mac is completely different from the one used in IE/Windows. This is why IE5/Mac had so much better support for CSS and such than IE5/Win.
Honestly, you only bear the cost of a Mac once. They hold their resale value incredibly well, thus offsetting the price difference for pretty much all of eternity, after you've bought one.
Uhhhh....you *do* know how to check if your browser is using SSL for a particular page or not, right? There's usually an icon somewhere on the status line with most browsers.
To be fair, you don't sign up within a regular browser, you sign up from iTunes. But the non-ssl paranoia is unneccessary as it does use SSL. They aren't complete fuckwits after all.
Is this epixtar the one that has a url of http://www.epixtar.com/? I see that this epixtar is indeed located in Florida, as their name, address, and phone number are on nearly every page of their site, but I'm not sure if it's the same Epixtar.
Can anybody verify if these companies are one and the same?
Nah, we're not even close to approaching capacities that we don't know what to do with. 240gigs isn't enough to hold the average dvd collection, and it certainly isn't enough to hold much HD video. Never underestimate man's ability to store shit.
As for solid state, it's cheap, so long as you pretend the year is 1990.
Has anybody looked at the Theo De Raadt is a huge fucking asshole angle? In the past he's managed to build walls between himself and the rest of the world, and perhaps he just did it again.
Let's say I take a quick snap of myself and my new girlfriend, and send it off to my pal across town so he can see how much fun we're having. Do I want that image to reach my parents? Do I want my ex girlfriend to see it? How about my co-workers and enemies? I'd rather not, thanks.
I've got a really good solution to this problem. It's called 'trust your goddamned friends'.
Hmmm... same model number as the one I have... I did some checking and verified that much to my surprise, my PS2 can do progressive out, and my television verifies that it is indeed 480p. I just didn't realize because not only is it per-game, but each game activates it in a different retarded fashion. Very, very weak.
You'd think they'd just add a menu item, or a preference instead of this 'hold down some buttons when you start up' bullshit.
If you were put off a brand by an advertisement that was so successful in attracting viewers that it's now available on dozens of mirror sites, that's not a concern to Honda. The fact that they did it without computer graphics is what makes this ad special, interesting and worthwhile.
The fact of the matter is that this ad is sufficiently unique to entice people to voluntarily view it, and that's a rarity in this day and age. After all, I normally skip commercials with my PVR, yet I and tens of thousands of other people just watched a 2 minute car commercial, voluntarily.
safari has been gathering dust? that's odd... the safari that i'm using has added tabs, autofill, and improved html rendering in the past two months. oh, and it's had a google search field since day one.
camino is all well and good, but there's no need to diss safari.
Among the people who actually race their cars, yes, it's very common to have completely stripped cars. Of course, most of the people who race seriously have a dedicated race car, which makes this far more feasible.
So Cubase SX and Cubase X|TC don't exist and the MOTU interfaces aren't supported? That's odd... Here I thought I was using them on a 10.2.5 box about ten minutes ago.
contrary to what mtv would lead you to believe, very few artists and producers are uber-rich. Most of them fall somewhere between 'eeking out a living' and middle-class.
Asking all the artists who only sell 500,000 albums in their lifetime to take a pay cut because n'sync will sell 100,000,000 in their lifetime is unfair. Unless of course you want to make sure that there is less diversity in music, in which case it's a genius plan.

You should try asking google.

the wireless earpiece and easy syncing are just a bonus, in my mind.

Mine has component out, but it's 480i, not 480p. Do you have an exact model # for your progressive scan model?
