iTunes setup is 20 MB because it includes Quicktime 6.4
As for as Winamp launching really fast, do you have Winamp running in the system tray by default? It makes it "launch" in a second because it's actually launched when windows starts.
Just because it's a "Geek Humor" as you dubbed it, doesn't mean it's not funny at all.
Futurama is funny even if you're not a "geek".
"its good shit, but not the popular strategy."
Just because it's not another "reality based" television program or any other "stereotypical" television programs, it doesn't make Futurama any less popular.
The known fact is that there are a small group of people who in essence don't give a damn about Futurama. They are FOX NETWORK EXECUTIVES. Why even bother putting a program into your programming wthout any intention to promote it.
It's a surprise that Futurama last 5 TV seasons (4 production seasons). With lousy time slot, and being the redheaded stepchild of FOX Programming Schedule (pun intended - FRY), Futurama is doomed by the third season (quote of sarcasm: "This show has gone downhill since the third season" - BENDER SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ON TV)
FUTURAMA, it does NOT suck! It's merely mistreated by FOX (CRAP as described in The Simpsons - when Homer bought Animatronix-imightmisspelledit- stocks and he said: "What is this CRAP?" - "FOX.......")
what about music that has not been available in years, be it on cd, tape, vinyl, or 8/4 track.
Wonder if RIAA would try to stop the distributions of the out of print musics. Definitley there would be no loss revenue if the music itself is nowhere for sale.
What would RIAA do????? What would RIAA do????? What would RIAA do?????
I drive 30 miles one way. Need every advantages I can get from a car. Fast, fuel efficient, and comfortable.
I am considering to get a hybrid, but I'll wait till they nailed it down!

And, oddly, the Hybrid Civic CVT gets better mileage in the city than it does on the highway, much like the Toyota Prius. Well, Gas/Electric Hybrid cars; in general have better mileage when running at lower speed, because it generally used more of the electricity than the gas. On highways, cars are running at higher speeds. I beleve the engine needs more power than the electricity can provide. That's why the mileage on the highway is lower.
Also, the non-hybrid Civic HX can be ordered with a CVT (good for comparison, and isolation of CVT performance): 36/44 (manual) 4.90 tons/yr 35/40 (CVT auto) 5.20 tons/yr
For a comparison, here's the spec for Toyota ECHO
Mileage Estimates (mpg city/highway)
Manual 34/41
Automatic 31/38
High Miles/Gallon Gas ratio, that's what we need in a car. Unfortunately these cars don't have enough "muscles" as compared to the "more traditional" gas-only cars. So far the hybrid cars come only with automatic transmissions. Gas-Electric hybrid car with manual transmission, it would have higher MPG ratio, wouldn't it?
Tell the ral "GuyMannDude" that you would start selling his music by burning them on CD-R's As long as you pay him the oyalty, of course! Heck it's hard to find the CD's anymore!
Free "Souls At Zero" music!!!!1 (Brad Divens said it's ok to distibute his musics)
Even if you already have the master (mold), it is still expensive to just press 1 or 10 at a time. Remember that the master/mold is expensive, the pressing machine is also expensive. Evenmore, it is not cost effective to put the master, then turn on the machine to press only a few CD's
Yes, it is cheaper to press CD if you press them in a large quantity at once.
By the way, are you the same GuyMannDude, the metal guitarist? (yeah, I know my music)
Pressing CD & DVD Discs Stampers are used to create replicas by moulding, but there is a lot more to making CDs and DVDs than just moulding.
CD and DVD discs are made by first moulding using stampers produced during mastering and then metallising and lacquering (CD) or bonding (DVD). The steps are:
* Injection moulding of the clear polycarbonate discs using a hydraulic moulding machine
* Metallising to create an aluminium reflective surface
* Lacquering to protect the reflective surface of CDs ready for printing
* Bonding of 2 substrates to produce a DVD disc
* Printing of the disc label on top of the lacquer.
It is more cost effective to burn those music on CD-R's than pressing them on regular CD's.
Usually you have to press lots of CD's so the cost would be minimal. I am guessing that the demand for the music that Smithsonian Folkways Recordings is selling pretty low.
Thus CD-R would be economically feasible and more cost effective.

Yes it's true that Netscape removed the Pop-Up Blocking feature in netscape 7, but it was brought back in Netscape 7.02
One difference is that it has a listing of sites that would be allowed to display pop-ups (pop-up allowed list).
for instance, Netscape 7.01, 7.02, and 7.1 allow pop-ups from:
netscape.com
aol.com
netflix.com
cnn.co
look at your privacy settings.
They can easily be removed.

On Sunday, March 09th 2003, Symantec posted AntiVirus updates on their site as well as the LiveUpdate.
LiveUpdate:

Norton AntiVirus Corp. Edition Sequence Number: 21592

This is peculiar since Symantec does not post any regular updates to their AntiVirus software on the weekends.
They know something, definitely.

I followed their (unfortunately doomed) career from the start.
They're one good band that never get the success they deserved.
I know that The drummer Shannon Larkins is now in GodSmack.
Brad Divens, bass and vocal, is now still working as sound engineer, amongst other.
Anyway, I have the permission from Brad Divens to distribute their musics freely. (sending him some gratitude doesn't hurt either)
Hey, I can burn them on CD-R's, cause they're now cheap......
Thanks for the info.
I'm still contemplating if I'd get a Honda or a Toyota hybrid.

If you can do more advance operation through "BIOS", then the "BIOS" is no longer BASIC.
Therefore, it should no longer be called BIOS (Basic IOS)
Call it Embedded Operating System (EmbOS).
