I think the Apple iPod power adapter is _very_ well designed. I have a 2nd-gen iPod (20Gig) and the adapter is so thin, it only takes one power-strip slot, and the prongs fold for easy storage.
Also, when I'm travelling, I take a simple 1/8" to RCA cable -- most hotel TVs have RCA inputs on the back, if not the front, and I plug my iPod in there.
BTW, I never use the "brick" for listening -- that's the advantage of having a fricken 10 hour battery!
Agent Smith, I mean Elrond: "Well, Mr. Baggins. As you can see, we've had our eye on you for quite some time now."
"How about you take this Ring, and go deep into Mordor?"
Neo, I mean Frodo: "Wow. That sounds like a really good deal. But I've got a better idea. Why don't you take the Ring... and I'll give you the finger... and I'll go back to the Shire!"
Because Netscape / Mozilla don't do transparent.PNG yet. Check it for yourself:

Take a look at that page with both Netscape and IE5. I had to switch _back_ to.GIF to make it work right, and Microsoft is the one doing the standard right?
I'm running a software IDE raid on my box, Pentium 233 MMX, and it runs fine, if a little slow. Using the default 2 channels built into the motherboard, I have PriMaster as the boot drive and the PriSlave+SecMaster+SecSlave as the Raid5. I'm sure it would be faster with separate controllers / cables for each drive, but I was looking for redundancy, not speed.
Only one small problem with this... if that same software CAN be sold for $100, then when it's sold for $500 is the software company making $400 in EXTRA PROFIT?
If so, then all the people (companies) who are buying the software are obviously getting ripped off to begin with.
The argument that 'companies make money from the software and individual users don't' doesn't hold water either. What's to prevent an individual businessman from purchasing the 'home' version of the software, and then using it at work, or better yet, in his 'home office' at his house? Is he then 'pirating' the software, even though he paid for it?
(OFFTOPIC) Personally, I think charging companies more money than individuals for ANYTHING is stupid. Essentially that's what phone companies do (in Texas anyway) a home phone line is $10 and a business phone line is $30. Does that line cost the phone company any more? Certainly not. As a matter of fact, since it's a business line, it probably gets used less, i.e. 8a-5p, instead of all day and all night, like some phone lines I know. (/OFFTOPIC)

What does this say about how gullible people are, just because it's the "InterWeb".

Laugh, it's funny.
But wouldn't that be a great place to start? With people that have had their driving priveledges removed?
That way, if the computer / car crashes, we could always say "Oh well, no big deal... that guy was a known drunk anyway!"

Huh? The solution the previous poster is describing is _inherently_ wireless.
:-)
I don't see the problem.
It lets you do AMAZING THINGS like oh, change properties on multiple users at once... and stuff. Ya know, like you could in frickin' NT, 10 years ago.
Thanks, Bill.
If you haven't bought 2000 -- skip it, most of our customers that have 2000 want 2k3, but now have to purchase all new CALs...
Again, thanks, Bill.
Probably because it sucks down all your CPU speed when you run the test. The faster your CPU, the faster the software RAID.
The hardware raid controllers have limited clock speeds and less RAM than your computer, so they're slower.

Posers. XMMS works fine for me.
If it had AA fonts under X, it'd be closer to perfect. For now, I use konq.
At least his face is covered... what have _you_ done lately?
Wow.
I thought Romeo must die would have been a decent movie _without_ the cheezy X-Ray effects.
Like Jet Li needs crappy effects to sell the fact that he's a bad-ass!

KIM, from Kunani.com has PGP. Haven't used it, but... http://www.kunani.com
Add to that it only syncs about 90% of the time without a soft reset...
Add to that Handspring support says that's normal!
Bummer, dude.

22khz ought to be good enuff for an on hold solution, though... what kind of phones are you using? :-)

I wish that since 99.9 percent of the piracy happens OVERSEAS we wouldn't freaking have to hear about it anymore.
We're all switching to free (as in beer) software ANYWAYS, so M$ needs to shut the hell up.
Sorry if this comes off childish, I'm tired of hearing it.
P.S. I work for a Microsoft Solutions Provider, and get all my Microsoft Software provided free of charge. So don't bother to tell me I'm pirating.
