  1. Re:this is BAD in my opinion on Netscape Reborn? · · Score: 1

    > Firefox was born from the Ashes of Netscape

    Actually "Phoenix/Firebird" was born from the ashes, but had to change it's name to Firefox because of another existing OSS project. Bit you probably already knew that...

  2. Re:Whewt, yet another! on New Apple iPod with Photo Capabilities · · Score: 2, Informative

    It can display album art, according to http://www.apple.com/ipodphoto/ "...And did we mention that iTunes 4.7 also autosyncs Album Art? It's true. The Album Art downloaded when you purchase music from the iTunes Music Store is transferred to iPod Photo along with the music. So while iPod Photo plays your tunes, you can enjoy the Album Art -- in color, of course -- on the Now Playing screen."

  3. Re:First?!? on Netscape Turns 10 · · Score: 1

    MMMM...1993. That's when I ran Netscape 0.96b on a Mac IIsi with 8 MB RAM and System 7.1. Blew me away, made me quit Gopher, get out of Mechanical Engineering and pursue web surfing, among other things...

  4. Re:What is up with the stupid MP3 Players? on Review of the new Dell Axim X50s · · Score: 1

    I use Pocket Music, http://www.pocketmind.com/pmfp.htm/ with my X30 for OGG and MP3 playback. After adding a 1 GB SD card I'm able to play a good set of tunes while still being able to do all the other things mentioned in the parent. In addition, I turn on WIFI and use the PocketMusic app to pickup stations like KEXP Seattle, etc. Very nice feature.

  5. Re:Windows security alerts on Windows XP SP2 In Release · · Score: 1

    > Anyone know how to disable the security alerts icon from the systray? I even tried to kill the process and it relaunches itself...

    From the "Automatic Updates" tab of the System Control Panel.
