I think the blog post on Windows Now is mis-interpreting the EULA (possibly intentionally). I believe it is referring to making ISOs of the Vista installation DVD.
My '87 CRX Si regularly averages about what it was rated for highway mileage. Thats for all of my driving, not just a long trip. It was rated 32/36 and I get 35-37mpg.
I also have an Oppo and I have found it to be better than PureVideo. In fact when I do watch DVDs on my PC I often disable PureVideo because it gets so confused on some interlaced DVDs that it makes things look worse.
Both of my DVD players will play divx/xvid as well, and they are both limited to 480p. One can do 720x480 and the other 640x480 maximum resolution. AFAIK there are no divx players that can handle HD right now.
The purpose of this software seems to be only to save a complete webpage as-is, while PDF can be used for any type of document and its main purpose is to preserve the look and layout of the original.
I think there must have been something wrong with that Civic. Honda's VTEC system relies purely on RPMs to determine when to switch the cam. At least it used to back in the '90s, it may be more sophisticated now.
Of course normal Windows NT/2k/XP users can't access others' files, but in pre-XP Windows the primary user normally configures administrative privileges for himself (or administrating the machine would be hell), and many I know continue to do just that in XP although they have fast user switching... I guess they are used to it.
Personally I still use many older programs that like to be able to write to their installed directories, under Program Files.. makes it a pain to use them as a normal user.
For example, try opening up two IE windows to Slashdot, one on top of the other. Resizing the top window will cause the bottom window blank --- for several seconds if you do it at the right speed.
There is absolutely no blanking on my machine in XP. Its drawing so fast I don't even see a flicker in the lower app. There is some flickering in the scrollbars of the top window, though.
Try increasing your gaming resolutions, or using antialiasing. A 9500 pro can not play every game with the details maxed at 1600x1200, or even 1280x960. With antialiasing, drop it down another resolution or two.
It plays fine in ffdshow also, which means it should be fine in mplayer on Linux. Man, is that resolution nasty though. For the bitrate they could have done much better.

There are many cards that fill your requirements, provided you have a PCI Express motherboard. The first one I would look at is the Nvidia 7600GT.

HDDs will be at 1TB next year.
What exactly is 'next gen' about this device anyway?

At the speed I am getting on a download the DVD would be here first.

In NB I believe it is illegal to even possess a radar detector.

A string of athlons? I bet they wouldn't glow for very long.
so you are converting a lossy format to lossless to lossy? what is the point of that?
I don't know, but there seems to be an article about it on slashdot weekly.
Not bad, but definitely limited in features compared to most windows players, such as sasami2k and zoomplayer.
