For an actual ring, it depends on her tastes. My neighbors wife screamed at her husband when he wanted to get her a diamond:) (knowing basically what you pointed out above).
She just got a gold wedding band, to keep him happy (having a ring), but no diamond.
Then, he still wanted to buy her something expensive. She told him to get a small gold piece, I forget what it was called offhand, sorry. (but the value fluctuates with gold prices, rather than losing value drastically i.e. rings, earrings, necklaces, etc).
I can go to my local library, go on one of the computers (the library is running kiosk mode for the non-internet computers) and punch in my #, and get a history of the books I've checked out since they introduced the new cards.
The new cards are plastic with the libraries logo on the front, and on the other side has a bardcode. They swipe the card when I want to check out a book.
Anyway.
The numbers were not given out in random:) I can also, say, add a number to mine (i.e. 12345, 12346) and it will bring up a name, along with their history.
On the flip side, the internet access is unfiltered (yay freedom!), but its been awhile since I've needed to check out a book, so they probably have installed filters by now (damn righteous parents wanting to 'protect their kids' from porn, not like they wont find their damn parents stash, right:P )
There is no way to tag a file with "this file is complete" flag. Even if there was, the RIAA would definately abuse that with their 30-second-silence-looping fucked up songs.
As for generating a "unique code" for each song, to identify it, try making SHA-1 hashes of files. Make a website that hosts a list of "trusted users" and they can personally identify a list of "good"(complete, good sounding) songs.
As for gnutella, this could be implemented fairly, well... effectively.

I've gone as in-depth with it as I'd ever cared to. If you can get a hold of Sajma, and/or you are also a major gnutella player who wants to implement it... consider getting a hold of him.

A good up-and-coming filesystem, that will probably scale better than gnutella, and is much more secure: http://www.filetopia.org
Think of filetopia as a mixture of gnutella, direct connect, and a whole lot of clients into one:) Its prietty neat, just needs more than its current 1000 active member userbase.
Only UPS I've ever seen go was an old TripLite (sp)..
Power went out for a sec, power went back on, yet the "oh my god the power is off" alarm went on. Then, it started to smell bad. Quickly, I disposed of it.
Only monitor I've ever seen go bad.. It was some old no-name one, that needed to warm up. I was watching TV, and it started to smoke.
The damndest thing. I placed it outside my door. I think someome took it:)
Won't they be surprised when it burns their place down. Oh well, its their problem not mine.

I 3 the d-pad on the QD. I never had any trouble playing tony hawk with it, doing combos and tricks and stuff. Very good d-pad.
That 3 was originally a heart using the left... well, whatever the thing that looks like its pointing to the left is.
No way man, the N-Gage is amazing. I just bought an N-Gage QD brand new on a 1-yr contract just last week. Even came with 4 games.
I 3 NGAGE QD!!!
Its a great phone that is alot of fun, and anyone who says otherwise probably DOESNT OWN ONE.
Thats in polymorphic virus category, not overall. Learn to read a table.
Seriously, Nod32 owns... owns, owns, owns.

Kaspersky is pretty good too.
But who in their right mind, that knows *anything* about security, uses Symantec or McAfee anti-virus products?

And if you have a VirusBtn login, the 100% awards are alright indicators of virus scanner quality, but nowhere near as good as av-comparatives IMO.

Oh... DUST DEVIL, my bad. Truly, this is some sort of landmark. Most pointless story ever? Quite possibly.
I have one, my sister has one, my neighbors bought one after I told them about it (they were also looking for one).
There is firmware available to make it Macrovision Free, Region Free, and RCE Immune(sp).
I did it to all three players, no problem.
Best part? They all work very well, and are dirt cheap ($60-80).

2. ???
3. Profit
But isnt bandwith... not free?
Maybe something slipped past me.
First bandwith = free
Then bandwith = $$$
