I've been saying this for a while now... if XM were to team up with Apple, it would be an unbeatable combination. An iPod w/ XM receiver built in, streaming XM via iTunes (instead of the popup flash/wmp solution they have now), the ability to "Buy this song now!" via iTMS while you're listening to it on the streaming station. Hell, even if you're on the go and hear a song you like on your iPod/XM device, have a "Buy this song next time the iPod is docked" option.
But no, they went with Dell, and decided to put out their own device (which I'm still going to buy). Oh well, maybe next time.
Looks like he beat me to it. Oh well, mine will have multiple hard drives as well as two DVD drives (original M$ drive to play games and standard $40 drive to play divx on cdr).
UPN was supposed to pick up Family Guy too, but it never happened. Too bad, FG RULES! Guess I'll just have to wait for the FG 3 season box set;).//chris
I just got a
Koss Mini DVD Player for $49 and it is amazing. It plays DVD/VCD/SVCD/MP3/JPEG and is both region and macrovision free. It also lets you skip past that annoying FBI warning;)
Some people say it gets too hot, but that is due to a crappy AC adapter. Just buy a better one and you are all set.

That number is probably due to all the dumbies buying those $2000 plasma screens from Gateway.
and it came out REALLY nice... I'll post some pics if I ever get around to taking them.

I thought that the short lived 'Action' was an amazing satire of the Hollywood scene...except it wasnt a satire.
Jay Mohr was hilarious in that show. I think they replay the original eps on FX (but I'm not positive).
