Wait... if you're already carrying something around (KNOPPIX), why not just carry around a 1GB keychain drive instead? They're smaller than a CD, even.
Not really *that* difficult. First item on their FAQ...
1.1) What is PostgreSQL? How is it pronounced?
PostgreSQL is pronounced Post-Gres-Q-L. An audio file is available at http://www.postgresql.org/postgresql.mp3 for those would like to hear the pronunciation.
The audio files *are* retrievable off of the iPod. The files are stored in a hidden folder called iPod_Control. Apple further tries to secure this folder by hard-coding Finder not to display any subfolder of iPod_Control, but it is still trivial to access the folder through the Terminal.
Because this was designed to test various codecs at 128Kbps. You can't make flac do 128Kbps. Besides, flac, being lossless, sounds exactly the same as the source media, so what's the point of testing how it sounds?
Or they could print out that same information onto a couple sheets of paper and thumb-tack them to the door. Using a semacode for this sort of application seems like grossly over-engineering a simple problem.
Even when you're not using the shopping cart, they aggregate your credit card charges. Any purchases you make within 24 hours or so goes on the same credit card charge.
I have a 2x867 G4, a 2x1000 G4, a lab of eMacs, and a few iMacs, none of which exhibit the problems in 10.2.8. It seems the 10.2.8 troubles aren't as clear-cut as "it breaks on XYZ product line". I *have* heard that certain models of the G4s have issues though, for instance the "Gigabit Ethernet" model.
In the same breath, I absolutely agree that Apple needs to QA these better. An operating system release needs to be solid for Apple to continue receiving the trust they do from their users.

Fast User Switching by Win+L seems pretty graceful to me.
WINE stands for "Wine Is Not an Emulator." You tell me. :-)

It would be a control codec, then. That being the case, you might as well just use the actual source media.

Typo. The standard compiler is 'mcs'.
C'mon kids, at least try here instead of commenting over and over again in disbelief.
A Google search for "web browser" WITH quotes gives Internet Explorer as the third hit.
A Google search for web browser WITHOUT the quotes doesn't list Internet Explorer at all.
So you're both right.
