    what about my car's cd player, it's basically a computer cd-rom (an aiwa cdc-mp3), since it does play mp3's? I'd be pissed if this ever happened to any cd i bought. But I also listen to autechre and the like, which always sounds like clicks and pops :)

  22. DVD support on Bill Gates's email - about Linux · · Score: 1
    "Let me dwell a little longer on the topic of corporate acceptance. Years ago, the "problem" with Linux was a lack of hardware drivers. Today, that problem still exists, and even though many people seem to think otherwise, I've yet to hear reports of a working, let alone robust DVD player for this "desktop" operating system. I hear horror stories about incompatible and difficult to configure 3D accelerators. Linux has not gotten to the point where you can walk into CompUSA and grab something off the shelf and expect it to work in any form with the OS. This is not a new story, but it is downplayed more today. I can not pretend that the Linux kernel has not improved, but it has not improved at the rate that Torvalds and his bunch of merry men pretend it has, and that's largely due to companies that will not release hardware programming information. They aren't interested in Open Source, and they don't want to be troubled by it."
    I'm sorry billy, but my dvd player in your newest operating system Windows 2000. Yes it is a driver issue, just like linux has the driver issue. Another thing, why the hell don't you include ASPI drivers in Win2000?
