That "cd god" is awsome:) I'll have to send that to my father - he laughed about the "...food in can" one for close to an hour!
I take offense to the Solaris blasphemy though!;)
You forgot my two favorite unix commands:
"man mount"
and
> cat "food in can"
Cat can't open food in can!

My old HDs always end up at the shooting range for target practice. There is nothing quite like the feeling of filling an old 2 gig seagate full of lead;) Very satisfying!
I've got a couple on my desk at work with holes strait through. No one will EVER recover my data - or rifle through my stuff;)
I work with video all day long. Hopefully they won't have to compress the video at all - even if they do it should be with WMV or MPEG-4 and the artifacts aren't nearly as bad....
Even with artifacts I think it's a worthy trade for a full 30 frames/second. When my job first taught me how to spot artifacts and digital video B/S, TV/Movies at home started to look terriable.
I decided to go see a movie and I was excited because it was going to be 100% artifact free. What I had forgot was that Film is only 25 frames a second !!
All I could see for the first 15 mins was this terrible flicker:( Same deal with PAL TV (50Hz). I hear that some people notice the flicker worse than others, but it honestly drives me insane.
Bottom line: I'd much rather have a full 60Hz with light compression artifacts than film at 50Hz.

You know, at first I thought the name was stupid but now I'm not so sure. Seeing you use it like that somehow it makes more sense!
