Only if you shop at best buy where even a mini audio to stereo RCA costs $25-$30. Froogle, ebay etc you can get 6ft for $20 and that is without even putting in a minimal effort.
What does that have to do with anything? This was looking at the development of one particular feature...menu...in the UI. I could be wrong but I would not think that the EU had all the much to say about the Off button.
Not sure if this is a just a coincidence or not, but it looks like Oracle's support system Metalink is unavailable at the moment with the error message:
Urgent: Potential Performance and Login Problems - Please note that due to heaver than normal activity during peak hours, you may experience performance and login related issues. This is a temporary situation that we are working to resolve.
Someone trying to convince consumers that Oracle Support is not quite up to the task perhaps?
Unless you ever want to use more than 4 drives in which case naslite can't help you at all. I have used NasLite OpenFiler, FreeNAS, as well as a full blown Fedora install at various times for file sharing. For me in the end FreeNAS was the way too go.
NasLite was nice, but I had more than 4 drives I wanted to put in so thaty one was a no go as it does not support PCI controller cards. OpenFiler was designed to be a much more robust and wide ranging installation than what I needed. It is based on a full distro and it shows in the number of features, but also in the complexity. The real killing point for me there was the lack of any built in usser support. Any authentication had to go through an authentication server, since it was a full distro I could have set this up on the same box...but I am running this on an internal network and security was not a big thing. FreeNAS on the other hand gave me everything I needed: suport for as many drives as I wanted, basic authentication, and a web interface that does literaly anything I want it to. Since install it has been up without incident with the exception of power outages (UPS a friend of mine got me at discount should help with this) and upgrades.

The difference here is that the license fee they are charging here is explicitly to reimburse the RIAA for music which is pirated by iPod users.
