    Best mp3 player under $350

    I think they mean that they will use it to store files on (like a flash drive) rather than play music. I use mine for a bit of both, take files to and from school - but also for the music.

    You All Must Get Firefox.

    I dont think firefox will out run IE for a while - since IE is included with Windows, and Firefox is not included with any operating system (that I know of). The new anti-spyware thing from microsoft claims firefox is spyware - or so ive heard and it urges you to delete it ASAP - so I think IE...

    Google operating system?

    Going back to the original topic - I found this on slashdot (http://slashdot.org) galdur writes "Microsoft Watch reports Marc Lucovsky, one of Microsoft's key Windows architects has defected to Google. His confidence in Microsoft's ability to ship software seems to have waned, too. Some...

    Google operating system?

    i'm sure it wont be far away at all!! Google cars?? Google DVD drives??? Who knows what will be next! I think Google have found the sweet spot, and are going to keep on using it to its full potential for as long as viably possible.

    You All Must Get Firefox.

    lol.. so true, it'd just be good if they used css code that seems standard and allowed firefox to pass it. i spent a good few hours working on the drop downs, and it all went to waste!! - still looks alright though, and the clients are still happy.

    WinPLOSION

    another REALLY cool tweak you might wanna try is Sphere XP http://www.hamar.sk/sphere/ As long as you know the controls on how to use it, its really easy to use - and great to show off to your friends. I got a whole heap of kids at school hooked on it, and although they only use it to muck...

    You All Must Get Firefox.

    I love firefox, except for two things from a site designers point of view: 1. Fonts are different sizes to that of IE, and some other browsers - which is sorta expected, but a real pain when the CSS coding i use makes sites i design look completely different in Firefox than it does in IE. 2...

    Linux

    Best mp3 player under $350

    I had some major problems with my last creative mp3 player. Ive now moved to an iPod. The hdd in my muvo2 died once, and I got the player replaced under warranty, I've still got my 2nd one - but its slow and dosn't like me using it for large files as a USB disk drive. Just regarding quality -...

    HDD size

    Yeah, either theyve got a broadband connection or they have alot of spare time. I can understand people who have a large music collection filling space easily, but not the general user... or someone who loves porn.

    Linux

    Somthing like fedora core (http://fedora.redhat.com) without alot of the development and server packages will be alright. As with most things, only install stuff that you need, Windows likes to install alot of additional stuff that you may never use, and this is true with linux - but Linux more...

    my msn messenger wont open sometimes :(

    it should have forced you to update MSN recently, as microsoft are preparing to move to MSN 7.0. You need to have 6.2 to connect as far as i know. Trillian is good, and if your on linux or mac .. Amsn is good also.

    Wireless

    Windows SP2 includes some wireless stuff... havent checked it out though, but it makes it alot easier to set up stuff. If you know what you are doing, security shouldnt be a problem.

    Right Clicking to open a new window

    in Win2k (and maybe win XP im ont sure) the administrator can stop you from right clicking! so if your on a network .. and someone in your house has admin access and a bit of PC knowledge, they may have disabled right click!!!

    which notebook rand is the best

    I'll let you know if this occours on my new powerbook - but I wont be using it much for word processing, so it wont affect me too much. I'm mainly getting mine for video and music editing and creating.
