  • Hell, my old username (torifile) is 22nd and I haven't posted with that name in 2 months. Combine this one and that one and I'd be over 3500 posts. Damn.

  • AFAIK, these freebies are only available for a limited time. It sucks too because I forgot to keep my copy of stick brain when I formatted and installed Panther. Now it's gone.

  • I know Windows. I'm confident that I could fix any software problem that came along. I can figure out how to get hardware working too. I'm not computer illiterate. I paid more for my powerbook anyway. I CHOSE to use a Mac. Not out of not knowing…

  • What pisses me off about this whole thing more than anything else is the word that they're trying to use to justify it: security. In the name of "security" we're going to keep other countries out of the bidding. That's complete and utter bullshit…

  • Apple can't PAY for this kind of publicity. It's great. I don't know if RS is as trend-setting as it was back in the day (late '90s), but if it's anywhere near as influential, this is another nail in the coffin of the also-rans in the online music/m…
