  • Why not have the second section at a different time of the day? This way students can choose the time that best suits them. I didn't begin paying attention to who was teaching my classes until I was taking third-year courses. But then there wer…
  • If it bothers you, you should definitely send it in. Losing your computer for 10 days is worth relieving the itch in the back of your head that your brand-new computer has a defect. You'll miss your computer, I'm sure, but I predict that you'll su…

  • On the "Advanced" tab of preferences, change the default location for media files to the new drive, choose "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library," but de-select "keep iTunes music folder orgranised." This ought to do what you wa…
  • When Mozilla adds CD ripping, I'll have to give this a try. Who doesn't love Mozilla? And, hopefully, Songbird won't be as "sluggish" as iTunes is on the PC (which is the only thing about iTunes that I don't like).

  • Speaking of the proper use of language at college, the worst is receiving emails from students. I swear that most of them only know how to write txt msgs. ~shudder~ And, no, sequitur, there is no way in hell that I'll speak to them in their "own…
  • Music can be copied onto the iPod in one direction only. There are tools to do the reverse if you insist on doing so (use google to find these if you want them). Let me take the time to mention that the spellings of the products that you list ar…
  • I'm sure that I'm not the only one, but I can't understand what you're trying to do. If you want to delete certain episodes of a podcast, just select the ones that you want to delete and press the 'delete' key on your keyboard. Oh, perhaps are y…
  • I can't speak for the new iPods, but I have a 3Gen iPod Nano whose (apparent) capacity is 8GB. The problem that you have to keep in mind is that this means that the iPod has 8,000,000,000 bytes of data storage, yet when the computer adds up the amo…

  • The time has just reverted back to the correct time. I bet the same thing happens next year, and that this is a bug in the code dealing with the end of DST. I'm certainly glad that this has "sorted" itself out.
  • Yes: annoying. Maybe you should make a poll for this topic. It's like people saying that they're switching to the MAC. ~grating teeth~
