  • Many of MS's images are from Getty (see /.). Heck, I also know many companies buy pictures (of their customers, among others) from Getty as well. What's new?
    in MSFT posts "reverse switcher" story. Comment by klinux October 2002
  • Minor correction - iPod uses a Toshiba 1.8", not a 1.7", drive. Right now Toshiba is the only mass producer of that drive. When other manufacturers get into that market, we can expect to see, hopefully, cheaper iPods and other more compellin produ…
    in iPod vs. Zen Comment by klinux October 2002
  • No, it is a PC-only device for now. Whether it will go fully cross-platform like iPod did, who knows? In the meantime, perhaps it will mount like a drive so the files can be trasnferred manually.

  • Have you considered just getting it from Dell? Yes, I know there are people out there who have bad personal experiences with Dell but you are starting a commercial operation here. Would the supplier of your PC be able to give you any warranty and …
