ad trackers on a web site, resulting in really fast load times.

My question is how do stories like this find its way to news media? Do
people just go "hey something very interesting happens in our lives.

2005/5/11-12 [Consumer/Audio, Computer/HW/Drives] UID:37625 Activity:nil | 5/11 I'd like to be able to use my mp3 player as a rescue os disk as well.

as long as I store all of the music on the first vfat partition. I'd
like to be able to either install linux onto the HD or store various
ISO images on the HD and have it boot from it, with menu, so I can
can select different images. Anyone know of such method?

"keychain" wireless service which connects you to your "personal"
Mp3 archive. I read an article about apple and how they should
make the attached product. But who want video???? I want music
