Bottom line... Get an Ipod if you want to have something that is a social status symbol, like white wall tires. If you want a cheaper but probably more capable and better built player, go with a Zune or whatever they're trying to pitch against the Ipod these days. Furthermore, when you say "Ipod," even the old lady down the street knows what you're talking about, meaning it fits extremely well into any social situation. Is that worth the price difference? Perhaps not. All of you already knew this, but I want to emphasize that you arent "succumbing to the beast," or whatever some people may want you to think if you purchase an Ipod. It was marketed well, and apple seemed to bowl a strike on the Ipod. If the company was smart enough to get it into the hands of millions of individuals, they obviously have done something right, and it may very well be worth the extra cost. As an alternative I suggest looking on a mass retailing site like Amazon to find previous generation Ipods. You will find them significantly cheaper and still brand new there, all with warranties. I own a 4th generation ipod, it works extremely well. I understand that I could have gotten a slightly larger hard-drive for the same price with a different brand. However, presented with the same situation I would still go with the Ipod. Good luck with the search.

From my understanding, Microsoft has a backward licensing. IE. if you own Windows XP you can legally use any prior version of windows in it's place, excluding Windows 2000, without buying it.

C++ is basically object oriented C with a few added commands. Mainly the use of cin and cout, instead of printf and scanf. If you know C++ you know C. 90% of the widely used programming languages are based off of it

Processor and mem prices are high right now, wait a month or two.

Public or Private? Pubs tend to be about twice as expensive.

Well... no more dangerous than being in front of the router, which he was before.

Considering we sit inside a vehicle everyday that is much more likely to kill us than this asteriod, keeps my mind at ease.

excuse me...

open the proper ports for aim, or just set yourself as DMZ

My college caps you at 1k up and 1k down if you pass a 200mb upload per day limit. But other than that the 3 T3 lines coming into our building are nice. Im living in the second largest non military dorm in the world.

you might need a custom driveshaft. Depending on how much clearance your yolk has to the transfercase/transmission (whichever your truck has) and differential. If you have jack stands you could easily do this job yourself.

Run a virus scan.

Have you tried an analog headset instead of a digital headset?

your only alternative there is to buy a second ip from your isp and buy a hub, but that would be absurd considering you already have a router and you just need to read the manual and figure it out. Youll be glad you did.

I liked the emphasis with the new smilies.

Did anyone else find it difficult to read the captions about each tool.
