so, um, they're basically just an oversized lego person with a usb extension cord built in.

kinda steep for £32.

ignore this comment.

actually it's the crappy driver support that really slows down things for gamers - nvidia and ati have been slacking a little... although i'd rather blame microsoft.

good, now it's actually useful.

I would absolutely love one of these to improve the audio quality of my g4 mac mini. Pick me!

the command is taking forever on my 1.25ghtz g4...

i wonder how bloated my db was...

@number 3 and 4, if you're using omniweb, you don't need to do anything extra :)

there are other similar styled disk enclosures like this that also include a usb and firewire hub.
I have a micronet minimate (i scratched off the logo...) that sits under my macmini and looks great. everyone thinks i have two macminis. it confuses them.

if you sync up on your original computer, all the things not in your library will be deleted.

so basically, if you go back to your normal (sync'd) computer, you lose everything you just transfered, unless you transfer it off your ipod with another app.

i'd bet yes, but it bothers me.

it's kind of entertaining. because people refer to all mp3 players as ipods, some people call their mp3 players by name. for example
"sorry i was listening to my zen..."
"your what?"

people don't really get it. there are other mp3 players, but you know, you can't just call them by name. just call it a damn mp3 player. the ipod has enough brand recognition to just say "hey i was listening to my ipod sorry." but it just bothers me when other people drop the names of their products.

"oh hey listen to this song on my dell jukebox."
riiight.
