Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Am I the only one who still has a working non- click-wheel iPod? No one seems to carry skins for these (and haven't for at least a year).

I do! I think I got it only a few months before the click-wheel came out. It's just over 2 years old now. Which isn't/shouldn't be that old!!

Ann, that's a ferret.

Then I guess I have a non-click-wheel iPod, too. Mine turns 3 this summer.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Me too, in that case.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Wow, prying apart a Mac Mini is so much easier that I thought....

Our wings are not tired

My 30 GB iPod is not a click wheel.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Am I the only one who still has a working non- click-wheel iPod?
I did. Until I took it with me to take a bath a few months ago. It slipped. And drowned.

It's run, not walk. Also? nonslip case. not bare iPod cause they are slickery.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

You know, I just hit the year mark this month with my 6GB pink mini, and I really have no idea how to listen to music any other way now. It's great--except I've *just* started having problems with it now that the warranty's expired. And it has to last at least another year, because I know I'm not going to be in any position to purchase another one while I'm away. Sigh. Stupid non-long-lasting new ones.

Random question--any of y'all have an old iBook or something that you want to sell? My boss was asking if I knew anyone who is getting rid of a laptop, as his wife and daughter are going to Africa for a month, and theirs just died, but they don't want to buy a *new* one just to take (I think they're holding out for him to get them one of the new intel ones, when they get back).

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Has Google been acting strange for anyone else today? Earlier I got a 404 searching for something (can't remember), and just now I got a weird "Your query looks like something a robot would ask for. Are you a real person???" page searching for "sudoku." (Since I couldn't see the CAPCHA image they wanted me to type, I just searched for the same thing again in my toolbar, and it worked normally.)
