A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Maria, that is good to know! Thanks. I would LIKE an iPhone, but I will research T-Mobile smartphones now; I'm not wedded to it. I just need something that will let me be a bit more operational on the go for work related stuff...and, you know, life.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

IIRC, B&N is going to be announcing their own tablet sometime this week, right?

“Not dead yet!”

Poking head in to ask for help in extracting video from a disc so it can be saved as a file for uploading. This isn't a commercial disc-- it's just the disc I had recorded at my ballroom dance competition. I've been trying to use VLC, but none of the streaming/saving formats are allowing me to open it. (I'm on a Mac, btw) Any suggestions?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Handbrake.

“Not dead yet!”

Yeah, I'm at a complete loss. I'm so non-intuitive when it comes to this stuff. I've downloaded Handbrake- I'm flailing a bit, trying to figure out what next.

::headdesk::

ETA Nebber mind. I somehow figured it out.
