Porting mobile numbers in the UK takes something crazy like 3 weeks.
It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Oh, I'm told it used to take a few days, but now only takes a few hours...can anyone confirm?

I porter my number the first day you were allowed to a few years ago and it was done in 24 hours.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Grr. Can't work out if I should settle for a DVI-VGA adapter for the cheap Linux box, or if I want to not make it that cheap a box and upgrade the card.
What I really really want is a second flatscreen monitor, either to be the monitor for that one (DVI switch boxes are too expensive) or a dual for my primary machine.
If when I go into Display Settings it shows me a greyed out secondary monitor, does it mean my card's capable? I only have the one DVI port on the back. Or does XP just do that now?
eta: wait-if my LCD monitor has a DVI and a d-sub port, does that mean I can connect two computers to it and switch back and forth using the input selector on the monitor? I'd lose out on using audio from the secondary machine, but that's no biggie. Of course I need to track down a d-sub cable, but still...

Mostly lurking...
Is there some freeware that can break audio files into pieces? Or, could someone suggest one to buy that's not terribly expensive. I need this for my senior thesis/oral history project.

The last time I ported my cell #, it was done before I left the store. I was very impressed!

Okay, I have a possibly stupid question. How do I get pictures & videos off my Treo and onto my Mac?
I have Missing Sync & a USB connection. Some of the pics are on the SD memory card.
[eta: Okay, figured out how to do it with Bluetooth. So slow!]

Audacity is free and does all that and more. [link]

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
I second Audacity.
