Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

Can anyone recommend a good external Blu-Ray drive I can plug into my laptop? Also, is WinXP up to running a Blu-Ray drive? I'm using my old XP desktop as my media machine.

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

Does everyone know you can watch the Apple event thing live? All you need is an OSX or iOS device--just go to Apple.com (Safari only).

It starts in 11 minutes.

...Aaaaand it looks like their servers are overwhelmed.

Ok, I want an Apple Watch.

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

Even if it were something I wanted, it would have to wait until I switched from part-time reading glasses to full-time progressives.

Entertainingly, we were walkn around and found a cafe full I people watching the Apple presentation on a big screen here in Wroclaw!

RIP iPod Classic.

Awww. I've had three generations of those, the 3rd and the last two.

They are pretty out of date at this point, especially with a hard drive (although the iPod Touch and iPhone still can't match the 160GB storage of the Classic.

Woah, really? I love mine so much, maybe I should replace it now while I still can...

Our wings are not tired

Yeah, I have an iPod classic that lives in my car so that I can have a decent chunk of my music with me.

Hey. New board.

There will likely be a 128 GB iPod touch soon (or there is already?) That's not bad. For music-only car living it's hard to beat that classic interface though.

I don't have anywhere close to that much music and tMo lets Spotify stream without data charges now so I don't need it, but I feel for you bigger listeners.

Somebody needs to make a simple mp3 player with a solid interface that reads micro SD cards. How many 64 GB cards would you need for your entire collection ND?
