Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Apparntly you have to answer the questions here [link] to find out if you qualify.

I had to search google for "AT&T $10 DSL Plan" and wade a bit.

there was even an AT&T statement that "no one wants the $10 plan"

ha! it's so secret, you can't call to find out about it, but it's also not available on their website. it's brilliant marketing!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh. I thought it was so secret we were going to have to hold DCJ down and beat it out of him.

Does anyone have a favorite digital media server they could recommend?

I have about 3000 DVDs at work taking up way too much space (currently in about 15 albums) and would love to be able to ingest them onto a networked server instead.

[eta: these are screeners, not commercial DVDs, so there are no extras or special features or anything that we'd need the actual discs for. Just a bunch of TV shows and outs reels. We would need the ability to pull them into FCP to create clips from.]
