Never underestimate the network affect! I saw the slimp3 on slashdot many years ago and thought "damn, that's cool".. but I had just got my empeg, so it seemed kinda lacking. A few years later, I don't drive to work anymore, so I don't listen to music in the car so often, and spent more time at home listening via the linux box I kept in stereo cabinet. A friend of mine said "hey, check out this new toy I got" this was my introduction to the squeezebox.. pretty cool, so i got one for my parents to listen to music with. Another move, and I end up in Mountain View, and discover the SD office is near by.. neat, I should get the new box SB2. I ended up getting 2, so I can stream to 2 rooms. I show it to a few co-workers, and a few of them get them. I do a bit of "check it out, it's handy" and a bit of "oh.. play around a bit" I've also sold a couple via softsqueeze demos. -- SuperQ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SuperQ's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2139 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31324 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
