hilarious, this is sublime... the first guy says they glaze over when told how it works, so the second guy says "no! don't tell them how it works, show them" so they get all into it and then at THAT POINT say, "pft, your dumbass can't handle the truth!" hilarious! that short lil exchange more than any other goes to PROVE that the SB needs, MUST, get a virtual device driver for differing operating systems, starting with XP since its the major one. if i can't do dvd sync'd to video, fine, but i would love using winamp to power my SB, and i'm not alone. many people out there want to use the hardware, but want to use their software of choice with it, not some amalgem of mysql, browser, scanner, that oh by the way, can't rip, can't edit, etc... its such a slam dunk, WHY isn't anyone at SD doing it? why are they forcing all of us to use FREE software? wouldn't their hardware be better served by letting any software use it? -- MrSinatra www.LION-Radio.org Using: Squeezebox2 w/SS 6.5.1 (beta!?) - Win XP Pro SP2 - 3.2ghz / 2gig ram ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 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
