I used to do a radio show a few years ago here in New Orleans, and the station converted all their music, commercials and shows over to a computer system, using some hoity-toity .mp3 format. The end result was that they released all of their weekend and nighttime DJs, for better or worse. Kinda cool stuff, though. -- Joey Kelly < Minister of the Gospel | Linux Consultant > http://joeykelly.net "I may have invented it, but Bill made it famous." --- David Bradley, the IBM employee that invented CTRL-ALT-DEL -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

At the last movie I saw in a theater, the pre movie advert server failed to turn itself off when the previews started. Superimposed over coming attractions was a Winblows 9x desktop. There was not much difference in projection quality. I used to think theaters would continue to have a place in the world: ticket, rather than advertisement, sponsored entertainment superior to what most people would have in their homes. My impression of Winblows remains unchanged. The platform is only good for spam. On Thursday 04 August 2005 08:02 am, Shannon Roddy wrote: >I flipped on the TV and started watching the news.
