I never ever liked switching to mysb... avoided it. It was only necessary when the software somehow broke.

Re: [slim] The Forum's Old Days on Christmas Morning
It's not that he doesn't think Europeans don't use that expression, it's just that he's very nuanced about his own well-wishing. For his own private reasons, he wants Europeans to have a happy Christmas, while he wants everyone else to have a merry Christmas. -- Mitch!!! http://blog.mitcharf.com/ "A man said to the universe: 'Sir, I exist!'

Re: [slim] The Forum's Old Days on Christmas Morning
Oh yes mysqueezebox.com did collapse ever Xmas :) , but I thought it was down to an excess of existing users suddenly using thier device ( the capacity of services and websites seems to design at some avarage load and not every user 24/7 ) and that the support staff was on Holliday so the slightest issue brought everything down Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.

[slim] The Forum's Old Days on Christmas Morning
Fondly recalling the old days where Christmas morning would create a flurry of new member postings on the forum asking some version of "how do i make this thing work?" And there was the usual "squeezenetwork (mysqueezebox.com)" outages due to the influx of new users around this time.
