Re: MD: Panasonic's first MDLP portable
You had zero problems, I had 100% problems until JT posted a working link. Well I guess one of us so insanely skilled that he can copy and paste better then the other guy, and the other one was just helpless. Must be that 6 months of college I attended...I can't belive you just sat there wondering what the picture was even though the URL was RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF YOU, until someone sent you a "correct" version. You see, there are published standards for listing URLs in text documents like mail messages. No, there are stadards for HYPERLINKS. A URL is not always a link. So what if it wrapped to the next line? Copy *both* lines! The fact that you couldn't go to this URL even though it was RIGHT THERE ON THE SCREEN doesn't say a lot for your problem solving abilities, which in itself is fine, but the fact that you continue to bitch to the list about the guy that took time out of his day to post the link in the first place, when your poor conflict resolution abilities are to blame is pretty sad. Leon has posted several links here, and semi-translated/answered questions for the Japanese language ones. Personaly I appreciate it far too much to complain because word wrap messed up (but only slightly) his latest link.

A URL is not always a link. So what if it wrapped to the next line? Copy *both* lines! There are standards for including a URL in a text email message. Rat posted one -- using URL: -- but the more common (and preferred, IMHO) is to use around the URL. In most modern PC email clients, and in any Macintosh-standard application that uses text services, the brackets delineate the beginning and end of the URL, so that even if there are hard returns/line characters in the middle, the URL will "work" without having to manually cut and paste to fix it. The fact that you couldn't go to this URL even though it was RIGHT THERE ON THE SCREEN doesn't say a lot for your problem solving abilities, which in itself is fine, but the fact that you continue to bitch to the list about the guy that took time out of his day to post the link in the first place, when your poor conflict resolution abilities are to blame is pretty sad. There is no need to make personal attacks. Rat was just asking that URLs be posted in a standardized way. I agree that Leon has made many useful posts -- Rat's request does not imply otherwise. Sure anyone could take the time to manually splice together the various parts of the URL (I did, in fact LOL). But in the future, I think Rat's request is a good one -- if people could enclose URLs with brackets like this: http://www.cnn.com it will make the list more user-friendly with *minimal* effort. And that should make everyone happy, right? ;) - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The link got broken by text wrap.

Re: MD: Panasonic's first MDLP portable
It's not titanium. Titanium is more expensive to make. Although Panasonic doesn't say, I would assume that magnesium alloy is used to achieve the MJ78's size and weight (62g by itself). It doesn't have titanium written on the face either :-) Leon on 3/15/01 3:07 PM, Chad Gombosi at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: http://www.matsushita.co.jp/corp/news/official.data/data.dir/jn010315-1/jn01 | 0315-1-1.jpg Not found. Check your cut-n-paste, please. Works fine for me, check *your* cut and paste. btw, even though it's titanium, it isn't that cool looking. Probably because of the big word, "Titanium" written on the face. That's pretty tacky. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: MD: Panasonic's first MDLP portable
I think you're thinking of the new Aiwa mentioned earlier. THe Panasonic just has 'Panasonic' written on it in big letters, and I believe it's the standard aluminum, not titanium, though I can't read Japanese to be sure. http://www.matsushita.co.jp/corp/news/official.data/data.dir/jn010315-1/jn01 | 0315-1-1.jpg Woops, oh yeah.

I'm no computer web God and I had zero problem whatsoever getting it to work the first time. Please drop it. And please drop the whole AOL thing too. Anyone who uses AOL has obviously decided to ignore the tons of advice out there saying to not use it (much of the time from ex-users) and has therefore dug their own hole. I don't see why we should have the MD mailing list turned into tech support that AOL should provide.
