    ...That, is most original. Not to mention a blast from the past, mingled with present/future tech.

    ..but, Hitachi...of all people. lmfao.

    That song's catchy.

    I think the point isn't that you'll get more songs on your computer, but that you'll be able to have songs in CD quality (i.e.FLAC) instead of MP3s.

    Hey that reminds me of that cartoon about bills. "I'm just a bill, yes i'm only a bill, and i'm sitting on capital hill."

    yeah, that "bit" fellow is a nearly perfect rip off of the 'bill' character from that sumpsons cartoon within a cartoon. which was prolly a rip of something as well


    all in all amazingly fantastically awesome, and a catchy song too!

    as was pointed out.

    Yes it is the Nerd Version of School House Rock (that is where the bill song and many other greats come from)

    Oh, and who can fill up that much space?

    Any of us. a good number of you should remember when HDDs just started regularly having a few gigs in them.

    now multiple hundred is considered adequet.

    nah the real idea should not be more songs on a MP3 player. It should be batteries...

    Iam just saying that strapping your computer to your waist with ductape and play musik and NS on it...

    My ductape sense is tingerling!

    ps. ductape can save everything AND everyone! Got a problem with your headset? DUCTAP'D! got a problem with your girlfriend? DUCTAP'D!


    ...mm... dating...
