I am using commercial in dash players now and they all suck, including the $1000 one in the Lincoln. You spent $1000 to get a music player in your car? Really? Gosh, I just use a $10 cable to plug an iPhone or iPod into the car stereo. I guess that Vega you have doesn't have a factory sound system with an MP3 player, 6 pack CD, Nav and blue tooth to your phone. Take a ride in your wife's car sometime. A grand is really not much for the entertainment system upgrade on a nice car. If I was an Apple guy I would say it was free since it was bundled in the price of a trim package in the Lincoln but that unit was $900 and change if you put it in your F150. Can you talk to your Ipod (and does it listen?). Does it mute and switch over to the phone on command or when you have an incoming call? Does it bluetooth to your smart phone so you can listen to web casts? The wife's LS460 has the Mark Levinson sound system in it. Not cheap, but awesome. Can it do this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gc_LWWgPi0E No, but my Kawi with the slip on exhaust pipe (shorty) would:) |

No, he might have gone to a conference.... like everyone else but I doubt it cause he lied that time about getting the upgrade three weeks before the real release... It isn't surprising that you apparently think the only way to become a Microsoft beta tester was to attend a conference. There were and I presume still are many ways and within beta testing, there were groups testing different aspects of distros and sometimes at difference times. The "real release."

What a laugh that is. I think Scott sometimes has difficulty accepting anything that is outside of his personal sphere of knowledge or experience. He seems to think that riding a 850+ lb Harley UltraClassic or Honda Goldwing is the same as riding a modern cafe' racer or dirt bike. We slow down to take sharp turns and corners. :-) |

He had a friend who attended a conference... :) I don't know anything about the sort of dirt bike racing his kid does, other than it seems a terrific way for kids to sustain spinal column injuries for no good reason. I do like the Isle of Man motorcycle races, which are also dangerous, of course, but they're more appealing to me. I also like to watch flat track motorcycle racing. -- Sarah Palin is watching the Sochi Olympic Games from the front porch of her house. |

If you read my posts, I acutally posted last night after some research that you guys are probably right... But of course if you acknowledge that post, you can't troll and feel all superior.. |
