Trade in your old CDs for an iPod

 

iPod Video

 

Millennium Music has a nice deal for those of you with huge piles of dusty old CDs still lying around in the house. They want all your old CDs and in return, they’ll give you a brand new iPod!

 

Not just any CD mind you, just in case you are already having the idea of giving them your school choir’s album. But their quality criteria is fairly reasonable.

 

45 CDs - 0.5GB iPod Shuffle

65 CDs - 1GB iPod Shuffle

85 CDs - 2GB iPod Nano

110 CDs - 4GB iPod Nano

130 CDs - 30GB iPod

175 CDs - 60GB iPod

ok lets see if i got this right hamachi is a p2p file sharing program that can use windows file sharing (meaning make a direct connection like if you were sharing files/folders on a home network so you can get files instantly but what hamachi is doing is using a IP address running vpn (tunneling protocol) for security.

 

 

right?

well holy shit i just fucked up major i have internet explorer 7.0 beta 2 installed and ummmm i use ccleaner program to delete internet tracks well they have this check box in the program called uninstall hotfixes (never had it checked) well i ran ccleaner i noticed there was a extera long list and i then notice that uninstall hotfixes is marked well to make it short i deleted the hotfix to uninstall Internet explorer 7.0 i cannot install because its still running on the computer and i cannot uninstall because i have no unistaller hotfix (and of course my wonderful windows system restore is corrupted because i uninstall and install many files daily i do not keep the space up high because of that reason so it does not save no more then 5 days of backups

 

so i guess i got 2 ways to fix this wait till IE brings out another beta or full version so i can upgrade and uninstall this one or format the computer

 

 

nice story aint it

 

so what should i do people

 

1- wait for IE to upgrade?

 

2- do an early spring cleaning and format the computer?

I'm thinking about building a new computer in the near future. Should I get a 2.8 GhZ or is there something better that I should get right now, or possibly wait for until it comes out? Not too expensive, though!

 

 

you can get a 3.2 for 700 so go for atleast 3.0 dont worry about the dualcore and all that crap

[/b]

 

 

$700 American just for that one part? Damn, that's a lot of money. I can wait until May, at the latest, so hopefully I can get a deal.

 

Thanks.

The only thing you might have a hard time finding is a decent power supply for a MicroATX case.

 

Oh, and I forgot a CD/DVD drive, but those aren't too expensive.
