TWO NEW THINGS
I learned today:
1) If you have a microwave oven running when you are transferring files over a wireless network, the transfer rate drops massively. Yes I am serious, I did extensive testing. I didn't realise this would happen, but trust me, it does.
2) MP3s SUCK. You may well think they sound cool, but trust me, I'm an ex musician, and my sample files (Dream Theaters new album) sounds way better on my car stereo (CD) than on MP3, even if I use my ninja Bose headphones. (if you like music and do not own Bose QuietComfort2 headphones, you need to reasses your priorities. sell a kidney on ebay NOW).
I hope you all feel better people for knowing this.
