Winamp 2 + Winamp 3 = Winamp 5! 896
An anonymous coward writes: Having been a loyal iTunes user for quite some time, after seeing the report on Ars Technica about the newly released Winamp 5 Final, I simply had to try it out. It's pretty amazing, rivaling iTunes in many ways on Windows (mainly, speed). Ripping, library, etc: They're all there. Plus it comes with a slew of of new scriptable features. Simply put, it's dead sexy. Get your copy now! Note, last link requires some other OS.

Hey everyone! I just wanted to let you know that while iTunes allows you to rip to .mp3 or AAC as well as other things (like run on a Macintosh) for FREE, you have to pay for the pro-version of WinAmp to do the same things (well...accept for the AAC and MacOS support).
Just wanted to mention this...
heh...oh well...I have some karma to burn.

Yes, but you can also run iTunes on a G5 with OSX. :D

Makes more sense than CPU versioning (Score:3, Funny)
Back in the early 90's, the original Pentium was called "P5." 5th generation, I believe, whereas the 80386 and 80486 were 3rd and 4th gen.
For example, Gateway had model numbers like "P5-120" for 120MHz Pentiums.
Pentium Pro became P6.
Then came the Pentium 2. This became abbreviated as P2. Or sometimes P-II.
Pentium 3 = P3. Or sometimes P-III.
Pentium 4 = P4.
I sure hope they never come out with anything called "Pentium 5" or somebody will get punched.
But if I didn't know any better, I'd say that a Commodore-128 was twice as powerful as an Athlon-64.

FWIW, a troll in the eye of the beholder is flamebait, or at least deathbait, with the beholder's 13-level "Finger of Death" ray causing at least 3d6+13 HP damage to a 6d8+36 troll (_Monster Manual_ v3.5 pp26-7, 247).

Good lord, man. If you don't stop being so defensive, you're going to combust spontaneously.
I call what you have "Apple Defensiveness Syndrome" (ADS) and it isn't healthy. I've lost many friends to the (dis)order. Suddenly, all Apple jokes and/or criticisms (or even mention of rivals) become lightning rods that threaten to ignite flamewars of gigantic proportions.
Try repeating this to yourself every time you get upset: "It's only a computer, it does not reflect my self worth."
