outsourcing rocks!

Posted on | May 3, 2004 |

In related new, I’ve decided to outsource all mp3 playing to my new Chinese made CD/MP3 player. At a Wal-Mart everyday low price of $25, I see why everyone’s outsourcing.

    I wouldn’t have to do this if my Taiwanese laptop didn’t sound like a jet engine when it multitasked.

    Woah. Seriously? Can it read Joliet, or do you have to limit the filenames to ~8 characters? How’s the display? *searches Walmart.com* Is it the Duraband CD-96? Hmm…How does it handle VBR?

    Um, I don’t know. I think it’s this one.

    It’s actually a little boombox. But, last night I threw in a CD of mp3 data and it went to town. The display doesn’t give a song title. The bugger was cheap, though, and since I don’t have a need for a huge sound system/stereo, it’s perfect.

    (sidenote: according to the manual, all songs must end with .mp3, not .doc or .pdf. You know, just in case you had thought about putting your songs in Word format.)

Dreams

To live in a bike friendlier world. To create the greatest collection of fabulous shoes ever assembled. To see a viable third party in US politics. To get local Rio team riders to acknowledge existence on road.
