Like so many others, my GPU has started crashing when it gets warm and the problem is becoming progressively worse.

		<description><![CDATA[SHALL WILL SHOULD MUST MAY

You see these terms in software requirements documents all the time.  There is even an RFC that defines them.  Unfortunately, RFC 9119 is poor practical advice.


Let&#8217;s set the stage by focusing on the real world.  The purpose of a real requirements document is to communicate a common understanding [...]]]></description>

Microsoft in Redmond, WA
Apple in Cupertino, CA
LAME, the open source project on SourceForge


Answer: all of them offer a MP3 audio encoder.

Likewise&#8230;

		<description><![CDATA[The RIAA won a $222,000 lawsuit against an individual woman in Minnesota who was using a peer-to-peer network.  As absurd as that sounds, it didn&#8217;t alarm me much until I read more of the details.  Apparently, the woman wasn&#8217;t found guilty of downloading copyright music.  She was guilt of making copyright music [...]]]></description>

The Sony w880 also looks promising.

The OpenMoko FIC Neo1973 Smartphone was announced several months ago and will be available in February, 2007.

Customers do not, as Napster suggests, pay $10,000 to fill their iPods with 10,000 songs just because the capacity is there. They take their existing music, CDs and MP3s, and put that onto the device first, then later add iTunes songs as they go along.
