    So I've told you what I had in a previous post. Now I'll tell you what I chose for the parts of my new PC. I jump right to the details you're interested in, the parts! What did Keith pick for his brand new PC? Wait no longer, here you are! I'll go into more detail about why I chose these parts in the final portion of this article, and tell of my satisfaction or dissatisfaction of my choices and why in my next post on this topic.

  • Why current implementations of DRM suck for digital music

    I've upgraded my machine again (you'll see more on this in a later article/post where I talk about my experiences with some cool new hardware) and had to migrate my files over to the new machine from the old machine. I was a bit surprised when I tried to play my MP3s and found a few songs that woudn't play. When I checked, I realized that these were WMA files that I'd purchased from PeerImpact and MSN Music . I purcased these songs from these services through some free coupons received with the purchase...
