Edit; It will sell faster and for more money if you claim it can play PS3 games.

the best approach. claim that only it can "decode" a special audio track in the PS3. oh, and sell it for a minimum of $50.

Only with the dedicated 24.1 dE-Burred-Brown proprietary DAC developed for the Air Force's B-2 Spirit program. :laugh:

That plus I'm actually several years older now :D

If I shave I do tend to look 5 or more years younger though (or so I've been told)

Nah, you need more firepower than that. Unless you shot the card at point blank range, you're not going to do any serious damage.

I'd recommend shooting some .45 ACP rounds into it instead. That will put some manly sized holes into it :)

the only problem
is the program is lame
it is a user killer
it does not work with my tv tuner
and i have spent way to much time on it
So buy it or tell me how to kill it.

I think your brother is confused about what he missed. Did he hit his head while he was gone?
