Not quite hardware, but anyway now that the crap version of media player is official, anyone know where to get 6.4 (the last good version), I don't wanna be stuck with the earlier version that comes with win98se.

You dont need to download it again.

It's still there,look in C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\mplayer2.exe

AMB, I thing WMP7 is OK with a wider range of support than 6.4 (My Nomad II, MP3 playlists, etc.). I still prefer WinAmp for most audio, but it's nice having a unified player in some instances.

Jack of all trades, master of none.

Unification blows sometimes.

WMP is good for movies. Real Player is decent for streaming, good at annoying you everytime you want to use it. Winamp/Sonique are good for mp3s. WMP might be good, but I HATE HATE HATE deaing with music/movie libraries. Musicmatch Jukebox is good at extracting wavs or converting straight to Mp3, but I would never if my life depended on it use it (or real jukebox for that matter) use it as my CD burner or MP3 player.

I'd rather have a number of SMALL programs that do an EXCELLENT job in their respective area than have one huge POS that can do all of them with extreme mediocrity.
