My office has a deal on them for $0 after $0 MIR :p

That's awesome. Do I have to throw one of those "HELLO!" bricks through the window?

Nah, but you do have to treat the 24 hour security guys to a rousing game of hide and seek.

I'd be down for that. I'd just hide in plain sight. They'll never find me. And if they do I'll just tazer their ass.

I dunno, these guys are experts (at sitting in their tiny office by the cafeteria).

I just ordered a 100 pack of Ridata on sale at newegg for $23.99

That's about the best I have found. Everywhere else is like double that price for some reason. I hope it's good media...never used them but they all say it's just really good stuff. I usually get Memorex but I usually don't have to pay more than $15 for it. Oh well.

I have a stack of Ridata CD-Rs that have been fine.

I'll hold you personally responsible if these suck.

:music:I've been drivin' all night, my hand's wet on the wheel
There's a voice in my head that drives my heel
It's my baby callin', says I need you here
And it's half past four and I'm shifting gear

/ Em7 Em Em7 Em / :

When she's lonely and the longing gets too much
She sends a cable comin' in from above
We don't need no phone at all
We've got a thing that's called radar love
We've got a wave in the air, radar love:music:

BTW....I can hear music in the 15 second one, but not the other two. Stupid java..why do some require java? None of them should use java.

The 15 second one uses a flash wrapper. The other two are not dependant on the timing of the music, so I left it out. The flash wrapper introduces that 'loading' screen delay, and it's use is generally frowned upon if it is unnecessary for synch reasons. The other two use MP3's IIRC. There really isn't Java, but if you're using Firefox, you need a playback plugin, usually quicktime or quicktime alternative.

I have quicktime alternative... I hit install plugin once and it said Java....so I just never clicked install plugin again.
