    iriver – iFP-700 Series Support. I haven’t use this little guy in a while because I’ve been too lazy to podcast and since this unit doesn’t control volume well, it is useless for that. But it lets me list to WMA protected files, so it will be useful for listening to books on tape and…

    AnandTech – Chaintech VNF3-250 Motherboard Question. Well, I’ve just lost another memory module. Been running 2x512MB PC3700 OCZ Gold Rev 2 for a while now in the Chaintech rig, but I’ve been getting random BSODs.
