Hello lost readers

I've basically given up on ever having any loyal readers of this blog. Frankly, it's my own fault! I started this to help you guys decide if Linux is a good choice for you or not? But it's getting harder and harder to make this pitch all the time. (Not that Linux isn't getting better all the time.)

I frankly do like what I see in the iPad. And once it's Apple, you know it will be supported, unlike a lot of Open Source! Open Source is fighting an uphill battle with royalties, and pattens, take overs, etc. that prevent development. I've become quite defeatist at being a rebel today. Anyway, iPads are moving in the right direction as far as price, which is a complete surprise to me. Now if Apple would just be developer friendly, I could see myself settling into an iPad, nicely. However, with a good built in browser, that might not be such an issue either? I just talk myself into buying one!

I started this note today, because I just found the built in radio servers that are in the VLC media player. I'm listening to German Radio, that was listed under 80's music. It's a bit different than American Radio, for sure. These are found under the 'playlist/Additional Service' menu, on the player window. Rock on, all!
