Anybody posting messages on this forum, is tech-aware. You are tech-aware. I would be surprised if your children are not ... They are probably more than you are. The very problem of people playing with computers is their total incapacity to understand that the vast majority of people do not care at all about that ... They do not want to check if their artwork won't break the scanner, and let them stuck with unusable library (something I almost never saw happening in any music system but Squeezeboxes ...) I do think they are right, and that software is still a highly immature industry. Nothing weird, it is a very young industry. People like you are just saying that every people having a car must have a garage and spend several hours a week digging in the engine. This is just plain wrong (not because they would not be able to do it, but because they DO NOT want to do it whatsoever ...) -- nicolas75 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ nicolas75's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15823 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91532 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
