Ben,
ESP lunch? wahhhz that? There are a couple tv viewers I want to try...
kwintv, motv, the text olnly one, ... my tv tuner doesnt have radio built in,
but I do have a radio card (but I havnt tried it yet...) I was thinking it
would be an interesting way to do cheap highbandwidth oneway networking (who
says you cant broadcast data?). Its funny that you mentioned making mp3's
from radio... a friend of mine works at a radio station, they play MP3's (its
all controlled by computers these days... no cd's or records...) A couple
years ago they went from an NT based system (which crashed all the time) to a
linux based system (I kept telling him...) after about 6 months he told me it
still hadnt crashed which made his life a lot better.
I dont go down to EFN much... I could go down there... or I could meet you
somewhere (Ill buy coffee if you want?).
