I hate this damn machine. Why don't I sell it. It does not what I want it to, but rather what I tell it.
Clicked on play button. Buffer got up to 62%, then stalled and started over according to the numbers. Pressed the stop button...kept playing a little bit more, then a little bit more. It should hav stopped when I pressed the more button to download it, and it did not. I pressed the more button to get the download link. Still playing bits. Started download. Download completes in record time. Downloaded five seconds of it according to winamp. Delete file. Start download again. That five second bit in the cache, so the download is at 1000kbps, and I am not on broadband. Dropped the whole page to stop it from playing bits. Called it up again. Pressed title bar to get full description page. 89%, 9:04.
