00:00.10 | George | I don't see much point in upgrading my current iPod (a 30GB second generation one) until I can get at least twice the capacity for < 200 GBP |
00:00.10 | Leeds | <PROTECTED> |
00:02.10 | Leeds | fair comment... to be honest, I've sort of stopped using my iPod for portable stuff - since I'm rarely away from home for longer than a day, and I've got enough capacity on my phone (and I'm planning to buy more today) and enough battery - and it means carrying less hardware around |
00:02.30 | Leeds | instead, since all my CDs are in London, I use the iPod in my flat as my source of music |
00:04.39 | George | good plan |
00:04.41 | George | which iPod do you have? |
00:06.07 | Leeds | 40gig 4g |
00:06.23 | George | I think that was the most popular iPod |
00:07.15 | Leeds | and also a 20gig 3g with a broken screen which I just use as an external hard drive |
00:07.24 | George | rich bastard. |
00:07.41 | George | oh I remember when you did that |
00:07.45 | George | you sat on it didn't you? |
00:07.47 | Leeds | my insurance replaced it... |
00:07.49 | Leeds | stood on it |
00:07.54 | George | worse :) |
00:08.03 | George | how the hell did you get insurance to pay for that? |
00:08.04 | Leeds | :-) |
00:08.13 | Leeds | accidental damage |
00:08.17 | George | heh |
00:08.19 | George | nutter |
00:08.19 | George | :P |
00:08.31 | George | and they let you keep it? |
00:08.31 | George | odd. |
00:09.11 | Leeds | the point was that Apple told me that they wouldn't repair it, they'd just replace it - so the insurance people paid to replace it, but they decided, for some reason, to cover a 40gig rather than a 20 |

09:11.23 | Leeds | ooh, the light show is back on outside |
09:12.34 | Leeds | apparently there's been 100km/h winds and a waterspout nearby in the past few minutes |
09:13.34 | gregj | wow |
09:13.51 | gregj | so it's rather windy out there :-) |
09:17.59 | Leeds | yup... plus lots of rain and more than one flash per minute |
09:19.01 | Leeds | it's the back end of the edge of the tropical storm passing over us |
09:19.02 | gregj | in HK ? |
09:19.05 | Leeds | yup |

12:32.37 | Leeds | hmm... amazingly, a need to use wine - and it works (almost) perfectly |
12:33.44 | gregj | unbelivable |
12:33.54 | gregj | it works like crap here |
12:34.04 | gregj | unless I use cross over office |
12:34.17 | Leeds | it's a utility which does some stuff to a file and saves it back out |
12:36.11 | gregj | oh, so it's pretty simple I gues |
12:36.29 | Leeds | right |
12:37.04 | Leeds | in fact, as far as I can see, it's not much more than a frontend to two other utilites which actually run on the command-line! :-) |
