Thanks to my good friend Juan, I got myself a Time Capsule (which I’ll be calling TC from here on out). Finally, I’m now able to make good on that last thought I had in an old post.
Call to boycott Creative Labs
I invite everyone to take a look at this thread… and be utterly disgusted. I also invite anyone who has time to spare, to do whatever you can in decreasing the market share of Creative Labs products.
