My Satellite ran for 3.5 years but that last year, it was SLOW. We tried everything, but it died a very slow and painful death, taking my iTunes with it.

Had a Satellite too. When it died, it wasn't pretty. But when it worked, it was excellent. Has anyone had any issues with encryption programs? Mom's job installed one on her computer and it ate Windows. The company's tech say there's nothing they can do about it. It's the BIOS. WTF? Isn't that their job to know which BIOS (what is that?) works with their program and to sorta warn people before they install something hazardous onto their computer? Sorry, for the rant. It's been 3 weeks of

Does anyone know why mp3 files of the same song can have different sizes even when they're both listed as 320 kbps? Is their quality really the same, or can the bitrate in the file details be listed wrong?

KarenK, it could be that one has lyrics or thumbnail cover images or other data in the metatags.

I don't think it's thumbnail images at least, because I downloaded an mp3 tag program that lets me remove those unfortunately ugly covers I don't want to see on my media player. When I remove a cover using that program, it's usually a couple hundred kb in size, but the mp3 file size difference can be a few MBs.

Does anyone know why my speakers would randomly stop working? I checked my computer's settings and I didn't accidentally set it to mute or anything. Probably related, iTunes won't play any songs, either; the little diamond just refuses to move.
I have a MacBook, if that makes a difference. Send help! I tried googling, but to no avail.
Edit: Never mind, it started working again. No idea what that was.

The only other reason I can think of would be that the two files have different sampling rates or maybe it's as simple as different encoders have different compression algorithms.

Has anyone used a Lenovo? I'm being seduced by their fast start up time! (Impatient, party of one.)
Also: Flipcams? They make So many. I've been reading the reviews on Amazon, but, they're mainly ALL four stars. Before I read through the TON of them, I thought I'd check and see if y'all had a preference or any experience.

I finally have a big enough stash to buy an iPad. Before plunking down the cash is there another tablet to consider?
Also, my LG Android phone is getting slower and slower to respond. How are the other Android phones?

My current laptop is a lenovo Think Pad and I love it. Check the outlet section of their website (outlet.lenovo.com) for scratch and dent models. They are new, not refurbished and have minor cosmetic damage (mine has a couple very small scratches on the lid) but they are much cheaper than the perfect ones.
