So, despite my lack of desire to see money traded for random, typically useless stuff shipped to me, I acquired one of these Woot Bags of Crap. I think these in particular are more about the nerd cred than the actual thing. Once again, no major scores like big screen… Continue reading
So, I plugged the Zune in and fired up the software. I don’t have the external drive with all my music on it plugged in, but I want to see if I can make some playlists from the songs on the device. Dabble around a bit trying to figure out… Continue reading
