    I've been browsing through my cd collections and ripping particular songs/music into a USB Pendrive- so that I can test the about-to-be-bought hometheater system in showrooms with my own music. I copied around 10 files and I was there in show rooms going through different models/brands. I found a model in Sony doing good. But just when I put my hands into the pocket found that I forgot to pick the pendrive from my pc :doh: :(. Things like this & Forgetting mobile chargers, data cables, camera battery- in particular while going for a jungle trek. I just hate em all totally. I've been staying away from these forgetfulness.. but now it's creeping back in. :sigh:

    Starting to think people post kid pics in their profiles because that was the last time they were cute - Jeremy.

      So I figure this is not you[^]?

      Personally, I love the idea that Raymond spends his nights posting bad regexs to mailing lists under the pseudonym of Jane Smith. He'd be like a super hero, only more nerdy and less useful. [Trevel]

        That's the reason why I keep my thumb drive on my key ring, so I don't have a :doh: moment.

                  Ahhh, But it is not a custom cable, if you look at the other pics the bit that opens from the band is a standard usb connector, so you just have to take it off ,if you don't have the cable, and plug it straight in.

                        Given your physique, I can imagine the scene it would've created :laugh: And after reading your bicep dimensions in some post earlier, I'm going to make double sure that stay in your good books when we meet. :rolleyes:

                          Indeed, it was quite a scene. Rumours were spread that I was the personal bodyguard of the bride (who was a colleague then), and she kinda enjoyed it. And we still laugh about it when we talk. :laugh: The marriage was at a village near Agra in the month of December! It was TERRIBLY cold and I could avail no help - I only had a thin body-hugging tshirt to put on my torso and a pair of boxers for the rest. Thankfully, after several hours of suffering in the cold, the bride's sister gave me a sweater. Not to mention I wasn't ever used to that kind of temperature (3 degree celcius) and by their tradition, the marriage takes place during the night (all the stuff were arranged in their lawn, with no roof). One can imagine. :)

                          Unfortunately those dimensions belong to the history. Now it must now be more or less like 14 inches and I've lost all the muscle that I can. But I do hope that they'll deem me as perfectly OK when they examine my body next time (coming February). In which case, I'll go back to the gym. I can't wait!

                                They were like 320Kbps bit rated mp3s. Why it doesn't sing the truth?

                                    It's hard for most people to tell the difference between an uncompressed WAV file and a 256K (or higher) MP3 created using a decent encoder like Fraunhofer, when listening through headphones.  The moment you expand the aural field to loudspeakers, the loss of quality is very noticeable.  For this reason, you shouldn't base your decision to purchase a home theater setup on MP3s. /ravi

                                      Ahhh, But it is not a custom cable, if you look at the other pics the bit that opens from the band is a standard usb connector, so you just have to take it off ,if you don't have the cable, and plug it straight in.

                                      Since you have to take it off, I would forget the watch plugged into the stores computer

                                        I've been browsing through my cd collections and ripping particular songs/music into a USB Pendrive- so that I can test the about-to-be-bought hometheater system in showrooms with my own music. I copied around 10 files and I was there in show rooms going through different models/brands. I found a model in Sony doing good. But just when I put my hands into the pocket found that I forgot to pick the pendrive from my pc :doh: :(. Things like this & Forgetting mobile chargers, data cables, camera battery- in particular while going for a jungle trek. I just hate em all totally. I've been staying away from these forgetfulness.. but now it's creeping back in. :sigh:
