It's frustrating. I downloaded Squared 5, which is supposed to serve this function. It took a really long time to 'convert' the first episode of Syfy's Alice. The result was 45 minutes of black screen. Ergh.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Javachik, if you email me the high res version of the photo, I can take that out for you.

Deena, you're so kind. I shall. Thanks!

Some DVD players can handle CD's with .avi files on them. Trying putting in a blank CD or DVD, dropping the movie file on it and burning it that way.

All is well that ends in pizza.
The second is the outdated URL, le nubian. [link] is the "current" one, AFAIK.

I don't see how Flash can survive if browsers will soon be able to support the same functionality natively.
I don't think it will (which is a good thing), but it could take awhile to shake out while legacy browsers are still the most common. How long has IE6 been the bane of web designers?

True dat, but I was speaking in the context of Apple devices. As long as most web sites start coding to support the new Flash-less standards (whether or not they *also* support legacy browsers), it won't matter that the iPad doesn't have Flash.

Yeah, I don't think the lack of Flash is going to hurt the iPad very much either.
