I actually have access to several iPods and it's like I just stare at them .. people ask me .. "what do they do" .. and so I do a few 'shazamm' things with my hands .. the razzle .. the dazzle .. and then swtich them off. I got an Etch & Sketch for Xmas back in 1963... hehehe .. oy .. where am I going with this .. uhh.. yes .. the younger set seems to like to have them on hand as an executive toy playthings or something or other ... like a new pair of Levis or Nikes'

One is for sure: turn xorg-edgers off before or else You (almost surely) end up in broken (or at least stalled) upgrade... Been like that for ages and never let me down...
