	Yeah, see, I'm on a laptop, which means that I can watch a
movie when I get bored just about anywhere.  I see this as taking some
of the sting out of occasionally being in places where there is no
innurnet.  

	In the ULB doc, I note that the panasonic drive he mentions is
a SCSI device.  This could take care of a lot of the buffering and
streaming problems I"ve been having with the spinup and transfer lag.
Goddamn laptop IDE.
