[sigh]

I really wish you wouldn't use Flickr. It's blocked ("no business purpose") at work, so all your cool-sounding headlines refer to broken image icons.

(I don't agree, but I don't make policy.)

(Yet.)

Holy crap, I've seen airliners with fewer controls.

this is an already produced lasonic boombox with a diff. grafic on it (cool nun the less) but for those who care to know this boom box is a modified (ipod dock) repo of a late 80' lasonic boombox the TRC - 931. one of the more flashy boombox's to be releaesed in its hayday, but not to be compared with any large sized conion some of wich came with there own alarm system... but i digress

Those are not controls. Those are little stickered on poorly designed graphic representations of Swarovsky kristals.
This and me should not be able to share the same dimension.

Their webpage comes up as an attack site in google.
Firefox gives me a malware warning when trying to go their.

I'd buy one because it is really cheesy but how does it feel to be at CES with a webpage that is reported as a malware vector?

Yep, had the same problem as Johnny. I *gasp* used IE and all that came up was white page with SITE UNDER CONSTRUCTION and a couple phone numbers.

I dig those Ipod boom boxes. I want one for myself, brings back some heady memories of blasting Dead Kennedy's Holiday In Cambodia rolling around my Jr. High. Yes, I was blasting the Dead Kennedy's from a boom box in Jr. High - it was 1980, come on!
