Answer to original question: I don't know what possesses people to use WMV3 (which is actually Windows Media 9 video) in AVI files, but you're currently out of luck. WindowsMediaPlayer on the mac knows how to play WMV3, but it can't read AVI containers, so it's useless, and I know of no way to build the video and audio streams from an AVI file into an ASF file, at least on a Mac.
There are also no open source players that can decode WMV3, although a couple days ago the first foundations for doing just that were laid in the ffmpeg project, so eventually there will be options.
Like bankshot implied, that's an embarassingly ignorant comment, being that although AVI probalby isn't as good of a container format as MOV (less features), they're identical in that they both allow a huge range of video and audio formats, which is your complaint.
If you'd like me to demonstrate by making a MOV with a codec you can't play, it'll take me about a minute and a half.
The only difference is that most people who make MOV files stick to standard QuickTime codecs, whereas AVI, being much more popular for home-ripped files on the internet (where people seem to have an inexplicable urge to use bizzare codecs when there are far better and more popular alternatives available), has a huge range of oddball stuff people decide to use with them. You could easily do the same with QuickTime if you felt like it, though, and I'll bet if it was more popular people would.
I had no idea that non-QuickTime stuff was allowed in a MOV file. That seems like not such a smart idea to me - it'll just confuse people that download it, expecting that it will play in QuickTime Player, when it doesn't.

Why would you want to paint yourself?
it would be semi-see-thru.
Cannot do a clear case and keep the RFI rating it currently has, remove the metal box and the computer would get extremely noisy. And check on some of the clock rates to find out where to tune the your radio, tv, cell phone, etc. dial.
if i were good in creating stuff in photoshop, i would try to recreate my "dream" machine.
maybe someone out there would want to give it a shot. and recreate it.

No one really knows for sure, but the timeframe for an update is relatively narrow. If you go by the 6-month update rule, the iBook would get its update in November.
The latest we're likely to see an update (and rumours have suggested it to be more likely) is at MacWorld San Francisco, in early January. If this is what happens, it's very likely that the next iBook model will be a substantial redesign, and not just a speed-bump. Among some of the more interesting rumours have been that there would be a 13" screen in the current 12" case size, that the lineup will move to G4s like the iMac did, and (the most fanciful of them all) we'll see the current 14" iBook replaced with a 14" widescreen model.
No matter what happens, hold on to your money if you want to get the most out of a new iBook; the iBook 700 we have now is great, but it could be the end of its generation.

yea but i dont want to wait another 3 weeks for that deal to come besides i dont need an ipod.
Yeah if I wasn't on a tight budget i'd buy mine already, but even though i'm not going to use the iPod, paying taxes (~$33) for it in Canada and reselling it for just under Apple's price you'll end up getting the iMac for near $300 cheaper including the student discount.

If I lived in the UK I'd subscribe to GoMINI but it is soooo expensive to get over here! It works out to be about $10USD per issue. :eek:
I wish imported magazines whould cost only $10USD here. :o
Anyway, I don't subscribe to anything, but there's two comics I usually buy every month; Pondus and Nemi.
I used to buy a lot more magazines earlier, and had a subscription to the norwegian edition of PC World, plus there were other magazines I also bought very often, but after I got internet access I barely buy anything anymore.
Exception whould be if I'm some place without good internet access.. last time I was in a hospital I bought magazines for about 1000NOK (~157$USD) :eek:

Don't waste your money on some random music recovery program.. I have used Senuti and never had an issue grabbing songs off my iOS devices:
http://www.fadingred.com/senuti/
It's free, fast, and did I mention that it is free?
EDIT: It was free when I started using it.. now there is a trail for 1000 songs.. shouldn't have an issue unless you have more than that. If you do, PM me...
Now if only i'd thought to use the forums when I had my issues!
Good to know that there are reliable free progs out there.

I've got an iBook and have the Energy Saver set to put the display to sleep after 20 minutes or whatever. But I've noticed that if I've got my TV plugged in, when the iBook's display turns off, so does the TV output. How do I stop this from happening?

i recommend backing up your entire home folder, but most importantly the library folder. i usually go through and look at what i actually need inside of there. a lot of times you will find that you don't even have half of the apps that use that stuff anymore. also the main library folder may have some things that you need in it. to preserve all of your preferences, in both library folders, there is a 'preferences' folder...keep those.

When I upgraded from a 23" Cinema Display to a 27" Cinema Display I appreciated the size increase... for two days.
It is not "too large". You can run Adium, Twitter, Safari and Mail at very large window sizes, with no overlapping. I'm actually replacing the Mac Mini that's currently powering the 27" Cinema Display with a 27" iMac. Yes. Dual 27s.
-----
I run a Mac Mini (Mid-2010) and 27" LED CD on a 4x2 IKEA Galant desk. I'm going to be building a custom desk/shelves into a closet that is slightly smaller than 4x2 (I think the desk will be 45.5" x 20", or 6 1/3 sqft.), because I've measured it out and I know it'll be plenty of space for a keyboard/mouse alongside what is effectively two 27" widescreen displays.
That's all the desk you "need" if you're not putting stacks of papers and magazines all over it.

the Switcheasy NeoTouch puts your iPod at around the thickness of an iPhone 3Gs. not super slim, but pretty decent (slimmer than both the Rebel or the Torrent). i can attest to its quality and protection! otherwise check out their Nude.

The FCC has a mechanism for experimental licenses.

Otherwise, how would you build the device before you submit it for licensing?
