Ahh...  I'll look into it.

My other problem is that mp3 encoding takes too long (10-15 mins) on
my single 233 P-II (which used to be fast).  I've looked around on the
net to download new ones, but can't find a download site.  Wish intel
would supply downloads of their newer processors...

More seriously though, a friend of mine just told me that he just saw
a cd juke box for sale at a local electronics shop.  It's somewhat
expensive (for a CD player) at US$350, but it holds 350 CDs.  Thats
more than I can fit on my current hard disk (12gb total between two)
:-).  I'm considering it...

I doubt it comes with an elisp control system though....
