"Aoccdrnig to rseearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a total mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe."

Getting obsessive compulsive about spelling is a waste of energy.

You're slipping Jim . ;-)

I can actually see 8 mistakes in those five lines so I think tweak'e wins this round . ;-)

266230 2004-08-29 03:15:00 I thought Winamp was released up to 2.95, or am I wrong?

The only reason (literally) I changed from version 3 to 5 is because three took even longer to load, and 2 was dragging it's feet a bit in terms of features.
