CNET came by the LUG booth yesterday and spoke to a few of us.
They used a tiny clip of me towards the end of this one :^)

    LinuxWorld 2004 conference attendees sound off

    As Linux makes its move in the big-business arena, the open-source
    community faces growing pains. Correspondent James Hilliard asks
    conference-goers at LinuxWorld 2004 in San Francisco for their
    thoughts on the transition and how it is affecting the development of
    the open-source landscape.

Konq. had problems figuring out that there's some JavaScript crap going
on to try and embed RealPlayer.  Mozilla showed RealPlayer, but didn't
actually PLAY anything.

I tried launching RealPlayer manually (rather than embedded insize Moz)
and gave it the URL below, but it barfed on it immediately.
I was able to feed it to mplayer to have it play the audio, but no video.

*sigh*

Stupid CNET.  Why can't they use more open formats!? >:^(


Anyway.  Enjoy!
