Now for you know first Sunday in April I think it is the last or the first Saturday, its first Sunday in October, last Sunday in April that will all change. Whatever the rule is now that will change and that means that the software has to change as well. Now there are parts of the country that at the same time are changing what they do locally, parts of Arizona, parts of Indiana. They don*t pay much attention to Daylight Savings Time. In fact Arizona doesn*t change at all which means part of the year they are the same time as we are here in LA and sometimes for the other part of the year they are an hour ahead. So it*s a little bit confusing but yes you will have to pay attention and this will be something that your operating system software provider which is kind of an odd way of putting it but Microsoft or Apple will let you know about it and also if you have a flavor of UNIX that you are running you will have to upgrade that as well. It will come in, in an upgrade. It won*t happen right away. Understand that they are talking about this for 2007 I believe. So we have got a year or two for that to happen. And so for Windows people that means when Vista comes out it will probably be aware of this new launch. By that time we will have a whole different version of Mac OS X as well an upgrade to install the Linux stuff. So it probably won*t be something that you have to worry about until we get closer but yes it will absolutely change the way we use computers and frankly I am not so keen on this spring, the spring forward I have said many times on the air spring forward night is the worst night of my life. Because I will lose an hour of sleep and I value my sleep so much fall back night in October I love that night I get an extra hour sleep oh yeah baby. But I have always wondered why they don*t do daylight savings time after Halloween. I mean it seems reasonable to me that if there is going to be another extra hour of daylight they just wait to go back to standard time until after the night when most kids are out there after dark. You know I mean it*s more safe there is light on the street there is a whole bunch of things whole bunch of reasons why having it be light out you can see the costumes better, alright. Whole bunch of reasons why having that after Halloweens switching back after Halloween might be a good idea. So yes it will affect things and yes you should pay attention to it but again it hasn*t passed yet and if it does pass it won*t be for a while that it*s putting in place. 27 past the hour my name is David Lawrence let*s see if Brandon is still on the line, are you still there Brandon?

Brandon: Yes, I am still here.

David Lawrence: How can I help you sir?

Brandon: I am looking for a high capacity mp3 player that you can just drag songs on to your USB drive and then drag them up.

David Lawrence: Okay the iRiver is like that and in fact any mp3 player is like that. The iPod works best with iTunes because it*s an automatic sync deal but you can also, you can also use it in disc mode and you can drag things on and off but it won*t play automatically but you can certainly do that.
