[geeks] Transferring Video to DVD

I get asked by the win-weenies why I don't have the latest, greatest,
biggiest, baddest, multi gigahertz machine with the eff-you video card.  I
just tell that I'd never use all that processing power, and besides that, I
prefer computers that don't self destruct a fraction of a second after the
heat-sink fails...

I get the strangest looks when I mention I'm saving up for an Octane.  After
explaining what it is, I have to answer questions about why a 5 year-old
computer would be worth that - though I suppose that's another set of
stories.

I'm pragmatic enough to realize that I'd never stress any of the current
crop of desktop machines.  An R10k Octane should suit me *just* fine
thankyouverymuch...

I feel like I'm wasting money every time I use this damned laptop...
