At the moment my (what I loosely refer to as) DJing is still mostly done from CDs, but I suppose that with a little thought I could sort out more modern alternatives, not sure it would feel the same though. Although that's what the cylinder with spiky pins crowd think....

As for films, when Google finally get their finger out and release ChromeOS netbooks then this trusty Thinkpad can be used to stream all that stuff to the TV, saving me the effort of burning DVDs or spending ages converting stuff between formats to please Sony et al...
