    Does anyone know if the Media Control Keys on the front edge of the Inspiron 1520 notebook control iTunes? I am trying to decide whether to install iTunes on my lappy when I finally get the thing, or if I should just stick with WMP11. Any thoughts?

    Does anyone have any praise or horror stories for this Multi-Plugin 2.4? I've seen a few horror stories and I'm a bit skeptical...

    I also came upon this one. Does anyone have any experience with this? It seems a bit more minimalistic and streamlined, and less likely to mess with a program permanently as long as you keep the old file you replace with this.
