I agree, good idea.

I'm still keen on the Matrix idea. For those of you with big internet =
connections (and that don't read slashdot) - a link to the newly released =
Matrix Reloaded trailer http://progressive1.stream.aol.com/wb/gl/wbonline/p=
rogressive/thematrix/us/med/trailer_final_1000_dl.zip 100MB and you'll =
need the faad codec for mplayer.

Cheers,
