This is such a horrifically annoying statement.

Fry is nerdy now? o_O

Better features like what?

I'm playing Quake 3 on my Intel GMA 4500 onboard video, at the highest settings. Getting 90 fps.

Had he patented it, it would've expired in a couple of years and all would be the same. What's your point?

Well, yes, since you put it that way.

I believe Sun does still contribute to OO. Will they continue now they are acquired by Oracle? I hope so.

I found them incredible, especially the second one. Rarely does music relax me this much, make me so cheery. And I'm picky about my music.

You're in luck, this can be done in software. Install the K-Lite Codec Pack Standard. Open your movie in Media Player Classic. Go to "View->Options->External Filters", click Add Filter and add a "Compressor". Rightclick the blue "FFa" systray icon, click "FFDShow audio decoder", enable "Volume" on the left, and in those volume settings enable "Normalize". Voila, quiet parts are louder and loud parts are quieter.

So what? It's not like that makes anyone poorer.
