Title: Rave Against the Machine
Product review: The Rave MP2100 is in many ways a fine product, but it suffers from two positively bone-headed design flaws:1. Unlike, say, the Diamond Rio MP3 players, the MP2100 is not compatible with, and doesn't ship with, a parallel-port sharing connector, which means you have to disconnect your printer to use the MP2100. Do you really want to choose between using your printer and using your MP2100?2. The setup program is not compatible with Windows 2000, and the company that makes the MP2100 doesn't even have any plans to release a Windows 2000 setup program. That means if your PC uses Windows 2000--soon to be standard at almost any large or medium-sized American business--you're going to be SOL with your MP2100.Both of these problems indicate a fatal lack of customer focus by Sensory Science Corporation, the MP2100's manufacturer. Save your money and buy an MP3 player from a company that actually understands how the average person uses these devices.
