Happy Birthday Musicbox!

Sheesh, I nearly forgot!  My car MP3 player turned one last Tuesday, April 6th!

Oh, he was conceived many months before that, and spent those months getting ready for life in the outside world.  But it was April 6th, 2003 when he first saw the light of day and got installed in my car.  Ah, I remember it like it was yesterday.  It was surely the happiest day of my... well, of that week, at least.

He’s been running fantastically for a year, and getting smarter too.  And the same hard drive has held up for the full year, which I’m sorta pretty surprised about.  I drive my car pretty much every day, putting on about 14,000 miles per year, so that is one tough hard drive.
