the title says it all

here’s mine (one of mine rather)

My whole computer experienced is based around nullsoft winamp 2 and has been since I’ve had it. I use winamp to check if my computer is feeling okay. I believe it is a really well written software and is the last soldier up and running before my microsoft-based machine goes into meltdown. I do a lot of cpu-heavy tasks on a laptop and the best way I have to know if I’m over-working my computer is to take a look/listen to winamp. It’s it a bit hard to explain, but it beats any benchmark tool.

well, that felt weird, professing my love for a media player
