ummmmmmmmm
sounds like that taper should also try running the usb out of the minime into his mouth, then some crazy type of cable out of his ass and into a friggin v2 before his laptop... but he'd better watch out, 'cause if the impedance of the cable out of his ass is too high, he might get constipated and block the signal and not get a phatty pull that night...
actually, it sounds like there was some miscommunication somewhere between you and the taper. any ideas, anyone?
