I'm using iTunes for the time being, although I really need a better audio player.

I was going to pick winAmp, but it looks incredibly stupid and I'm not paying them so that I can watch videos, that's ridiculous.
iTunes is basically a virus on windows, and windows media player doesn't have iPod music management support,
Spotify isn't available in canada

wtf do I use?

foobar2000 looks nice, not sure if it has iPod support or not guess it does have iPod support

DOSBox is an amazing DOS emulator, much better than using VirtualBox and installing DOS on it.
Morrowind should be able to play with a constant 40+ FPS on an Intel 915GM, so stuttery video won't be an issue
I'm pretty sure it's compatible with Windows 7, if not, it would probably work using one of the compatibility modes.

It's like seeing a piece of chocolate and then finding out that it's feces.

you're comparing an edible product (raisins) to an inedible by-product of digestion

I thought it was the other way around.

Haven't used 12.10 yet; don't intend to. Banshee was default in 11.10, and I'm pretty sure Rhythmbox is still default.

Isn't that the default Ubuntu player?

After 12.04, Rhythmbox is the default in Ubuntu. In previous versions, such as 11.10, it was indeed the default player.
I've grown accustom to it, I guess.

I hated that about ordering from Newegg with UPS, if your order comes from the USA, it doesn't go past the border on weekends. Wait until Monday and the status should change.

My computer does this on all AP's.

then firstly ensure your WiFi card's drivers are up-to-date
check if certain older versions fix your problem
look for alternative drivers that also work for your card
use a different OS to see if it's just Windows
if the connection still gets interrupted, the WiFi card is broken and you will either have to buy a new one or claim warranty (if it was prebuilt)
