last week i "ripped" 8 episodes from the miami vice season one dvd  
with handbrake, so that i wouldn't have to take the dvds with me on  
my trip.

each episode (45min) took around 2h15min to rip on my girldfriend's  
ibook (1.33ghz, 768mb ram).

it took just 12min per episode on a 2.66 macpro with 3gigs of ram…

amazing
