1) the computer thing i have already looked into, but i need to hookup and wire the LCD (solder it) into the printer port and i dont know how to program the display after..etc...so its complicated for me.

2) As for that neo idea, thats more convenient, plus i can take it anywhere else since its a portable cd player. I can buy a long audio wire from radioshack (6 feet seems adequate), plug it into the AUX in my amp and that would solve everything... actually i am looking now as we speak on amazon.com and i already found a few mp3 cd players...memorex, casio, dlink, etc...

the casio one looks like it is the best out of the ones they offer...

Thanks for the help guys

Eric
