    Do you think IT work makes it hard to be as subjective as some members here?
    What about burning in hard drives?
    No, I don't feel it's hard to separate the two at all. Like the website says, good sound (the transmission medium for music) can be considered an art, and that's how I'm trying to see it. To me a computer is just a useful tool, like a pair of scissors or something except more complicated.

    And if a person is an enthusiast there's nothing wrong with the use of high end parts. If you open an enterprise level server up you'll find expensive polymer caps, huge power supplies, extra inductors and regulators, redundancy, and anything else to make them more stable than an average desktop PC. The price is thousands higher for the server, but they both 'compute'. This is probably not what you mean is it?

    Well hell, I'm still sleepy. I think when you start playing around trying to get better sound, you put on your scientist hat whether you know it or not. And any good scientist should have an open mind and a good imagination. That's why I think, "While you may not be able to break the laws of physics, you can surely make amendments!". I guess that the supra geniuses are trying to fry bigger fish right now.

    It seems nowadays anyone that is passionate about something outside of the mainstream gets labeled a geek. I wear that badge with pride and honor! At least we are not discussing collection anime figurines or something! OMG!

    Regarding form speed again!

    I bought my own laptop yesterday (Mac) with 3UK WiFi modem. Performance is very acceptable.

    Two observations - yes the corporate safety stuff gets in the way and Vodafone 3G is pants where I live at least, keeps dropping to 2G.

    Best to all the IT guys, including the ones who haven't come out so to speak.

    Now to explore what a Mac can do for music.
