Help needed: Connecting a 220V power supply to a Headroom "Little"
Thanks for the answer. My Little is from 2001 or so and on the PSU module it says +/-12V @150mA so I may only put on 12V and see if that is enough. Now I just need to figure out which of the wires is the ground and I will be good to go.- legoman

Help needed: Connecting a 220V power supply to a Headroom "Little"
When I was living in the US I had bought a Headroom Little. Now that I am in Europe I wanted to convert it to 220V. I thought this should be quite easy as there is a cheapy-looking external power supply. I thought I could just clip the cables and reconnect it to an off-the-shelf regulated 12V...- legoman

Cheaper/more robust headphone with similar insulation as ER-6?

ER-6 cable contact problems / robust alternatives?
I am on my second pair of ER-6 now. The first pair developed intermittent contact problems on both sides where the cables connect inside the earpieces, i.e. depending on cable/earpiece location the sound comes on/goes off. I bought another pair and after a few months of heavy use I am...- legoman

In Europe, there isn't even the 512MB version available. Only the 256. Sigh.- legoman

Sportsnight, definitely. Essentially the networks have a basic rule: If I like it, they cancel it. Notable exception: Scrubs.- legoman

Laser printer all the way. Cost per page is a fraction of inkjet and you are not running out every week getting a new cartridge. The only thing to watch out for is sticker shock for the toner cartridge (e.g. $100, but then again it prints 5,000+pages).- legoman
