I have a 17" MacBook Pro, and there are no major whine issues or anything. It does get kinda warm to the touch on the bottom and near the LCD hinge. Battery life is definitely not the 5.5 hours that apple says it is, probably closer to 2.5-3 hours. But besides the short battery life and minor...

I would say that reason is the way to go, because it has a sequencer and all of that jazz built in, and several good synth "modules" with different kinds of synthesis, like granular, and analog modeling... one thing you might want to think about is getting a midi keyboard, like this one...

arturia makes some good sounding analog modeling synth reproductions of famous synthesizers such as the Minimoog and the Yamaha CS-80. you can download demos at www.arturia.com reason is another good program... www.propellerheads.se is the address it has several different types of...

none... there are a few in my area, though

you could get a Korg Microkorg, which can be had for around $300 on eBay. The MicroKorg has a vocoder section, which is responsible for most processed voice sounds, and a 6 voice polyphonic virtual analog synthesizer.

I just got some cards from vista-print, and they look real nice, and they took about a week and a half to get to my house. I'd recommend them, the cards are high quality. I got the glossy faced ones, so i'm not sure how the regular ones would look... as for the pi, you could probably find a...

the arc'teryx stuff is really nice, but it is really expensive... and the $400 jackets on there are probably overkill for most everyday things... if you want something similar in quality and features but most likely less expensive, check out Mountain Hardwear, The North Face, or Patagonia...

here's my tree... I decided not to do ornaments this year, because I don't know what color scheme I want to go with...

http://www.apple.com/ipodphoto/ 15 hour battery life, 65,000 color screen but it is a bit larger than the non-photo ipods, and more expensive (I don't know if anyone has posted this already, so if it has been, feel free to delete this thread)

wow... er6's for $4-5... someone needs to check this deal out what's the link to this site?

Almost always is nearly enough - Tortoise

Days to Come (in photographs) - The Circulatory System

check out Godspeed You! Black Emperor. Their album "lift yr. skinny fists like antennas to heaven!" sounds like it would fit your description. There are no lyrics, but there are sound clips of people talking, if I remember correctly... It's a two disc set, and it has four songs, each lasting...

I'd be interested in going in on the group buy for the boards, especially if this is available in a kit form.

well, I upgraded my computer to dual athlon 2800+ mp's, but i'm not quite sure how to go about getting the second processor folding... if anyone knows what to do or could point me in the direction of some directions, that would be great

This list would have definitely helped me when I started here. I think maybe if something could be done similar to the DIY forum with stickies and announcements in a seperate sub-forum, in the Members Lounge, that would clear up all the stickies from the main forum, but still allow the...

i'm gonna be upgrading my processor to a dual athlon MP 2800+ (currently I only have one 2000+ in my computer) and we're getting a laptop soon, so i should have a nice boost in speed.

mine's a pic of the DDR pad that I built

I looked at a few other sites, and the shipping was all around $25

What is the world coming to? Is the order of numbers no longer sacred? Is 2 now in the place once occupied by the number 1? My perfect view of the world is shattered. There is no reason to live.
