    Windows vs Mac vs Linux

    If you can afford the hardware, I'd go Mac....actually, I did. Second choice would be a PC running a Linux OS. Third choice would be anything other than a Windows based system. Heck, grab a used laptop on the cheap and slap Ubuntu/Kubuntu on it. Even that would be light years better than a...

    Anyone still use the Yellow comply foam tips with the Shure SE530

    Yellow tips? Nope. I'm simply in love with the Westone Comply tips. Use 'em on my E500 as well as my im716's. Just super comfortable. Tried every tip I could find and even the Shure foamies didn't surpass the Comply tips.

    a question for dremel users

    You didn't say how you'd be using the tool so all I can do is tell you about my experiences with those units. In my business I use these type tools daily and have used Dremel with great success. I've even got one for my dogs nails if you can believe that. Dremel makes a fine product and they're...

    F* the iPhone

    Too many issues...too many limitations. I'll wait for the BB Thunder or Bold.

    Do you prefer to store your library on Mac or PC

    My FLAC files are kept on an external, wirelessly networked HD which can be and is accessed by all my networked machines. I have two Macs and 2 PCs running Linux. No Windows boxes on the network.....thankfully.

    What's the best phone you ever heard out of balanced desktop with DAC

    Had the HR balanced for a brief time along side my Supra XLR so my experience with that one is somewhat limited. At that time, the full sized cans I owned were the PS-1, HD600, HD650, 701 and Denon 5000's. Running balanced I enjoyed the 650's the most while the PS-1's were my hands down...

    64 GB Touch soon?

    Considered a Touch, but the price is still way too high and there's no way I'll do an iPhone with all the issues of late, but especially if Apple is going to start this kind of BS ala Microsoft. iPhone phones home

    Macbook

    I used to hate iTunes on the PC, but on a Mac, it's really quite good. You might give it another extended look now that you're on a mac. As krmathis has pointed out, you can transcode the FLAC files and use iTunes. Btw and somewhat OT, if you haven't discovered it yet, I'd suggest VLC as an...

    How far are you along in your journey?

    Reached that point and sold everything some time ago. Only an ipod and E500 remain. Plan on picking up a set of cans that an iPod can drive adequately but that's it.

    So conflicted... help please

    JMO but I'm not a big fan of portable amps. Just never found the improvements worth the expense and hassle of carrying one around. For me, the IEM straight from the ipod was more than enough while on the move. If I'm going to listen to full sized cans or do some critical listening, I won't be...

    Vista Install Disk

    As others have posted, there are sources for getting Vista. Heck, there are sources for getting keys if you know where to look. Still, if that avenue is too unsavory for you, I'd consider using the Acronis software. I used it to migrate my PC and all its settings to a bigger HD. Couldn't have...

    How many backups is enough?

    I have to agree with HFat on this one. I've got my MBP backed up using both Time Machine and SuperDuper on an external drive, but my real concern is the music I've accumulated. I've spent a good deal of time making sure it's properly organized and tagged so the thought of losing that volume is...

    ok so the itouch and iphone are looking nice now....

    The Touch....perhaps, but no iPhone for me. Reports are coming in about the shortcomings and they're numerous enough to keep me away. I've read of yellow tinted screens, battery life of 4-5 hours on 3G, no copy and paste, no MMS, lackluster camera and no video ability, no flash support and a...

    Anyone have rosters for this game or a source?

    Need some laptop advice.....

    Actually, you're the second one to mention a refurb Mac. As for the ASUS, that keyboard did look awfully small. She's 5'2 and very petite, but that might be an issue. Certainly need to consider that aspect. Thanks for pointing it out to me.

    Need some laptop advice.....

    I've got a student in the family who wants to carry a laptop to class. Given the distance between classes, she finds it easier to chill and study between classes at some of the more convenient study areas which have wireless capability. Unfortunately, her present laptop is a desktop replacement...

    iM716 DIY Pod Removal (aka, Podectomy)

    Finally found some quiet time to do this mod. The results are quite nice. I finally decided the 47ohm resistors hit my sweet spot. Many thanks jSatch. That dongle had been a major annoyance for some time especially during yard work or workouts. Much, much more convenient and comfortable without...
