Easy enough to catch up on his career. Was just in a discussion of The Hustler yesterday. A good place to start. Is sad. Marpessa Dawn passed away also.

Any chance to get that stream link?

As we discussed earlier in this thread... looks like Apple may [this is all rumor] drop the Firewire 400 ports on new laptops, but likely a compatible adapter will be available for use with the 800. AppleInsider | Next-gen MacBook, MacBook Pro spotted in matching outfits

How many cups? For fun I just plugged a couple HD580s into a Grado Y-splitter and then Grado 1/4-mini adapter and the Pico handled them easily. You should be fine with two Denons or very similar impedance/efficiency (or out of balanced equally with preferred listening levels) cans (as long as they're not crazy power hungry).

No disagreement here.

Reminds one of Jobs comments on the Segway. Ah too bad. Android will hopefully overcome the traditional manufacture/service limitations, but I do wish they played a tad stronger hardball like Jobs did a couple years ago. Software openness is definitely one of Googles strengths, but controlling the hardware is one of Apples.

Funny thing is I prefer T-Mobile. Service about the same in my area and prices usually better than Verizon, AT&T, etc. Anyway, here are some walk through vids: Video: Android walkthrough on T-Mobile G1 - Engadget

See here. Non-DRM MP3s.

Looks like AudioArtCable has IC-1s on clearance right now too. Had good luck with their IC-3s. Hmmm.

Anything besides Blue Jeans LC-1 ICs I should consider for $50 or under a pair?

For those in the Bay Area maybe time to see ACTs production of Tom Stoppard's Rock 'n Roll. Syd and Floyd are basically characters.

Shout out to any other Girls & Corpses magazine readers? Okay, I have to give Oddee their due.

Yeah keep us informed. Curious of your experiences. Although I haven't yet convinced myself the size (main selling point for me) difference between a net/cloudbook and my MacBook is enough to warrant, I have been following the MSI/Asus/Aser/HP/Dell offerings. Found out yesterday my employer offers a Dell Mini discount. $7 off!

So I'm considering running two amps off a single source, and was wondering if anyone had any experience with and could comment on signal degradation with Ys/2-for-1 adapters such as ... ? Was avoiding a switch box if possible.
