Salt Peanuts

Same here. Though even if it became available, I'd have to re-train myself on using it since I haven't really touched it since I started using Mac few years ago.

Forgot to add Tori Amos - Under the Pink Nope, they're all new Hip-O reissues. I've browsed through SH forum and the general consensus was they used the same masters. Also, I would have had to pay a whole lot more for them if I bought Rhino reissues. As it is, with the exception of Ben Folds stuff, I basically paid for only shipping & handling for the CDs.

Ben Folds - Songs for Goldfish Ben Folds - Songs for Silverman (vinyl) Ben Folds - Super D Hiromi - Another Mind Hiromi - Time Control Alison Krauss - Forget About It Alison Krauss - So Long, So Wrong Elvis Costello - My Aim Is True Elvis Costello - This Year's Model Elvis Costello - Armed Forces Elvis Costello - Get Happy!! Elvis Costello - Almost Blue Elvis Costello - Trust Elvis Costello - Imperial Bedroom Elvis Costello - Punch The Clock Elvis Costello - Goodbye Cruel World Elvis Costello - Blood & Chocolate Elvis Costello - King of America Elvis Costello - Rock & Roll Music Elvis Costello - The Best of Elvis Costello: The First 10 Years All this for less than $90. I should have them in a week or two, and then I'll actually have decent copies of Costello (all I have now are crappy mp3 rips).

I wish I still had my old pair. I don't know what I was thinking when I sold them.

So after figuring out how to make Finder assigned to every space, I'm going to give the Spaces a shot again. I wish there were easier and quicker way to assign each app to a space without needing to go into the system preference, though.

Did you get an older pair?

Yeah, I thought about just going with 2GB for my iMac, instead of maxing it to 3GB (I have the previous gen iMac) since going 2GB would've only cost me $60 as opposed to $130 for 3GB. In the end, I just maxed mine out. Oh yeah, I'm liking the new look and feel as well - I forgot about it since I've already gotten used to it.

I meant to type "I'm now running it with 3Gb of memory...."

I've posted some of my initial impressions on another thread, but figured I'd start another thread since there are few Mac users on the forum. Few things - The installation went smoothly without a hitch, even though I took a risk and chose the Upgrade option. No reboot or DVD mounting issues here. Safari runs much better than the beta (duh). No random crashes in middle of surfing and I think it's marginally faster than beta, but I could be imagining that. Stacks are stupid. It may be useful if you only have handful of document/downloads, but that's not the case here. I like the Tiger's folder on Dock better. I love Quick Look - I make multiple revisions of same documents and it makes finding the right one easier. On the similar note, I really love Cover Flow for my picture folder. I'm using Time Machine, but I've no idea how well it works since I've had no need to restore any files with it. The initial backup takes a long time, though subsequent backups are quick and not noticeable, for the most part. I like that it automatically backs up my 2nd external drive which contains my music. It supposedly can be used with network drives, but I don't know for sure. Transparent menu bar could be annoying with some background. I like the improvements on the Mail. To Do and Notes are nice additions since now I can add notes/to do list within Mail. I know it's not a big deal for most people, but it's useful for me. After using it for few days, Spaces is a no go for me. It has too many annoying quirks, and it feels bit unfinished for me. I may use it still if future updates gets rid of the quirks. Oh, and I'm not running it with 3GB of memory and it definitely likes the extra memory. I was running it initially with 1GB and it wasn't slow or sluggish by any means, but the extra memory has made a HUGE difference, at least in my case. So anyone else here upgraded yet?

Same here then I had to give up since I was at work.

I've been waiting for someone to post this, thanks Ian!

Jeebus those are expensive. Although not as bad as MoFi branded ones.

...and 003 already sold his pair. http://www.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=268706

If I can take it apart without breaking it or damaging it, I'll see what I can do. I should have it by end of the week.

Luminous Audio Axiom

Damn, Nate, that Easter bunny looks really wired.

I vaguely remember KG talking about a portable stat amp over on HF at some point. Of course, it is entirely possible that I imagined that.

Being a mac user, not much of an option there, unless I get myself an external unit or stand-alone unit.

Thanks guys. I'll give Taiyo Yuden CD-R's are shot. I really wish I could pick them up locally as stores around here usually just carried Memorex.

Interesting. I saw that couple of days ago and was wondering if it was yet another marketing "remaster" or not.

Just looking for some recommendations for good CD-R that I could use for burning music, since most of CD-R's I buy are crappy generic ones I use for data-related purposes.

Young Elvis or Old Elvis?

Yeah, I still don't know what possessed me to buy the PSP instead of just getting an Apple Care. I must have been drunk or something.

It's been sent in as a lemon, but they (corporate, I'm assuming) have to accept it as a lemon before it's actually considered a lemon and I get a replacement. Yeah, I know, it's stupid and I told the customer service guy as much. Why all of that is supposed to take 6 weeks is beyond me.

Ah, got it. My favorite was when it first went in for repair because it wouldn't stay on for more than 5 seconds and wouldn't hold any charge. They returned it to me after replacing its battery, but never tested to see if that actually fixed the problem. And since I'm typing this, it didn't. Every time I take it back, I wonder why I didn't just get an Apple care for it.
