What did you do today?
That sucks, Monkey-man. Comsat used to have their annual lay-offs right around Thanksgiving, too. My dad espoused the theory that it would save in their holiday party budget as well as everything else end-of-year -related.

JH Audio stuffs
Historically, as soon as people get theirs, they stop posting for a while, and then when they return, it's never as much as they used to, so...please post every once in a while to let us know you're still alive.

What are you listening to Part Two
What about fusion? Al Di Meola (specifically Elegant Gypsy, Casino), Jeff Beck (Wired, Blow by Blow, There and Back), Return to Forever (Romantic Warrior)? What about the old melodic stuff like The Birth of the Cool (Miles Davis) and Somethin' Else (Cannonball Adderley)? What about Cookin'/Steamin'/Walkin'/&c.? And yes, I did know that, had forgotten, I think we-all even had this exact same conversation before. (Peter: defends Nate's taste as varietous; someone else: No argument, it's just that he hates jazz; Nate: Yeah, I hate jazz.)

What are you two talking about? Nate has probably the most varied tastes of anyone on this board, and that's coming from a contender.

To me, it's all about real estate. 13" == 1280x800 15" == 1440x900 ~= 27% more real estate, so I would throw that in your oven bag and shake it. Me, personally, I intend to get two -- one of the tiny Sony Vaio Lifestylers with the 1600x768 8" screen, and a huge HP dv8t with the full 1080p 18" screen.

Audio Technica W1000X
I'm in for a pair, though I remain skeptical it's "L3000 awesome". If it's even 1/6 as awesome, it's still pretty fucking awesome.

Using a USB drive and DAC simultaneously?
Clean off your hard drive?/Reinstall the OS? The other thought is, don't run it off the external hard drive, use the internal -- load the files on the internal, then play (swapping out recently used and expected not to use again for a while files). I.E. Dew et, but do the above if you run into snags.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Would anybody be interested in a ceramic headphone stand?
Aren't all keg-pulls somewhat phallic/dildo-like? I'm pretty sure I've seen that in a video. Girls (And Beer) Gone Wild or something.
