He was more the type to enjoy ideas but who found actual implementations boring. I could be mistaken, I'm not sure how much of the character Alan Turing in Cryptonomicon was real and how much was fictionalized.

  19. like fish
  20. Still, a good dac is a valuable thing, and having the option of fewer things in the signal path if you want to use a different amp seems helpful.
  21. That'd eat a huge percentage of the market for those amps
  22. You know, a PS3000 with port covers might be a good alternative to moving to a different room
  23. If you think that this place is only about dishing, perhaps it's because you haven't ventured into the other topics? There's a lot of discussion going on elsewhere, and people do spend some time dishing in the various off topic threads because it's been verbotten for so long...
  24. me either... [me=grawk]throws stuff at a guy in maryland.[/me]
