Is weight a big consideration?

I don't see anyway this won't be a huge pain in the ass. The only good way to do it is inside the cup which means you're going to have to keep it very small (like the Senn connector on the 800s) and those things are a whore to work with in my opinion. I'd tell those folks to get over the cable nonsense.

I love my PS3, it's a great multi-media PC and occasional gaming system and excellent BR player.

Happy Birthday, Todd!

I am a smart man and made sure to book a hotel with a Starbucks in the lobby and packed my own bottle of Gentleman Jack. Not that 'bucks is good coffee, but better than many traveling alternatives.

Unfortunately not, there's the occasional in-class assignment (workshop) and a site visit to a local facility.

Just barely, Haj, just a few flakes a minute. And it's 5 days worth of slides @ 8hrs a day with a few snooze-worthy videos thrown in.

Nice, Mike. I'm watching flurries outside right now as I prep to depart tonight for another week of training for work. This time in (not-so-scenic) southern Connecticut for a class that has been best described as death by power point. I can't wait.

100% concurrence. I would not half-ass anything involved with this project.

She's a brutal taskmaster. That said, recabling the 701s is a bit of PITA. Removing the metal screen without damaging the headphones can be tricky but if you can manage that the rest is easy. You do need to trace colored wires to the plug since AKG is fond of not using a standard. If I was asked to make a recommendation I'd get something like cardas or mogami mini quad cable, strip the rubber cover, the copper braided shield and resheath it in nylon multifilament and terminate as desired. And Dusty's right, I'm pretty much retired at this point and not building anything.

Dual boot? I used to do it all the time with my macbook for win-only programs. Otherwise, a cheap little netbook or something like that might be a reasonable option.

Happy Birthday, Gene! Like Mike I will be forced to have a drink in your honor tonight and toast to your good health.

You still got to spank me, Boo, isn't that worth something.

Happy Birthday, Haj!

We're not interested.

Crappy, you already sold your existing DAC?

If storage capacity is needed both of you should take a long look at the hybrid drives that Marc posted about in the Macce thread. I've got one in my laptop now and it's working well.

It's one of the few pieces (perhaps the only) of Jazz that I own.

Happy Birthday, Bryan!

I hear you, even though I'm not even 10 years her senior.

I wouldn't bother with an enclosure, I just use one of these: Newegg.com - Computer Parts, PC Components, Laptop Computers, LED LCD TV, Digital Cameras and more! You may be able to find it cheaper by a few bucks or of if time is not of the essence I could simply send you mine to use for a little while.

It's mildly shocking to see the iPad discounted. I wonder if Steve is worried about sales numbers?
