n_maher Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 They arrived! Yay Nate! DOTU Bi-Wire Shorties are now hooked up to the Harbeths and are showing a nice improvement in separation, extension and detail over the single pair with crap jumpers. Thanks again Nate, these are awesome. Pics or ban DOTU! Seriously though, how did the shortened tails work out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrion Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 I decided to upgrade to a MacBook 2.4 stock with 250 gb hd and 2 gb ram. Vista Ultimate installed using Boot Camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltron Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 No camera here today, so pics will have to wait. Honestly, it works out just fine but I think that it may have been slightly better to leave them the same length. No worries, though, it is not a problem at all and they sound great with the Harbeths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyrion Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 Congrats, and how do you like it? I just started playing around with it. So far I like it. I really like the feel of the keyboard. It's the stiffest notebook I've owned. When I pick it while open by the corner, there is no flex. David, congrats on the HD2. Al, congrats on the speaker cables. My rig at home and office are outfitted with Nate IC/speaker cable. The power cords are courtesy of GE Audio. Both these guys make top notch cables.

n_maher Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 i'm thinking about getting a macbook air. i don't think i'd really use it, but i want one. lots of money just to want it. I'm lusting after a Macbook Pro. Right now I wish I could sell both my laptops and just get a single MBP but I'd take a beating on both so it's going to have to be 5 years or so before I get to realize that dream. I don't get the Air really, sure it's light but the battery life isn't great and the lack of an optical drive is a real turnoff. Maybe if they improve it in the next generation I'll like it more but for now I'd pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrion Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 I like the MBA but now that I have the MB, I'm not sure, I would need anything more or less in the case of the MBA. I have no use for a bigger screen than 13". I kind of wish they brought back a MB in the form of the 12" PB. I was disappointed that the MB didn't come with the video adapter. Now I have to make another trip to the Apple Store before I can connect to my office monitor. I need another bluetooth mouse anyway so not a big deal.

tyrion Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 thank you. how's the new glass track/click pad? I still have to get used to the mac track pad since I'm used to a windows comp and having the ability to tap. So far, I like it. Especially two finger scrolling.

n_maher Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 the deal with it is that it's so light, you don't think twice to always have it with you. You could end up like the reviewer who threw it away with the Sunday Times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_maher Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 if i remember correctly, the one who threw it away was a female. Maybe there was more than one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_maher Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 no, same one. i believe that the excuse was that the reviewer's wife threw it away with the paper. Ahhhh, you're probably right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aardvark baguette Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 i'm thinking about getting a macbook air. i don't think i'd really use it, but i want one. lots of money just to want it. Same here, especially after all the upgrades it just got. Its funny, alot of people seem to think it got hardly any upgrade because it looks the same, but basically every major component was upgraded significantly.
