MBA 11" owners - having lived with them a while now, how do you feel subjectively about the screen size and battery life? I've read all the info about its specs, the testing, real life results, maximizing battery life and such, but I'm wondering how you've felt about it having lived with it. Are you thrilled with the moblity and the compromise in battery life and screen size is just worth it, or do you wish you'd have chosen the 13" now?

Nice! Interested to know how the NAD sounds.

Does that p value vary according to intoxicant used, i.e. beer vs whiskey vs gin vs cocktail of choice? Or is that taken into account in one of the non-Bayesian equations?

I like that ...

This, but for medicine. I think. I don't do research, but all the journal articles state the p value, and if it's p<0.05, then they'll say it's 'statistically significant'. If it's close, but no cigar, they'll say not statistically significant, but compelling, further studies indicated. And who knows how the FDA decides these things. I think they're supposed to compile enough studies that show statistical significance, but who knows what is 'enough.' Maybe it's whether the amount of money the drug company pays them is statistically significant? Great! Let us know how it sounds! Though ... I'm not sure Dinny actually recommended it. Certainly not to a degree of statistical significance. Could be wrong, though. Could someone run an ANOVA on that?

Yum, looks really good! Though I did think it might be reservations for a plane trip somewhere!

Happy Anniversary! Where do you plan to go, if you don't mind?

What Shelly said. Get well, everyone! Me- Museum of Science and Industry with the family. Pretty cool.

I have seen it in HDTracks. But since I can't play it, I never bothered. I do like 24/96, though! I suppose if I could play it, I'd probably download a track out of curiosity. But I've been happy enough with 16/44.1 and 24/96 through the PWD for my main rig and recently, though the Arcam rDAC for my bedroom rig, that I've never had the itch. Teufelshunde, what have you heard in 24/192, and what did you notice about it?

To my knowledge, p<.05 in a drug study is still the accepted standard for a drug's effect to be likely enough to not be due to chance, and therefore be acceptable data to evaluate for a drug's efficacy. Arbitrarily chosen, but still used.

I believe the PWD Mk2 has 24/192 via USB. But the Mk2 costs more, putting it it of your price range. You could always upgrade later, if you felt it necessary. I've actually never heard 24/192, so don't really have an opinion. I think you should have a listen to a handful of DACses that seem to fit the bill, and you'll just know what's right for you. http://www.psaudio.com/products/audio/media-players/perfectwave-dac/

There's a lot of people here who know way more than I do about DACs. I've been very happy with the Perfect Wave DAC. A bit over your price range, but not too much if bought used, like I did. I like my Arcam rDAC for a budget DAC. The Lavry gets a lot of love around here, but I haven't heard it. The new NAD DAC looks very promising. Doug is coming out with a DAC soon. Lots of good options at that price, but you probably want to hear them before spending that kind of cash. Enjoy the journey!

@boomana: We'll just have to call you Barbie from now on!

Makes sense. I think I don't care, but it's one of those things where once I see it, I may suddenly have to have it!

What for?

x3 I'd definitely like more horsepower, don't need more rez.

Sorry, Nate and Dan! Puking kids is the worst. Hope they feel better soon!

Rock on! I felt the same way about the DSHA-1 ... haven't heard the L-2. I ended up buying one, too. Time has only increased my appreciation for it. I was enjoying it last night with Beck's Sea Change. Just great! Hope you had a good visit, by the way! Glad you got some 'za!

Glad to help! What did you think?

Wow, that's really nice!

Sorry Bryan, that sucks. Motrin 600mg. And the whiskey, of course! Hope you feel better.

Happy birthday!

Prolly depends a lot on many other factors. For instance, did anyone bring pizza, bacon, or whiskey? Or scantily clad women with big tubes?

Aren't you going to keep an attic sensor attached to detect secret ninja attacks in the middle of the night?
