Speaking of flattering, just saw the following IE8 commercial named the 'Worst Tech Commercial Ever.' Not sure how I missed it. Go IE! [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-9Mjm-Hohc]YouTube - O.M.G.I.G.P. - Internet Explorer 8[/ame]

JP, I think that Micro Center deal is still going on. And of course there's there is the refurb MacBook option if you want a little portability (with possible Duet fan noise issue you know about).

Heading back myself:

Hug Me Pillow on sale for $23 over at Overstock.com

I think our dance steps are still a little clumsy. Must figure out who leads.

More here.

Sorry to work those thumbs a bit more, but could you efficiently let me know where I discussed individuals and 'likes'? Now communities, sites, body of reviews, etc., over time, are where inclusions & omissions are more interesting, and possibly telling, no? But again, my references were to years ago.

Nice distillation there Grawk. Err... who said it was?

Always seemed a bit racist-y for audiophile circles to ignore Rap ("SQ!"), while Punk, old Metal, etc. are regularly brought up. Maybe not in skin color, but at least in musical heritage (Rock v. Jazz most obviously). Note how the rockish Beaties were an exception of the silence years ago. And I always think of Robert Christgaus' great gateway review... Course this is all decades ago now. Time for some morning Public Enemy. This Henry Mancini SACD is putting me back to sleep.

Happy Birthday Day! Wow, its been a year already since hunting for In-n-Out near SFO?

Man, I doesn't even appear to be happy with itself.

Ocean's Trilogy (11/12/13) on Blu-ray for sale - $37. Can't tell if the picture quality is a bit poor or reviewers don't understand the intent.

Good to hear about the ERM1s swt61. Which sub will you be using with them? Picked up one of the last RPA2s a few months back (and wish I had bought the RSP2 when I had the chance) and been curious about Emotivas speakers since.

That and the level of sexiness over here.

Hey Laxx, it may be obvious, but if you're anything like me you tend to be in areas where you need WIFI or (not and) 3G. If you're always shutting the other off (so rarely having WIFI and 3G both on - eliminating one searching for signals) at least the 3G bat life improves greatly. Seems an irritating bother, but in practice not really. Settings > Wi-Fi when at getting home/work. Settings > General > Network > Enable 3G when out and about. And of course the opposite to turn the other off.

Anyone guess how much time he needs?

iPod*J isn't happy.

Not true!

swt61, or anyone else, have any thoughts of this for use as SACD player now and Blu-ray player for some point in the future? Also if you can navigate without TV connection (at least after initial setup)? Anyone got a feel for the internal DAC yet (though I see you can output DSD or converted PCM signal)? Received my "priority ordering" email this morning.

It doesn't.
