The Monkey

And call out the idiots on their BS.

Dan, thanks for those impressions. One of the things I realized is driving me crazy over at the other place is that it's simply amateur hour.

^How'd the meeting go?

heh, I agree with that. So annoying that the D5000 apparently is the reference can in most of the HF comparisons.

Is the HeadRoom Ultra DAC warm, bright, down the middle? More importantly, musical?

They talk, too!

Little Monkey's Birthday. I'm sorry to have missed the gang, but this was a good day:

Cool, thanks. I ordered flats automatically.

Is the HF2 shipping with bowls or flats?

Hops, How does it compare to the Ayre? EDIT: Also, are you feeling good about keeping your HD800 order?

Setting up for the birthday party.

I'm very interested in impressions of the HR Balanced Ultra DAC or whatever its called.

What are reverse diffs?

Thanks guys. I'll try Fetch first.

You guys always come through, so now I'm looking for the best easiest to use Mac FTP client.

x2. Tried to get people to do their jobs and make decisions, cleaned out my closet, was cranky.

Sadly and bitterly, no. My son's 3rd Birthday won out (i.e., my wife did a number with the guilt).

MOAR not enough bass.

Nate, I think that's a very sound strategy. Throw a Beta22/HD800 combo in there while you're at it. You'll be my ears at CanJam! Do you think the conductors will be difficult to strip like with the HD650 cable?

It seems to me that most of the jokers who have reviewed the 800 over there so far do not have a 'stat rig. Therefore, I will throw out all of their opinions.

naaman, you should tell Ray that you're milspec.

Ken, believe me, you and I are on the same page. If he has a fever tonight, I'm booking a flight.

My son got sent home with a fever yesterday putting the Most Important Birthday Party of All Time in jeopardy. Since I'm missing CanJam for this, my wife and son are going to go through with this damn party even if they are both bedridden. No, I'm not bitter.

Here are the tagging/organizing packages that I came across. I haven't really kicked the tires on any of them except for DevonThink because my wife refuses to learn any other piece of software. DevonThink seems very powerful, but with a steep learning curve, which pisses me off. The others seem pretty basic and useful in some ways. DEVONthink 2.0 Yep Bare Bones Software | Yojimbo Let me know if any of those are what you're looking for.

Jay, right now I'm just scanning and filing manually. But I know of a few decent options out there for Mac. Are you using a Mac? EDIT: oops...you posted while I was dawdling. I'll post some suggestions shortly.
