It's fun to stay at the

This from someone who has "????????????" in their sig and "]{42u24" in their profile?

Or I could just randomly click and type things and move my mouse around until I got music.

Dang, hadn't thought of that. Most people have monitors, though, don't they? As well as keyboards and mice. Although, I could become a gargoyle:

That's about half right.

Welcome to yesterday (Alright, it was more like 5 hours ago. Still.)

Yeah, the McIntosh was just an example, I have no intention of getting it. But basically, any of the higher-end self-ripping standalone media players. Perhaps an Olive Opus or Symphony would've been a better example -- basically, a player I could bring that already had some subset of my library. And that's a good point about meets -- nowadays, I could easily fit 48 or however many CD's onto the hard-drive space. So the externals would stay at home.

So...I've been thinking. I need to stop dragging all my CD's around with me everywhere. Especially to meets, and to friends' places, when I need a very specific subset of my CD's -- the ones with which I'm most familiar and like. My "test" CD's. So what's the best recourse? I'm thinking: laptop->DAC, perhaps external hard drive->laptop->dac. I was thinking about something like a hard-drive-based digital media player (basically, an external hard drive with a play button): ...or perhaps even: (Obviously, there are more entry-level-priced equivalents.) But I haven't heard anything really about the hard-drive based ones, anyone heard any of these that they could recommend? Or do you think laptop + DAC + external hard drive would be the way to go?

Alternatively, is it possible that our personal like or dislike of a particular MOT is shaded by our selfsame opinions of his product, and the way he handles criticism, and perhaps business?

I laughed.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One says to the other, "is it just me, or does this taste funny?"

No, it's probably got one of those subwoofer things that is just a vibrator that you place against the back of your neck, and as a result, you can't see the wires that are really draped down his back.

Is there a reverse

Yes, sorry, thanks for the correct...Spring Mill Bread Co. FOTM raisin cookies.

No, I think he wants yours.

Also, doesn't the EL-P automatically take the laser light equivalent of VTA into effect, so you don't even need a remote-controlled VTA adjustment?

Nice.
