Just on general principle, I wouldn't fix what ain't broke. I'd send them a stop work email/phonecall/whatever ASAP. Especially since you're doubtful that you're getting the originals back.

It was inevitable -- if they didn't do it, someone else would've. Besides, Auto-Tune The News freakin' rocks.

It's a crime by omission.

They might just check you in if you did that! Their loss, though.

Based on the reasoning I espoused earlier, it makes sense -- louder --> larger excursions for each driver, or same excursions with more drivers. So theoretically, it should sound better at "normal" listening volumes. Even smaller excursions == even moar linearer. The only problem that I can foresee (thinking out loud here -- which is always dangerous, it's kind of like chewing with your mouth open) is that you get to the point of -- if you listen quietly -- not having enough energy to get the drivers moving at all (isn't there some minimum?). I have no idea if the maths corroborate this -- someone with experience with line drive arrays should tell me if there's no problem listening as quietly as possible. Boy am I glad I didn't get the JH13 yet -- now I can go straight to (not) wanting the JH16. Basterds, all o' youse.

I didn't know his eyeballs came out! I'm going to have nightmares about that, now.

Mostly harmless.

Yeah, let's just skip 7.

Wait, what? 8 drivers? How many does the JH13 have, again? Is it custom also?

It depends on what your definition of "version" is.

Gained a little weight? Entirely in facial hair, mind you.

This is actually the closest to what advice I would give, were I serious. They really are very close. Though there are scores of people who like one and not the other, so they must be very close to the line. The Line == that threshold of quality/fidelity/musicality/value/whathaveyou/whatnot/whatever below which we care not to go.

I have. I wasn't criticizing, I was just laughing at the fact. Have you seen the trailer for The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia? There's a scene where one of the guys says, "you want to know what the mating call is for girls in West Virginia?" He then shakes a bottle of pills. (I forget what kind -- wasn't exactly taking notes, you know.)

I stir in both directions. Turbulence, you see. My response would have been, "not and want to drink it!"

Well...except...did they return Power Mac support?

Higher alcohol content trend It cracks me up that West Virginia and Alabama are leading the way.

I was thinking more along the lines of androids. Or hired actors.

The trick is to have a hot guy and gal in every class who always attend, then everyone would attend.

I don't know you anymore.

Especially with the up/down/left/right motion -- that's definitely correct either way. EDIT: Oh, look, there's 1-finger flicks, and 2-finger flicks, as well. I wonder if there are entire-hand flicks, or do you think that would require a larger interface?

Okay, maybe next time I should read less haphazardly. I didn't realize you were bemoaning the faults of the system rather than glorifying them.

Katatonia, Night is the New Day -- thanks to Colin for raising my attention to this one.

I think it says "finger flick".

Wait, what? When did they stop making unscented? (wanders off to do some research)

Okay, you lost me right there. "Knowledge of the subject matter" should be valued above all else. Not the sheepskin, the actual knowledge. And that's what education should be fore. Were there some correlation between the sheepskin and the actual knowledge (as grawk -- and I -- would have it), well, that would just make things better.
