Gary Numan -- The Pleasure Principle

I have one of those. It appears to work well.

Only the hoi polloi, Duggeh. The quality can afford front loaders and get to pat themselves on the back for using less water and being vaguely Euro.

Cut your hair and get married already, dammit. Speaking of power pop, did you get the Best of Matthew Sweet that I had up? The Smiths -- Meat Is Murder Rhino reissue vinyl.

I guess she appreciated your F-mount. Giggity!

You're a cold fish, Reks. Sorry, Baggers.

I miss my GS-1.

It's pretty close, but just sounds a little more "natural" straight from the record. Who knows why -- his system setup, my system setup, his A/D, my D/A? Lot of points in the chain.

Chris Bell -- I Am The Cosmos Awesome!

I've picked up a Duet (again) and would like to start playing around with ripping vinyl. Could one of you chaps who've already been down this road please point me in the direction of some decent software for the Mac to facilitate the process? Workflow tips also welcome! Thanks very much.

Morrissey -- Swords Vinyl.

Pine floors?

This makes me turgid. Matte black and shiny chrome FTMFW!

Looks like you Five Finger freaks are about to go mainstream! The Secret Diary of Steve Jobs : The money has finally made Sergey nuts

Animal Collective - Merriweather Post Pavilion Vinyl.

Don't forget the H
