I really like pbase, seems pretty reasonable to me and offers unlimited linking/bandwidth as far as I know. I can't remember the name of the other one that a lot of the photogs that I know use, if I remember it I'll post again.

A quick Google only turned up two sellers in the US, one for $1699ish and the other was $1800.

I believe the question was WTF? Play by the rules! What is best in life?

30 Gig Gen1 Zune from woot. For $99 it seemed like a good deal for a player to even temporarily replace my Ipod. And don't worry Dusty, it's all black.

How much is too much?

boomana's forum?

In all seriousness a few comments: I can imagine that they'd be wicked fussy to get setup right given that no two heads are the same. Battery powered, no thanks! I think I read that you can use them sans battery but I wonder how that amplification is bypassed once you take the batts out. Pretty lofty entry price.

No thanks?

No F'ING way. So begins the era of Nate finally finishing a bunch of stuff that he's been putting off. I've got around 100' of cabling to build that's long overdue and I wanted it to look nice and last, so I ordered the good stuff. No more techflex for me, no more worrying about colors, as Dusty would say the only color worth using is black.

Well, they've cooked 4 of his posts so far so my guess is the ban stick can't be far behind. Let him argue, I think I can handle his wit and charm. Nobody messes with the head-case crew. On topic, there is no single, comprehensive source for tube and hybrid amps for the simple reason that there are so many variations between different amps that it would be impossible. If you'd like information about the amp you think you're getting why not just tell us what it is and see if we can help?

Sorry boom, I couldn't help myself, maybe I have a weakness for assholes named Paul? He was the walrus, coocoocachoo.

This post would never happen on postjack's forum.

I think Katie has a fantastic voice that is ultimately, totally and completely let down by tragically lame accompanying music. I really enjoy vocal centric music (Joanna Newsom, Rachael Yamagata, Jenny Owen Youngs, etc, etc.) but the music on Pictures is bad to the point of distraction for me.

I guess I'm glad my reply to this thread just got lost to the intraweb.

300' or so of nylon multifilament sleeving in various sizes, and a couple hundred feet of heatshrink. I simply don't know how to order small quantities of anything.

Pfft, without her Heroes is lacking in eye candy. In all seriousness it has to be the male-heaviest cast to come along in a long time.

Yup, but I could do without the Mexican twins. Where the hell has Niki been?!?!?

I thought that this week's episode was much better than the premier.

Fucking Cocksuckers.

Yeah, the ever-changing config this is a bitch - I expected it out of Dell/Gateway/HP but for some reason thought that Lenovo/IBM was a little different. And I'm trying not to shoot for the bleeding edge with this laptop, just to get something that will serve my current needs and have enough left in the tank so that it doesn't obsolete itself in a year or two. If they made a 15" Macbook I'd take a long hard look, but I don't think that 13, especially in widescreen aspect ratios would cut it.

Well, last night I revisited MAC land to see if abandoning the 17" screen requirement would allow to reconsider. Even buying a refurbished 15" Macbook Pro represents about a 33% price increase over the Lenovo, which I just fail to be able to justify.

Good grief, overnight the options for configuring a T61p changed.

Me too, it works maybe 1 out of every 5 visits.
