I likey Haven't had much time to crank it, but its clean and impressive for such a small package. Seems to drive the 650's OK from the headphone out. I'm particularly impressed by the internal architecture (software DSP crossover feeding separate DACS->digital amps for tweeters + woofers + built in (software) EQ correction curve for physical response of system, to keep it flat for as low as it can go). Clever stuff, and has potential for enhancement down the line. See the white paper, here

Since it's not painted Dodger Blue, we have a good chance of getting objective impressions.

I am looking forward to hearing it during speaker hours at this very formal meet we have coming up.

Yeah, no firewire, bummer.

Wow. I am so glad I bought my previous generation MacBook when I did. For me, FahrWahr is non-optional.

Skor bar. Yum.

Nice Chris. Looking forward to hearing the 9 and 10 compared in Tampa next month.

I just bought an iMac 24", 3.06GHz, 4GB ram, with wireless keyboard on the education discount. This one will replace the lamp-shade iMac we have had since those came out. Psyched for many reasons, not least of which will better HC surfing at home.

Mocha Mudslide Ice Cream - in a cup with a cone. It was just too nice out today during lunch not to walk into downtown, stare at the river for a bit and forget that the world is going to hell in a bucket.

If it is in a bucket of Mocha Mudslide ice cream it wouldn't be so bad, but the bucket turns out to be full of shit.

A pair of these

A little smaller (7uf)... that's about as much as I'll go for a cap.

Just ordered a Baikal IZH 46M, a cheap (compared to similar air guns ) but high precision air gun.

what does it shoot?

Looks neat but what do you do with such an air gun? What is the deal with the bar in front of the trigger?

It's the cocking mechanism used to charge the gun prior to firing according to the manual.

Started playing around with a Dell Mini tonight.

Reminds me of my old Daisy. Learned to shoot with that air pistol. I'll have to see if its still kicking around somewhere back home.

Thanks for picking up all those goodies, Grahame! I will bring a few things too, but let me know if you think of something in particular.

I don't have them yet, but Nate just sent me some pics of the DOTU Bi-Wire Shorties he just twisted up. Man do they look sweet, and they are going to be great with the Harbeths and HR stands. Eye candy for the masses:
