I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Jon, have you bought a new Mac Mini yet?

Apple looks like it will come out with new Minis soon, and if they come with BluRay drives, I will want to get one, and unload my current Mini.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Yep, I already have it and my old one is currently on eBay. Thanks, though.

iTunes: how to deauthorize computers when they're toast? Can it be done remotely?

You have to deauthorize all you computers to get to the ones you don't have access to anymore, then reauthorize the ones that are still current.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Word is you can also call or email Apple and have them deauthorize just the one you want.

You can go to the iTunes Support page and send them the request.

Hey. New board.

My GF is an English teacher who has developed vocal cord nodules.

We bought her a headset microphone yesterday, with the plan to plug it in to the powered speakers she already has in her classroom. The plan was to go through the computer, which already runs into those speakers.

However, the computer she has in her classroom is crippled - it doesn't have the ability to monitor the Mic input, so there's no way to amplify her sound to get into the speakers.

Now we think we want to skip the computer. So we need a device (I think maybe it's a preamp?) that will take the microphone and up it to levels that can go straight into powered "computer" speakers.

Does such a device exist? Or should we just buy her a portable PA to plug the microphone into?
