Actually, that's exactly what I'm going to try. I'll be taking my laptop out to my car shortly.
I had no idea tapes were so old school.
What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

Stephanie, if you just need to listen to it, try seeing if you can do it in someone's car. That's the only place I can think of to find a cassette recorder.

That still doesn't fix the problem of it being recorded as a slow speed. All cars will play it fast.

Yeah, I just now tried playing it, recording it via GarageBand, and then slowing it down, but it didn't work. It was still gibberish, but slower. I assume GB was intended to be used like that.
eta: I'm trying Jon's suggestion now.

Did everyone see the new iMacs, Mac Minis, and MacBooks? There's also the new Magic Mouse.

I admit that I'm totally trying to do this under pressure, but is there an easy way to slow down my clip? The answer isn't jumping out at me.
eta: I found "change tempo without changing pitch" but obviously, I want to change the pitch.
etaa: nevermind. i guess I just had to ask out loud.

The Magic Mouse looks excellent.

I'll be overhauling my computer with the arrival of Windows 7. I've already cleared off most everything on the hard drives that are going to be taken out of the computer. I have an Intel X-25M SSD drive that will be the system drive. What I'm trying to figure out is where the page file should go. On the SSD drive? On the mechanical drive (a 7200rpm Seagate)? Or just turn it off completely and assume 8GB of RAM is sufficient?
I need Linux for some things I do and that's the other decision. Ubuntu 9.10 or OpenSuse 11.2, both coming out soon.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I'd probably just let Windows 7 manage it on the primary drive at first, and see what happens. You can always turn it off/move it.

My concern with the primary drive is adding unnecessary write cycles to the SSD. I could just see if there is a performance impact with moving it. My theory is that with 8GB RAM putting the pagefile on the slower drive won't have any real impact on performance, but I was curious if anyone has had any experience with that kind of setup.
