Drew, we need to start a business installing "high end" audio systems for really rich, really stupid people. We buy high end for the visible stuff, tell them we bought a million dollars worth of audio cables and accessories, use lamp cord or whatever, and pocket a million bucks per job, on top of our fee.

As long as I get my cut for suggesting it to you in the first place!

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

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Thanks, Gud. The problem is with my laptop, though, and both USB ports are not working. I think the PSI thingie might be the answer.

Perkins there are tons of free out of copyright books available in iBooks. Assuming the iPad has the same apps as the touch, my 4 year old loves Fruit Ninja. I frequently find myself saying, "Stop slicing fruit and come over here."

It is astonishing to me that anyone would ever even consider paying $60,000 for an audio cable
For crazy cable prices, check out this site. They have silver cable and palladium cable.

A 4' speaker cable is $7300. And that is with spade ends. Not even a fancy connector! A fool and his money are soon parted, right? A buddy asked "how many of those does he expect to sell?!?" I responded that he needs one costumer a year to make a basic living. Figure the dude has a surround system, a CD player, phonograph, video player of some sort. Between the interconnect cables, and speaker cables to the surrounds, the dude would make a fortune!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Perkins,

What category of apps are you looking for. I just got a refurb iPad at a great price so I recently loaded mine up.

I can give you (limited) game recs, productivity recs,media recs.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What category of apps are you looking for.

Games and productivity, mostly, I guess, plus any cooking or health apps.

I don't have an iPad, but on the iPhone I'm pretty addicted to Angry Birds and Plants vs Zombies. Robot Unicorn Attack is also pretty awesome, but it's a battery hog.
