OMG, I totally need one of those, too.
We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

Hey. New board.

Yes. Yes that is what I meant.
ThinkGeek is too much fun. It's ben too long since I visited. They no longer have the obfuscated perl t-shirt I used to wear, unfortunately.

ND, you totally need to outfit you Diablo Sound crews with those equalizer shirts.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm kind of cracking up that the women's version of the equalizer shirt is pink and has the equalizer in the shape of a heart.

I'm not sure if this is a Music or a Tech question: I have several ancient cassette tapes that probably have one last play in them before they deteriorate completely. I'd like to put them on the computer so I can love them and squeeze them and call them George forever. My sound card's instructions say it can do that, but what kind of equipment do I need to input the tape info? Also, will this work with a generic cassette player?

Also, my Palm will play MP3s but not WMAs. What do people recommend to convert WMAs to MP3s?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Not a request for help - just a "WTF was he thinking?" sorta' thing....
A guy at a client's office called my boss - he had taken some resumes in Word .doc format, exported them to spreadsheets, and then tried to export the spreadsheet data to an SQL Server database.
Huh? Apparently the tabs in the resumes resulted in the various data being put in various columns without trashing things too much, but the export to SQL didn't work right.

connie, what do you mean by "generic cassette player"? It needs to have some sort of stereo line out.
You will probably need something like this: [link]
It's got two RCA plugs on one end and a stereo 1/8th inch plug on the other. The 1/8th stereo plug goes into the "input" of your sound card and the RCA plugs go in the "line out" plugs of your cassette player.
That's assuming your cassette player has RCA "line out" plugs. If it doesn't, then it gets trickier, but you might be able to use a stereo headphone jack, in which case you'd need a cable with 1/8th inch stereo plugs on both ends.
