I'm afraid our Beagle ran away... ?

At least he didn't say "Thanks, Mom!" ?

Gee, that one sure looked familiar! ('Cause I posted this version a while back! ?)

Wow, those were baaaaaaad!

Well, based on YOUR choice, I'm apparently a lover and you're a fighter! ? (And neither of us appears to be doing a great job at either! ?

Thanks for that. It led me to his follow-up video which led me to several from Linus (Linus Tech Tips - have watched this channel for years!). Thinking back, since both the company I worked for and the one I'm going to work for pushes Dell, it reminded me of similar support calls I've had with them. Ok, back to trying to figure out WHAT I need and WHERE to get it I guess! ?

Even moreso if it was done by this pair!

Possibly? ?

It's about time to have a Utah Saints, KLF, 808 State, etc. weekend me thinks! ?

Absolutely! I think it will save me a ton of money by NOT seeing it every time I come down here! ?

Bill has become... comfortably numb? ??

It probably should "Left Here Left Now" now...

Except that the former is (usually) a one-and-done, while the latter tends to accomplish the former with a million cuts! ?

Dang it Bob! How do you do that? Juuuuuuuust as I'm clicking on the Submit Reply button I see the "Notes has replied" pop-up! Oh well. I'm leaving it. ?

My last entry was so much fun, let's do it again! Jump into the Fire > Jump & Fire (just the songs this time) ?

A better question would be "Why do you still need Windows 7?" ? (That said, my current DAW server box is still running SONAR Producer v4 on XP! ? )

I considered going the multiple OS route, but I have to use more than one at a time too often... Also, thanks to the scarcity of video cards and other chipsets, I will probably not attempt to build my own from scratch (my usual approach). Although I will still want to talk with Jim Roseberry here, it appears I can get a good discount on Dell computers through the new company and that has some additional benefits: I've heard that Dell stocked up on video cards prior to the "mining shortage," but you only can get one if you buy a system. We'll see, more research is necessary!

Better lame than ever! ?

Here's my "Two for Tuesday" special for this! ? The Cure Pornography (Full album) & Def Leppard Pyromania (Full album). I'll leave it up to whoever follows to determine where we go next! ?

Yes, I landed a new IT job which I start next Monday (4/12). I'm not a fan or either the hours or what I've been told to expect (getting up at 4:30am and having to be onsite every day at a client filled with Type-A personalities where there are no problems, only emergencies), but I should be able to catch up on a lot of other areas which include getting a new computer. I should note that this does NOT include the new laptop I'll be getting for the actual job (just replacing my 11-year old main computer that's been having all sorts of bizarre motherboard/RAM/GPU/chipset/disk/USB type issues recently - lol). What I'm trying to figure out is if I should strive for the old style of separation where I get individual, physical computers for each task (personal work, games, DAW, etc.) or a beefier single computer that I can run VM's from (virtual machines). Note that the final answer might be a combination where one handles most things and the DAW is a completely different animal. So, to help me figure things out, I'm first seeing what's possible and that means seeing if anyone has successfully used a VM for their DAW! ?

Wah-wah, volume and a few to change between settings are all on another board. ?

What that fortune teller saw... What the other guy was thinking: "I need a bigger pedal board, I'm out of spaces!" ?
