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!" ?

Sounds like another Rush to judgement there Steve! ?

Last night I went into a room and completely remembered why I went in! ? Of course, it was the restroom, so that might not count as a win... ?

What's wrong with rockin' the boat? (To be fair, these guys were probably told they were too fugly to play on land, but the point remains! ? )

Betty called Joe a shrimp! Now that's just shellfish!

Whoa! Bob snuck one in just as I was pressing the Submit button! ? Lucky for me, my entry still works though! ?

Smooth move! ?

Hare today, gone tomorrow? ?

Bill's getting a feedback tube installed next... ?

Keith actually died a long time ago. Thing is, nobody thought to tell him! ?
