    FS: G5 RAM, Ihara densitometer

    I've got 2GB of RAM (four 512MB chips) for a PowerMac G5 that I'd like to sell. They're still in the plastic packaging and have never been used. I'm asking $175. Sound about right? I've also got an Ihara R710 densitometer. It's pretty old, and I don't really know how to test it (hell, I...

    G5 graphics card madness! :'(

    So I'm going to be buying a 2.5 G5 come January, and I'm pickin' out the pieces now. The only thing that gets me is the different graphics cards. What are the differences? I've decided to get one with 256 MB of RAM. The Apple site says that the NVIDIA GeForce 6800 DDL cards are the...

    FA: PB 1400 upgrade, RAM, various parts

    I'm selling the parts from my broken 1400. I can make no guarantees, and give no refunds, but I'm quite certain that the PowerBook's problem was with the power/motherboard, rather than the processor or RAM. There are also some other random bits you might be interested in if you've got a 1400...

    Forbes slams iPod earphones

    I'm satisfied with the iPod's headphones enough to not be able to justify spending more than $20 on a new pair, so I guess that's somethin'.

    It's turtles all the way down.

    GarageBand really needs a jamming feature.

    I plugged my bass into GarageBand last night, set up some funkay funkay drums and horns and banjo (for ROCK POWER) flipped the loop on, and just went to town on it for a few hours. Every once in a while, I'd have to stop playin', delete some tracks, replace them with new tracks, and then get...

    Finally found the world's biggest idiot! (PC'ing his G5...)

    Holy god, relaaax y'all. The boy don't like your OS of choice; boo hoo. I was all gonna rush to this cat's defense and give him mad props as someone who took something and tweaked it out to make something they really like, but then I saw that he put damned green raver glowstick lights inside...

    Panic Software release Unison Usenet Reader...

    Man, people are still using usenet? I haven't been on it in at least five years. I'm quite anxious to see it again. :)

    FS: Old, old software, cheap.

    So I'm cleaning out my closet, lookin' for things that eBay might enjoy... NOTHING! Just a bunch of old software. :( For a shipping and handling fee of $10, I'll send this stuff anywhere in the continental United States. If you wanna send more than $10 to help fund my...

    Home made improvements to subwoofer...

    I'm not sure what kind you have, but if it points at the floor like mine, try simply flipping it onto its side so that the speaker points directly at you.

    GarageBand: Major/Minor Key

    karavite: Yeah, that does actually make some sense. I played piano when I was a youngum, so I have no idea why I thought A minor was F major. I'm absolutely hopeless, that's for sure. :) And although I fear the explanation, why 11 notes? Aren't there 12? Pleeease tell me there are still...

    GarageBand Creations

    Sogni: Aww, thanks! :) That's actually one of my less-than-favorite songs, just because it's so simple and kinda geeky. But I guess that's fitting.

    GarageBand Creations

    Last summer, my band went into a fancy studio and recorded some tunes. We tried to pack too many songs into too little time, and the mix suffered terribly. Were pretty unhappy with how it turned out. I thought I'd try to record our simplest song in GarageBand, just for kicks. I wasn't...

    GarageBand: Major/Minor Key

    Thank you. I'm sure your rusty theory is better than my nonexistent theory. :)
