Back when I drove near junker cars as an impoverished student, we would talk about how to best fix up the car. Sometimes, the best approach was to jack up the radiator cap, and replace everything under it. A more serious version of "upgrading the hardware" While the 'high end' audio folks have a longer time frame, anything computer related that is four or five years old is economically obsolete. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
