Re: [CGUYS] Audio Conversion?

2007-12-31 Thread Rev. Stewart Marshall

I am not an audiophile, but I always enjoyed wonderful music.

However I have lost parts of my hearing over time as I served with 
line units in the army reserve.


That still does not keep me from recognizing a bad recording from a good one.

I can listen to some MP3's and tell you they are inferior by how they 
sound.  It is not just audio range it is brilliance and clarity in 
the sound you hear.   It is like going to a symphony and listening to 
a piece of music.  When you have heard it once done properly with a 
full orchestra, to hear it any other way is a disappointment.


We have gotten used to inferior sounding music.  FM radio was good, 
but not great.  Car stereos were abysmal for so many years we got used to it.


Once you are used to inferior sound and have never heard the way it 
is supposed to sound you don't know the difference.

Re: [CGUYS] Audio Conversion?

2007-12-31 Thread Eric S. Sande
If you are going to take that position then you would not be digitizing 
from anything less than the original master recording. So as I said 
before: is this being done for a personal music collection or for the 
Smithsonian?


I thought I was discussing playback of material all ready in the
digital domain and the limitations of the common digital media,
also ways to minimize some of thir limitations.  When I record,
which I haven't in years, it's live performances.  My tape IS
the original "master."

If I'm converting an analog medium to digital, e. g. cassette or LP,
I have a TASCAM deck that burns a Red Book compliant CD
of either medium.  Sometimes it even gets the tracks right :-).  I 
then rip the resultant CD to hard drive in .WAV format.  Sometimes

I'll just repalce to original analog recording with a CD, but I have a
large record collection and that can get expensive fast.

Most of us have ears that are somewhat damaged and they will only be 
getting worse as time goes by. So for a personal music collection it 
would be silly to use any technology that is better than what one can 
hear.

I agree, that's why we now have everybody running Linux on their desktops.

>By the time Netscape responded, IE had the market.  

No, what I see is the result of a corrupt administration failing to 
enforce the laws against a convicted monopolist. Netscape was an 
innovative young company that launched a revolutionary new product and 
was making a good business selling it at a low price (I think $25.). They 
were crushed by very unfair tactics. When a company develops an 
innovative product and is prevented from selling it there is really no 
way for it to successfully respond. With its income choked off it can't 
continue. That is why such tactics are illegal. 

>I know stupidity when I saw it, and AOL hasn't really been good at
>predicting the market since dialup faded.

I think AOL acquired Netscape mainly for its lawsuit potential. They got 
$750,000,000 from MS for their trouble, so I would say that they were 
right.

AOL is now part of Time-Warner and is managed like that. I had hoped that 
AOL would invigorate TW, which was rich in media properties, but poor on 
brains and innovation. It turned out that TW management was very good at 
one thing: internecine warfare. Lazy TW management saved their asses by 
destroying AOL.

Re: [CGUYS] Quickbooks and MD taxes

2007-12-31 Thread Fred Holmes
Not having the full table, I can't answer the question definitively, but from 
what you have there, it looks like Maryland is rounding up any fraction of a 
penny whatsoever.  (Quickbooks probably rounds to the nearest penny.)

I don't know what formula syntax Quickbooks may use, but in Excel (2000) it 
would be the use of the formula ROUNDUP() instead of ROUND().  

TAX=ROUNDUP(SALE*0.06,2)

Do you even have access to the sales tax formula in Quickbooks, or is it "hard 
wired" into the code?

Actually the pay for Netscape model killed Netscape.  Free that works
will always garner more users.  By the time Netscape responded, IE had
the market.  Of course AOL for quite some time relied on the gecko
engine as the basis for Netscape, meaning that it was just a slightly
different flavor than the rest of the Mozilla offerings.  For a long
time, no new versions came out.  Of course we're also talking about the
same folks who refused to create an AOL client based on the gecko
engine, then giving up Internet Exploder as the browsing engine for AOL
too.  I know stupidity when I saw it, and AOL hasn't really been good at
predicting the market since dialup faded.

[CGUYS] Quickbooks and MD taxes

2007-12-31 Thread Reid Katan
Many of you living in Maryland know that the sales tax rate is going  
up from 5% to 6%. Those of you that don't: SURPRISE!


I've been tasked with changing the rate in Quickbooks. While I can  
change the rate--it's easy enough--Maryland's tax table doesn't  
exactly jibe with a real 6% rate.


MD says, for instance, that the tax on $1.01-$1.16 is $.07.  
Quickbooks, however, says that $.07 tax is between $1.09-$1.24.


Is there any way to make Quickbooks conform to Maryland's math?

Thanks
