MD: MD in the media: MacIntyre Undercover

MD: MD adoption vs MP3 etc
Memo from John H Rolt of PricewaterhouseCoopers Start of message text Hi all Just occurs to me that one possible factor for USA having adopted MP3 rather than MD, but the other way round here in the UK, is our slowness in getting broadband internet available. This means that we don't have the same convenient access to Napster et al (unless for instance we download MP3s at work through a high-speed connection). So we put up with real-time transfer from CDs etc. to our beloved MD, and reap the quality benefits while we're at it. Never thought I'd say it, but thanks British Telecom!

MD: SP/DIF from Dell Inspiron 8000? (And old Acorns)
I'm finally thinking about replacing my 7 year old Acorn RISC PC* with a shiny new laptop, and am looking at the Dell Inpsiron 8000. Anyway, I've heard that it's possible to get an SP/DIF output from it - possibly by sticking some sort of adaptor on the SVideo port (or something). Is this true, and can I adapt it to a regular optical out connection which I can plug into my Sharp 831? *For the benefit of non-Brits, Acorn is a (now defunct) computer manafacturer, who started producing RISC based computers in 1987, running a superfast, super-reliable, super-easy-to-use (mostly hand-coded in pure assembler) operating system called RISC OS. (its so efficient, in everyday operation, my 40mhz, 10mb Acorn still does most things faster than the 700mhz PCs at uni, and its so stable one user reported 7 YEARS without a crash). However, I need to replace it due to compatibility issues. For those familiar with chip designers ARM ltd, it was Acorn who designed the original ARM chips, and ended up spinning off the company as a separate entity. Fortunately, ARM had somewhat more business savvy than Acorn. Robin.

Re: MD: MD acceptance...
I've seen the hype about the MDS-LSA1. It may be a product ahead of its time... Also, it seems to be marketed in Europe only (I'm in the US).. The market they seem to be aiming at is the (future) home stereo market where most audio a video components are digital, with firewire interface. Although it could be used with a computer (most would need an add-on firewire adapter). It also looks like its physical shape would not lend itself to easy placement in most computer setups (maybe under the monitor???). If they wanted the killer product, I would think they should make a small portable recorder with a USB interface. (USB has a larger installed base than firewire, at this time). HHB does make such a recorder for professional use. I'm not sure about exactly how the USB interface works (is it *native* with flow control and bidirectional or is it just an add-on packaged in the same enclosure as the MD). - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yes - you get a device that plugs into a port on the side and gives you S-Video, Composite and S/PDIF audio. If you use a converter such as the Midiman CO2, you can convert it to optical that will be suitable for your 831. The plug-in thing with the S/PDIF is standard on all Inspiron 8000s as far as I know. hth, -- Simon ___ FSmail - Get your free web-based email from Freeserve: www.fsmail.net - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

MD: problem with the sony md r900
Hi all I have a problem with my new Sony MD R900. When recording with a mike, I can hear what it's recording through the headphones and I can see that the counter is ticking off when I've begun recording. But I can't hear a thing when I try to play back what I've recorded. I found another reference to this problem on the web, but no solutions. Can anyone help?

Then maybe you should have not posted this? ;) Sorry, but I work with both systems, and I get tired of PC-centric people doing flawed comparisons. The entire evaluation you conducted was flawed, since you evaluated PowerBooks using PC users. Then you missed the whole point of the evaluation.. I wanted to have a hybrid network at my office. I wanted to give Macs to people at the web design department; these people have used PCs all their lives. I really, truly wanted to give Macs a chance; I figured, if Macs are as good as people say they are, everyone will want to switch. Not to mention, Macs were cheaper than the PCs. They were until we factored in the cost of the software necessary to coexist with the PCs at work. Of course they are going to dislike the interface and have the problems you menioned, just as a company full of Mac users is going to dislike the Windows interface and have technical problems with Windows if you use them to evaluate Wintel laptops. Maybe they'd like Windows better =) No, really! I attended a System X seminar with a bunch of Windoze geeks, and the presentation guy almost walked away, because he always said now, System X can do THIS! and we always countered Just like Windows!. Seriously, the techie guy at Apple that was assigned to us accepted that Macs had fallen way behind in their GUI, and that just lately they begun catching up with Windows. Don't blame me, they were the ones who accepted it. The simple truth is that people are comfortable with what they learned, and a change will almost always be met with resistance, especially in the beginning. True. That's one of the reasons we didn't buy the Macs after all; people wanted to work, not to learn a new system. The other major reason was that we have been let down way too many times by Apple in the past. We still have 28 Macs lying around that Apple couldn't and wouldn't fix (Apple Mexico, that is). Just the facts. BTW, the death blow being end users complaining because they couldn't open exe files received through email? ROFL... about the only executable files people receive through email are virii and joke programs. Hmmm... Ahem... ever heard of C++ files? We use those all the times as macros. True, people could always learn whatever scripting language Apple offers, or re-compile their apps in System X. Not worth it. Sorry, but that is just incorrect. If you mean incompatible with a few PC-only applications, yes. With a few PC apps? Sorry, but I could only find Macromedia and some Office stuff. Our database won't run on Apple (Progress). Our ASP won't run on a Mac (Citrix). Nor the clients for those apps. Sun and Windows NT will. This is enterprise stuff, not the apps you would run on your home-home office. You want to use PCs, or Macs, that's great. But let's drop these flawed well, I did an evaluation arguments -- Because if we continue with them, people will notice the computer is not the goal... it's the tool to get there. Had I started a network from scratch, probably Apple would have prevailed (I'd still need some Sun servers, but then again, who doesn't? =) Sadly, someone mentioned wanting to replace a PC laptop with a PowerBook... i just explained how I tried to do the same, and the reasons why I failed.

Some may say he was picky, but I would be too if I was dropping $1000 on a monitor and I got it home and it was blury, or it was impossible to get a square image. A Trinitron in working order is one of the best monitors around, but they also have a hidious falure rate.
