Re: PC x Mac
Daniel I concur. So much is made about the beauty of a Mac and while I concede that they are not ugly I cannot really see its great beauty. Its either a boring brushed metal or worse white/black plastic box with in my view a logo that never makes it feel like a serious machine, whats to be so enamored about? I personally cannot compare it to the look of a Dell precision, Alienware or any of the decent gamiing machines out there which would be about the same specification. As for the OS well Ubuntu kicks them all in the head. I really cannot understand it and I have a 1st and terminal degree in the Fine Arts. a On Tue, Dec 2, 2008 at 2:37 PM, Simon Lowen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA512 Daniel, I agree with you and you echo my sentiments.

The problem with purchasing Apple for me (beyond the emotional reaction to the company and it's relationship with Free and Libre Software), is that it is difficult to really zero in on the components used. For example, simply stating that it is a 2.4 GHz Core2 Duo is not all that useful. That statement says nothing about the FSB, cache, power consumption, or core revision. If you look at the Intel product matrix you will find a couple of processors that run at 2.4 Ghz. There are differences and I am someone who cares about those differences. Apple simply does not offer me what I need. I understand that the majority of consumers do not care, but I do differentiate between a T series and a P series. I also care about the FSB (at least until i7 based laptops hit the market). You also get no choice with respect to the various other components used (video, sound, wifi, bluetooth etc.).

Re: PC x Mac
Um, I'll dissent on this point. Apple has taken from BSD'ed and GPL'ed projects and has contributed fixes and mods to them on a regular basis; Linux projects benefit from them. I call that giving back, but only because of their own benefit from mutual tit-for-tat contributions. The fact that they don't fully open-source or Linux/X11-port their own in-house projects says more about the secretive, relatively isolationary and highly-aloof (and, dare I say, technologically-bigoted) nature of the company than about any particular antagonism towards open source projects. Apple only ports apps to Windows so far as what will allow them to indirectly glean investment into their own hardware platform(s): QuickTime/Bonjour for the benefit of Mac users' video entertainment (why else do you think QuickTime on Windows is seen in a similarly-negative light to Adobe Acrobat Reader, while QuickTime on Mac is much more easy to use?), Safari for iPhone (mobile website design), iTunes for iPod (iTunes store). Nothing else for Windows, and all of these apps being piss-poor on Windows compared to their Mac versions. I see Apple as being alot like Prince: secretive, rabidly antagonistic over any perceived loss of control, focused on exclusively-personal long-term goals that discount other people and their needs. They'd have to be extremely hard-pressed to open anything of their own proprietary branding or making to open-source developers (even on OS X), and I think that they're still under the impression that Linux/X11 desktops are not a significant force on the desktop computer, even compared to their own minority marketshare.

I just picked up a Casio Digital Piano for my 6 year old who is learning to play Piano and it happens to have MIDI in/outs. Thank you sincerely.. this looks like an awesome concept.. It takes the basic elements of the popular games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band and implements them in truly USEFUL piece of software that can be used to educate people how to play a real instrument rather than a 5 button controller. Thanks for your comments, I would be interested to hear how you get on especaily with the Casio Digital Piano (is it GM compatible?) Out of curiosity, is there a way to output accuracy information to track scores over a period of time for various pieces? I.E. to see the improvement in a student's accuracy over time? This is on my todo list. Also, is there a mode for the software that will allow the player to continue on even during a wrong note? In a live performance, if you make a mistake, the performance must continue, and there is something to be said for learning to play w/ a steady tempo (I contstantly practice w/ a Metronome so that I can be accurate to the click track when I record). The play along mode allows playing with out stopping. I also considering a performance mode which would follow the pianist in a live situation. I cannot wait to get home and check this out tonight.. I'm so excited!!!

ffado 2.0RC packages?
Hi, I had an intense flirt with ubuntustudio a while back, until I realized my laptop was way too slow to keep up with all the tracks I recorded. I've just now ordered a new laptop, and plan to continue recording as soon as it arrives. I remember I had to install packages from this ppa: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-dev/+archive, to get everything working before (on Hardy, which I will be using again due to the rt-problems). So, I was wondering if there are any plans to update the packages in that ppa? The ffado project recently released a RC of the ffado libs, if I'm not mistaken... Thanks!
