  • If it is purley about being efficient and a good manager - Dell would have been just a manager level guy. Surely, everyone knows that being efficient makes for good business - what does Dell got that apparently 99.9% of people out there do not hav…
    in Apple innovates, PC's wait, then copy Comment by klinux August 2002
  • Hmm, so now Dell IS a visionary after all but he is just not as cool as the other kind of visionary? KF12: It is your own perogative to decide whom you want to be when you grow out. I am down with that. Nevertheless, while Jobs did build g…

  • Yeah, that idiot Dell who made a company from nothing to the #1 retail PC manufacturer that is renowned for its efficiency and became the youngest Fortune 500 CEO is definitely NOT visionary. "You could come out looking like a million bucks o…

  • Geez, people, not again? I don't see why people are not happy unless thread like this shows itself every week. I mean, the new Macs started to use DDR or nVidia - you don't see a PC users go all mad saying oh-no Apple is copying us! Also, Gatew…

  • Everybody knows (or should know) that shotgun EULAs are not enforceable in court e.g. the little stub that you get in parking structure that says they are not liable for anything that happens so it doesn't really matter what MS says. This has not b…

    in VAIO vs eMac Comment by klinux August 2002
  • Better hardware? I think not. I am using the iBook 700mhz and it is definitely slower than similarly clocked PIII and Duron. I do not own a G4 but in the few times that I have used it, it is definitely not as fast as a P4. (BTW, I am using P4 bu…

  • If Shanksta is considering a Powerbook, he/she most likely can afford a combination of PC desktop ($750 tops with monitor - Dell (just an example) 2 ghz + a 19" CRT) and an iBook for $1200. This may be obvious but buy it after you get to the campus…
    in Inspiron or Ti Book for college? Comment by klinux August 2002
  • I am still a mostly PC guy despite buying my first Mac last month. My opinion is to have the best of both worlds/hardware/software - get a PC desktop and a Mac laptop.

  • Bought a Mac a month ago (iBook), the house is still 75% PCs though.

  • ZO - Not really. Your ears are the final judge. So if 128 kbps MP3 sounds good to you from your PC speakres - no need for you to up the encoding rating or change the codec or buy the most $$$ equipment out there just because others says they are b…
    in quality of MP3's Comment by klinux August 2002
  • First, there is plenty of study out there that shows 256 kbps on fine audio equipment is undistinguishable from the original CD. On the otherhand, I have seen no empirical study that shows 320 kbps sounds any better than 256 kbps. If you have some…
    in quality of MP3's Comment by klinux August 2002
  • Most audiophiles or enthusiasts believe MP3 recorded at 256kpbs or above are virtually undistinguishable from CD originals. An example of this from the study done last year by the folks at Stereo Review comparing codecs (MP3 vs WMA vs REAL). Now…

    in Best Headphones? Comment by klinux August 2002
  • Just remember the best equipment will still sound like crap through bad speakers. I laugh when people debate the merit of ripping things @ 320 vs 400kbps and judging it through their laptop speakers.
    in Calling all audiophiles! Need help in deciding ... Comment by klinux August 2002
  • Getting back to the original question... For the lack of a better catch-all term, "audiophiles" may disagree on many things but all agree that for any system, you should spend the most on speakers. Ultimately, the speakers are the things that yo…

  • Mac definitely depreciates less than PCs. The evolution of PC hardware occurs at a much faster pace. [ 08-05-2002: Message edited by: klinux ]
