    Well, short of reading your mind, how about you tell us what things you are having trouble with.

    I really don’t have trouble with Macintosh computers. Well apart from the fact Apple are more interested in building consumer toys than proper workstations but that’s another topic.

    I was just trying to find out what the chaps level of self styled stupidity was.

    But you don’t really say what the lvel of stupidity is or if you’ve used Macintosh at work and it was all set up for you etc?

    is it…

    If you’ve got an Macbook are you still looking for a DVD drive.

    Did you know you can click in the top left Magnifying glass and type mouse… It will bring up system preferences for mouse, all your documents that have mouse in it, a dictionary definition for mouse and you can search the web for it.

    I used to be able to partition my HD but can’t find it in apples most retarded stupid OS yet…Lion

    Current XC poppet is Trek Elite, with Pace RC41’s SPXC/Crests, USE plastic finishing kit, rotor cranks and 1x9XTR.

    That’s being put to bed now after a couple of years and I’m going to try the Planet X Dirty harry…(Just waiting for the tax man to confirm I’ve done my sums right before I spaff a couple of grand on it!)

    My best 24hr Solo last year was 13th at Bontrager…Hoping to match it or better it this year.

    I was aware of your point that yes on a basic level a CD player may contain some components that also exist in a Computer playing a CD.

    The difference being a CD player is designed to do one job and one job alone which is convert Digital to Analogue it does this with the minimum of fuss to let the Amplifier do it’s job and in turn let the speakers do theirs.

    A computer on the other hand was designed not to do this, is essentially a rather large calculator and therefore has to be doing a million other things at the same time as making the digital turn into analogue…let alone the fact that it will be passing through an amplifier stage designed for output to headphones. 🙂

    Like not having a clue about what downhill really is, most kids coming into it now think it manicured smooth trails with jumps that I could ride my bmx on!!!

    That really annoys me too. Real Downhill is riding with a 54t setup and Tioga Disc Drive down Mammoth Mounatin.

    Exactly what Doof Doof said…We’ve a 15month old running round, I built a decent cabinet to store the Hi Fi and the Grilles just live on the Floorstanders now. There is a point though, for instance these days I wouldn’t dream of spending hundreds of pounds on Interconnects.

    She enjoys sitting in between them in what is now called Vinyl Saturdays where she dances away to Black Sabbath, Megadeth and the like whilst playing with chewing her way through (the less valuable) record sleeves.

    I just can’t understand why people would listen to music through a computer…I can just about bear listening to the radio (but even then I’ve got it hooked up to teac mini amp and monitor speakers bolted above the drawing boards)
