Well... lets get back on topic here... and I promised a few pages back to post my desktop...

Got my iBook yesterday, here are some pics... as you can see, they're in the living room, because honestly, why should I sit at a desk when I have AirPort networking and a good 3 hour charge on my battery? :p

*Snickers cuz my iBook has the secksy Verdana "iBook" writing and yours has ugly Times New Roman*

:D

:laugh:

Yeah yeah, it's used though :p

Oh well, I'm happy with it :happy:

There's a PC "Post your workstation" thread around here somewhere. I noticed that, in my opinion, on average, Mac user's desktops look much cooler. :) Even my minimalist workstation looks better than most of the ones in the PC thread but it looks decidedly dowdy compared to this lot.

I'll let you decide....

I don't have a Mac to post yet, but I have a question.

I'm looking at getting a Mac soon. A tower though, not a notebook. Now, my question is this:

Can I hook up my 21" Sun Microsystem monitor to it? It has a standard VGA connection, and I use it on my PC as of now.

If I get a Mac, I don't want to have to get a new monitor also. I don't have the desk space for it. Sure, I'll be getting rid of my PC, but I don't want to get rid of my monitor.

Depends on the Graphics card really ... My GeForce3 has a ADC and VGA Connector, so in this instance yea, i'd think most graphics card have DVi + VGA / ADC + VGA combo's, so you should be ok?! :D

Good stuff!

Another questions. As a person just starting out on a Mac, except for used at school, what do you suggest?

You say you wanted a tower, right? ... Well, if you meant, desktop ... probably an iMac ... they seem such sweet computers, and i'd imagine there'd be a PERFECT 1st time computer ... however i dunno if they can work with you 21" machine .. so it might that you gotta go for the G5, huh? I wouldn't go for the 1.6!

    • I think that the last game I bought on day-one was something like Ghost of Tsushima. I've come to realise that I don't have enough time (or sometimes inclination) to game as much as I used to, and I've got plenty of games to keep me occupied if I do decide to play. So I don't see the need to buy a game when it first releases - I wait until it goes on sale. If I'm really excited about a game and the price is under £50 then I would consider it, but anything over that price point gets ignored until the price comes down.
    • For the foreseeable that is your choice. I'm interested tom try one, my wife was very pleased because one she is anti-social and driver chat annoys her and two more seriously there is a long history of drivers abusing women, it's rare, but it happens and more than it should. Sometimes she needs to get a late taxi and she says it may make her feel safer.
    • 5800x3d was chopped because it was too good, why bother releasing a new mid range.
    • Was it bad, sure, but I got it on PC so it was nowhere near as bad as the PS4/XBO versions. Besides, I spent around 200hrs in there and have yet to play the expansion for it. All in all I think I got my monies worth. Maybe I was lucky and didn't run into anything game breaking like others. Either way, $60 is my limit for a game, the point is I'm not going over that no matter what the title is or how much I want to play it. Thank god I don't suffer from FOMO.

It enables detailed spectral and phase analysis and supports unlimited undo/redo. Users can drag and drop files, edit metadata, save labeled regions, and view multiple synchronized waveforms. Internally, spwave processes audio in 64-bit precision, ensuring high accuracy. It runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux, making it a reliable and flexible tool for audio research and editing. spwave has following features: Support for multiple platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux (Motif, gtk), etc. Support for WAV, AIFF, MP3, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, ALAC, raw, and text files by using plug-ins.

Playing, zooming, cropping, deleting, extracting, etc. of a selected region. Fade-in, fade-out, gain adjustment, channel swapping, etc of a selected region. Editing file information that supports comments of WAV and AIFF, and ID3 tag of MP3. Analysis of a selected region using several analysis types, e.g. spectrum, smoothed spectrum, phase, unwrapped phase and group delay. Undoing and redoing without limitation of the number of times. Waveform extraction by drag & drop. Opening files by drag & drop. Autosaving of selected regions (you can do this by drag & drop also). Saving positions and regions as labels.

Implemented piano-key display for spectrum/spectrogram view. Implemented indication of musical note name in cursor information for spectrum/spectrogram view. Fixed a bug that spectrogram view after zoom-in with large factor sometimes freezes. Fixed a bug that scroll and zoom-out in spectrogram view after zoom-in with large factor do not work correctly. Fixed a bug that spectrogram view provides sometimes wrong time information. Fixed a bug that plugin errors sometimes cause a crash. Fixed a bug that the color of grid lines is wrong in printing. Optimized layout of spectrogram view for printing. Enhanced the function of waveform cropping from label information. Fixed a bug that some items in the preference dialog related to labels do not work. Added some items related to the region label in the preference dialog. Fixed a bug that drawing selected region in the log-frequency axis does not work correctly. Added partial support for the dark mode of Windows (the menu bar and the menus). Fixed a bug that the cursor to indicate current calculation position of spectrogram is sometimes not shown. Changed drawing of cursor information into that with white background so as to make the information legible. Fixed a bug that moving to the head by scrolling the overview display sometimes fails. Added feature of alignment of the view region between spectrum view and spectrogram view.
