I may just let Chris Ludwig do it for me and build me a super box with a monster quad and 8G RAM running Vista 64 and Cubase 4/64. This would be much easier, eventually cheaper and would make perfect sense to do. The problem I have with *anyone* else building my boxes is that I have this compusion to *fix* things that aren't broken and in order to know (and be absolutely convinced that I know for sure) the definition of *broken* I usually need to break it in numerous ways..........and actually go to great lengths to find ways to break it that push the limits of foolishness and wretched excess. I call it creative destruction....or maybe it's destructive creation, I'm not sure. I have lived with this condition my entire life. That's why I don't drink or do drugs anymore....I mean, who needs that stuff when you've got an inherently nonsensical intellectual curiousity anyway? ;o) "TCB" <nobody@ishere.com> wrote in message news:4720f9bd$1@linux... > > Here's a link to a kernel trap story.

Nice going, Dude! > Patience was never one of my strong points........if you hadn't noticed ;o)That's cool stuff and funny. One line reminded me of the old joke about the cowboys in Indian country circling their wagons for the night. When out of the shadows comes the drums... BOOMboomboomboom BOOMboomboomboom BOOMboomboomboom Tex says to Slim: Slim, I don't like the sound O' them drums... Then, from out of the darkness comes a voice.... Yeah WE don't him either, he's not our regular drummer... heh Hey, I finished two of the old tunes! The one with the embarrssing lyrics got overhauled and even got a new title. It's way way better. but will I cringe at it too in 20 years? prolly. The other one never did have lyrics or melody. Now it has both. Kind of a Live at Leeds crossed with SRV vibe. Very powerful and sexy. (yes it is about monogamous, married, yea even middle-aged SEX! so eat yer hearts out young folks!) I can't share much yet, because no one gets to hear my singing and I need to get these copyrighted first, but I will put them up as soon as I can get my singer friend out here ad put it together. Pull out yer old stuff! There's diamonds in there. Somewhere....
