Google is due out in July, boat season starts now.

I actually don't care so much about the processor, more about the storage. Thought about a 250gb Archos for that reason...actually have one in my office, but unopened. Think I'm going to return it.

Tab 2 is on the website, was hoping it'd drop the Tab 1 more. :) I "need" the infrared too. Really would help me save some BS time with wiring.

I've had a bitch of a time getting an IR repeater to work with my TV in the living room. Everywhere else no biggie.

Just deleted a large portion of my music collection. Down to 64k songs.

I'm sitting at 89k atm. Or at least that is what I can find so far.

On a side note I have a 1tb hard drive in the car with roughly 500 gigs on it. Loving the 80prs since it actually reads it all. and reads it pretty fast.

Yeah I can only imagine. I've had 1 hard drive fail before that had most of my music on it.

I really can't remember last time I listened to music that wasn't streamed online or over the radio/cd.

Mine is 100% ripped off CD. Part way through the process I lost it once. I now own 2 copies in the house, one in my briefcase and one at my parents house. I am NOT doing that again.

The Moscow Oceanarium, which opened its doors in autumn, seems not to be welcoming everyone. A group of children diagnosed with autism has been denied access.

"Refused. Visitors do not like to see the disabled, it disappoints them. It is not acceptable," read a note sent to teachers of a school that had tried to organize an excursion for autistic children. Further, the Moscow Oceanarium administrator suggested visiting the oceanarium on a cleanup day – so that “nobody sees them."

The school had contacted the Oceanarium to help organize a tour for several groups of children. But when the Oceanarium's staff learned the children were autistic, “the lady answering the call was clearly pushed back," and "made quite an awkward attempt to clarify what autism meant,” wrote a mother of one of the kids on her Facebook page.

Though the teacher explained that autism is a lifelong disability that affects how a person communicates and relates to others, and that physically such children are normal, the teacher was still advised that the group should visit on a day when the Oceanarium is closed to the public.

"If there had been a group of people using wheelchairs, then we could have explained the Oceanarium's reluctance to let them in on a weekend … but a visit on a cleanup day is beyond understanding," noted a Russian blogger.

The Oceanarium's press service has said it was unaware of the incident, according to Svetlana Shtarkova, the co-chair of the Council of the All-Russian Society for Children with Disabilities. It said that people with disabilities visiting the Oceanarium are normally offered visits on days with less traffic "for their own convenience, and if this incident really has taken place, the staff member will be punished."

They also added that the aquarium is testing a special program for people with disabilities, currently running on cleanup days. The press service explained that these days were selected in order to limit disabled people "from long lines and crowds." The Oceanarium’s website also offers discounts for people with disabilities if they apply on weekdays.

Human rights activists are investigating the incident. "If this is true, then it is a direct violation of the rights of disabled people," said Lev Ponomarev, the leader of the For Human Rights movement, in an interview with Interfax.

Meanwhile, the story caused outrage on social networks, gathering hundreds of reposts on Facebook in particular.

I am the exact opposite way. Too much shit on the radio nowadays.

They repeat the same 4-5 songs a few times a day for a few weeks. It feels like groundhog day :lol:

I have just played with Zapco's DSP software, it's kickass !

If I would get the DC 350.2 for the full-ranges, I would have 10 band L/R parametric eq, and independent L/R gain. Should be just what I'm missing. And the eq points are spaced 100 Hz apart up to 1k and 1 kHz apart onwards.

Minidsp is only $100 so don't bend over too hard trying to find one. Personally I'd rather have the processing separate, sort of like I'd prefer a car that only had a computer for the engine other than the ones I install :)

And there is pretty much no reason ever for a 10 band parametric.

No need to go to college. Just get pregnant and have a bunch of babies and the governments will give you a free house, food, and spending money. No need to earn anything when it is given to you.

Valid point...

I would really like to try the cut and boost method to improve focus, that's why L/R EQ would be useful. My Alpine only has 5-band parametric. And I would also like independent L/R gain, since I currently use balance to center my stage and it's far from ideal.

I might play with a miniDSP soon and if it's better than the Zapco onboard DSP, I'll go with that. The processing I currently have is plenty for midbass and sub but L/R EQ and gain would be awesome for the full-ranges.
