The transformers revival is very much at hand, I do believe. Mostly 'cause those of us who were kids in the 80s are starting to get good jobs and money.

Them Some Super-Fly Moogerfoogers

These guys are mind-blowing. If you hear the music you'll assume it's a produced track that some DJ'll spin in a club. Not so my friends, these guys play live progressive house/break beat on REAL instruments and jam out like pros. Truly amazing stuff. Check out the highlights of their show in Boston, now that's energy.
I've had the self-titled record for a while but I had no idea they were live! I'm all and something about catching a show now.

Everybody wants an eMac
Apr. 30th, 2002 11:51 pmApple is up to some risky business once again. The new eMac is of course probably the most universally appealing machine they've built since the orignal iMac. Let's not beat around the bush, the new iMac is expensive and not hitting or aimed at even the status-quo of Mac users. The eMac is very appealing and cheap. As little as $999 to educational institutions.
That says a lot.
But maybe this strange strategy reveals Apple's pure intentions for the betterment of education? That's debateable. What they're trying to do is sell schools $1000 Apple computers when they could easily buy $500 Windows PC's instead. Of course Apple gets to reap all of the support cost, creates platform dependancy and "educates" kids to be Mac users. All the while really pissing off their public consumers by charging them a wholely virtual hardware premium.
Is this OK? Yeah, it's how Apple's stayed in business while still making superior products.
Now apple still does sell the old iMac, I'm sure once the hype of the new iMac cools off we'll see a new low-end Mac.
Yes, I am a raving closet Apple fan boy.
