i should also mention that my reasoning comes from audio engineering terminology. when you have a live show of anything using sound (can be a concert, theme park show, a play on a stage,what ever.) you have a play list of what audio to play at what time. a musical group usually just has a set list of what songs they are playing but in the case of a theater show that requires sound effects or music you would have all your sound files queued in a patch bay or playback device of some kind so when the actor starts singing or what have you, you can hit,lets say,patch A4 for what ever song. i say queue because every song you play in a live venue has to be loaded and ready to hit its mark. if you don't do it ahead of time you might have a bad bit of audio or a glitch that gos blaring over the load speakers. that being said, i don't really know what context the author was using,just the one that makes sense to me.
in this case it would be queue 3 A: a sequence of messages or jobs held in temporary storage awaiting transmission or processing. the reason i say this is correct is because he says "queue the Jaws theme",in this cast you would use the version that is used in the recording/move industry to queue up a sound bite for editing before mixing down to a master recording. in other words, the stage in which you add all the music and any over dub before mastering.
Cue. It's cue. As in "This is my cue to pipe in the theme for Jaws". Granted, queue can make sense in a CS-type queuing up the theme, but....
Ah, fuck it. Go mangle the English language. I'll be curled up in bed, sucking on my language-nazi thumb.
actually queue is correct.
queue is
1:a braid of hair usually word hanging at the back of the head.
2:a waiting line especially of persons or vehicles.
3 A:a sequence of messages or jobs held in temporary storage awaiting transmission or processing. B: a data structure that consists of a list of records such that records are added at one end removed from the other.
cue is
1:half a farthing.
2:the spelled form of the letter q.
I would like to know how they run Comcast in California. I work for Comcast in Florida and they have had the option of cable cards for some time. I wounder if this is more of an issue of ignorance on the part of the customer or the sales rep she talked to that didn't properly explain their options.
