You're probably thinking of the Stanton FinalScratch. It interfaces via firewire to Native Instruments Traktor DJ software. I think NI now offers their own USB solution too.
I have been playing since closed beta, almost 2 years ago. I would also consider myself a "hardcore" player... being a member of the guild Death and Taxes which is considered the top guild in the US and could be argued that we're the best in the world as well.
I don't mean to start an e-peen war here, I'm just setting the context for how some people can balance a hardcore raiding life with real life, and not be too drawn into the addiction.
To give you an idea of how much I've played my only character: Total time played: 210 days, 14 hours, 22 minutes, 28 seconds Time played this level: 188 days, 3 hours, 50 minutes, 33 seconds
Sure, I've blown off invites from friends to go to parties to instead sit at home raiding. In retrospect I would have regretted those mornings after anyway! I haven't yet lost any of those friends, as I can still find time to see them fairly often. Being a hardcore player does not mean you have to spend your entire waking day in front of your computer, I have a full time job that I must pay attention to instead.
There are many types of WoW players, each able to balance the game with their real lives in different ways. An outsider might look at a mixed group of players and not be able to tell if they're casual or hardcore based solely on the number of hours they play each day. A hardcore player who only logs on each night only to raid is also a part of a larger machine, the guild, which is organized in such a way to allow people to play less and not burn out. Or at least thats one of the intentions. A casual player will not find that kind of support simply because they do not see themselves as being able to, or wanting to, spend the time to set up such a system. They want to stay casual and will justify being so by going so far as complaining (a lot) on the public blizzard forums about every change in the game that allows people who are able to play 'more' to gain the advantage.
The above poster stated that the only difference between a casual and hardcore player was playtime and gear differential. I would say that play time doesn't factor into it as much as people might think. People are able to minimize their playtime and still call themselves hardcore. Although it may not be apparent to most other people.
Carrying around 1000 songs on vinyl inside your new "iPod Vinyl" (iPod LP?) would also be extremely heavy! I can tell you from experience that carrying 100 difficult enough:P Then again, lots of people could use the workout!
Nothing is stopping people from buying songs on iTunes, burning to CD, and then ripping to DRM free music.
You can do this over and over and the price of blank cds are less than the cost of an album these days.
shared libraries are dealt with in the GNUStep way. Similar to Linux, user installed libraries can be put in/usr/local/lib, and most base libraries are bundled in libSystem.dylib.
If an app requires a special shared lib to run, these are often implemented as Frameworks. The system frameworks reside in/System/Library/Frameworks, but app specific frameworks can be a part of the application bundle (an application is a directory whos concents include libraries, executables, resources etc). When that is the case, the removal of those shared libs as taken care of when you remove the application itself. Brainless.
Im sorry, I've been there.. The dish rotates around tracking the satellite which is NOT in a geosync orbit, like I said. Read up on inmarsat before saying I'm sniffing skua dung.
They use inmarsat, which provides a satellite that is not on a perfect geosync orbit. This gives them REALLY GOOD high speed coverage for a little bit less than 12 hours per day, an d crap the rest of the time. Most of the interference during the transitional time is from the mountains in the distance. The dish they use looks like it points to the horizon, and it just rotates around following the satellite, and you can even tell time by which way the dish is pointing =)
In fact I beleive Teal'c and Oneill did not lose this knowledge. At the end of the mentioned episode Daniel realized that the two could have done anything at all during the period of time that they were trapped in the time loop. When he mentions this to Oneil, Jack looks at Carter and smiles...
I think that is sufficient evidence that they knew what they did.
As for not using that knowledge about the ancient language... who knows, ask the writers =P

Check out MudWalker http://mudwalker.cubik.org. Its open-source, cocoa native, and even provides an API to write your own plugins. I have even written my own mudmaster/zmud compatible chat plugin with MudWalker. Also with its scriptability in Lua (and any other scripting language you wish to write an interpreter for), MudWalker is far ahead of Rapscallion.
This doesn't work at all on my machine...
After Help Viewer opens, I get a dialog saying: "The item cannot be opened. It may be disabled or not installed."
Yes Safari automounts DMG's and no I havent changed anything in Internet Config.
I have been working with Kmax for as long as I can remember... It is platform independant, Java based data acquisition software that allows you to build graphical toolsheets to interface with many different bus types. It can talk to GPIB, CAMAC, VME, and any other bus that you can write a JNI driver for. You can get a free version of Kmax at Sparrow Corporation, and I think the only thing that is disabled is the Save feature...
From my experience, Kmax has been the most versatile data acquisition software I have ever used. The way it is designed, if you want something more, just write your own KmaxDevice or KmaxDriver (interfaces are documented) and you're all set! It even has options for remote connections over TCP/IP for client-server connections, useful if you want to take a look at your data from home or if you feel like changing some parameters without walking down the hall and mucking with your racks of equipment.

Shrug, it is easier to double your market share when you have such a tiny amount.

It costs much less than a good mixer (I use a djm-600), and only slightly more than a brand new top of the line deck (1210M5G).
After dumping TONS of cash into my vinyl collection, using FinalScratch is a breather..
You can download the same tracks from BeatPort for a fraction of the price of a record =)

Phew, I thought for a moment that Sony was putting this rootkit on popular cds! I'm safe..... for now

What a horrible time to not have mod points! Mod parent down troll
SCSI? That means System Can't See It... right?
Microchip MCUs in fact do have PWM/CCP modules, as well at D/A converters built in.
