Music workstations are so 90'ies...
You can do the same things (although much easier) on a decent laptop with some extra equipment (like an M-Audio Ozonic...). Why tie yourself (and your money) to something expensive with a crippled userinterface?
My ultralight will get you to 1 km, stay there for hours and then gently fly back to the ground, carrying a payload of 200 kg... And it's fully reusable!
And you can have it for 10k only.
This simply shows one thing, they are a bunch of crybabies.
They've made more money than they could ever spend in a lifetime, and this new record means nothing to them economically. So if they weren't spoiled little brats, they'd just go along with their recording and release the album as planned....unless they know it's a pile of crap. Then they got the perfect excuse: "Yes, we do know these songs are rubbish but that's because we where forced to release them in an unfinished state. It's your own fault, you potential pirate you"...
Why are americans obsessed with the risk of their children being kidnapped?...and I'm pretty sure that if your mind is set on kidnapping and abusing a child, you won't really consider the risk of being traced...
If this was something more than a clay mockup and some clever writing, it might actually be news. As it is now, it's just plain stupidity let loose by a bored marketing dept.
The one single reason that made me buy an xbox was that I could chip it and run xboxmediaplayer on it. Without that, and dvd, I wouldn't be playing xbox games today. It's kind of sad that microsoft aren't exploiting these possibilities, as it would give the xbox some really unique features over it's opponents.
And yes, I did actually buy a few games for it...
My band has been using autotuners for atleast three years. What they ultimately do is to speed up the recording process, since we can accept minor flaws that the autotuner can correct. Wouldn't record without them.
Still, flying a "piddly single engine" irl beats anything you can do with flight simulator (atleast indoors).
It's like comparing pr0n with the real thing (a really really bad comparsion considering this is slashdot...).
Why don't all these guys who spend b i g bucks on a flightsim mock-up just get a pilots licence? It's way more fun, 100% real and much cheaper. Heck, some of these guys could actually buy a real plane for less than they spend on the computers alone.
Add lots of $$$, make the plane twice as big, add a few extra and more reliable engines, get some redundancy into the electronics and the success rate will be 4 out of 5.
From my experience, the xbox is a babemagnet. I know of several cases where the female part of the household insisted on the xbox, for the sole purpose of playing dead or alive 3...
If MS think some karaoke-wierdo stuff is what women want, they are making a huge mistake...
So if i am to attend a business trade show, i need a different visa than if i was to attend a consumer trade show?
Sounds a bit Catbertish... oops, sorry, patriotic is the word, right?
Wire your house or get a decent wireless system. The cost will be about the same in the end, and there's enough bandwidth to support a family in both.
Put an ITX-based computer in every room. Or at least in every room where you want any kind of media.
You're all set.//J
In my opinion, what VOD (and similar music-related services) needs is a decent pricing model. I would happily buy-and-download my music, but price advantage over buying the plastic-based version must be substantial. Less than half would do it for me.

They just had to call it "Secure 1000"?

He just say that they are prototypes that _he believes_ to be accurate. Did he paint them himself?

Actually, unlike real planes, simulators don't fly at all... ;-)
