I just got this today for £5, it is very good... there's some really interesting tracks, and funny ones (Rewind by Cylob is excellent - Steven Hawking raps and sings). I suggest you get it, though you probably all already own it.

Its not Steven Hawking.. its a voice generated by a computer.. a Macintosh computer. I believe the voice is called "ralph". not sure though. I would know. I have the new Mac G4 [for anyone who doesnt know, its better than the Pentium 4].

The Pentiums are now peices of crap. amd has been building better processors for awhile now. And who cares if mac processors are better. Macs have no games and in the grand scheme of things thats more important. Video Editing and Music are better on mac but that is insignificant.

Oh, so we are in this debate, eh?
If it comes down between Intel and AMD, right now AMD offers more bang for it's buck. I mean, shit... they are cheap and hella good chips! BUT they make their own mediocre boards, so they have to rely on others to make good mobo's for them, like VIA.
With Intel, they make procs better than AMD right now (just in speed right now for the time being) but they have their own chipsets to match. I mean fuck, the AMD 1.3 is on a 266 bus, while the Intel 1.5 is on a 400mhz bus. AMD DOES have DDR for RAM now, but test results from tom's hardware make it sound hardly worth the while... yet. But with all of this, Intel's proprietary RAMBUS ram is expensive and required by p4. So there...
As for apple's... por little apple. They are great, but they don't have the complete software support. Yet they are great for multimedia. I'd rather use photoshop on a g4 than my AMD 1.2, or an intel machine. And face it guys, when windows XP comes around, we will all have to either move to MacOSX, goto a Linux solution, or sign your soul over to microsoft to use XP. (you'll have to re-register your copy of XP w/ms before installing it, AND whenever you have ANY hardware change... give me a fucking break). And i figure... if you're going to linux, might as well do it on a mac with osX. And c'mon... rdj uses apple... that should be enough of a reason for us all to go mac.
As for "The Braindance Coincidence" ... never heard of it...

haha, personally I have seen a lot of people who spend a lot of time talking about all the technicalities if computers, star networks, bus networks, nodes, bits and bytes, you name it, the more complex they can make themselves sound the more they start to sectretly fancy themselves for being intelligent during one, overall, FUCKING BORING CONVERSATION!!! (Nobody realises that during all that time they could have spent the time talking about sex instead, and enjoyed it far more).
Whilst on the subject of talking about sex may I add that it is also annoying me in the world of today, the amount of people that turn around and say "Guys only have a one track mind". Well mother nature inplanted this obsession in men and women for a reason so why not fucking enjoy it???
Sex, in many ways, is so neglected. For all the girls on the site, please may I also add that I have heard every womens rights speach recited to me in angry tones and I AM respectable to girls. I don't harass people, I try to enjoy life before I die, is that so bad? is it?
OK, I've got it out of my system. You can talk about ugly circuit boards now, don't mind me I can be far too self opinionated at times.
Oh and I have read all of the messages here, I am sure some would like to know, what the fuck is The Braindance Coincidence???????????????

sorry scary bear if I got way too technical for you. I'll keep it on your level. (which is what? have you ever even opened a computer before?). Just realize that talking computers and aphex twin is damn near as good as sex to me!

Ooh, I's sensing a bit of insultedness there.
Fair play mate, I can actually be a cunt sometimes as I said I can be self opinionated. Hey think what you want, but I agree with U on one thing Aphex makes pretty fucking rude tunes

But I have opened a computer. It wasn't all that thrilling, just undid the screws took out the old sound card and put the new one in. Um, not much to talk abut there, shit now I am talking on "your level" it just sounds like I am trying to take the piss. Forget it, that is all I got to say.
