  1. My thought.
  2. The most embarassing thing is a pretending fun work that isn't fun at all on The New Yorker
  3. Record III : Pink Moon Record I : Five Leaves Left
  4. Blonde On Blonde - Bob Dylan, Sundazed mono reissue
  5. Probably because The Aging ______Market forgets everything after five months?
  6. I'll wait for Sidewinder's report prior to consider a purchase of original mix.
  7. I have the mosaic reissue, is the mix so different from the original issue?
  8. Giorgio Gaslini passed away at the Borgotaro hospital. He was 84 years old. He was one the greatest italian musicians and composers. Sorry I found only italian links, I am sure later on the news will be english speaking websites. http://www.repubblica.it/spettacoli/musica/2014/07/29/news/la_scomparsa_di_giorgio_gaslini-92644559/?ref=HREC1-7 Gaslini website: http://www.giorgiogaslini.it/en/
  9. Charlie Haden is one of those players that pushed me into jazz. R.I.P.
  10. Useless? Everything looks much cleaner on the Retina display. Every web page you go to with imbedded video, photographs, or HD graphics are much improved with the Retina display. Apps look sharper, your personal photographs, etc... If all you're going to use your Macbook/iPad for is typing and reading text, then the Retina display would be useless. If it were useless, people wouldn't have been clamouring for Apple to release an iPad Mini with Retina display. It also would have never become the standard on all the other iDevices. http://www.imore.com/ipad-ipad-2-retina-display-tests Maybe useless isn't the correct word, yes retina is better, I have an iPhone with retina and Iove it, but the quality of non retina monitor is just ok for eveything I do on the lap top, and I am no an eagle eye.
  11. Unless you watching movies or editing them or you are a graphic designer, the retina is useless IMHO
  12. IMHO a lap top has a lot of useful things more then a tablet and the external keyboard is an hassle. I have a MacBook Pro without retina and I am fine.
  13. With the notable exception of his lot, I guess.... Lots of tourist guide...
  14. Well, it saves me lots of money
  15. Yes, Italy was really disappointing -- not just that they didn't advance but that they played so flat, to my eye. I know there is tremendous passion for the game in Italy, so this must be a real disappointment (as with Spain and England). The point is that only Pirlo, De Rossi and Buffon are really great players, but they are old now, the young ones are just good or decent players. Unfortunately these are the best of today's campionato (italian league). Italy went down Fifa ranking and italian teams missed all the international competitions in the last years. The second place at european cup two years ago was some sort of miracle that masked the poor level of italian leagues.
