Microsoft Black Screen of Death...Really?!

So, Microsoft who ingenuously based the build of Windows 7 on Vista, is seeming to have a problems with Windows 7...WTF?! you say, it's true.Check out the Black Death Screen courtesy of Windows 7. Yeah! In a little happier news you can buy the new iMac withe a screaming fast i7 chipset, it's faster then a Mac Pro! Hmmm, ask me again why I like Macs and dislike PC's...

The newest digital musical instrument

Quick! Before all the cool kids in town get one. Be the 1st person on your block to own an Eigenharp. It' s a synth, it's a drum machine, it's an electric guitar and also a saxophone if you want it to be. Another sweet musical instrument that's been around for about 25 years is the Chapman Stick, crazy right ? I think one of favorite crazy instrument is the electric Gittler Guitar.
In another note, how long do you think Apple will let this slide?

New iPod Touch to have 802.11n Wi-Fi

Upon taking apart it appears to have a Broadcom BCM4329 chip which supports N Wireless protocol. It has the ability to recieve FM for a radio and BT 2.1 as well. Meanwhile the Zune HD supports HD Radio thus far.

I have to get one of these!!

So again, mark my words, Apple will come out with a sweet tablet iPod well before Microsoft does with a Zune tablet. You naysayers are thinking, "Well what about netbooks?" If you seriously think innovation is a 9 year operating based computer, that generally can't run Microsoft's "flagship" Vista, well I now why you are Microsoft customer and I am an Apple customer. It should look something like this one. Pretty groovy I have to say. I don't see any Zune's like this... There is however Microsoft's Surface. They are shall we say a bit on the spendy side though. Like even if I had an extra $10,000 it would be spent on upgrading the recording studio's software and hardware. It's cool, but $10,000? No "normal" people/consumer's will buy this. Business's, maybe...

Microsoft again lags behind Apple

I have not seen anything remotely like this in a Zune, have you? Apple's new iPod Nano shoots video. How long do we think it will take Microsoft to follow up with a product like this? I know for a fact that Microsoft copies all it's new, trendy ideas from everyone else. What the hell kind of business model is that? If you counted how many iPods you have and how many Zunes you have, I think we know what you have more of...

Why buy Apple?

Apple designs the closed platform software and insures the closed platform hardware work together to benefit you. So you know it works, and it works seamlessly together. UNIX is stable as hell, and it's not Vista. Anyone ever told you they actually like Vista?? A computer should not be a hassle to use, OK? Neither shuld the OS. Any questions? Oh yeah, they make the iPhone!
Enough said.

Microsoft's "Big Guns"

Someone once told me,"Just you wait and see, Microsoft will be pulling out the Big Guns." I do not think this is quite what he & Redmond had in mind...Kind of like a kidney punch when you are down.

The Economy & the coming Sentient Internet

Whew, I was worried there for a minute. I guess the Economy is on the rise as unemployment rates go down to 9.4%. State by state is even worse in some cases. If you think your state's unemployment sucks, be thankful you don't live in Michigan! Maybe Nanotechnology can save us from ourselves and the sorry state of the job market. Can the Internet become Sentient? Some people think yes it will. One can hope. What a great way to control people constantly, Twittering, posting to blogs, and surfing the web, inputing 24/7 It's bound to happen. Wait a minute, it's already Sentient!

So can I get an iPhone like this?

Just when thought the iPhone had all the cool Apps at the App store, this comes out! I say, WTF?! I have to worry about some one jacking my iPod/iPhone & now I have to worry if someone is going to shoot me with a friggin' cell phone! Or use it as a stun gun!?
Again I say, WTF?

As much as I hate on Microsoft...

So Microsoft maybe figured a way to gain an advantage because they say Google "owns" the search advertising business worldwide. In other conspiracy theory's recently, Apple & AT&T are in bed. Something about an iPhone? This is what Papa wants for Xmas!

What year is this?

This was my old band The Heebie Jeebies. Can you guess which one is me? My new band is called Mommy Complex. All these songs I wrote the music, played all the instruments and recorded everything myself. Enjoy!

Goverment Sachs, I mean Goldman Sachs

• Paul Krugman Slams Goldman Sachs: What It Does Is Bad For America (huffingtonpost.com)

So, did I mention Goldman Sachs is still screwing the US taxpayer, stealing money and still getting away with it. As well the US Government plans to have 20,000 troops to be deployed within the US borders by 2011. I say WTF?! Why would we need 20,000 standing uniformed troops within our borders?! It makes no sense at all. Was George Orwell correct in his writing the book: 1984 ? Is anyone doing anything about any of this nonsense?

Can you say "War is good for business...?"

There once was a little company called: Hailburton. They served contaminated water to our Troops knowingly. Dick Cheny was on the board of directors. Maybe you've heard of them?

apple comes out with a new os each year,
microsoft comes out with one every 8 years...

1984, except it's 2009 now...

Have you are wanted to see behind yourself?
I know I'd like to be able to do that.
Leave it to Big Brother and MIT.

Google's new OS!!

Just when Microsoft thought they could get a hold on the PC market Google announced it's Chrome OS (* "an open source, lightweight operating system targeted at netbooks!") The timing could not be any bettter. Microsoft acknowledges no one really likes Vista, and thought because of this that they would sell lots of "netbooks". I do not know about you, but a new computer with 10 year old operating system, Windows XP. Working as a Microsoft contractor, I can assure you yes last year people bought alot of them at the Circuit City I worked at, because they told me flat out, "I hate Vista! It does not work and I like XP better!!" I am totally holding out
for Apple's 9" iPod Touch. It will be the first tablet Mac made & designed by Apple
other then the (really "old school) Newton many moons ago.. You can get the ModBook Steve Wozniak worked on it's a damn sweet toy. It has a built in Wacom tablet! Crazy! I may never leave the house again! This and Photoshop CS IV, and I am in for the Summer! The thing is, Google has the software finesse to come up with a stable OS, in addition to the small footprint Chrome browser. It works great and is superfast. What has Microsoft got on that? Nothing. Well they do have the new version of Windows Mobile 6.5.

Downfall of America

Goldman Sachs will be the downfall of America. See here: The bubble just burst again. Why is it that the same groups of people who are responsible for the The Great Depression & Stock crash of 1929, are not content until the the state of the US Economy is the Great Depression 2.0?

Where is Steve?!

Is this even legal? It sounds Un-American to me.

iPhone or Palm Pre'?

This is awesome! Drag & drop, cut & paste. Apple certainly listens to their consumers. iPhone 3GS an "old" iPhone for $99! The new one is $199! I will not be buying unless I jailbreak it. As well I am seriously considering the Palm Pre' with web OS. The Pre' does of what iPhone can, and has a full qwerty hardware keyboard. This is the first real competitor to the iPhone. The only real difference is the iPhone supports more frequencies and a bigger flash memory. Phonescoop compares them both. Here's a link to Fishbowl by Mommy Complex.

Enjoy!

Logic Pro 8

One word, drooling...Logic is sick! If it's good enough for Trent and NIN it's got to be pretty sweet. I just watched the video about how they use Main Stage live to tweak settings. As well it gives you the ability to edit on the fly. It is an incredible piece of software. Even better it's now $599 instead of $1,200! This and my MacBook Pro and I can take my Studio with me. Brilliant! Bravo Apple! What's Microsoft got on that? Nothing!

Back to school again

So today I have been primarily concerned with going back to school. All my things are in order to go back full time around Autumnal Equinox. I am waiting on authorization to get registered and buy books.

Micron Synth

I recently was able to get my new Micron synth from Alesis. I thought it would be a step down from the Ion, but I was wrong. After waiting 9 months for the Ion to start being produced (The Official word from Guitar Center was some parts are made overseas, being the Ion is very popular they halted production for a bit). It has the same synthesis engine as it's big brother. It's got a ton of built in presets and it completely programmable to my needs. I primarily play guitar but was in need of a multipurpose instrument for composing and scoring for film, video, commercials. It has an excellent vocoder as well ways to tweak the LFO's. I could not ask for a better investment to my DAW. The FM synthesis is fabulous! It's a digital synth that sounds like an analog one! It's very intuitive to use. The main thing I loved was the fact it's very portable and easy to record with. I use a tube pre-amp and compressor into the Mac. I very much do no like PC's.

For my compositions and most recently recorded music go here: Mommy Complex.
