  1. I ordered that Siamese Dream / Gish combo from popmarket last November. They kept pushing the date out and eventually just canceled my order last week. The customer service isn't very good either. Every time I enquired about my order they said they'd have to escalate it and I'd never hear back again. YMMV.

  2. DIdn't think about this, I may buy one soon.

    Also didn't think about network sharing, thanks for that.

    And if I read this right, I can just install my 1TB, turn on and hold down command-r, and download Mountain Lion by server? If that's the case what I'll do is just download it, then network share from my old computer to transfer files.

    That's the way I read it. Also, once everything is installed and running, I'd boot your old computer into FireWire disk mode and connect it to your new computer. It will be way faster than copying over the network. You can even use migration assistant on the new computer to copy your entire user over to the new computer.
  3. It might not be that simple. How do you plan on backing up the 500 to the 160? You will more than likely need a full bootable clone to restore to the 1TB once it is installed in the new computer.

    The easiest way to accomplish this is with an external hard drive (or an empty hard drive enclosure to install the 1TB in temporarily). In fact, if you were to get an enclosure, you could install the 500GB drive into it when you are through and use it for extra storage.

    Sorry for the radio silence. Been too busy with teaching and studio to continue the distro of the vinyl records. But, getting caught up on things and have another 50 of each flattened and ready to go! I’ll make these available sometime toward the end of next week. Stay tuned, and thanks to everyone for being so patient and kind. Have a great day and wonderful weekend!

  5. Last year I got to my store ten minutes before opening and was like fourth or fifth in line. This year it went completely around the corner. Thank god I am home and got what I wanted. My ears are all stuffy because I am sick so I can't even enjoy this stuff right now. Fuck.

    Sounds like my experience. I actually left because I didn't want to deal with it. Went to another store and everything was pretty well picked over already. There were a few cool people at the front of the crowd that were calling out titles and passing them back to people that couldn't get near the bins. A relatively civil crowd. I'm going to hit up a few stores later when the crowds die out and see if there is anything worth while left over.

    I will have another round of 50 each of Electra and Astronaut made available sometime on Sunday or perhaps early next week. Depends on my studio work schedule. Stay tuned and check back often for details. Thanks!

    Oh my goodness but a few of you are still waiting for your records from the last round. I have a handful that still need to ship. They are packed up now sitting next to me and going out in tomorrow’s mail. If you have not yet received your order you are one of the unlucky ones suffering from me being a bit overworked. Apologies!! Thank you so much for your patience!! Your record is shipping April 17!!

  7. Uh. I would probably shoot them an email.

    I've been sending them emails every few weeks and they just keep pushing the date back. Not sure what's happening there. I only bought these because it was a pretty great deal, if I eventually get them fine, if not fine too. I just don't understand the business model.
