THe powers that be in the music industry may end up losing their audience — at least as far as home-trained musicians.

That’s just may opinion, though.

August 28, 2006 – New Equipment for PCs

Well, after a bit of research, I went to Office Max an bought an extrnal hard drive. It has 250 GIG capacity, and with a little help from Dave and his Linux computer; the drive is now formatted for FAT32 file types. This means it should be able to be used on my WinXp and my OS-X computers.

Last I was in the workroom the XP machine was still copying files from my C drive to the SimpleDrive HD. It estimated it would be busy for an hour (last I checked).

Other computer-related things:

I now have USB mouse for my laptop, a USB keyboard for my laptop; and have been able to access my XP hard drive across the LAN.

This means I can copy, then deleted files/images that are ‘clogging up’ the storage space on my internal laptop HD.

Oh, I have speakers hooked up to the OS-X machine, as well.

NO, our Apple laptop batteries are not covered by the recall, in recent news — bummer, huh? If they do die, then we have to replace them at our cost; and/or just use the external power cords.

Enough chatter for now. I need to see how the copying is going in the other room.

Will type more later.
