New sound system

I just got my speakers moved into place, ready to be repaired and amped. The home stereo amp doesn’t really like the abuse of this much load, and the volume keeps dipping in and out. I also need to replace the foam surrounds on the speaker cones. It’s a fun work in progress.

Broken iPod

My 5th Gen (video) iPod broke within the first week of ownership. The hard drive was clicking and it was showing a sad iPod boot screen, despite several reset attempts by holding Select (middle) and Menu (up) and putting it in disk mode by pressing Select and Play (down) when the Apple logo is displayed. I took it back to Mac-Pro where my wife bought it, and they sent me to the Apple Store, where it was promptly replaced. It’s working fine now.

New iPod

My wife got me a new iPod over the weekend. It’s the 30 gig video version. I’m still getting used to it, but it’s a LOT of fun.
