Bob Dylan, have an opinion?
I was too young to see Dylan in the 60s. It wasnt until 1974 when he toured with the Band that I was able to see him at the Forum in LA. It wasnt the best place to see a concert but what a show. As we listened one last time an' we watched with wit...

Power cords - a BASIC question
Hi Fritz, I have no idea why. I dont care why. Techniclly I do not know what I am talking about so these things never get in my way. Take a listen and see (hear) what you think. After hearing what the better PCs can do it might make sense to you t...
