But before we get a disturbance in the force you felt this week it with a final death spasm of CompUSA retail outlets though the website and customer list. -- And actually. Some pretty cool accessories so the scoop on a steel ones that win the group came -- to clear everything -- that the prices went up and and they made like a -- cut under them. Well that's how copy music and I always worked in the stores -- compelling high daily prices because you get Rivera right now it's I can think about all the stuff like all the emergency purchase of -- because CompUSA was."

" Open till 9 PM. No more going to have to like trying to Fries by 7 o'clock or you know mail order for overnight -- individual ago and it right yet whether this -- cutting it like every 10% every week for two weeks. So the last couple weeks stuff was that it you read on the forums and everybody has their worst -- about someone who has CompUSA right it was like. Oh my gosh the service was this this guy told me about how I needed to have this piece for my computers that think they made their bed well that it also that is that the popular on line shopping questions crossed them right choices. To be but anyway and tiger direct obviously. Just cheap cheap to buy online not she had brick and mortar store so oh and something else. Yeah because shut down the we have these last analog cellular phone service it got turned off if you really eighteenth analog cellular survived by popular and a diverse collection of competing digital standards did you -- you respond I had. Yeah I'm dating myself I had those liberal bricks with a handy little case have my dad and one of those Motorola -- I didn't have my first I was 2720. Years old formula first cell phone.

I think people like about analog was the inability to go into rural areas and so -- coverage WiMax going to happen with digital what they've been trying to that there they've been building out all the rural areas where they had. Really important little coverage because they basically they've known about this for years is like of this snuck up on anybody can. And they're basically giving basically forcing people to move from to -- coverage. But that anybody out there who's been you know forced out of it for analog cell phone went dead couple weeks ago I don't know why kicks in emails it's obviously colonists it to.

Now that she's not -- civic duties and likable revision three's very on the interactive designer Stephanie she's."

" Should be on the show on a column had the -- interactive designer and an actor won't what I is. Anything that you do see is when I make so I kind of pixels. Payment hurt pixels doesn't work. Will they called me that pixel princess from a business card which. Kind of scary. It. At that but the key is not high maintenance no definitely not."

" So Nixon had a question about your viewers were with us so we're talking about. Like creating. Graphics right here degrading -- coming -- pencils -- what's the difference between a vector graphics tool draster graphics to earth like what's factor versus faster graphics well it."

" I'm glad that we hadn't and it because. It is --"

" It whenever we get into graphic and it'll figure a lot of time if you know the difference which continue and so ration back that is. This is -- like a flood out the details about the meat out of dot. -- Yes a bit map and and those are good for anything with a lot of colored. Anything just me at -- and on the outside of vector graphics are not about their -- points in mind so there. The graphics -- John mathematically and that means that they can scale as big as -- As -- as a billboard larger or as small as you know say for business card."

" So could be like you know. The thing that was obviously went from bit map to ever master graphics and vector graphics GPS -- actually like. You know zoom in -- add yet Google maps is it would be great example."

" Yet he and I economy dispute. If if any can be limited that's a vector effect yet are. As they sometimes call it SEG available vector graphics and so are some typical file types or vector -- you know Adobe illustrator EPS. PD yes postscript. Right right. You would like the Google to what does that -- satellite stuff that was the case where was actually -- graphics yet -- is that it's a program okay if you're looking that you know someone's door and see. Part of a picture and get blurry when -- stretch. Because those dots are stretching so. You know when they're stretched out an inquiry are so what do make it look she's vector graphics to a rafter for a master class there. -- Fat what if you're gonna make it look I highly recommend starting in Adobe illustrator or anything -- told because. It in. Eventually this -- this going to be -- purpose is gonna get -- can you -- have cited you know and the what you want to do is planned for that scaling. And so if you have a good opponent her party ever -- to make me want to make sure that you effective program because you know separate colors. And skeleton tweak it -- mean does it reduce the keep the -- PS scantily postscript files so like the classic vector graphics department. Is that I can sit converted into PDF let me eat yes and ai are heavily supported. But PDF version so even. It's more likely. Reported to -- that these -- years -- the daily planet aren't something different. Ignore me an editor actually look at you want to have that Adobe yet the fillets and because he can't hit it turns postscript files and Expedia. He's talking on and make it past due to move the background like portrait photo where to start. A raptor at. Graphic requests so are you gonna use Adobe Photoshop because you're working with individual pixels and portions of a photograph and you and I just moving points and lines them -- The network -- useful the NC you know. Paint the windows. Yes I I don't use paint. Right to make a poster it's gotten both photos and text which you be using. Well that's and that's project because in that. He could get to use both Photoshop and analysts share I recommend starting with any graphic element. Like a photograph. In Adobe Photoshop since his -- are you gonna want it to be pretty high as -- at least they had to DPI and when you're done manipulating those photos and Photoshop. In import them into an illustrator and that's -- I would go ahead and laid down the pet. You know make sure that Texas turned into outline. And then when you're done including those that vector graphics you expert to eat -- EPS I just --"

" So we have -- have you read the PS UP DF file if you scale it does the bit map. Picture inside of that doesn't really scale well."

" No actually have to hit it a bit map faster image and so even though the and it PS. It's still gonna get blurry play you know hopefully it high -- that -- printed. But year's taxes grade because that's who the presentation and you can put all funky. He asked. So Photoshop 650 bucks without tax. That pricey and it it's. Where it in my it is what you do your -- emulator pet pig and it it and it go professionally. Look at that's hot button and I and a huge and it that would. But yeah on a budget that some other alternatives. There's Kyle painter which is -- write about them under 400 dollars but the free the free one and again. And it's a classic. -- like the open source version of I guess you build any new news yeah. Picture I and like my and it. Student discounts -- well yeah yeah. Now when Conde. Where. That. -- Yes it is it illustrator 600 bucks yet is not the and it costs it epiphany that there -- with them and -- other. Alternatives and there -- oddly enough happen the factors. Editing program and then they knew that that extreme and then he has. What we've definitely it is in gay. Man."

" That is -- we could get about people you know actually after essentially they -- it's amazing it's like yeah except it's -- yes."

" And you know I can see less -- excited about that because if you're gonna do is canceling. -- people help you do that because it. It's a lot of it being that you need to do an illustrator. Basic things like heating drying. Now cloned -- beings -- just and they got a nice array of colors me kings and so. It off so import. That file constantly Marty talked about Mikey he and relief -- and sent so you know. -- in his original pirate was done and you know those expensive programs you can still use this free program to. Get erect and."

" Now you that we said that. When these retirement earlier is that the palace the tools the icons. Like usually like can't think -- right it is sort of a Photoshop he's feeling in those fields and."

" Yeah how critics -- the payload bay right now many Photoshop let's cut and analyze this and it Wallace's of the Photoshop dragging it could well ink -- hair. Has done something a little bit different. A it doesn't relative to hair. And I think that they've made and nice effort to try to be. More meaningful lift their icons but and that's to be a -- that the job that for a lot of people is that. They just are familiar and when he's icons they look very human very different time."

" So you're you're used illustrator this is gonna be painful if you want to move up to illustrator you're gonna be spending some timely trying to -- right."

" There's just there's a learning curve with these -- that's a little bit. Legged and I would buy it could I do recommend. -- it could read at least today is Emanuel and that leaves me to another. Down at Helen's example being about east gate is that these -- and then not. Everybody is gonna need -- it."

" Jargon like. Graphics maven -- jargon like word they come up with this term -- in the people that wrote it -- it."

" I think in that -- thing out there it to be different and you know and and that you know. Where then it's probably more meaningful but here -- new users it does it mean a whole lot and so yes -- you have -- it. They hit TV icon down in the last loans. Me he just -- something. Opening bank statements are is that -- I just noticed it because on trying to you know movement screen opera and and Photoshop I'm going to cost me eight our XP ever and here. Take that the district there's so much different I mean they've been it's been a -- people especially me and you know it if Mac users he's command and buy it -- if you iMac he's using it unit use control that isn't here. -- Them. And so we can just go ahead and just drop something. I can't -- that hurt. Legacy. Feature and that's patch cake. Check if he can save it as. Okay here again. You say this as a PDF and or SDG and you know it exists as compliant now programs. Now and -- just something."

" Did you find a lot of whether any tools. Missing from illustrator that you would who would like this in exchange for."

" Some I found any we'll miss being mean its its pretty basic when I is effective and time and basically as John points lines inclined. Things. You know his dementia and I haven't. Done to adjust -- mean illustrator has. Cool things like filters -- making. Buttress pretty cool yes. Basically the -- picture do it I had Kensington. That it's a sentient things. You're working organisms. And so is it going and evenings -- Yeah I not fellow robot on -- laptop candidates I just thought I'd make one that was. It's super he's picking -- yeah and here come I think it's free so I would just got a single thread and it's gonna do everything they need it. Basically in an L shape it illustrator sound I think up for it."

" I think that you so much -- what she answered questions. But vigorous -- graphic gets Maurer graphical question that there's a website questions or website design questions who fired step if you."

" Revision 3 dot cop or there. It's time begins with a freebie download of the week nifty software that won't retaining. In today's date MP3 tank yeah if you -- large collection of CD's chances are you might need to edit some of those studies in your collection. -- you could use something like iTunes and edit them. Generally can be pretty clunky and slow affair. With NBC ten just open up to pull the -- files are stored in the anyway. By simply speak at what you did it many other digital music formats including ABC -- plug in WIN thing. -- application all you need to do is open directory where the files when they're that are stored. Select and it'll be automatically be imported into NBC today. If you don't have any pre existing -- or is it takes sources from the drop down menu selecting appropriate online database. -- If yes additional flaws want to change just on the same process to know whether it's an MP3 reflects -- its -- as each individual albums in its own separate folder. -- tech is that easy in shifts that free to -- to try and organize all those digital music files as you seasick."

" We're talking about digital music Patrick what is stuff because we have expect a speaker to. Decent set of speakers to really suck right -- or. Why Massachusetts ran speakers shouldn't sluggish beach get any email from being -- you write these as I've migrated all my music listening to my computers or computer speakers from two piece on -- really could you cover all price point these. BJ in debt for new Jersey's self my personal favorite government mile cubicle back office web -- PW six no one's gonna to a 500 watt amplifier nice setup and philosophical little actual look recycle -- older you know audio here. Who doesn't have BMW just as old audience here to sit around how well I can no longer use that I can add and the -- small house and Housley that we might very small cubicle -- Have a dance party the entire floor but. I I love music like stereo -- basically stacked -- on our -- amplifier and the couple speakers and sub over there and you've gotten ridiculous audio quality. You can also if the speakers aren't shielded you can make your old -- T monitor go funky colors do bad things that's of the watch out for. But a hundred bucks or so seems to be the tipping point for really good speakers most of cheaper than that are. Clarity I mean you know -- limited -- the audio that the navy yard sales you can actually it's an amazing speakers with the cheap if you keep your eyes open Craig's list or something. If you wanna something more hi -- We Turkey -- new four dollar computer music monitor in. But they declined I think it was the desktop version of that clock radio if you own one of those put these on your list here if you like that -- sounds of people really like it it's -- don't. Don't get me started you know my -- is friends don't let friends buy those some people really enjoy what those those audio -- Apparently you -- hear -- very -- low end of little -- top and yeah well -- read it what is the case what you actually we did before we get into the these ultimate version of TV top end you were talking about four -- speakers that you love."

" Also easily of the security checks of the matter fact what these pairs which appears the eclipses are to -- certified -- that it that's a rigorous program that that involves both. Manufacturing standards and listening standards -- good to meet the -- standard. Those guys actually worked with a razor did seismic gaming mice to develop a set of speakers from the ground up to be THX -- they actually work in their -- these things. And they're very funky looking for there they're like mark Levinson different. So there to the downward firing and projecting -- of the plane because. High frequencies the sound coming up this code is very nearly projected so you have to be right in front of being sweet spot. By projecting down and then distributing you get much richer sound field. They were great and the sounds so good anywhere music and gaming -- I'm actually so there -- for music but I mean the music really -- on anything from you know like old Frank Sinatra through the craziest -- and throughout them they're very tight because. It also done in you know speakers called by application that each driver in the speakers that has its own discrete amplifier means that if you hard course. -- I mean it was a measly price this reporter bucks for that. -- Okay seem like site that -- really like -- at the base was really -- this is what it's. Talking -- us a book but actually as a sub over. The."

" Okay as we actually have this is we have -- figures secretive senate and have. The guy you know the guard BJ was I don't two point one speakers right that's like a -- offering a pair speakers right. And creative I ask for the creative 3000 users they're usually song from ninety box. And they have like. The world's tiniest civil groups usually yet. And the recycle walkie talkie speaker right it's a little they're -- walking talking speakers and actually a pair of you know sticks for the the mid to high end. I'm very TV -- for exponent pretty easily you basically have to spend a lot of time writing the little. Well for control so it's got a very nice separate volume control and it's the only speakers we have here that I don't want to deal with the creative actually go. Headphone outputs you know diesel and from your computer. But it was amazing how little base actually came out of this device which you cranked it up a lot not bad you know but for ninety bucks a lot better."

" And actually they -- the next step up creative that folks -- created apparently you have to check out T forties -- amazing. And actually they sounded pretty clean Roger it's really like these it's the powers like you can at the back in the -- worked -- forty these cellular like 13240. Bucks. Com they've got like basically diversity is the T twenty to teach what he's only gonna have the single. Midrange private drivers of the dual you thought they -- little -- the midrange. Well I think. Together these is they're very tight in its personal and whereas the tight limits if you look at that composite material they're using in the Combs it's a very rigid material Kevlar the stuff gets very rigid material to get really great cancer responsible I think the way they have these things set. Is to make them very very warm in the middle to hide the fact. That they have no base punch hello and they they have basically like so we have a little bass port your rights it's tuned."

" Case for that so. What we noticed though is that there's not lot of low end on this on your list it and read speaker your listeners you know. I want to see. Man and I'm gonna be means it like that then but you're listened to a lot of -- we're jazz and and idiot stuff were like classic rock where you're not like rocket now internally -- our office but noticeably. I like based on the -- the base all the way up for a lot of the songs were listening to at eighty sort of of presence of the what you need to crank the base of these all the way up and a nice clean speaker no sub over. Capacities which is nice 'cause it make you really simple to set them up your did your computer work. Not bad for music not bad for music no definitely not not that nice Kremlin four was kind of shocked expertise be a lot more expensive than they were these eclipses. Pro media two point one's already been -- as I fighters -- for awhile which is. IPod play Arabic adequate speakers period. D.s were really cheap if you shop around. You can find these 250. Bucks in the foot view here is is. Be dropping stuff. And it's like a six and a half inch sub offer. Out here so what are reasons it kicks who's -- that a bash."

" Infinite and in this thing rows I have actually the button -- at home for might from a gaming -- and I've been happy with it very very happy with -- Yeah and if you if you like listen to music has a -- if you want to feel. You know being beaten on a video game if you you know if you like to do -- 1812 overture if you like. A good baseline even it actually like Sinatra sounds amazing -- amazing on this that showcases like country singer -- that's amazing on this. Really nice clean high end you know good solid -- mid range kicking. Ticket ticket much louder we need stand sitting in the studio be this close to them 120 box under fifteen bucks -- Those kind of like that part is I've I've picked the creative and the clutches is because you pretty much find and any computer store. Or absolutely restore on the line the pretty common there are pretty good brand names the clips as excellent quality creative has been wrapped actually as I was really at this point about the I -- the three thousands stop that. But when you sort of listen into the the -- forties. And that the -- speakers it was amazing how much more music you could fine. For around the same price so. You get out the next thing W and now. I -- actually that the email about print servers coming from Scott. Who writes and it says we doing this one sure the got that I want to print servers from my home network and can't understand why there are wireless print servers. And not wireless print server so if it's plugged into your routers which isn't it accessible to all the computers on the network. I have an HP photo smart 7360. That it like to share -- network haven't had a picture on one physical computer. Which must -- I got the whole thing is that up there could resist Phillies fifty dollars I don't want to bottle worked that's good point I would enter text Scott Scott -- in south in the -- here you go put this over there right. You could be right back. That's my personal -- how. First of all the whole the reason they have wireless print servers is so you have to be -- ethernet Jack for an ethernet cable throughout your house which can actually be incredibly used to you can come back okay sorry I thought it was going to be like and I would probably -- banning today the the second thing is is actually for fifty bucks. Is a really cheap print sort of like to know what you're fighting for fifty bucks for print server a lot corporate servers. Don't work very well in fact I use Linksys for almost all my gear. And one of the most frustrating disappointing tragically. Just just frustrating experiences I've ever had was with the Linksys print server and I I split my by you know. By. -- cable routers might end. You know mice and wireless access point three of the five. Ethernet cards in my house all Linksys. Love Linksys of them the print server you took it out back it would ship basically its its like cropping up one side of might work best actually. Edit edit it it's not just it's not just links is the problem. -- irreversibly -- tutors your emulating USB connections and get over the ethernet the network and you're gonna communicate a lot of times the it's -- all of your special computer. Printer monitor stuff I think it tells that your ink is spreading out -- yes is -- a lot of times those don't actually work over these. But I just could even needing to connect a lot of time to define it if whether or not your printer works so if you're lucky you -- print server part of the company has people list. Of supported printers. I actually -- the wind -- was an airport express. Not for music but actually use the print server pretty handy so yeah -- big that the bonds -- driver the little monitor utility loads up on your XP 2000. -- system or at least XP. That I definitely used. And that the -- Felix artificial airport extreme and airport express had a compatibility list. Which has an amazing list of prayers like it -- everything. Anybody's tested it got into working you know this guy back and -- the nice thing with a weird things about certain Apple products at the airport express. These -- heavy tight knit community that goes out of the way. Sorry hang tight knit community that goes out of their way to tell people about everything you do. So in that case this turns out to have some of the best support as a print server for Mac or PC. A -- because there's that hard core group of Mac people who want to tell everybody about how wonderful it is. So take advantage of that. Whatever -- uses of that -- I mean that thing has been duties and all kinds of ways by the community right yes capsule I mean it's for music it's of you know or its its its got the music it's got the USB for the printer -- local -- you know it's. It's a pretty slick device but if you're buying -- print server I gotta say. -- tech support for the company before you buy it and see what -- supported. Make sure if you buy one you can't check their website or call the company first or have a friend who is actually used it make sure you can return the device is not not just in you know. -- he's Linksys because -- long relationship with them because giving my house is owned Linksys. But it's. Definitely make sure if you buy prints that you return and it doesn't work your printer has. You don't be shocked if you try to get a printer server running and it doesn't work. It's it should be simple so after after the big Patrick Norton bring them here I'm presuming that you're gonna have links solely kind of stuff in the show notes yes absolutely excellent.

" Check the about it until -- mean -- hundred series and of those questions first what comes from men and he writes he says I I've heard rumors that he announcing officially -- be releasing rock band for the week. You bring any merit to this additional insight liquor at least data recorder I don't know squat about you -- I would investigate we've been. First of all they're definitely doing rock band for -- the -- makes sense tonic -- that you see you did confirm in an investors call that it was coming out it was part of their projected earnings so of course -- that's right sometime probably before the Christmas shopping season. I guess I'd probably say it'll be out this summer because that's a great time -- those coordinates well it gets them geared up to be you know potentially brings the Big Apple thought the ball which is what you want to do right I'm with you. All right so the other thing. How about this -- announced last week Disney is way to product called ultimate band. And what. But don't use capital it's not that it's not about the idea here is that it's it's rock band is -- mouse here's the -- antenna there's serious rockers are. And high school musical. So it took it personally going to do real music or real music including a lot of the press release included it well because as they could even when Disney together right. But the idea is that you don't have to buy instruments they're big thing is you -- play this with do we -- which already is you know we've -- already control that you're moving around with right. There's a lot of potential here. I don't. -- And tell you that this game might be bigger than rock band because you don't have to buy anything extra is a great idea isn't half the -- of rock band having that we your guitar controller. Or -- may be a particular mainstream Disney name. Great song selection they can get that part down and control authority comes with a box of the week the gate site I'd defer to your superior gaming dollars. Hannah Montana."

" Micah -- that I belong either regular trying to wire to a room with a 360 and the problem is whenever I've run it through the -- the connection doesn't work one right across the floor of the cable works fine the only logical explanation for this is interference so I must ask. What can cause interference with the Internet people -- great question power cables running parallel to the power lines actually in your walls. Is most likely culprit we have a -- 120 volt line what across it's at ninety degrees that would be perpendicular particular right. Give it again you're ridiculous like that if they want like this you could end up losing your ethernet signals -- rowdy at any different manner. Or go wireless or. You longer to get rid of these kind of -- time and these are occasionally behind your computer you might have the same thing to be here of -- coming -- your speakers you probably have some sort of field -- watch all your cable groundhog the regular ground -- just watch -- cables take a look editing relatives sorted out. And then we have our last question -- comes from -- he says I'm wondering if converting audio files from MP threes at 320 KB PS mostly to the Apple lossless codec will actually increase the bit -- Most ones I've been doing this too can end -- a bit rate from anywhere from 281 to 1152 KB yes what's up is changing the code differently read Apple lossless increase the quality."

" And yeah I do live look at that receive the sponges right and you -- the water and responded ago. Without alienating additional there but you you've made it bigger -- it's essentially what you're doing here Greg Perry we're really starting with MP3. Which is a lost C Brett a glossy format so we're talking abouts and it's already -- that there what there's no point to go back to lossless going from a CD. Apple lossless goods going from an MP3 and AC did it basically any. Compressed file in the heavily compressed he velocity compressed file don't bother try to basically what's happening here.

I guess you run -- iTunes probably because that's what it does Apple waffles right is basically going to outfit there was some music here its music here its music here -- music here and it's basically. Pretending it's making up its its -- this is a really interesting sort of think about it because -- MP3 has had these bits compressed and pulled down. And what he's doing now is coming back into iTunes and asking it to figure out what chunks. The plug academic it real it's kind of like would you take it cards got a lot of rust holes in it put bond don't have but it looks. Kind of like it share it may not actually feel like it shouldn't bother me -- up a couple of years justice by the original CD to use those otherwise. Leave the 320 KB PS and confuses him -- trust us it'll it'll work fine speaking of which please please please please don't --"

No more going to have to like trying to Fries by 7 o'clock or you know mail order for overnight -- individual ago and it right yet whether this -- cutting it like every 10% every week for two weeks. So the last couple weeks stuff was that it you read on the forums and everybody has their worst -- about someone who has CompUSA right it was like. Oh my gosh the service was this this guy told me about how I needed to have this piece for my computers that think they made their bed well that it also that is that the popular on line shopping questions crossed them right choices. To be but anyway and tiger direct obviously. Just cheap cheap to buy online not she had brick and mortar store so oh and something else. Yeah because shut down the we have these last analog cellular phone service it got turned off if you really eighteenth analog cellular survived by popular and a diverse collection of competing digital standards did you -- you respond I had. Yeah I'm dating myself I had those liberal bricks with a handy little case have my dad and one of those Motorola -- I didn't have my first I was 2720. Years old formula first cell phone.

I think people like about analog was the inability to go into rural areas and so -- coverage WiMax going to happen with digital what they've been trying to that there they've been building out all the rural areas where they had. Really important little coverage because they basically they've known about this for years is like of this snuck up on anybody can. And they're basically giving basically forcing people to move from to -- coverage. But that anybody out there who's been you know forced out of it for analog cell phone went dead couple weeks ago I don't know why kicks in emails it's obviously colonists it to.

In terms of pure the promising -- rental titles. Thousand rental titles -- they have like 400 titles. So this little then Apple Kamal. You're gonna give you some others that -- easily attacked on 24 hour thing I noticed on an issue that we'll get them to 24 hour thing is producing industry it's a stupid painful industry standard that is the industry standard for almost every.

" For your support. Yeah we promised you great segment on spectrum is -- graphics all with a free illustrate alternative called geeks eight unfortunately our gas was up your eyeballs jury duty. Now that she's not -- civic duties and likable revision three's very on the interactive designer Stephanie she's."

" Should be on the show on a column had the -- interactive designer and an actor won't what I is. Anything that you do see is when I make so I kind of pixels. Payment hurt pixels doesn't work. Will they called me that pixel princess from a business card which. Kind of scary. It. At that but the key is not high maintenance no definitely not."

" So Nixon had a question about your viewers were with us so we're talking about. Like creating. Graphics right here degrading -- coming -- pencils -- what's the difference between a vector graphics tool draster graphics to earth like what's factor versus faster graphics well it."

" I'm glad that we hadn't and it because. It is --"

" It whenever we get into graphic and it'll figure a lot of time if you know the difference which continue and so ration back that is. This is -- like a flood out the details about the meat out of dot. -- Yes a bit map and and those are good for anything with a lot of colored. Anything just me at -- and on the outside of vector graphics are not about their -- points in mind so there. The graphics -- John mathematically and that means that they can scale as big as -- As -- as a billboard larger or as small as you know say for business card."

" So could be like you know. The thing that was obviously went from bit map to ever master graphics and vector graphics GPS -- actually like. You know zoom in -- add yet Google maps is it would be great example."

" Yet he and I economy dispute. If if any can be limited that's a vector effect yet are. As they sometimes call it SEG available vector graphics and so are some typical file types or vector -- you know Adobe illustrator EPS. PD yes postscript. Right right. You would like the Google to what does that -- satellite stuff that was the case where was actually -- graphics yet -- is that it's a program okay if you're looking that you know someone's door and see. Part of a picture and get blurry when -- stretch. Because those dots are stretching so. You know when they're stretched out an inquiry are so what do make it look she's vector graphics to a rafter for a master class there. -- Fat what if you're gonna make it look I highly recommend starting in Adobe illustrator or anything -- told because. It in. Eventually this -- this going to be -- purpose is gonna get -- can you -- have cited you know and the what you want to do is planned for that scaling. And so if you have a good opponent her party ever -- to make me want to make sure that you effective program because you know separate colors. And skeleton tweak it -- mean does it reduce the keep the -- PS scantily postscript files so like the classic vector graphics department. Is that I can sit converted into PDF let me eat yes and ai are heavily supported. But PDF version so even. It's more likely. Reported to -- that these -- years -- the daily planet aren't something different. Ignore me an editor actually look at you want to have that Adobe yet the fillets and because he can't hit it turns postscript files and Expedia. He's talking on and make it past due to move the background like portrait photo where to start. A raptor at. Graphic requests so are you gonna use Adobe Photoshop because you're working with individual pixels and portions of a photograph and you and I just moving points and lines them -- The network -- useful the NC you know. Paint the windows. Yes I I don't use paint. Right to make a poster it's gotten both photos and text which you be using. Well that's and that's project because in that. He could get to use both Photoshop and analysts share I recommend starting with any graphic element. Like a photograph. In Adobe Photoshop since his -- are you gonna want it to be pretty high as -- at least they had to DPI and when you're done manipulating those photos and Photoshop. In import them into an illustrator and that's -- I would go ahead and laid down the pet. You know make sure that Texas turned into outline. And then when you're done including those that vector graphics you expert to eat -- EPS I just --"

" So we have -- have you read the PS UP DF file if you scale it does the bit map. Picture inside of that doesn't really scale well."

" No actually have to hit it a bit map faster image and so even though the and it PS. It's still gonna get blurry play you know hopefully it high -- that -- printed. But year's taxes grade because that's who the presentation and you can put all funky. He asked. So Photoshop 650 bucks without tax. That pricey and it it's. Where it in my it is what you do your -- emulator pet pig and it it and it go professionally. Look at that's hot button and I and a huge and it that would. But yeah on a budget that some other alternatives. There's Kyle painter which is -- write about them under 400 dollars but the free the free one and again. And it's a classic. -- like the open source version of I guess you build any new news yeah. Picture I and like my and it. Student discounts -- well yeah yeah. Now when Conde. Where. That. -- Yes it is it illustrator 600 bucks yet is not the and it costs it epiphany that there -- with them and -- other. Alternatives and there -- oddly enough happen the factors. Editing program and then they knew that that extreme and then he has. What we've definitely it is in gay. Man."

" That is -- we could get about people you know actually after essentially they -- it's amazing it's like yeah except it's -- yes."

" And you know I can see less -- excited about that because if you're gonna do is canceling. -- people help you do that because it. It's a lot of it being that you need to do an illustrator. Basic things like heating drying. Now cloned -- beings -- just and they got a nice array of colors me kings and so. It off so import. That file constantly Marty talked about Mikey he and relief -- and sent so you know. -- in his original pirate was done and you know those expensive programs you can still use this free program to. Get erect and."

" Now you that we said that. When these retirement earlier is that the palace the tools the icons. Like usually like can't think -- right it is sort of a Photoshop he's feeling in those fields and."

" Yeah how critics -- the payload bay right now many Photoshop let's cut and analyze this and it Wallace's of the Photoshop dragging it could well ink -- hair. Has done something a little bit different. A it doesn't relative to hair. And I think that they've made and nice effort to try to be. More meaningful lift their icons but and that's to be a -- that the job that for a lot of people is that. They just are familiar and when he's icons they look very human very different time."

" So you're you're used illustrator this is gonna be painful if you want to move up to illustrator you're gonna be spending some timely trying to -- right."

" There's just there's a learning curve with these -- that's a little bit. Legged and I would buy it could I do recommend. -- it could read at least today is Emanuel and that leaves me to another. Down at Helen's example being about east gate is that these -- and then not. Everybody is gonna need -- it."

" Jargon like. Graphics maven -- jargon like word they come up with this term -- in the people that wrote it -- it."

" I think in that -- thing out there it to be different and you know and and that you know. Where then it's probably more meaningful but here -- new users it does it mean a whole lot and so yes -- you have -- it. They hit TV icon down in the last loans. Me he just -- something. Opening bank statements are is that -- I just noticed it because on trying to you know movement screen opera and and Photoshop I'm going to cost me eight our XP ever and here. Take that the district there's so much different I mean they've been it's been a -- people especially me and you know it if Mac users he's command and buy it -- if you iMac he's using it unit use control that isn't here. -- Them. And so we can just go ahead and just drop something. I can't -- that hurt. Legacy. Feature and that's patch cake. Check if he can save it as. Okay here again. You say this as a PDF and or SDG and you know it exists as compliant now programs. Now and -- just something."

" Did you find a lot of whether any tools. Missing from illustrator that you would who would like this in exchange for."

" Some I found any we'll miss being mean its its pretty basic when I is effective and time and basically as John points lines inclined. Things. You know his dementia and I haven't. Done to adjust -- mean illustrator has. Cool things like filters -- making. Buttress pretty cool yes. Basically the -- picture do it I had Kensington. That it's a sentient things. You're working organisms. And so is it going and evenings -- Yeah I not fellow robot on -- laptop candidates I just thought I'd make one that was. It's super he's picking -- yeah and here come I think it's free so I would just got a single thread and it's gonna do everything they need it. Basically in an L shape it illustrator sound I think up for it."

" I think that you so much -- what she answered questions. But vigorous -- graphic gets Maurer graphical question that there's a website questions or website design questions who fired step if you."

" Revision 3 dot cop or there. It's time begins with a freebie download of the week nifty software that won't retaining. In today's date MP3 tank yeah if you -- large collection of CD's chances are you might need to edit some of those studies in your collection. -- you could use something like iTunes and edit them. Generally can be pretty clunky and slow affair. With NBC ten just open up to pull the -- files are stored in the anyway. By simply speak at what you did it many other digital music formats including ABC -- plug in WIN thing. -- application all you need to do is open directory where the files when they're that are stored. Select and it'll be automatically be imported into NBC today. If you don't have any pre existing -- or is it takes sources from the drop down menu selecting appropriate online database. -- If yes additional flaws want to change just on the same process to know whether it's an MP3 reflects -- its -- as each individual albums in its own separate folder. -- tech is that easy in shifts that free to -- to try and organize all those digital music files as you seasick."

" We're talking about digital music Patrick what is stuff because we have expect a speaker to. Decent set of speakers to really suck right -- or. Why Massachusetts ran speakers shouldn't sluggish beach get any email from being -- you write these as I've migrated all my music listening to my computers or computer speakers from two piece on -- really could you cover all price point these. BJ in debt for new Jersey's self my personal favorite government mile cubicle back office web -- PW six no one's gonna to a 500 watt amplifier nice setup and philosophical little actual look recycle -- older you know audio here. Who doesn't have BMW just as old audience here to sit around how well I can no longer use that I can add and the -- small house and Housley that we might very small cubicle -- Have a dance party the entire floor but. I I love music like stereo -- basically stacked -- on our -- amplifier and the couple speakers and sub over there and you've gotten ridiculous audio quality. You can also if the speakers aren't shielded you can make your old -- T monitor go funky colors do bad things that's of the watch out for. But a hundred bucks or so seems to be the tipping point for really good speakers most of cheaper than that are. Clarity I mean you know -- limited -- the audio that the navy yard sales you can actually it's an amazing speakers with the cheap if you keep your eyes open Craig's list or something. If you wanna something more hi -- We Turkey -- new four dollar computer music monitor in. But they declined I think it was the desktop version of that clock radio if you own one of those put these on your list here if you like that -- sounds of people really like it it's -- don't. Don't get me started you know my -- is friends don't let friends buy those some people really enjoy what those those audio -- Apparently you -- hear -- very -- low end of little -- top and yeah well -- read it what is the case what you actually we did before we get into the these ultimate version of TV top end you were talking about four -- speakers that you love."

" Also easily of the security checks of the matter fact what these pairs which appears the eclipses are to -- certified -- that it that's a rigorous program that that involves both. Manufacturing standards and listening standards -- good to meet the -- standard. Those guys actually worked with a razor did seismic gaming mice to develop a set of speakers from the ground up to be THX -- they actually work in their -- these things. And they're very funky looking for there they're like mark Levinson different. So there to the downward firing and projecting -- of the plane because. High frequencies the sound coming up this code is very nearly projected so you have to be right in front of being sweet spot. By projecting down and then distributing you get much richer sound field. They were great and the sounds so good anywhere music and gaming -- I'm actually so there -- for music but I mean the music really -- on anything from you know like old Frank Sinatra through the craziest -- and throughout them they're very tight because. It also done in you know speakers called by application that each driver in the speakers that has its own discrete amplifier means that if you hard course. -- I mean it was a measly price this reporter bucks for that. -- Okay seem like site that -- really like -- at the base was really -- this is what it's. Talking -- us a book but actually as a sub over. The."

" Okay as we actually have this is we have -- figures secretive senate and have. The guy you know the guard BJ was I don't two point one speakers right that's like a -- offering a pair speakers right. And creative I ask for the creative 3000 users they're usually song from ninety box. And they have like. The world's tiniest civil groups usually yet. And the recycle walkie talkie speaker right it's a little they're -- walking talking speakers and actually a pair of you know sticks for the the mid to high end. I'm very TV -- for exponent pretty easily you basically have to spend a lot of time writing the little. Well for control so it's got a very nice separate volume control and it's the only speakers we have here that I don't want to deal with the creative actually go. Headphone outputs you know diesel and from your computer. But it was amazing how little base actually came out of this device which you cranked it up a lot not bad you know but for ninety bucks a lot better."

" And actually they -- the next step up creative that folks -- created apparently you have to check out T forties -- amazing. And actually they sounded pretty clean Roger it's really like these it's the powers like you can at the back in the -- worked -- forty these cellular like 13240. Bucks. Com they've got like basically diversity is the T twenty to teach what he's only gonna have the single. Midrange private drivers of the dual you thought they -- little -- the midrange. Well I think. Together these is they're very tight in its personal and whereas the tight limits if you look at that composite material they're using in the Combs it's a very rigid material Kevlar the stuff gets very rigid material to get really great cancer responsible I think the way they have these things set. Is to make them very very warm in the middle to hide the fact. That they have no base punch hello and they they have basically like so we have a little bass port your rights it's tuned."

" Case for that so. What we noticed though is that there's not lot of low end on this on your list it and read speaker your listeners you know. I want to see. Man and I'm gonna be means it like that then but you're listened to a lot of -- we're jazz and and idiot stuff were like classic rock where you're not like rocket now internally -- our office but noticeably. I like based on the -- the base all the way up for a lot of the songs were listening to at eighty sort of of presence of the what you need to crank the base of these all the way up and a nice clean speaker no sub over. Capacities which is nice 'cause it make you really simple to set them up your did your computer work. Not bad for music not bad for music no definitely not not that nice Kremlin four was kind of shocked expertise be a lot more expensive than they were these eclipses. Pro media two point one's already been -- as I fighters -- for awhile which is. IPod play Arabic adequate speakers period. D.s were really cheap if you shop around. You can find these 250. Bucks in the foot view here is is. Be dropping stuff. And it's like a six and a half inch sub offer. Out here so what are reasons it kicks who's -- that a bash."

" Infinite and in this thing rows I have actually the button -- at home for might from a gaming -- and I've been happy with it very very happy with -- Yeah and if you if you like listen to music has a -- if you want to feel. You know being beaten on a video game if you you know if you like to do -- 1812 overture if you like. A good baseline even it actually like Sinatra sounds amazing -- amazing on this that showcases like country singer -- that's amazing on this. Really nice clean high end you know good solid -- mid range kicking. Ticket ticket much louder we need stand sitting in the studio be this close to them 120 box under fifteen bucks -- Those kind of like that part is I've I've picked the creative and the clutches is because you pretty much find and any computer store. Or absolutely restore on the line the pretty common there are pretty good brand names the clips as excellent quality creative has been wrapped actually as I was really at this point about the I -- the three thousands stop that. But when you sort of listen into the the -- forties. And that the -- speakers it was amazing how much more music you could fine. For around the same price so. You get out the next thing W and now. I -- actually that the email about print servers coming from Scott. Who writes and it says we doing this one sure the got that I want to print servers from my home network and can't understand why there are wireless print servers. And not wireless print server so if it's plugged into your routers which isn't it accessible to all the computers on the network. I have an HP photo smart 7360. That it like to share -- network haven't had a picture on one physical computer. Which must -- I got the whole thing is that up there could resist Phillies fifty dollars I don't want to bottle worked that's good point I would enter text Scott Scott -- in south in the -- here you go put this over there right. You could be right back. That's my personal -- how. First of all the whole the reason they have wireless print servers is so you have to be -- ethernet Jack for an ethernet cable throughout your house which can actually be incredibly used to you can come back okay sorry I thought it was going to be like and I would probably -- banning today the the second thing is is actually for fifty bucks. Is a really cheap print sort of like to know what you're fighting for fifty bucks for print server a lot corporate servers. Don't work very well in fact I use Linksys for almost all my gear. And one of the most frustrating disappointing tragically. Just just frustrating experiences I've ever had was with the Linksys print server and I I split my by you know. By. -- cable routers might end. You know mice and wireless access point three of the five. Ethernet cards in my house all Linksys. Love Linksys of them the print server you took it out back it would ship basically its its like cropping up one side of might work best actually. Edit edit it it's not just it's not just links is the problem. -- irreversibly -- tutors your emulating USB connections and get over the ethernet the network and you're gonna communicate a lot of times the it's -- all of your special computer. Printer monitor stuff I think it tells that your ink is spreading out -- yes is -- a lot of times those don't actually work over these. But I just could even needing to connect a lot of time to define it if whether or not your printer works so if you're lucky you -- print server part of the company has people list. Of supported printers. I actually -- the wind -- was an airport express. Not for music but actually use the print server pretty handy so yeah -- big that the bonds -- driver the little monitor utility loads up on your XP 2000. -- system or at least XP. That I definitely used. And that the -- Felix artificial airport extreme and airport express had a compatibility list. Which has an amazing list of prayers like it -- everything. Anybody's tested it got into working you know this guy back and -- the nice thing with a weird things about certain Apple products at the airport express. These -- heavy tight knit community that goes out of the way. Sorry hang tight knit community that goes out of their way to tell people about everything you do. So in that case this turns out to have some of the best support as a print server for Mac or PC. A -- because there's that hard core group of Mac people who want to tell everybody about how wonderful it is. So take advantage of that. Whatever -- uses of that -- I mean that thing has been duties and all kinds of ways by the community right yes capsule I mean it's for music it's of you know or its its its got the music it's got the USB for the printer -- local -- you know it's. It's a pretty slick device but if you're buying -- print server I gotta say. -- tech support for the company before you buy it and see what -- supported. Make sure if you buy one you can't check their website or call the company first or have a friend who is actually used it make sure you can return the device is not not just in you know. -- he's Linksys because -- long relationship with them because giving my house is owned Linksys. But it's. Definitely make sure if you buy prints that you return and it doesn't work your printer has. You don't be shocked if you try to get a printer server running and it doesn't work. It's it should be simple so after after the big Patrick Norton bring them here I'm presuming that you're gonna have links solely kind of stuff in the show notes yes absolutely excellent. But what I Felix is paid to this rule it. For those -- you -- watching who don't remember where the show notes are just been released. Revision3.com. Slash Tekzilla. -- want to thank.

" Check the about it until -- mean -- hundred series and of those questions first what comes from men and he writes he says I I've heard rumors that he announcing officially -- be releasing rock band for the week. You bring any merit to this additional insight liquor at least data recorder I don't know squat about you -- I would investigate we've been. First of all they're definitely doing rock band for -- the -- makes sense tonic -- that you see you did confirm in an investors call that it was coming out it was part of their projected earnings so of course -- that's right sometime probably before the Christmas shopping season. I guess I'd probably say it'll be out this summer because that's a great time -- those coordinates well it gets them geared up to be you know potentially brings the Big Apple thought the ball which is what you want to do right I'm with you. All right so the other thing. How about this -- announced last week Disney is way to product called ultimate band. And what. But don't use capital it's not that it's not about the idea here is that it's it's rock band is -- mouse here's the -- antenna there's serious rockers are. And high school musical. So it took it personally going to do real music or real music including a lot of the press release included it well because as they could even when Disney together right. But the idea is that you don't have to buy instruments they're big thing is you -- play this with do we -- which already is you know we've -- already control that you're moving around with right. There's a lot of potential here. I don't. -- And tell you that this game might be bigger than rock band because you don't have to buy anything extra is a great idea isn't half the -- of rock band having that we your guitar controller. Or -- may be a particular mainstream Disney name. Great song selection they can get that part down and control authority comes with a box of the week the gate site I'd defer to your superior gaming dollars. Hannah Montana."

" Micah -- that I belong either regular trying to wire to a room with a 360 and the problem is whenever I've run it through the -- the connection doesn't work one right across the floor of the cable works fine the only logical explanation for this is interference so I must ask. What can cause interference with the Internet people -- great question power cables running parallel to the power lines actually in your walls.

And then we have our last question -- comes from -- he says I'm wondering if converting audio files from MP threes at 320 KB PS mostly to the Apple lossless codec will actually increase the bit -- Most ones I've been doing this too can end -- a bit rate from anywhere from 281 to 1152 KB yes what's up is changing the code differently read Apple lossless increase the quality."

" And yeah I do live look at that receive the sponges right and you -- the water and responded ago. Without alienating additional there but you you've made it bigger -- it's essentially what you're doing here Greg Perry we're really starting with MP3. Which is a lost C Brett a glossy format so we're talking abouts and it's already -- that there what there's no point to go back to lossless going from a CD. Apple lossless goods going from an MP3 and AC did it basically any. Compressed file in the heavily compressed he velocity compressed file don't bother try to basically what's happening here. Is your your your your. I guess you run -- iTunes probably because that's what it does Apple waffles right is basically going to outfit there was some music here its music here its music here -- music here and it's basically. Pretending it's making up its its -- this is a really interesting sort of think about it because -- MP3 has had these bits compressed and pulled down. And what he's doing now is coming back into iTunes and asking it to figure out what chunks. The plug academic it real it's kind of like would you take it cards got a lot of rust holes in it put bond don't have but it looks. Kind of like it share it may not actually feel like it shouldn't bother me -- up a couple of years justice by the original CD to use those otherwise. Leave the 320 KB PS and confuses him -- trust us it'll it'll work fine speaking of which please please please please don't --"
