could one do their own work on an aston martin? Or would that all be $$$ on top of the $100k for it?

labour would be so time intensive even if you had the skills and tools that you would not want to do it, not to mention the parts would kill you regardless.

This is anandtech. You're going to ass raped for saying you like Apple products :ninja:

:biggrin:

I've spent (wasted) more money on piece of shit laptops than most of the folks here combined. I do speak from experience. MBP is AMG, Alienware or (insert other high end PC here) is Ford Mustang. Figure it out!

OSX gets on my nerves but for something that I can fling open and use, it just plain works. It doesn't creak, get extremely hot or have a palm rest that gets all shitty looking in a month's time because it was made from cheesy Chinese plastic picked by the lowest bidder for Compal. :mad:

The only thing I don't care about is the display. It should be IPS. Super AMOLED+ will probably come out for high end lappies before more IPS/Super LCD screens do. Nice too since I don't like the un natural looking whites of LED backlit displays. It's a cold looking cast like a POS DLP TV that was "calibrated" by a pot smoking dropout working for Geek Squad.

As long as they keep the 17" 1920x1200 and don't go to the shitty 1080P bullshit. Fuck 16:9 computer displays.

parts might be less problematic than we think. Assuming that you buy one from the owned by Ford period

Put my RGB to HDMI converter to use last night with mixed results.

Can't tell if it's the HDPVR being wonky. My netbook being shitty. Or the codec breaks.

Either way. Progress was made.

About 10%-ish of the .MP4 videos I've fixed up have came out broken. Haven't gotten to check all my videos, but could be even more than that. Even more saddening, that I may have lost several videos that I can't go back & redo.

I'm going to record with .TS only for a while & see how that goes.
Only hassle .TS gives me is when I record voice-over in AVS, it says incompatible or something. But am able to import into project after I fix the audio in Audacity.

Whatever. If experimentation, error & mistakes required for progress, then it's ok, I guess.
