happy
happyCurrent Music:the sound of a virus scan on Magnolia and the ps3 restarting!
showed up the other day on our doorstop.
So, for the past few years - since I saw the sexyness that is apple's iPods, I wanted a color screen with visualizations - the trippy screen saver kinda thing that worked with the music. Of course iTunes offers it, as do most any decent music player on your computer - MusicMatch and the like.
I also wanted a dvd player that would take the mp3 discs you could burn and play on the dvd player, and give some visuals also - you're using the dvd player, kinda presumptive to have something visual output as well as the audio - but no... still don't think there's a DVD player that does visuals.
But lo and behold - Sony, the fabulous mind behind Beta, MiniDiscs, and finally Blu-ray, offers a very nice gadget to make scotty happy - a PS3.
Nate and Carrie have one, and frankly, it's what makes me realize I need to be a HD living room kinda guy in the next year - I'll settle for my very good 720, but their 1080 across a 50 inch screen, pushed via the blu-ray dvd in the PS3 ... nice.
Back to my happiness though - see this pic -
It ain't a pretty pic, due to light levels, but I'm listening to the mountain goats, and trippin' nicely to some rocking visuals - something about the PS3 being a stunning game machine, pehaps??
Well, it's nice to know that there are items I concieve that actually merit creation!
back to your normals web browsing ...
unless you need to see this -
a cute doggie picture
be good to yourselves...
