My kids (9 and 6) started with touch devices but are increasingly preferring an actual PC. I just bought a Dell G3 gaming laptop (in addition to the Lenovo PC we already owned) so that I didn't have to give up my MacBook every time the

I'm a Maschine user as well, but I've got a background in guitar, having played in rock bands from my early teens through mid-20s. I've always been intrigued by MIDI, but always felt "limited" by piano-style keyboar

This looks amazing. It appears to have absolutely everything I need. For $150 I'm willing to give it a trial. I'm currently using Pancake ( http://pancakeapp.com ) which is also self-hosted, so I'm fine with that. D

I've been evaluating PM/bug-tracker apps lately. I'm in a unique scenario, maybe an interested party could give me some guidance: I build WP sites for a local design agency (my client) who designs the theme for their client.

this is how I feel about every Geocities archive I've seen...everything except MY page. Mine was up well into 2001, but the Wayback Machine is the only site that has even a trace of it.

I think a lot of people forget that US = United States. That is, states that are united. The electoral college attempts to "balance" the power that each STATE has to elect a president. The election is a state-level function. In my
