1. Toshiba A300 for myself, used but in VG condition... 200€. Bargain!
  2. Dell's are not that ugly imho. And with couponing you get much for your money. Although I only investigated the 800-1000 euro range last summer.
  3. Anyone with a Mac with Mountain Lion installed that knows how to rip audio from a copy-protected (I assume it's copy-protected) DVD?
  4. Bootcamp ?
  5. How does Bootcamp work? Then I could use DVD Decrypter at least.
  6. I dont know, dont have a Mac. I am sure some others may have a better option than bootcamp though
  7. Hopefully some U2-Starters can help me...

    I'm getting a power supply for my pedal board, and I've been looking at this one:



    Problem is, the wall plug it comes with is UK style, and I need the US style wall plug. Luckily, it's a separate part (as you can see), but does anybody know what I'm even looking for in terms of what kind of cable that is? I don't even know what it's called and I'm googling around like an idiot. One end needs to plug into the box, with that trapezoid type shape, and the other end needs to plug into an American-style wall outlet:

  8. What's exactly your question, Matt? Power cables are a bitch but easily switchable as long as voltage is the right one... If the pedal comes with a UK plug but works at the same voltage as you wall plug provides, you only need of of these: http://www.amazon.com/VCT-VP18-Adapter-Converts-Grounded/dp/B000NND600


    Although the power cable show in your pic is NOT the UK type but the standard-Europe type (the one I have in Spain):

  9. This should do you: Amazon.com

    It's a C13 connector

    Oh, and UK plug wins.

  10. An adapter is cheaper and handier, and he can use the makers' cable (always a plus when it comes to electronics IMO)
  11. Also check if the supply supports 120 V 60 Hz input, otherwise just another plug wont work.
  12. Thank you guys so much for your help!
