This I know from bitter experience, having blown up my laptop many times!
Reassuring thought...;-}
As always, make sure you back up any valuable data before bringing the machine in, though.
{dumping all to DeadRat at home, which runs Samba ok}
so you can identify which part of the network spagetti is yours at the end of the day.
Exciting...
Just a thought...if I bring a burned copy of PD (www.pure-data.org), (provided it gets as far as sound config), would anyone be interested to have a look?
From the pd site: "Pd" stands for "pure data". Pd is a real-time software system for live musical and multimedia performances. It is in active development by Miller Puckette, and perhaps others. The system is unfinished, but quite useable for sophisticated projects. It has been ported to Linux, IRIX, and Windows NT.
