Apple Abandons Development of Wireless Routers
Apple has gone to hell since Steve Jobs died. It now goes forever between refreshing Macs. The watch is a joke. It says the iPod is a replacement for the PC, but then says it isn't. I could go on, but you get my drift. 
Rolling Stones Blue and Lonesome
I've listened to it but once (yesterday afternoon), and quite liked it from start to finish. I'll be playing it again today -- and likely many more times after that -- but my first impression was really positive. One thing that stood out: the boys...

Why are record cleaners so expensive?
"But you can't compare the Audio Desk to your Spin-Clean device. Apples/oranges."He wasn't comparing the two. He was posing a not uninteresting question, and merely noted what he uses to clean his records.-- Howard

Like a Rolling Stone - Looking for great live Dylan
"... the song is not a ballad."It's funny to see someone saying this about a Dylan song. It's a ballad if someone wants to perform it as such. It could also be done as a reggae tune, a straight-up rocker, a waltz, a punk song, a country number, a ... 
Like a Rolling Stone - Looking for great live Dylan
While I'm well aware that we are talking here about versions by Bob himself, I include, for those interested in hearing a fabulous cover, the following link:http://www.nme.com/news/laura-marling/79991One of the greatest songs ever, sung by a brill... 
Like a Rolling Stone - Looking for great live Dylan
The version from "The Bootleg Series Vol. 4," the so-called Royal Albert Hall concert, is an absolute winner. Others of interest:For a particularly hyperactive Bob (which is not to everyone's taste, of course), there's the one on "Before the Flood...
