Just thought you might like to know that for a couple of days, i am borrowing an Apple TechStep. Damn cool lil collectors item. I once heard that they didn't even make 500 of 'em. Either way, i'm borrowing one for the weekend. The reason i wanted to, is not because its damn cool, but also because my Classic II's sound circuitry is starting to die i think. The TechStep is a device that tests the various bits of chippery in an old Mac, btw.

PICCIES TO COME SOON!

OK...the piccies are up!

On the ftp server, i've created a folder called "techstep", and the piccies should be there. Some, however, mightn't make it...this place isnt very friendly with Fetch...

Either way, the ones that don't make it will either be sent to ~Coxy so that he can put them up, or hosted somewhere else.

Unfortunately, i can't get in through this copy of Netscape. It tells me that the anonymus login is unkown. I havn't had time yet to create a HTML file with the pics, and i don't think i will for maybe a couple of days...Mum wants me to finish these stupid assignments first...

When I first read the title to this thread, I thought you were talking about music. There's a sub-genre of drum 'n bass called "tech step".

Good 2 c u cine, but what a comment!

So The Wedding Present were infamous for making Sweedish folk music & all thier fans wore T-Shirts with "all the songs sound the same" emblazened accross it!

Not really sure what my point is.
