Or you could buy this one : http://www.newsengine.be/documents/graphics/fotos-klanten/intel/intel-hoover phonic1.jpg http://www.pocket-lint.co.uk/news/news.phtml/1985/3009/view.phtml If indeed you can live with an Intel based laptop which is outdated by the time you have payed your guitar.. A better idea (unfortunately nothing but an idea, but maybe some of you guys could get involved in making it reality...;-) : http://community.linux.com/community/07/01/31/1951219.shtml?tid=12 -----Original Message----- From: Art Simon [mailto:simart@gmail.com] Sent: zaterdag 14 april 2007 5:34 To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com Subject: Re: I think some of you guys are going to love this--a computer built into a guitar amp I guess I'm just enamored of the "one box" idea. When I mounted the rolls preamp in my computer, high-gain guitar settings gave unacceptable amounts of noise. It was the interaction of the preamp and the computer. While the pickups can cause some problems in proximity to a computer, that hasn't been a big problem for me. I'd love to have an amp that ran mobius and my guitar amp sims. You could just turn the power on and start playing anywhere. Imagine it had a battery. I'd love it. On 4/13/07, Krispen Hartung <khartung@cableone.net> wrote: > I don't get it.
