I wonder why they won't touch the Maestro? Maybe it is because they are so
hard to get hold of. Small setup and thus small production?? Who knows.
 
Anyway, I have a Maestro that works quite well with the Mac and PC. Never
had any problems (except when connecting to some Netcomm modems). I would
recommend them to you.
 
On the Netcomm's - well stay away from the Fax/Modem as I have heard nothing
but complaints about it. Equally, I have heard of problems where a Netcomm
connecting at 2400 MNP will take a long time to return the CONNECT status
and consequently your telecommunications program may time out and treat the
call as unanswered.
 
You may experience problems with any high speed modem if you connect to a
site which requires DTR monitoring. Because the Mac "shares" this pin with
CTS, when CTS/RTS flow control is invoked the remote system (monitoring DTR)
may think you have dropped the connection.
 
All in all, I would recommend the Maestro (because I am satisfied with it) but
perhaps you could purchase the Interlink which is around the same price.
 
Cheers.

My guess is that the two machines have different printers selected in the
Chooser. Having one machine printing to an Imagewriter and the other printing
to a Laserwriter would produce the symptoms described.

A reliable source tells me that it's Andrew, ex-Moffs, and a well known
session drummer.  The Clouds have a gig in Wollongong on Friday, and then
they're off to the snow with the Falling Joys.  Stuart is in Melbourne
at the moment.  If anyone spots him, please give him my regards.

The (1/2) Clouds have always been an acoustic band.  :-) The second Clouds
show I saw was just Jodi & Tricia playing acoustic at the Lansdowne.
That was a week after Club Hoy's debut single launch at the Annandale,
when Clouds were first band on the bill before The Benedicts and Club Hoy.
That dates it to very early in 1990.

I think you can safely buy Psychohum knowing you'll like it.  It's both
darker (Black Bandages) and lighter (A Winter's Tale) than Wish List,
and includes the older favourite Parachute, which is dedicated to Mandy
more often than not.

	Sounds like that to me too! By the way the singer from that band is now
in a band called "Schnell Fenster" ( Which means Open Window in German ). 
If you like "Counting the Beat" I'm sure you'll enjoy what SF is doing. They

While we're all on the topic of naming songs..

About 6 months ago I heard a `first cut' song on JJJ FM which sounded
very depeche mode-ish. It has lyrics that go `touch my heart, touch the
sky' or something like that. Does anyone know what the name and artist
is? I have been told that it is a group from Perth as well...

I'm only following up because of this bit which no-one else has answered.

I can't think of an Icehouse song that is really close. All I can come up
with is "Can't Help Myself" off Icehouse, which is a bit similar. Then
again, I don't know any Icehouse beyond the Flowers period (or at least
I wouldn't admit to it ;-).

Yep, this is where the 'lads' newtork fails.  1 of the guys involved had previously
managed "Men At Work" and "Split Enz" so should have known what he was up
to!  That - is as they say "rock 'n' roll"!

Well, more precisely, about 1 bar after Suzie started in. The guitar

Hi there,

I'm in the market for a DAT recorder, and would like people in the know to 
provide an indication of prices of known units (preferably if you're 
Australian).

Better still, if you can suggest whether buying one second-hand is reliable,
and can indicate the going rates for various units.

Thanks in advance

I read that they are recording the album with Michael Koppelman - noted
in a Melbourne mag as "a producer who has worked with Prince". What they
didn't mention was that he also produced the truly sublime recent album
by Ingrid Chavez (an album on Prince's label for which the purple one
also produced a few tracks).

It's going to be interesting to see how Frente fare in the hands of a
keyboardist with a flair for atmospherics... I think the results may be
interesting.
