Bel Canto's USB Link 24/96 converts USB audio to S/PDIF

Dec 2nd 2008 12:28PM on Engadget

You're kidding right? $25 on eBay (I own one): http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=m38&_nkw=UDA1321. Uses a commodity Philips USB audio chip and a TI commodity SPDIF encapsulation chip. Does DD/DTS too.

Apple settles out MacBook class action lawsuit

The "millions of colours" argument isn't the point. All 6-bit LCDs only display a subset of the available 16.7 million available in the 24-bit range. The eye is fooled by the use of dithering techniques, and most manufacturers do this well enough to not be noticeable.

The problem is that Apple's dithering is sub-par, and so many cases colour banding is obvious, particularly in images with smooth colour gradations.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
