There's a reason professional keyboards and synths are filled with dials, buttons and levers.

Roland's System-8 synth has such a display, but nearly everything you need is at your fingertips, and that's great.
Roland's System-8 synthesizer does almost everything

Retro Mac themes for RapidWeaver
It would seem that today is retro theme day on TUAW, at least for me that is. Jordan saw my last post about the System 6 theme for Wordpress and he let me know about his retro themes for RapidWeaver. You can pick from System 7, System 8 (my first Mac ran 8.6, ahh the memories), or even Be (which isn't an Apple OS, but it was created by an Apple guy, so it counts).Each theme costs $4, though there is a System Bundle that'll get your both System 8 and 7 themes for $7.50.
