Turn tapes into iTunes with Plusdeck, maybe?

I have been lusting after one of these for ages. The Plusdeck is a 5.25" cassette tape deck for your computer, and up till now has only been available for PC's. Because, let's face it, it's a freaky piece of kit. And one thing those Windozers can hold over Maccultists heads: freaky PC mod components. Well I, for one, wish the tide to turn. Come on! Dave Caolo has pronounced the end of CD's, and heralded the 6.6% market share for Apple! It's time to claim that freaky gear again people.

You see, Plusdeck is currently seeking a Mac programmer to port their apps to OS X. Presumably this will allow you to cram one of these babies in that mirror-door G4 you've been recording your masterpiece on... Now all you need is a Mellotron and a MIDI-Theremin for Garageband and you shall become the true Lord of the Dance. Or at least be able to get those truck stop tapes in iTunes.
