It’s an odd sort of test that looks at how well you can translate sounds into shapes, I managed to score 90%.

Noise

After watching Keith play with Beryl this week I’m itching to scrape together a linux box to mess around with. I’ve got the parts to do it, but after years with iBooks, iMacs and now a MacBook Pro I’m no longer able to stand the noise of a standard tower-based system.

True, I’ve got my old dual-Xeon box that I still use — but for the last few months I keep it in the basement and only access it by SSH.

Anyone got a cheap noise-reduction solution?
