**Pretty Cool** Sound-Off board

This morning I noticed an ad in The Orlando Sentinel about this new board which just opened yesterday. It's called the Sound-Off board where you complain about whatever you want. It seems pretty funny. It's at this page.

I checked that out, and it is pretty cool for $29.95.
I sent the EQ-50 back after I had problems with background hiss myself. I actually now use a jerry-rigged old boombox of mine that has a 5-band equalizer (just patch from my speakers to the boombox with a line-in cord and then plug my headphones into the boombox).

I wonder if there is some kind of cheap USB-to-USB adapter you could plug into your computer and then plug the Turtle Beach into? I personally wouldn't want to keep plugging and unplugging something like that to be able to use the speakers (from past experience with plugging and unplugging keyboards and phones and such too much, I've learned to just use a little in-between, easily replaceable adapter/cable/etc. in order to save the wear and tear on the device's actual jack/socket).
Pretty cool. I'll be looking forward to a Discovery program about this. nm

Dunno.... the QA's who post on here sound pretty
Reading about how perfect they all say they are, how they never make a mistake, and all the rest of us are bastically illiterate, ou'd think they invented medical transcription, and possibly even the English language.
Scroll pretty far down on the company board nm
may be on the next page by Saturday a.m.
I think I'm pretty bright and pretty good, too, but
I am not a CMT. I am a medical transcriptionist who enjoys her job very much (most days). I have chosen not to pursue certification simply because I cannot afford to do so. I believe the certification is a nice thing to have, but I don't believe it is necessary for employment or for excellence in my job. If you can afford it, go for it. If you can't, don't feel too bad. You can still take pride in and do a very good job without it.
Has anyone disconnected the internal sound card and replace with another sound card?

I am having problems with my sound on one of my computers.  Several different ExText program have been on it so I don't think it is the program and the sound is just now as clear as on my other computer.  Has anyone switched (disconnected the internal sound care and replaced) to a new sound card?  Did it make a difference. 


Everyone on this board is so knowledgeable, I really appreciate you.  You have helped me many times. 


You do sound FAT, but you don't sound RICh.
Go live in Iraq or something.
Hey, cool.

That's not cool, however,
we always leave one of us home to pass out candy.  I don't feel right taking my kids out to get candy from all the neighbors when I've closed my  house up and didn't pass any out to their kids. 
Cool, thanks!

Cool, I might do the same (sm)
It is something I love to do and never have time.  The animals at my house like to paint too.
Wow, that is cool!
I wish MY middle name was Lennon, LOL! Yeah, "imagine" what John would have to say about the current state of affairs - I have a feeling he would NOT think 2 kindly of Mr. Bush or the war - remember War Is Over (If U Want It) he and Yoko put on billboards all across the world to end the war in Vietnam? I don't think he'd be 2 popular with the Republicans, LOL!
Really COOL!

cool. thx.

WOW! That's cool!
I always wondered how that works, and how one winds up in Judge Judy's court room? Do they know beforehand or is it like a surprise when they show up at court??? :)
It WAS cool!! (sm)

He filed a claim in Small Claims Court in the state where he was living.  Apparently the staff of these shows watch the dockets and pick ones they think will make a good show because he got a call from Judge Joe Brown's staff who wanted him to be on that show and the next day got a call from Judge Judy's staff who wanted him to be on her show.  He chose Judge Judy because he would not have to travel as far to go to her show.  It was all very interesting.  He did not think so at the time he was going through it - it was very stressful for him - but in the end he was happy with the outcome and glad he did it. 


The point of it is that the show is "arbitration", it is not an actual court of law.  He had to sign papers saying that he accepted the "arbitration" and if he did not like the outcome he gave up his right to recourse in a court of law.  He chose that route because he felt that if he took it to court, though he probably would get a judgment against the defendant, he would still have to collect.  But with JJ, the show paid the judgment and he got a check for the whole amount, tax free, plus $500 for showing up on the show, within 7 to 10 days.


 


WOW! Now that's really really cool! lol
One more question, does the defendant then have to pay the court??? I just find this so interesting :)
Way cool, Boo. Way cool!

very cool - thanks ! nm

It's Cool.

Not the best, not the worst.  Very easy to set up and use.  You may need to fiddle with the settings for speeding up and slowing down dictation, but that's not hard to do.  I'm available if you need help!  I used it all through school and did just fine with it.


Good luck!


Too cool
I think I will really think about this before vacation this year. Kids watch DVD in vehicle anyway!

That is very cool! Thanks!

Ha, that's too cool-Think
I'll try it this summer some beach somewhere! LOL! Thanks so much for the info!
Cool!
Thanks MIMT for the info.  I will be working for a company that used to be called Michiana Transcribers, Inc. out of Osceola, Indiana.  They have merged with MD-IT.  My place of employment where I worked as the in-house supervisor for their transcription department terminated all four transcriptionists' positions, including mine, and are outsourcing to MD-IT (Michiana Transcribers, Inc.).  They have hired all of us to be at-home transcriptionists, transcribing for the same physicians/therapists we have all these years.  We are a little aprehensive to say the least.  Any information on this company would be greatly appreciated.
this is so cool..
thank you thank you thank you

I was looking at keyboards with touch pads, but wasn't too thrilled on the results.
how cool!
I'm running to Radio Shack tomorrow!  I cannot wait to hear what I have been missing.  Maybe they will give me a raise now for not sending to many QA submissions.  LOL!
too cool
thanks. you can never have enough websites
Cool!
Your information helps a lot.  Thank you!
Too cool!!!
That is so cool.  Thanks for sharing this.  I would never had known about this otherwise.

That's cool. Thanks.

Cool ...
I keep a silver vase with flowers in it (not expensive ones, buy a fresh cheapie bouquet each week at Wal-Mart). I have a favorite small gold lamp and a guilded box that I keep my stash of candy in, lol. I do have a telephone and desk calendar/appointment book. I use mainly electronic references so the few books I have are stored on a shelf below. Have a printer stored below and my CPU and Internet router. Really nice leather executive chair. My flat screen allows me quite a bit more room on the desktop.

Overall, very happy with my work space. And NOBODY touches it! LOL

I mean that's cool and all
but if you are going to spell out the drug, get it right! LOL
