I think the plastic cones are a cost-cutting modern thing but they're cool and rigid. Paper cones are the most popular but they're a bitch to put new surrounds on since the old glue usually peels some of the paper off or leaves a residue. It doesn't come off clean.

Yea, on my barn speakers, the woofer has no crossover circuitry. You can look up a generic crossover or I can give you the plans for my JBL L19A which are 2-way so the crossover would be more of a generic one that would cut most of the highs out of the woofer. You can replace the dials with straight resistors once you find a balance you like you can just measure the resistance and find one that works for you. Some people do that on more expensive speakers too.

WOW!!!! I picked up some older KLH speakers the other day for $10 and I thought it was soooo strange to see a transparent plastic woofer cone but yours have it too. It's extremely interesting that it's cheaper than a paper cone or something you know. Those look to be fairly thick cabinets and they're 3-way so if nothing else, you have a nice base for some custom ones should those ever fail to the point you don't want to put money into them.

Any idea on the kind of crossover inside?

I guess if the layout/UI had a specific purpose which was different than the existing layout, like either a minimal or quick view kinda thing, I would be ok with a side project spawning off. I've got the room to host it for sure.

So it would be a separate website that uses PostQuote's database and info? More or less a program that reads the information from the site? I could be down for that. Maybe something small that would be optimized for phones or tablets? Something that's extremely minimal and easy to use?

Oh, I see what you mean. I'm all for using cool features for PostQuote but they have to be practical. Aside from minor bandwidth and loading times of 1-page Javascript website, it doesn't seem worth the time it would take to learn and re-code things. I don't think anyone else would be interested in really getting involved with PostQuote but I could be wrong.

Honestly, the problem I have with other people working intimately with PostQuote and it happened with you Jared is that I'm picky. I know how my code works, exactly. I know how to fix things or adjust things. It's nothing wrong with you or your abilities, when you coded that theme and did a lot of back end stuff, I had no clue how it worked and I hate to keep pestering you when I want something minor changed you know? I certainly still use a lot of your code and design, I just had to learn how it worked. I don't mind others including yourself working on PostQuote, I just need to know how your code works, otherwise it's pretty useless to me since the site evolves so fast with user input and the features I add.

I guess I still don't understand the concept of an "app". On Chrome, they're just bookmarks. On ChromeOS, they're just bookmarks. Did Google screw up the concept of them or is that all they are? How would it be different/better than the PHP/HTML site I have now?

what about if we did a open source version of postquote and turned it into a javascript app, if nate would let us, and would be whiling to do it.

What would the purpose be?

I was going to reply but didn't think I had much to say. I haven't worked on PostQuote in over a month and a half. I do have a list of things to do and have though of a few features to implement lately so I might start up again. I've been more involved with work outside & my motorcycle than stuff on the computer. That will change now that winter is coming. It's the natrual cycle of my habits, I never did like to work on mAAp during the summer.

Well, of course new aftermarket performance parts cost more than working used OEM junkyard pulls :)

The radiator is like 6 bolts and 60$ for a new one.

Are you for real? That's nuts! Plus 1 for a small engine I guess, I think it's around $300 for a new one for our Suburban, $150 for a pressure-tested used one from a junkyard.

Well having radiator problems just drops value. It's usually straightforward to replace them with a junkyard one plus you get epic $$ for the aluminum recycling of the old one. There's always Bar's Stop Leak too.

Another feature I like is that there is a simplistic Malware scanning program upon startup, there's an option to disable it when you press F8 for boot options. Most of the added features and improvements are behind the scenes and everybody is complaining that it looks the same. If only you people had to live through Windows 95, 98 and 2000. You would be bored shitless.

Keep in mind that it's still a year or two from being done. They just worked on a few features, mainly Metro UI. Things will change but this release was mostly intended for developers to build their applications to work with Metro UI so that when the beta and release come around, programs and Windows will merge more seamlessly.
