A Good Place To Start →
Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 greatest albums of all time is a good place to start if you’re looking to expand your music history horizons.

Fork You, Apple!
I almost never use the disk drive on my MacBook Pro, so it was a bit surprising this weekend when I was using it to import some music CDs that it wouldn’t eject them right away, only after a few tries.
