(but I recpaced the HD recently and it's less of a problem) Less of a problem, but it didn't go away? The SBBOD is the machine with a blue face gasping for air. When you start a process, MacOS allocates an expected time to completion. If the process goes over that in an unexpected way, you get the ...

If you have a good, stand-alone turntable, your best bet is probably a USB Phono Preamp such as the Arts unit. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/USBPhonoPPS/ Also for less bux, Behringer makes the UFO-202 Photo Preamp that is not adjustable. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/UFO202 That's ...
