its the sound system that really matters

Never mind the damn computer, it's the sound system that really matters. That plane could with with something really special. Kenwood 4 KW power amps. 64 12" woofers and 6 cubic-metre subs. 42 piezo midrange/tweeters. All power-mosfet amplification. Power derived direct from the engines with a turbine. Finally a 20 TB mp3 music store running mp3blaster on a Slackware box as the front end. Current music selection: Track 1: Led Zep - "Kashmir". Track 2: Captain Lockheed and the Starfighters: "Ejection". Track 3: Hawkwind: "Time we left this world today". etc...
