  How do I become an audiophile?

  What they all said, except I’d skip the speaker cables and just buy a decent amp and speakers. In my opinion, the fewer knobs there are on an amplifier, the better. Avoid amplifiers with graphic equalisers, as a graphic equaliser is really just a set of filters; i.e. they detract from sound quality by definition.

  A fair question to ask Obama?

  @oratio: that’s a loaded question. Moreover, China arguably dismissed he apology because it didn’t come from the head of state. When the “dead soldiers” include war criminals, there is, and always will be, a destructive element to honouring them.

  A fair question to ask Obama?

  @oratio : but it didn’t come from the Japanese head of state – the emperor; it came from the then prime minister, who also made a point of visiting the Yasukuni shrine every year.

  A fair question to ask Obama?

  Was it a fair question? Yes. Was it a constructive question? No. Obama could easily have asked the questioner if the Japanese head of state felt the Chinese and the Koreans deserved an apology, or whether the well-documented war crimes committed by the Japanese were the result of a good decision, but he had the savvy not to. Fundamentally, the question was, in my opinion, valid, but naive (unless, of course, the questioner just wanted to see how good at dancing Obama is). edit Just for clarity – I’m not being anti-Japanese here; my wife is Japanese, I’ve spent five years of my life there, and am returning within the year.

  Why won't 18 Wheels of Steel Haulin' run on my computer?

  @ragingloli – yup. @mathwhiz1 – sounds like your new computer is using onboard graphics, but you’d need to tell us what computer/its specs before we could advise you at all.
