- Massive Attack
"Black Milk" knocks me off my feet in this collection of moody and eclectic songs. Massive Attack uses samples and keyboards in a very unique way, but not all the songs pack the same punch.
- Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
When I first got hooked to Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, the only place I could get their debut album, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, was through the band's Web site. I listened to the two tracks a
- Beck
Beck is the modern master of the groove, and Guero is merely the latest example of this. From the opening power chords of "E-Pro," to the Pac-Man cuteness of "Girl," to the dirge-like lullab
- Chicago
For those of you who don't know, Chicago didn't always suck, and everyone in the band didn't always play a keyboard. When the band started off they were pioneers of rock and jazz fusion, and guita

ETCHamac Introduces iPod and Powerbook Etching Service
Tuesday, July 12th, 2005 at 3:00 PM - by John F. Braun
BOSTON -- Roaming the Macworld show floor always reveals a few surprises, and this show is no different. While roaming past the ETCHamac booth, we couldn't help but notice the very cool looking array of iPods and PowerBooks with what we assumed were stick-on labels with various logos. Upon closer inspection, however, we learned that the designs were actually etched onto the respective devices by a CO2 laser.

Etched iPod
Not to worry, the laser is low power and will not damage your device. You can either submit your own artwork, or have the folks at ETCHamac work with you to design the perfect image to put on your device. The pricing of the service ranges from $20 to $40 for an iPod, and from $35 to $200 for a PowerBook, depending on the image type and size.
Based on the traffic to the company's booth, ETCHamac's first trip to Macworld, the service will be a hit with iPod users.
