Why?
Why aren't there any decent audio libraries for .NET? Don't get me wrong, it's nice that the framework supports some audio features in a very simple way if you want to just play something. However, if you need access to the audio data to manipulate

Yet another "user group" in Dallas/Fort Worth - Announcing "dnux"!

Technology Avalanche
I have to admit that lately I've been feeling a little overwhelmed by the amount of new technology that I need to grok in order to stay ahead of the curve. In a relatively short window of time, we've had Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF),

Adventures in Windows Vista (x64) - Part 3
I've been running Vista x64 for about a month now. So far it's been a pretty painless experience. Here are a few updates: Software Compatibility I continue to be amazed by the amount of software that continues to be compatible with x64. Counter Strike

All I can say is "Huh?"
