Was demoed at some club in Netherlands shown on their web site. I've got
BeOS on my computer, and have two turntables, but, the whole setup is $200.
I saw this mentioned some time last year when one of the early version of
BeOS was out, so it looks like they've followed through. It would be cool
to use some of those MP3s I've been downloading. You could also make MP3s
of tapes/CDs so you could scratch the samples.
