Another Roadblock in Dual-Booting Mac OS X & Vista
Another Roadblock in Dual-Booting Mac OS X & Vista:
Filed under: Analysis / Opinion, Mac mini, Macbook Pro
Thosehoping to be able to dual-boot the Intel Macs once Microsoft ships Vista (late this year?) may have to wait a bit
longer. Today, Dan Warne of APC Magazine
reported that Microsoft has announced that the first version of Vista will not have support for computers that use
EFI firmware and that Microsoft may include
EFI support at a later date for Vista.
Why on earth would Microsoft do this? I suppose it could be for
technical reasons that we’re not aware of, but I don’t see why Microsoft couldn’t just ship Vista without BIOS support
instead, and anyone who wanted to upgrade to Vista would just have to buy a new PC, which is what most people will be
doing anyway. Why willingly block machines with EFI to run Vista? But I suppose it might be that Microsoft is
afraid to let users see Mac OS X and Vista side-by-side on the same computer.
It’s quite clear EFI is the
future and BIOS is the past. Apple is embracing one while Microsoft seems chained to the other.

Basic Ambisonic
After all the really sinmple matlab coding for Z-rotation, tilt, tumble and rotate-tilt i’ve finally managed to output the soundfile. All that remains is testing the output file in CHESS Systems.
I’ve also managed to convert Ambisonics to Stero (2.0 output) using the following equations in matlab,
Left = (0.0928 + 0.255j)X + (0.4699 – 0.171j)W + (0.3277)Y
Right= (0.0928 – 0.255j)X + (0.4699 + 0.171j)W – (0.3277)Y
For now i guess before testing the output files on the CHESS System, i’ll be trying the mono to Ambosonic conversions. I’m Hoping it wont be too complicated. Will keep this as next priority
Jen and Me
