Mmm, I have not my dictionary here, but i can suppose laptop is a portable
pc. Yes, truely, I think if i will go on this way i will buy a portable 
mac.
I saw a show from a japanese. With very few absurd instuments, a mic, and a
portable pc he did incredible things in real time...
But now the problem is money. I'm poor boys. Youg, without work, not sure
about what to do of myself (neither if to do something or not), and
definitively poor. I wanted something to start looping and create a new
language, new for me, of course, i don't know them but i am sure a lot of
people do theatre or quite theatre performance with looping voice and 
noises
on wich to act... But I need to try by myself...
Anyway, lasta night, hey, i was  up all the night to search in your site (i
slept in the morning) and i remember something about repeater. It was not
unavailable anymore?
