OT!! Interesting video for those complaining about DAW capabilities

I just happened across this video which is a commentary by Brian May during remastering of "Bohemian Rhapsody." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z85YsUAU6pA  It is very interesting listening to his comments about "how it was," and the immense limitations that DAW users are not hobbled by today...
 
I guess it just puts things in perspective for me when I hear people who default to whining and complaining...

ASUS ROG Maximus X Hero (Wi-Fi AC), i7-8700k, 16GB RAM, GTX-1070Ti, Win 10 Pro, Saffire PRO 24 DSP, A-300 PRO, plus numerous gadgets and gizmos that make or manipulate sound in some way.

    Studio owner to tape deck manufacturer: "I want rewind to position exactly on the beat, why don't you do that? Studer, Ampex and Tascam do."
     
    Tape deck manufacturer: "We know about that bug and we'll be (hopefully) implementing that in the next version of the deck."
     
    Studio owner to tape deck manufacturer: "I'll get that upgrade for free, correct?"
     
    Tape deck manufacturer: "No but the upgrade fee will only be $16,000.00..........(long silence)"
     
    Studio owner to tape deck manufacturer: "I'm outta here...."

    Yes, when I hear some complaints these days I feel like handing them a razorblade and splice block.  Or a polaroid of a minimoog and say program that, sucker.  Now that I'm older I can barely make out the knobs, much less the pointer.

    there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.
    24 And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.
