In the faq they almost make you believe this stuff. Can't find much info on it online though. Anyone heard about this?

hmm, ok, this is my experience (and i can only speak for myself). looking for an application to run on crossover, a windows code emulator, i more or less bumped into one called brainwave generator. probably identical to the one linked to by alfons. i've had a lot of trouble sleeping the last few months (huge understatement) so i decided to give this a go, at the very least it would be an interesting experience. i chose this preset

slipped my headphones on and tucked myself into bed. the thing at full volume is a very pure ominous drone with waves of background noise, very sähkö label. it slows down progressively, eventually subsiding completely (i fell asleep before this). i turned down the volume, relaxed and set sail. the hypnotic effect was almost immediate (i've been susceptible to hypnotic states as of late so it could just be me). i don't know if through a side effect of focussing on the waves of background noise and the strange pulse or if i was just determined to sleep, whatever the reason i lost consciousness very quickly. i woke up feeling refreshed, a good eight hours of sleep that i had not had in ages. today i'm again completely awake at 5 am and my sleeping patterns are a mess, perhaps i should give it another go. i can't be bothered to try the other presets but if i do i'll report any success.

he he. Well obviously their not taking their "idoses" at the center (although some of them have the mp3s on their ipods). It's just been talked about a lot, with differing opinions about whether it actually works or not. Reminds me of when I was young and there were urban legends about snorting/smoking/chewing garden plants/household items to get high... Off course I give the kids the whole "drugs are bad mmmmkay..." discussion.

The internet has actually let me down on this one though, couldn't find any proper writing about this on wikipedia or anything, just people on msg boards arguing if it works or not.

actually crossover is the one to buy, it works like a charm. to be able to run windows apps without windows in os x is surreal.
