Upon its release, IBM 1401, A User's Manual received mostly positive reviews from music critics. Pitchfork's Mark Richardson gave it a 6.9, saying that the record 'begins beautifully' and has a 'powerful finish', 'but the long sag in the middle makes IBM 1401 – A User's Manual a bit harder to recommend overall.'[7]
Sal Cinquemani for Slant Magazine said that the album 'gives you the sense of hearing something truly ancient being married to something very modern and present, and, then, something very futuristic.'[8] Cinquemani praised the album's ambition and thematic work while noting that it was less musically varied. 'Some theorists claim humans can simulate anything with a computer, even a soul,' Cinquemani concluded, 'and with IBM 1401 - A User’s Manual, Jóhannsson comes chillingly close.'[8]
Track listing[edit]
All tracks are written by Jóhann Jóhannsson and Sigvaldi Kaldalóns.

And in almost every regard, the Rebel XS does just that. The ace up Canon’s sleeve in the case of the XS, though, is that this camera retains a surprising amount of the technology that made the XSi an Editor’s Choice pick around these parts. Traditionally, Canon has demoted its previous-generation Rebel into the entry-level spot with each new announcement. If you like what Canon’s doing at the entry level but have been turned off by the Rebel XSi’s upper-tier market position and street price, the new XS may just be the Rebel you’ve been waiting for.FEATURES OVERVIEWThe Rebel XS represents a shift in strategy for Canon; with the manufacturer bringing a second simultaneously developed and supported DSLR to the bottom-tier consumer market.
