Sorry, I don't know either of those pieces. I have always disliked Bartok's music since the early fifties when my piano teacher made me play his dissonant stuff instead of Bach's harmonic stuff; thus I never progressed past my third year of first year piano.
I just finished entering the Adagio to Beethoven's Sonata in C-sharp Minor, OP. 27, No. 2. (also know as the Moonlight Sonata) into my PC in Commodore 64 mode and it sounds quite good. I'm not sure if I will enter the remaining eleven pages of the score or not.
Vivaldi's ' Four Seasons' (OP. 8, Concerti Nos 1-4) or JS Bach's Brandenburg Concerti Nos 1-6?

OHHHH I wish I had gotten Grondy's question instead. I LOVE the Brandenburg Concertos, all of them. Hey Grondy I see you're a Bach lover too. Oh and I'm LMAO, you did it in Commodore 64 mode!!! I remember those mid-80's commercials where the C-64 was playing Bach's Inventio #13. Not only did that prompt me to get a C-64, it also first introduced me to Bach's music. As a teenager I eventually learned how to play Inv#13 on a synthesizer.
Well back to Mellon's question -- Disco. I guess. Lesser of two evils.
The Beatles, or the Rolling Stones?

Public School or Private School?
Public School or Private School?
Well I went to public school, but I've always felt that private schools are better overall. If I had the money, my son would definitely be in a private school.

Digital or Analog Watches? Or do you even wear a watch?
Digital or Analog Watches? Or do you even wear a watch?
Well I've got an analog watch with a broken spring that I really ought to have repaired; and another selfwinding one that runs down if I sleep more than nine hours, and another that uses a battery which has run dry. However, my favorite is both an electric digital and an analog. I like analog for accurate estimates of the time with just a glance and digital for the actual time of day.
I'll have to come back to this for I've forgotten the topic.
Oh yeah, 'Salt and pepper' or 'Sugar and spice'?

Hey Loss, no fair, I just asked that same question 3 days ago LOL!!!!!
Grondy- How 'bout garlic & basil instead? Mmmmmm yummy Italian Tomato Salad!!
DSL, or Cable-modem?
Grondy- How 'bout garlic & basil instead? Mmmmmm yummy Italian Tomato Salad!!
DSL, or Cable-modem?
Cable-modem, then I don't need two land lines; I still don't need a cell phone and I have a back-up rotary phone for when the power goes out and causing my portable phone to go dead. I also won't get my phone service via cable and computer for the same reason.

Strawberry rhubarb.
From what my soon-to-be father-in-law tells me, Verizon has apparently discontinued support for rotary & pulse dialing around here. Now it's "touch-tone, or no-phone". He FINALLY got rid of his old "backup" rotary phone this past year.
With fresh berries: Whipped cream? Or sour cream & sugar?

Whipped cream. I've never tried the other, but it sounds good too.

Bacon and Eggs or Liver and Onions (not really a choice as far as I'm concerned.)
Bacon and Eggs or Liver and Onions (not really a choice as far as I'm concerned.)
Oooooooooh actually that IS a tough choice, if the liver is prepared right (especially breaded) and if it's NOT overcooked so that it comes out like leather. But alas, I guess I would still go for bacon & eggs after all, especially if there's toast & home fries along with it. Now if only we could swap that bacon for some nice fresh corn beef hash MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Hey Sian, try it (sugar & sour cream) with either blueberries or strawberries. Maybe you can settle a long-standing debate between me and my fianc’e.
Cash or credit card?

Cash or credit card?
Credit Card, if payed in full at the end of the month. I think I've paid $1.35 in interest in the last twenty-five years: I lost the envelope one month way back when. I figure seeing as how the bank pays me less than 1% on my savings account, why should I pay them 15% to borrow my own money? So when I don't have enough in my checking account to cover the credit card bill, I draw it out of savings and save a bundle in interest. Of course if you have no liquid assets, you should never buy on credit except on a low fixed rate morgage where your monthly income and expences have been truly stated so you don't get in over your head.
Sports Car or Pick-up Truck?
Sports Car or Pick-up Truck?
Pickup truck. I like my vehicles big, I've been driving a Durango for 7 years now. No way could I make the adjustment back to a tiny little regular car. Hey I like your way of managing credit cards, I'm the same way. I rarely use cash for anything, because then I can never remember what I spent it on. At least with the charge cards I have a nice itemized statement every month, and some of them give me a year-end summary too. Oh yeah and then there's the Cash-Back rewards too.

Mild Cheddar Cheese or Sharp Cheddar Cheese?
Mild Cheddar Cheese or Sharp Cheddar Cheese?
Well I use both, it depends on what I'm using it for. But I guess if it's a plain old block of cheese and I'm just going to cut off a chunk to nibble on, then I would pick SHARP.

I let it take it's course, but it rains so much here it never needs watering anyways

sports or computer games?
I don't mind watching sports, but no longer play them myself. I do play computer games. My character is currently on the Isle of the Maker in 'Hoards of the Underdark' on my PC; and another is about to enter the Dwarven Village of Turef in 'Death Knights of Krynn' on my 1985 Commodore 128/64.

Flowers? Or "regular" green plants?
Flowers, though at the moment my indoor two African violets and Christmas Amaryllis are just green. From my window I see a lot of green junipers and Rhodys, as well as cedar, fir, and maple trees. Oh, I think I see the blackberries are in bloom on the far bank.
