I was looking for something that was a bit more reasonably priced then the Alfa. Buying a wireless card that is more expensive then a motherboard-cpu combination, that then puts the antenna down behind the computer, an excellent source of interference makes me think there has to be a better way...

FULL STORY ON THE IPHONE The phone was dropped in street, in the pouring rain, at the SFO passenger loading area, as he dropped off a client. This was very early in the morning, it was dark, and the phone is black. He came back four hours later. The phone had been run over a number of times...

I've had really good luck with this: http://www.tp-link.com/en/products/details/?categoryid=240&model=TL-WN822N Bang for the buck wise. I don't think it would do the range you are after, but it was 25 bucks from newegg. I could be wrong...

Well, iphones are not waterproof. Roommate dropped his into a puddle during the rain, and, fried phone. He now has a new, but older model iphone. It's much lighter, and thinner then the new one. All I did was enter the code for the WIFI, and, the virtual keyboard was really hard to do with big...

My gf has an ipad, first generation. Worked with it a bit. No desire to own one. Likewise the Samsung's from T-Mobile.

Merc: I argue with myself to go with your total skeptic outlook, or to go with my own, WAY worse outlook.;_)

I'm 44, and I think I have Bill to thank for that.

Well, what can I say? "I told you so!" does come to mind. ;-) Or how about, "Nothings changed." I am wondering how you find the EVO's.

OK: I'm running mine from the cmd line install, and never got that far.

The advice I was given is either use the SMP mode, or the GPU, but, the SMP is faster, and, when running it, you can't use the GPU mode.

This world gets stranger. E4HD is showing Charlies' Angels, the new version. Just watched S1 #8 and it was stunning in quality, and the show wasn't terrible either.;-)

This website is my bible for weather in the bay area: http://sfports.wr.usgs.gov/wind/streaklines.shtml If the wind is offshore, surf is good, weather is cold to freezing. If the wind is from the south, it usually means warmer air, and a weather front is about to come in, bringing rain...

I enjoy hearing about what everyone deals with. We all have been together a LONG time, and been through a bunch of stuff. Some of us have helped others out in hard times. Ton of wisdom here, and I'm not used to such a cold year, and, as I get older, I'm trying to learn ways of dealing with it...

I'm really getting addicted to this buckling spring spacesaver Unicomp. VERY COOL.

Thermostat works. It's a very big radiator, for a very small engine. Also, it's just not tuned very high, and doesn't create that much heat, a good thing for engine longevity. The Anti-freeze solution is working. It heats up faster, and won't freeze.

31 @ 3 am, again. It's really getting old.

WHY? I was under the impression that running a video card at a high percentage is more likely to have it go south then the cpu? I'm getting good speed running the multiple CPU setup, and, if you are doing that, doesn't it preclude doing folding on the gpu? How about this for a f@H unit...

Mine is averaging two days with the new battery, easy.

WhY? It's 28 at 6 am. woke up after going to bed early at 3 am. Roomie emailed me his best friend has an apartment, and he's moving out. Not here. Watching Sherlock 3 season 2.

28 4:21.

Appears what I have is about as good as it gets. Same as the IBM Model M's. Some of these were made in 1985 and still going? WTF?:-0 One of those areas where throwing more money at it doesn't make it better.

I just spent sometime cruizing some keyboard forums. Seems the buckling spring is the Holy Grail to a lot of people who have tried a lot of different switch types. Even though some keyboards are way more expensive, the buckling springs seem to have the most loyal following, and the least bad...

It's 29 right now, at 3 am, and dropping. Yes, the weather is a hassle. A lot of the sports I do are outside. Some function even in snow, Lacrosse in particular. Surfing is almost always good due to offshore winds. Here, that means they are coming from Nevada/Sierras, and, about 99% of the time...

REALLY cold. 36 at 7PM. That means maybe, low 20'S?

5:30 am. 26.4 defreezes:-( Black ice warning was posted, and I have to drive to San Jose, ASAP. David's area should be in the low 20's as well. Felt REALLY cold this morning, and I thought I had the heat on, but, the partial setting for the HHS didn't work. Time to go.

Been a long day. Slaving away watching girls play volleyball, and ref the games. Started at 5 am, wore my heated vest, and even changing was toasty. Got done at 11 PM, and home at 12. It's 35 right now, forecast to be 27 this morning. I'll be up at 5AM, and let you know. It's going for 21...

CAT. No, but I spend a lot of time on speaker phone, and it is noticeable.

I have no idea what that's like. It's kind of tropical right now. Went from 31 up to 41. Wet cold here, but, it's still a long way from -25. Are you part polar bear?;-)

Getting used to the Unicomp. I hate to say it, but going back to the cheap, Kensington 120 feels horrible. I hate it. I didn't realize how comfortable, despite the noise, the buckling spring keyboard makes me feel. Spent a LOT of time typing on this type of board. Anyone have suggestions for...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walnut_Creek,_California Guess -8 is as cold as it's ever been. Yesterday morning I drove to San Jose. Felt fine, thanks to 4 layers and a big down jacket. Felt fine until I started to change in the parking lot. In 5 minutes my hand and arms were close to numb, and...

60 here. This morning it's 31.5. So I'm dressing antarctic. Going to work. Later

My phone is not a very good phone. The Wifi calling is ok, but the input microphone doesn't work well in speaker phone mode, something I use a lot. My Bluetooth headset is great for music, but when people call, it works sometimes, usually not using WIFI calling. You really need to watch...

Now 31, and appears dropping lower. Going back to bed with the cat.

fb: what does this say? http://www.yr.no/nyheter/1.7952509 That wave looks like the Wedge in Newport Beach: http://www.surfline.com/surf-report/the-wedge-southern-california_4232/

Today, at 4 am, a tropical 32 degrees. My feet have been cold all day...

Compared the 2600 to 920 for folding @ Home? My 940 is running 100% as I type this. Power consumption is also an issue, since my electric bill went from 48 a month to 120 this month. It's been really cold, at least for me in Kali.

The Firm looks promising. Enjoying Revenge as well. NCIS and NCIS faithful as well. Merlin just ended for the year. Leverage is OK..

DOLPHIN TALE: INCREDIBLE. Keep in mind I like most animals more then my brother. I cried most of the movie. GREAT movie, even for kids.

It's now f....g 30. It's not supposed to be this cold this long. F.... Al Gore

Didn't see the rebate part. Don't trust any of that stuff. Anyone compared the 2600 vs. the 920, speed wise?

Jason Stratham, Clive Owen, and Robert DeNiro: Killer Elite. Excellent plot. Even Hollywood couldn't screw this true story up. SAS in the Oman war, and what they did. Based on a book that can be neither confirmed or denied. In other words, the guy was there, wrote a book, and the SAS are still...

It finally ran down. So, two days charge, with my useage. It does take a long time to recharge, like 20% per hour.

I didn't buy the stupid phone to have to worry about it's battery life. I don't want to bother with conserving a battery. Now I don't have to. My phone is pretty much stripped down right now, as much as can, app wise. It looks like this battery will last two days, instead of 5-6 hours for the OEM.

Apparently that isn't the case with this battery. Perhaps that maybe why the batteries appear not to last as long as they should?

The water isn't exactly vistor friendly, unless your a walrus or killer whale. Incredible story Lynne Cox. Lucky she didn't die: http://www.cbsnews.com/2100-3475_162-540357.html?tag=contentMain;contentBody

I am REALLY impressed with the battery. http://www.mugen-power-batteries.com/t-mobile/t-mobile-htc-mytouch-4g-slide/mugen-power-3600mah-extended-battery-for-t-mobile-htc-mytouch-4g-slide-with-battery-door.html This thing is a beast. I charged the new battery, started using the phone yesterday...

This is REALLY frigging cold, even if it's dry: The coldest temperature on record for the South Pole site is -117.0°F (-82.8°C) set on June 23, 1982. The pole is one of the driest places on earth with an estimated total annual precipitation of just .20” (4.5mm) although blowing snow contributes...

It's going for 31 tonight. Currently a moist 36.

I'm at 2.3.4 and that's supposed to be current, at least for my phone.
