What do you guys think of this corsair 8GB Flash Voyager GT drive? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820233054 I'm wanting to get a bigger drive (I have 256MB now) and I think 8GB is about right. The newegg reviewers all seem to think it is fast but don't like the case. I...

Does paint.net do this?

For the record, the problem I had resolved itself after rebooting. But the whole machine, not just restarting opera. I'm still not sure I want to continue to use Opera as my main browser. I really like a lot of things about opera. And it looks like they are moving in the right direction. But...

I understand the requirement for the internal supply. It would be convenient. I have one with an internal one. But it adds considerable heat.

solar power?

Opera has really failed me for the first time today. My bookmarks aren't displaying correctly. The folders are there but not the bookmarks not in any folders. And then later not even all the folders are showing. The appear if I do manage bookmarks. And my middle click just stops working...

The passcode is apparently May I Please Get The Glass?

ARGH what is the pass phrase at the end? It is a question. Three letters followed by a single letter then 6 letters then 3 then 3 then 5. This was my guess You get three, I lost. Did A Adachi --- - ------ Get The Glass? --- --- -----?

The fuji F32fd camera looks great. Personally I only have two problems with it. 1. still xD. Well I guess I could deal with that. 2. only 3x optical zoom. I guess I really am asking a lot when I want 10x. Still I'm thinking this is my next camera. And my birthday is in June. I don't think...

In my priority list every work problem is less important than anything personal. So I'd say run the marathon. Your weekends are yours. Is it really that important this gets done on _that_ weekend? What are the consequences for pushing it out a week? Will it make your boss look bad and he...

So what I'm hearing is the future looks bleak even if I get a fancy new tv. So how do I fix my current tv's magnet type color spots?

yes, drexel hill.

From windows or unix? Because if it was unix I think I would do something like for i in 1 to 255 do ping 192.168.0.$i | grep '.com' done But do you really want the ping result or just and ip to name lookup? Is that nslookup?

I thought we could discuss the future of cable TV in this thread. So merc says here that his cable company, Comcast, is getting rid of non-digital cable in the Chicago area. Chicago is probably a test run for the rest of the US. I had not considered that cable companies would be doing away...

I have RCN in PA with no converter box. Only my beloved dual tuner tivo. Maybe we should start another thread to discuss cable and our future options. I have some questions which I'll post in the new thread.

I'm not that great of a word power user. Sure I know the vba model but I don't actually produce very many documents in word. For word help I was a Microsoft MVP though. And they have a website with lots of information about word. http://word.mvps.org/

Sounds like a perfect scenario for that software I helped write and am on the patent for. Essentially it allows collaborative editing of a word document. It allows you to section the word document up and let other people edit or suggest alternative versions. Maybe you want to try it out...

I got my box of crap today. Here are the pictures of the contents of my box of crap. http://willrickards.net/images/woot_box_of_crap/ We have 1. Targus Accessory Pouch Kind of like a modern shaving travel kit but for mice and stuff. 2. Thermos Insulated Pub Glass Too bad I don't drink...

Why aren't you just sending a link? Anyway there are a couple extensions to firefox that will let you save the whole webpage. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2925 https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/212

It has it's own website. (www.2061Webster.com) I took the virtual toor. Nice house but not worth more than 1.5 million around here I'd say.

I have no idea if I got a good deal. Because we bought a house we shouldn't have and put way too much money in it already. I have countrywide 30 yr fixed and a heloc with greenpoint. Neither of which I'll recommend. Not that there is anything wrong with either. We know a mortgage broker that I...

Not ebay, newegg about 2 years ago. It was probably on sale. I think I'm just going to replace it, I don't like that kind of heat.

I've got a Zonet 4 port powered usb hub. And this thing is HOT as in possibly burning when I connect the AC Adaptor. Are they all like this?

I'll have to look into that enclosure as this one's fan is way too loud. How noisy are those? Near silent? There seems to be so much air space around the drive in mine I don't even know why they need a fan?

So while USB 2 might be able to do 480Mb/s 60MB/s via the spec and in real life maybe 55 MB/s, the parallel ATA to USB 2 bridge chip is only letting 24MB/s through? Or is USB 2 not even capable of reaching 55MB/s? Seems via this wikipedia link most usb 2 devices only are capable of half the...

It is a maxtor 120GB DiamondMax Plus 9 120GB Storage Review Link

What transfer rates should I expect for a hard drive in an external enclosure hooked up via USB 2? I'm getting something like 24MB/s and wondering if that is good or slow or what. Here are some hdtach screenshots Quick Test Long Test

Well I don't think the lockup was due to temps anymore. As it happened without F@H running and the temps weren't above 40C when rebooted. But now I have to figure out what it is. Oh Joy.

Would this work? Backup just the partition with trueimage or ghost or something. Then zero wipe the drive, create the partitions, and restore your partition.

I got a Random Crap.... with 3 craps in it. Woooooot! I wonder what they send you. Maybe lint from the warehouse floor or something. Maybe those leakfrogs. I'll let you guys know either way.

Why'd you buy it from newegg? Was there a discount or something? I always buy it direct from eset.

I was considering those headphones too but they are 3.5mm instead of 2.5mm needed for my cell phone. Lately I'm looking for phones that plug into my cell phone as it is a windows media audio (WMA) player. I love my roomba which I bought from woot. I'm tempted to buy another one just to keep...

I also know not of this NOD32 CD you speak of. It is therefore a myth.

7 grand for a case? holy poop. They did look sweet though.

The address bar corresponds to a specific tab. When you replace it, you are changing that tabs address. If you want a new tab you have to open one first and then change the address. It is different from FF because the address bar is below the tabs. I've been using Opera as my main browser for...

SOLD... err well given away that is.

So far my core temp is hovering around 60C under full load for 20 minutes now.

Yeah 12V 12AH is what I ordered and eventually got. That is the RBC4 that my ups uses. This one is smaller and fewer amp hours.

Which temp is that? Core or the motherboard temp sensor? Speedfan gives me two temps one for the core and one for the motherboard sensor.

I figured out that different dns servers were the culprit and changed mine so I could get here. See it worked fine from home this morning but not when I got into work.

Anybody need a UPS battery 12V 7.2AH? I ordered an APC replacement RBC4 and they sent me an RBC2 I think. They don't want it back and I don't want it in my house. This is the item I received that you would be getting: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=170090674948 It is...

Yeah mine has been running fine for months with two instances on an X2 3800 with the OEM heatsink and stock fan. But the computer never locked up before and there were no real software changes. Maybe the high temps were a red herring, I'll have to do some testing and temp monitoring. The only...

It was definitely a dns not spyware problem. I did a full scan of the system, check the host file, etc. I informed our IT person and I think she updated the dns cache on the gateway because it now resolves to the correct address. Or the automatic syncing of dns servers did it.

I think this is just a bad cached copy in my company's local dns servers. The question is, where did the bad cached copy come from?

When good I get 69.57.180.83 as the IP. When bad I get 66.45.244.194 as the IP. A dnsstuff.com domain report lists www.storageforum.net as 69.57.180.83.

I have to stop folding for a while. I think my PC is overheating. It locked up yesterday and when I started it back up the core temp was high according to speedfan. Once I turned off folding it went down to normal levels. Guess I have to remount the cpu cooler or get another better one. I...

And yes it goes back to bad once I switch my dns servers to automatic. Yes I'm issueing a ipconfig /flushdns after resetting them.

Here are the pics of the good and bad pages http://willrickards.net/images/2007-03-12/

I just switched my domain servers to opendns and the problem goes away. The funny thing is it didn't do it if I used just storageforum.net. But any request to www.storageforum.net caused it. I'll post a screenshot.
