Ok, there's even more clueless than our users. As far as stupidity goes, this wins it all.

First time I notice that. Happy birthday JTR. Beware those potholes and don't ride in the snow!

30% of the RAM bandwidth doesn't translate into 30% of the overall performance of the system. It might be 3-4% slower all in all.

Now that's an awesome deal! I did not believe such a laptop would be available for less than a thousand bucks this year. Good find.

I'm glad to see that he log in earlier today. He must be ok.

And now the soon-to-be-released E5-46xx v2, even if it's not a thread about those : Xeon processor (12-core) E5-4657Lv2 2.40GHz Turbo 30M NoGfx LGA2011 4407 $ Xeon processor (10-core) E5-4650v2 2.40GHz Turbo 25M NoGfx LGA2011 3626 $ Xeon processor (10-core) E5-4640v2 2.20GHz Turbo 20M...

Just to check how far I am from the real MSRP when the chips will launch, I'll post what I think will be the selling prices in 1000 quantity of the upcoming E7 v2 : Xeon processor (15-core) E7-4890v2 2.80GHz Turbo 37.5M NoGfx FCLGA12 6619 $ Xeon processor (15-core) E7-4880v2 2.50GHz Turbo...

So basicly, they told you that you are brain-dead?

Too vague a question. It always depends on what you are looking for.

I revisited the numbers and I think I was a bit off. When I compare the prices on the list I've found with Intel's MSRP, the MSRP are 89.17% of the list'S prices. So that 7423$ should be closer to 6620$. That's still a lot of doh, but if I had to purchase a few, I'd be happy to pay 780$ less...

According to a merchant spreedsheet I've found on the Net, the upcoming E7-4890v2 will cost approximately 7400$. That's quite a jump from the 4400$ Intel asks for the current top dog of the E7 family : the Xeon E7-4870. Since it will operate at a 400MHz higher frequency and have 15 cores...

I've used CD Burner XP Pro for a number of years, but I mostly use it to burn installation iso images. I don't know how good or bad it is to copy copyrighted material, except for making a copy of an MS OS installation disc (it does that without problem).

I have no way to connect to those systems from work, nor do I want to. When I'm at work, I work. I'm not paid to configure my home computers at work. When I came back this evening, I restarted one system, delete the CPU slot and recreated it on the other and all of my systems are again fully...

WTF? My CPU clients are all stopped and waiting for a new assignment. I don't have time for this as I'm late for work. F*ck!

Search Google for "keyfinder". Install it and check your installation key on every system you have.

Doesn't India have something like 28 states, plus another 7 territories, despite being much, much smaller than the U.S? Of course, you have four times as many people, but you probably don't have much more than one third the territory.

Have they released a patch for this hole yet?

It's a cuddly toy.

The shower is too close to the dung container. You also need to make that a two-stories project. You need a basement for the bench, the weights, a cardio gear of your liking and of course, a home entertainment system.

Congratulations for your new coffee table.

You could remodel the downspout in zig-zag, so that no matter the amount of water doing down the drain, it would fall from a significant height and it wouldn't make a lot of noise. ...or you could just send back the mother-in-law to Russia et voilà! Problem solved. Beside, she teach your...

I don't know what dual or quad core I'll end up buying because I don't know when I'll have the funds to buy it. I find that GPU folding produces too much heat overall, which is particularly annoying in summer. While the hardware vs ppd production ratio is better with graphic cards, the wattage...

For the few of us who aren't near-sighted, XGA seems quite limitative.

I saw it too. I'm now barely above you. I sure won't be able to compete with you if you add another card. I don't plan to upgrade my rig before at least Spring, if not Fall 2014. I don't want to add other cards as I find they produce too much heat. I'll probably get rid of two or thrree...

Some people on this world have no common sense : http://sploid.gizmodo.com/terrifying-van-ride-up-the-himalayas-would-scare-the-li-1467132970/@caseychan?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+gizmodo%2Ffull+%28Gizmodo%29 Who TF would design a road like that? And who's crazy...

Bozo maybe, but from what I remember, the only way LiamC will ever rejoin the team is if gets divorced.

We receive both Windows 7 and Windows 8 media with the new HP business laptops we buy on a weekly basis. Like Tony wrote, as long as you have the microcode in the motherboard's firmware, you're ok.

This is also very reassuring. Oh well, if it wasn't be vBulletin, it would be some other forum software that would be hacked. None is immune, apparently.

Pretty much every sales persons I've met in my professional life distributed business cards like candies on Haloween.

One of Handruin's co-workers who's generously helping our team and the FAH project.

Not a restore point, but I often make an image of my installations once I'm satisfied with their state. I've almost never had to use them, but I know the're there if needed. If your PC is 5 years old or more, unless you really can't afford it, replace it entirely. Unless you don't value your...

It's nice to meet your daughter. She seems quite awake and healthy.

I've finally configured my GTX 580 to run the client on the system I've converted from Windows to Linux two weeks ago. That should bring back my production to the level it was in October, when everything ran fine. It's great to see perform as well as it does now. With the additions of Timwhit...

Good thing. Otherwise, you might forget where it is and be unable to find it again. Regarding the RAM, try the same brand and model as the other 2x2GB sticks already in, if it's still available.

An advertisement in Spiceworks.

I didn't know that. Thanks.

I fixed the issue. I've installed the file server services and now I can access all the drives remotely. One funny thing happened before though. I could delete or create files from the command line, directly on the server, when I typed the exact path of said file on the G:, despite the fact...

Anyone here knows about Insight System Exchange? I don't remember linking them before. They might have interesting stuff for some of our US members (AFAIK, they don't ship outside United States). This server, for instance, seems like quite a deal ...

I can't access the administrative share from another computer. I haven't tried substing the path to another drive letter because the Hyper-V manager clearly points me to the G: for my VHDs. I don't see why they would be elsewhere. I'll browse Google a little more.

This map shows that winds where of category 1 in Paugie's region. He might have severe damages to his property, but this shouldn't be life-threatening.

The typhon passed South of Paugie's location. I don't doubt he has had quite a storm at his place, but I don't fear for his well being. He lives a bit North-West to Manila.

Indeed. Time and I did some experiment with RDP a few years ago and it felt a lot more responsive than things like Teamviewer, Croosloop or VNC. We did it through an Hamachi VPN, between Québec and Australia (hard to find more distant places on Earth than that).

I wish it was this easy. When I try to go to the G: drive (the one where the VHD are), g: appears for one second and then I'm brought back to the c:. That's when I'm typing on the keyboard physically attached to the server, as an Administrator.

Yes, it has one. And I log as the local Administrator, so I'm pretty sure I have all the access rights. I simply don't know how to do it.

When I remove a virtual machine from my newly configured Hyper-V Server 2012 R2, it leaves the VHD (or VHDX) intact. This takes space. I read that this is normal behavior and that I have to manually remove the VHD and folders manually. I can't figure out how. I access the server by remote...

Most of your graphic cards must have had that plastic layer...

I've used LG 23in IPS monitors often in the past year. Other than poor black uniformity, they show a decent picture quality. They are not very expensive either. LG sells 21.5in IPS monitors too, IIRC.

We have a Synology DS1512+ filled with WD 2TB Caviar Green and it's been working flawlessly for over a year. Using Caviar Green wasn't my choice (I wasn't working there when the pruchase was done), but I can confirm that the device works without issue. RAID5 is used.

I see that StarBlazer and w1ecb have joined the team. Good job Doug.

Here are the interesting facts about the drive : News source Of course, it uses a standard SATA 6G interface. A 1.5TB model will be available too. At last, one drive to answere Mooner's dreams.
