Prices start at ~$7000.00 :o

Has anyone installed an SSD in a USB enclosure?? Is there no point with USB's slow transfer rates?

Do the Logitech wireless mice have a replaceable battery in them now? The one I had didn't and when the battery puked, that was the end of the mouse. CougTek: my Logitech mouse went across the basement into a block wall.

Your home theater sounds like it would draw 100A :wink:

That seems awful low. 200A is pretty much standard here.

It's home wiring network.

I really like my MS Wireless Laser 6000. I've had it so long that the silver paint is worn off. Try to find a store that has mice on display that you can test. I buy the cheapest MS optical mice I can find for work. (corded) It is surprising how long these things last in an industrial setting...

Is there any thing left of the original house besides the exterier walls?

Maybe you can find some thing here.

I don't know. That's up to the engineers and programmers. I maintain the hardware.

Most are MS SQL server. A lot of the data comes from proprietary software.

No, but the combination of lots of databases adds up to TBs.

Did the RAID array initialize? Try running a 'verify' from the 3Ware web access program

For our servers, I use two drives in RAID 1 for the operating system and programs. A separate hard drive for data. Through out the day the data is transferred to storage computer. How often this is done is determined by the process owner. Twice a day, all the data is transfer off site to another...

MS SQL Server 2005 standard edition x64 CD or DVD. We have a valid license, but no software for 64 bit. Thanks.

From Toshiba

What doesn't make sense is most drives are rated upwards of 1000G of shock tolerance, non-operating. Even minimal packing should be sufficient. Considering the millions that are made every year, I would think most of the bad hard drives were borked at the factory before shipping.

Graphite Foam for LED cooling.

This looks ineresting.

If you right click 'Network', click 'Properties', click 'Change Adapter Settings', click 'Advanced', then click 'Advanced Settings' you can prioritize your connections. I don't have wireless, but I think this might help.

What's the matter with Open Office?

Radioactive waste?? :dunno:

Merc, you definitely have a way with words! :rofl:

Maybe we should go back to using Sears catalogs and corn cobs. :o

And, it's not any better. :lol:

Depending on how thick your walls are, and how many cables you are going to run, you can use central vacuum plastic pipe. (signal or low voltage stuff only) The walls of the pipe are very thin which means you can get more wires inside compared to schedule 40 conduit or water pipe.

Ear plugs and ear muffs don't help?

If you have access, you can run plastic pipe up through a corner in a closet. This way you can add or upgrade at a later time. You can also buy cable that is rated to be installed inside heating & A/C duct work. Beings both types of cable are shielded, there shouldn't be a problem with the...

In the plant where I work, if the dirt gets too bad, the pc usually shuts down.

I haven't found anything that doesn't work.

Just installed this in a virtual Win 7 install. So far it's great. Plenty of options to play with.

Looks good. Have you tried this?

13,000! WOW That's impressive Merc

Just went through the same thing with my Discover card. A ton of money charged to iTunesstore. :cursin:

That's a nice setup except I'm dealing with Comcast Digital. And when I checked the Sandisk site, I found it works on Comcast but doesn't get the channels we watch the most. Thanks

I have installed about a dozen of them. They are all metal with a plastic face plate. Plenty rigid.

Is this Hauppauge TV card a good one? Thanks

I thought Mercutio lived in the Chicago area??

Why not install one of these?

Why not use headphones?

I found a set at Walmart for $20. But right now the name escapes me. (I'm not at home) They even have a sub-woofer. Sound is pretty good too.

Pradeep-"The natural gas is reformed to produce hydrogen, which is then run directly through to a fuel cell stack to generate electricity for the home and enough heat to run the hot water supply." You're back to using a natural resource which can be depleted. If you are going to use natural...

Supposedly, when in dual mode the sticks can be written to in parallel. [both at the same time] Standard memory fills one stick then moves to the next stick. I'd go with the dual sticks.

Check out the Tesla.

Mubs, I agree. I have been using XYplorer for file management. Better than Win 7.

What happens if some moron runs a red light and hits that thing broad side. Will it collapse down on the car? Tip over?

I ended up coating the grout with a stain to get it right. But what a pain. Now every few years I have to touch it up.

Just make sure you have at least 2GB of memory.

I tiled our foyer floor and everything looked fine untile the grout dried. It was the wrong colour. The jerks at Home Depot gave us the wrong stuff. :arge:
