Neat. What's the best way to image XP, Ralf? Just use Ghost? Also, a more general question: is it possible to image XP/NT/2000 without using any software - i.e., the same way that you can copy a Win98 install just using drag and drop and "sys d:". PS: Welcome Ralf!

1: Because it's a Compaq 2: Because you want it to work 7: Because you don't want your friends to think you are stupid 5: Because you don't want your friends to know you are stupid.: 6: Because you would like to have some friends one day. 4: Because you can use drugs to cure a human pox...

Thankyou, ZX. May I count on your entirely voluntary campaign donation being in the mail? Oh, and about that knighthood: yez, of course. It'z yours as soon az I am elected.

NEC, IBM, or Toshiba. Zo far as I am aware, there aren't any other brandz.

Yez, Mercutio. On the other hand, if we ignore the no-one-iz-interezted 5400 RPM linez, Zamsung have not releazed a new drive zince the P40. What do you want ZR to do, review an imaginary one? (Not that there iz anything wrong with being imaginary, of courze.)

Yes, Merc. But apart from that, you think AOL is a pretty good company?

In a word, nothing at all. The Duron is EOL. That's official. AMD announced it quite some time ago. The current Athlon line will take over the entry level role (in fact the price difference is such that we stopped selling Durons several months ago - Athlon 2000 is our entry level these days) and...

I've read the blurbz, but being an ape of very little brain, I can't quite work out what the different verzions give you that actually makes a practical difference. I'd have registered it long ago but I can never work out which one to get. Advice pleaze?

Iz good! Noce one, Prof.

Doh! That's what I meant. "link: www.xxx.whatever" Slip of the brain.

PMMail and its not lizted! Excuze me, I have to go off and zulk now.

Not that I know of, Handruin. I just did a Google site: www.storageforum.net query and that turned up on it.

Not coming from http://www.scsi-planet.com/scsi-forums/ ?

It's your machine, JTR. Mozilla is incredibly stable. Opera 6.0x crashes once in a while, but never takes the machine down with it. Come and see Tannin. Bring money.

You're zlipping, Tannin. This bloke here zaid it much better.

Thiz rant is even smaller. No repliez. (Go to bed, Tea!)

Why iz this a "small customer" service rant? Are you short like me? Do you think they give better service to tall people?

Looks a bit like Prof. Wizard. :)

Nonzense, JTR. Write-once CDs are readily recyclable. Belinda puts strings through the convienient little hole in the middle and hangs lots of them up on the fruit trees to scare the birds away. It spooks them completely. For about ... er ... maybe the first day or two.

Chaka Kakn? Eeek! I think I'd rather be Windows 3.0.

I took it to be his daddy - Gengiz Kahn. If I'm going to be a villan, I might as well be a bloody big one. Also, given the long history the Chinese/Mongolian people have of getting on very badly with the Russians, I thought that would describe my relations with Tsar Tannin pretty well. :)...

Mind you, we have not had a single 60GXP fail.

Bahh. You are well-informed, Coug. You want to try forming an opinion bazed on zero unitz - it's much harder!

I am Zlackware Linux too. Tannin wants to know which questionz he haz to anzwer a different wayu so that he can be OZ/2.

Or possibly, unless the user is one?

Yup. With friends like those ...

Opening cases? Huh? I thought there only was one way.

http://www.dack.com/web/flash_evil.html Visit. Read. Laugh.

Wasn't the famous Sound Blaster & VIA bug usually triggered with large files? Or am I misremembering?

Funny it should come up in conversation just now. I had several of the 166MHz ones in our office machines for quite a while, but I hadn't seen one for yonks. Then, just this week, one came in to be upgraded.

Only about .... oh ... 20% of them, I guess. Most 486s have a socket and can be chip upgraded. And if it's got a brand name on it, it's not a computer anyway, it'z juzt a vomit box. You are thinking of the AMD 5x86, Mercutio. The K5 was AMD's Pentium Classic and 6x86 Classic competitor. You can...

But there iz cheese in cheesecake. Cream cheese. On the other hand, I have been searching for ages and I still can't find the pan in a pancake.

Did you steal them? Give them back right this minute!

Arctic air mass? Send it here, send it here!

I think you just got fragged, Doug. Press ALT-F4 to go back to the Windows desktop now. Try Minesweeper. That one's easier when you are playing by braile.

Whools: I didnt answer the question. Yes, I think they did. I know our Panasonic rep was forever ringing up about it. I wonder how many units they actually sold? My guess is not very many.

Tannin used to be one of the biggest Panasonic fans around, Edward. These days, the only Panasonic product he buys is a box of floppy drives every few weeks. Unfortunately for me, "Panasonic" used to be a lot easier to spell correctly than "Mitsubishi" is. Such is life. By the way, we have...

So .... how's your Counterstrike?

Oh, and: Tuzt me, anyone, you don't want to zee the thread.

I don't t hink anyone'z going to argue, Jake. Now, would you mind giving me a hand with Handruin? He seemz to have a fork stuck in his head.

Whowwww!!!! (Must you always use five exclamation marks, Tea?) (It's HOT out there!) (I know. That's why I'm in here.) (How many hots is it?) (43) (It feels like 109!) (It is 109 if you count them the other way. That's called '"degrees F". They count them that way over in America. I don't...

(Tannin?) (Yes Tea?) (Whatz "cold" mean?) (Well, Tea, it's like ... um ... I'm not sure, actually. I think it was cold a while ago, like last year. Do you remember last year?) (I remember breakfast. ) (sigh) (Tannin? What are we doing at the office? I don't like going to the office on a...

(a) Eeeek! You humanz are ztrange, ztrange creatures! (b) I saw, I clicked, I vomited. (c) Well, OK, I didn't vomited. No need to waste a perfectly good slice of chocolate cake. But I thought about it.

Hi Stephen. There are several points to make. a: As you say, there ain't much get up and go in a 486-33. But this doesn't make it unimportant to tune it for best performance - quite the opposite. It is much more important to get every last drop of performance out of it than it is, say, to tune...

Not all Aussies, Coug. Just the happy hairy ones and the grumpy not-so-hairy ones. Most of the others can spell. :wink:

One of the most highly evolved and best adapted species on the planet is Rattus rattus. Flazh seems to me to fit very well within the general concept of "evolution".

a: it doesn't go with honey b: I am not a ztupid human, I never forget anything c: ah ... excuse me for a moment (Tannin?) (Hmmm?) (What was "c" again?) (I don't think there was one, Tea.) (Oh. Thanks. Sometimez I can't remember.) c: We are not having any c today. d: We are not having any...

That, JTR, would be the best news for zimians and humans in the last 125 thousand years. Let's do the mathz, zhall we? (Forgive the odd approximation here and there, I'm just going to rough out the outline.) (a) Currently, the US has about 250 million citizens, and accounts for 25% of the...

Sorry. I think is lexdixia my zhowing.
