Thanks for the fast answer! I suspect that even the CF4 Ti 4200 will be a ittle out of range, Jake. Is an MX-440 out of the question? (I feel much more comfortable with a Nvidia-based card than I do with ATI, by the way. I absolutely hate it one of our business systems gives trouble. Gaming...

Have to send this quote off in a half hour or so, I'm doing some web hunting right now (bit of the old LTSTBW) but one of you gentlemen might be able to (a) save me some legwork and (b) give me an opinion I trust. He has a competing quote right now for a P4 2400 with 512MB , 20GB HDD, and...

And theze wordz are???

So far as snakes to be bitten by go, those are not too bad. The fangs are small, placed at the back of the jaw, and the poison is relatively benign. I would certainly rather be bitten by one of those than by a Brown, a Tiger, a Taipan, a Copperhead, or a Death Adder. Or for that matter, than by...

So, if Höherer Artillerie-Kommandeur von der Sprachwissenschaft Polizei is to be part of this, one should also mention: His Majesty King Bill the First of Flagreen LiamC, His Highness Prince Bill the Second Steve, His Lordship Baron Graf von Groltz His Holiness Blakewry the Last and, of course...

In post-count order, the appropriate titles are: Her Grace the Grand Duchess Tea His Majesty the Tsar Tannin His Excellency Baron von Kougtek The Right Honourable Doug, Duke of Handruin Il Serenissimo Don Constantine, Professor Emeritus of Wizard The Right Honorable Viscount Buck His Lordship...

From the website, Primate, it looks like something that has to be worth a look. I'm downloading it now. Thanks!

A lot of people do, a lot of people don't, Cliptin. Personally, I like it in moderation: some beetroot in a mouthful of lettuce, ham, tomato and onion is very nice, a great slab of it on its own is unpleasant. It's not a vinegary vegetable, that all depends on how it's cooked. You can just boil...

Yup. Beetroot is a common thing to have in hamburbers here. Be sure to call it "beetroot" as if you just say "beet" people will have trouble getting your meaning. It goes well with a real burger, though a thin slice is nicer than a great slab of it. On plastic burgers from McChucks it is a...

Damn it, you humans just ruined a perfectly good Sunday morning. :( I haven't eaten a pizza in six months or so and I barely even glanced at this thread and, within a matter of moments, I found myself suddenly forced to put clothes on at the most uncivilised early hour of 11:30AM and take a...

Slip on over for that spot of consultancy with Red Hill and I'll show you. Best sort of cricket is beach cricket. (Note the non-traditional stumps. For proper beach cricket, you use a rubbish bin, an Esky (beer cooler) or the cardboard box your refreshment of choice comes in. It's very...

Not quite on-topic, but you know those stupid damn "your Real Player is out of date" emails you get all the bloody time? Yes? I dunno about you, but I hate them. And guess what - after bouncing them to junk@junkspy.com for a while, I see that Junk Spy has added them to their spam list and now...

You didn't list my favourite single toppings, such as hamandcheeseandtomato or tomatoandpepperandolivesandanchovies!

What? Past those Canadian border guards?

Oh, don't worry about it, Handruin. I'll criticise you anyway. :wink: (No matter what.) That's the trouble with being me. With the example of Tannin to learn from in my formative years, criticism is the only thing I'm really good at. :( (Apart from innovative zpelling and bananaz, of courze.)

Huh? Of course. :)

Yeah, yeah. OK. So I couldn't find a picture of a rat on an emergency stand-by power generation machine, only a hamster. I sort of hoped that no-one except Herr Dr Adcadet would notice the substitution. :( But you don't need to spend an extra 94c, you simply use the experimental rat itself...

No the forums are not an important part of our website, they are the important part of our website. The sole reason it exists, as a matter of fact. (Just a chance comment of no particular relevance to anything, let alone anyone. :wink:)

I mean Doug. (Stupid ape.)

Quantum WD AC280 (or relative from the same era) Quantum

Bahhh. Scientists! Not enough brain to come in out of the rain, half of them. What on earth do you think you need an expensive, unreliable UPS for, Adcadet? What you need is a small generator and one of these: PS: if you are not getting enough power, simply add a...

You are missing the point here. First ask yourself does Mozilla need constant security updates? Next, assume that you don't update Moz regularly. Assume that you do update Outbreak regularly. You are still a mile in front. Hey, think of it like buying a car. What would you go for? A known...

Ztorage Forumz.com I like it! :)

Does it take high density SDRAM? (runs and hides)

He's supposed to have upgraded long ago, but he's lazy. Ignore him, Doug. That's what I do.

Tannin and I have made a bargain with ourselves not to look at this thread until we have several hours free and no need to get up early the next morning.

Hmmmm ... perhaps there is a place for a virus or two here (says Tea, carefully avoiding use of the plural, just in case Cliptin and The Grammer Police get her), one that is highly infectious and carries as its payload a new and corrected SF Forum URL. Come to think of it, that might be a good...

(burp)

One thing wrong with your theory, Adcadet: I don't usually eat meat.

Wow! That waz quick! Thanks Doug! Just one thing: the redirection page from www.storageforum.net/phpbb2/index.php takes me to http://www.storageforum.net/phpBB2/www.storageforum.net/forum <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <title>S t o r a g e F o...

Oh nonsense. That's 87 year old Zaza Gabor with her 119th facelift on the left, and Ronnie Raygun in his accustomed position to the right. He's wearing makeup, of course. Zaza is upset because she doesn't like garlic for breakfast.

Yes, but ... why?

Thanks Bill (#2). I'm glad you liked it. I don't really see what it has to do with memory interleave though, but by all means use it if you want to, (Fool! He means the other thing you wrote, about PC-66 and PC-133 RAM, you stupid ape.) Oh. (Well, there is no need to be rude about it, you...

You nasty man. What did that nForce2 motherboard ever do to you?

Only 25G? That was a bargin! Why didn't you take it, you skinflint?

For simplicity and ease of installation, older versions of Netscape Messenger are hard to beat. Trouble is you get other crap with it, like Real Player. Rule of thumb is the older the version, the less crap. I must remember to play with Mozilla's mail one day soon and see what that's like for...

BTW: Jake, I must say that the Lite-On 48X just somehow feel right. I think Clint likes them.

Lite-On readers used to be middling -to-crap back in 20X days, same standard as Acer, which is to say middling-to-crap. To this day I don't really trust them even though their monitors have always been excellent and their burners have a great reputation. So far, just the one box of 10 48X...

(Tea sees picture of Pradeep, laughs uproariously) (Tea reads writing on shirt, stops laughing.)

A bump for iGary's benefit. I wouldn't want him getting the idea that those pictures in the other thread are genuine.

I understand about the importance of saving money, JTR. I learned about "a penny saved is a penny earned" when I was just little, and now that I have Tannin's credit card to rely on, rarely fail to ignore economy where this is possiblle. Back when Tannin was still saving up to buy the shop and...

This is an issue that arises with monotonous regularity, JTR. This thread over at the other place discusses it, albeit from a slightly different standpoint.

Good one Dozer. :) One of the little niceties of human behaviour, or so I'm told, is learning to go along with and even participate in things that are not really your sort of thing. This is why Tannin takes his hat off in a church, even though he doesn't believe. Or so he claims - I always have...

You're not zeriouz, Dozer?

He's not very good at explaining things, is he Cliptin? The cross-bar is made of two parts, called the "bails", and they are what it's all about: knock the bails off and he's out. Sometimes the bails are knocked up in the air and just happen to fall back again in the right place, which means the...

I dunno nuffin about databases, but I think that the end points of the categories are a little oddly chosen, so I'm going with a psychologist's vote and plumping for 300 to 500k.

I'm here Bartender. Anytime you need a paw, just let me know.

Tea: Le voleur congelé de bicyclette. James: The thief frozen of the bicycle? Yes, James. Or possibly Cuir-plaqué le Glacial. My good friend Google and I confess to a little confusion here. How does one translate "Hells Angel of the Frozen Wastes"?
