Sad to hear about. The beloved floppy, becoming moth-ridden, and downtrodden. Considering the few dollars they cost, Buck still includes them in the systems he sells.

Ed and Dave! Except for Santilli, all of the pictures you pick are of 20-year old people. Is there some precedent to this forum? Are Buck and I in the wrong place? Should we be starring on the show Waiting for God instead?

Mercutio, Would you say that more floppy drives are broken or that more floppy diskettes are unreadable and require a format? I've noticed how often floppy media is negatively altered by slight variations in temperature and humidity.

VLAD, I’m sorry to hear about your loss. Unforeseen circumstances befall us all, and they are not always the easiest to deal with. PS: I apologize for not addressing you by your real name, regrettably it fails my memory.

CAS, you must admit that your experience has brought you to a level of floppy-free operation that is uncommon for most users. Hence, Tony’s admonition to keep a floppy drive is quite valid. Once the mainstream market achieves your level function, the average solution will be different. Until...

Good point Constantine, Agape Love includes Brotherly Love.

Any performance degradation recorded from the previous month? Has the avatar directory size impacted our performance at all? What about some of the recent threads that are plastered with pictures?

I'm sorry to hear about all of your misfortunes Mercutio. I don't have any advice for you, but I do believe that you'll manage. I would hope that there is now closure (albeit painfully memorable), and that you will press forward.

James, as newly appointed Chairman, do you have any action items for yourself (besides this proliferation of broadband for all members)?

My pessimisms came to fruition. Germany has not been winning their games as a result of sheer prowess; their wins were more accidental. Hence, a truly proficient team plays them, and they deservedly lose. Theoretically, that is the point of the playoffs, and then the final match: the best...

This is a long list, but I could only find a few that actually fit: 1, 5, 6, 7, and 75. Number 79 made me think of my years as a printing press operator. To this day, UVed varnish on a bochure smells soooo good (and opening a fresh can of ink has this fruity note that is quite pleasant). No...

The Multiplier and or FSB are set incorrectly and will not automatically update with a different processor installed. At least that is what happened to me a few weeks ago.

That would be ironic, considering the Treasury Secretary is ex-CEO of Alcoa.

A round of applause for James. More drinks if so desired.

Well done my fine feathered friend. Drinks on the house!

Here is Tannin at Kristi's graduation. Kristi has grown, hasn't she. Too bad Tannin was on the bottle.

Blasted tape-seal drives.

Nice one Mercutio, but you forgot to color in the eyes on the sock.

How diplomatic: "...a timing and allocation issue."

Don't forget Buck's picture Tea.

Exactly. Massachusetts is great in the spring or fall like the rest of New England. Summer sucks, because it’s extraordinarily humid without any tropical breezes, and the winters are packed with ice and snow (usually). Boston is a great city (much better than New York if you don’t like...

Why don't we have SF shirts?

You surprised the brownies out of me Mark. But your office seems less cluttered then expected. You seem to have plenty of wall space above your computer for shelves.

I'll make it if you want it Dozer, but it sounds like a nasty collision between a redneck and a Frenchman. I'll get the Bloody Marys ready for your hangover.

Koggit, your picture is much better then your avatar, I'd recommend a switch (seems to suit your personality).

What a lonely feeling that must be. As far as 3-D glasses go, I have zero experience. But I am interested in knowing how much they improve a game. Your comments are appreciated.

You can keep your winters Coug. I like winter too, but the ones we get here, and some of what they get in Seattle. I have plenty of relatives in New England, and I'd prefer not to drive on ice for most of the winter.

That picture surprised me. I figured he'd be heavier, older looking, but not as psychotic. But he needs a haircut.

From what I've read, it is a learning program. Be before every new Round, the memory is cleared, so they both start off stupid again.

I think it was more of a mumble than a spout, an insult nonetheless. Alas, it just broke my heart to see a man with such worldly wisdom, orders an American Weizen Bier with such confidence and self-belief, viewing that his was the most honorable choice. But I must concede, it was a much better...

They are separate languages, especially in the spelling. But when I hear my Dutch friends talk, I'm surprised how many of the words pronounced (although spelled differently) sound similar to German. The same works for them when hearing people speak German. But again, there is no doubt about...

Go with Turtle Beach.

The table below gives us information for Round 1. I was referring to the present score. At the present time, AMD is ahead. Since a new match is started at 5:00 pm Hannover time, I'm guessing that the present Round playing is new, and that is also why the names have changed brands.

It is German. Dutch and Afrikaan are somewhat different, depending on the dialect. The score is in favor of AMD by one game, although they seem to be trading off the wins and losses. Interesting concept of having two chess programs play each other.

What can say, it's my job. What use does a bartender have for 3-D glasses anyway? (Unless of course they were funky beer glasses that I could charge for.)

What a way to attract visitors to your site.

Did someone say ale? How about something from Pikes Place Brewery, like their Kilt Lifter! :)

We're glad that you're on the team Dozer, and a hearty welcome from Storage Forum (seeing as how you're a newly registered member). What would you like to drink?

Great post Cliptin.

It seems that Dozer has flat-lined at the Genome project.

The JoJo takes a major lead in this race as Tea begins to run out of steam. Clocker is running several lengths behind Tea, but is slowly closing the gap. Handruin watches as Clocker races by and feels the stampede of CougTek coming from behind. Bartender begins picking up his pace but trails...

Yes, Buck just sold his last Creative and got a box of Samsungs in. He had to look a second time when the tray door opened, and a small smirk came to his face - and that's dinkie die, I swear. It is amazing how such little things make a difference to him.

Uh, that would have a completely different meaning. I'll let Tea or Tannin explain.

In my part of the world, we have a similar expression; it is a derogatory comment regarding Hispanics, but it sounds like they are tough battlers like the banana benders from Queensland.

Guess: Time is from Queensland, hence a banana bender?

Unbelievable: Germany 1 Korea 0 .... let's see if Brazil can beat Turkey.

That last photo from Handruin makes me think of what Tannin's desk must look like.

Welcome aboard Radboy, we look forward to your contributions.

Buck is going to buy some CDR-Ws today to check out their writing capabilities. Their CD-ROMs are nice. Besides performing pretty well like most products, the tray opens and closes smoothly and not too fast (but not as slow as some Plextors).

Nice avatar Jake.
