Do you guys think I'll be able to get Vista HP + MS Office 2007 on the 30GB SSD & be functional? If not let me know what you want for that WinXP, Doug. Thanks, Clocker

Looks like Vista Home Basic might have more modest boot drive size requirements. Might be interested in that too.

On second thought I am reading some things on the 'net that say a 30GB SSD is too small for either and I am stuck with XP. Interested in hearing opinions on that as well. I could potentially take my 64GB SSD out of my main machine and put it into this laptop b& uprgrade the Desktop to...

Howdy- I have a Lenovo R61 laptop. 2Ghz C2D with 2GB RAM and onboard graphics. 30GB SSD. I want to put a Windows OS on it as cheaply as possible. I think XP is just a little too old and would prefer Win Vista or 7. If you guys have anything you would like to give a deal on let me know. I...

I don't think TRIM is enabled on these drives. I thought the drives incorporated some type of RAID controller to acheive their high speeds and that you could not implement TRIM on a RAID-0 array. Been a while though.. Edit: Looks like I was wrong depending on what vintage of drive you have...

Using Firefox for Android and I didn't see an edit button although I looked for it.

They don't have spell check working yet I guess. :-)

I'm running CM9 alpha2 (ICS) on my Touchpad and can't believe how great it is. Got mine for $99 during the firesale but I think the refurbs you can buy now at twice that price still represent a grat value. Streaming my google music on it now as I type tis.

Enjoy!

So my co-worker has three kids and his wife doesn't work. He needs a new computer but can't afford it, his 12 year old P4 system was letting him down. So I dig in the parts bin and this is the gift I build to give to him: Case: Antec P180 M/B: Asus A8R32-MVP Deluxe CPU: Athlon 64 4000+ San...

Coug needs to start watching Spartacus to feed his inner beast. Didn't know you could actually watch it on the Starz website! http://www.starz.com/originals/spartacus?src=starz_mktg&med=referral&cmp=SPS2

New season of Spartacus started on Starz last night. They kicked this season off with the slaughter of a bunch Roman's in a brothel. Pretty much sums of the entire show I think. Excellent.

Thank you, Captain Obvious. I am not delusional. Yes, I am well aware that you would be unable to hear the difference unless you had high end audio equipment and were in a very good environment, with a trained ear. The thought was that if I could find a lossless format that would work in my...

you guys are really funny sometimes

Because my car will play WMA but I doubt it will play FLAC.

I'm going to do EAC/Lame but I think I'll also rip the tracks to WMA-Lossless for comparison. WMP seems to make it pretty easy to try that.

I have a couple new music CDs I got as gifts. What's the latest preferred method/app/settings that you audiophiles use to rip your music to MP3? Thanks, Clocker

This is actually the one I have. For $13 shipped, I think you just spent more time typing about how to get that phone to do what you want than it's worth. :-)

Why bother with having to plug in your phone every time you get into the car? Just put your music on one of these and all the music is there and ready to sort through and play, however you like, as soon as you start up the car. They are available in pretty large capacities (16GB). Probably...

I'm sure that's why it was taken. Every week the collectors drive down our street to see what gems of ferrous material they can pickup. For a while, even street signs were disappearing throughout the sub. Replaced with fiberglass versions now.

LOL! They were gone within 10min of me putting them out there! Didn't even have time to finish the CL ad.

It's amazing the people that will show up when you put crap in the CL free section. Usually within a couple hours. I bet these will be gone by the AM but I won't put a price on them. If I just say there's a varitey of working computer parts inside them, an interested party will probably take...

Lol

I'll just put it up in the free section of craigslist before trash day. Someone might come pick it up from the curb at least for the scrap metal...

Yeah, just Stereo I assume. Looks like trash time. C

I have an Asus RT-N16, pretty underutilized just running Tomato. I wonder if I could install something on that?

Don't be a drag, just be a queen! ;-)

:-) She actually has some talent. Heard her singing without all the background and synthesizers and I was impressed. I was a little shocked by her at first and figured I would hate her stuff but after watching her concert on HBO I was pretty surprised. That's when I learned that she had a...

I like Lady Gaga. She was my first ever music purchase on the internet. I used Amazon MP3 to buy a a few of her songs.

The small one has a S754 M/B in it. The medium one has a Socket-A M/B. The big Fong Kai FK-320 is empty but has a custom hammered metal paintjob. .. All the opticals in them area IDE. Going out to the curb this Friday AM for garbage pickup. Also have a matched pair of Kingston 512MB DDR400...

That site says the vulnerability is patched but I could only find patches for LaserJet printers. Only Laserjets are affected? I have an HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 (inkjet)..... Thanks for any advice you guys can provide! Clocker

So, if my network is otherwise clean, is my HP inkjet All-in-one printer at risk of internet attack if it is behind/attached to my Tomato based router/firewall?

I think they just push the higher end ones too close to the limit. Especially with some manufacturers overclocking the cards 'out of the box'. That being said, I don't know what the 68XX cards are all about.

Me? I would not mind finding a full-featured M/B with CPU. IIRC my Q9950 uses DDR-2 so I would new new RAM too, correct. If I were to get anything now I would want something more full featured & with more I/O options (USB + Firewire+eSATA) than what I have now, EP45-UD3L But right now I'm...

Just kiddin' Coug. My wife could potentially lose her job in the next couple weeks, though. :-( Seriously though, what would you sell them here for?

I have a used HD 4890 I just bought so I can play some on the cheap titles I bought on Steam during the holidays. Definitely runs hotter and noisier than my G94 9600gt. Cards like the 4890 that need 2 power connections are ridiculous IMO but for $50 shipped I could not pass it up...

Give the nicer one to me. I'm still on s775 with a q9550. I'll pay for shipping! :)

Windows 8 Storage Spaces Something that will get me to upgrade to Win8 when it comes out, I think: http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/news/2012/01/windows-8-storage-spaces-detailed-pooling-redundant-disk-space-for-all.ars Boot into the OS with an SSD and then have all my other disks be part of...

Happy New Year to you all!

Way behind the times here but my 4 year old just got a Wii. I got it installed, have not played any games yet but connected it to the internet and downloaded all the updates etc. What's good on the Wii for little ones? Anything I should know these systems? Good accessories to get? How about...

Crossloop worked great guys. Thanks!

What free app/service are you guys using for remote support of family/friends Windows 7 PCs? My brother has Win7 Home and will need some help configuring a couple things. I'd like to control his PC remotely if possible... Edit: It needs to be simple for him to setup at his end! Thanks...

I should not have crashed at 9PM last thing. This is making me laugh so hard I'm afraid I might wake up the rest of the house: http://damnyouautocorrect.com/13603/the-25-funniest-autocorrects-of-dyacs-first-year/

I like the door. I can go a year or even longer w/o accessing the DVD drive, so a door makes sense for me.

Looks really nice to me and, bonus, they got rid of the stupid 'lower chamber' separating the PSU from the rest of the machine. All it did was cause routing problems for me. http://www.anandtech.com/show/5090/antec-p280-when-enthusiasts-are-engineers/

75GB in Pictures 152GB Music 110GB Video 13GB of other documents etc. 350GB Total Just my home stuff.

Never noticed the OP problem and I'm on WiFi almost all day via my work's connection. CM7.1, Android 2.3.7, Market 3.1.5, HTC Droid Incredible.

I don't think there's really much reason to monitor temp other than during stress testing the initial build to be sure it is capable. For that I would use FurMark, I believe it records GPU temperature for you.
