I used to come across Quantums in Compaq systems -- I guess that says it all.

When I get ailing Dell systems in my shop and the drive is the culprit, they're usually Seagate ATA drives.

Make a nice RAID 5 array that can double as a space heater.

"You can put your life on it." "Designed to protect data."

The time to buy was in August and September when AMD was below $12.50.

They were the first to ship drives using ATA-5, the first to market with 20, 30, and 40 GBs per platter. They were also the first to market with 8 MB cache ATA drives. Also, this P-ATA to S-ATA is just a personal preference, because obviously there is no performance difference.

I would have picked WD for their innovations, but I picked Samsung instead because of their reliability.

I went through part of the "Buy" option and updated this little beast to 1.42GHz, 80 GB drive, 512MB RAM (the 1 GB option is horrendously expensive), SuperDrive (can now burn DVDs), Internal Bluetooth, Wireless Keyboard and Mouse, plus the AppleCare Protection Plan. The price is now up to...

Nice!

I've been looking at some ATI PCI-E video card solutions, and I was wondering about the X300, X600PRO, and the X700PRO. Obviously the performance and price varies amongst these three cards, but what sort of AGP cards would you compare them with? I was thinking of using the X300 for office...

I can't fix your problem, but it is good to see that the SX6000 card worked for you under RH9. I tried this about 2 years ago with RH8 and RH9, it was a no-go. The card has been sitting in it's retail box every since. (Prior to that it was working flawlessly on a Windows NT 4.0 system.)

When Age of Empires III is released later this year, it will be time for a new computer. :D

Thank you.

Mercutio, we need some new Shakspearean insults for you to use, like: doting wizard, dissembling harlot, peevish, unhappy strumpet, quartered slave, fragment, shame of Rome, base slave, fusty plebeian, debile wretch, hereditary hangman, old crab-tree, horse-drench, kitchen malkin, etc...

WD

Nice animation of tsunami activity.

I'd imagine that trying to catch her would be the first hurdle. The second would probably be trying to overpower her inherent strength. Although a couple of bananas might lure her in.

Yes, I read that this morning, it certainly made for a good laugh. If it is true, I wish there would be a video.

What? Tea clearly wrote that "WD drives are phat."

Seatools has a disk cloning utility, or you could use XCOPY with the appropriate switches.

Random? I see a distinct pattern in those key strokes my young simian friend, and it’s not pretty.

My distributor has a boat load of the black bare-bones 3520A in stock.

That depends, do you like drinks that taste like candy? If so, you should try it. Captain Morgan also makes other flavored rums, one being mango. yum

I still have a PM in my Outbox for PW. The reason it is still there is that he has never logged onto this forum since before I sent the message. Additionally, it is not in my Sentbox.

As far as I can tell, a private message first hits the Outbox, and stays there until the receiver logs in. When they log in, the message moves from the Senders Outbox to their Sentbox.

Sheesh, Evian! I'm not talking about bottled birds!

It's always a shame to stop the brewing process, but for water that isn't a health risk, it is certainly worth any amount of effort for the Sri Lankan Brewery. Just as note, in times gone by, beverages containing an alcohol content were consumed more often because decent water was in short...

Yeah! She's been found alive (but badly injured). She is on a flight home to Germany. Bartender, drinks on the house! Thanks for your condolences.

Sri Lanka had roughly 19.3 million people. My dad's cousin made it through the ordeal. He was on vacation at the Khao Lak resort in the south of Thailand near Phuket. He was in his bungalow on the beach when the tsunami hit, he just remembers the impact and then waking up somewhere else. His...

Ever try tying double knots?

The mid-west here in the U.S. has been hit hard by a Winter storm. I also read that Finland was hit terribly hard by a recent storm. article I hope JoJo is okay.

Not as a suggestion to buy, but more as a post of amazement: $9.99 refurbished DVD Player

Episode 42 What a way to start the day.

Sorry JoJo, the Bartender is not allowed to drink on the job. But I'd gladly take the free drink for him. :D

Yup, I’ve had back problems for many years. Initially, I injured my upper back when I was a teenager, right under my right shoulder blade. Once in a while (a couple times a year) it would go spastic leaving me in a great deal of pain for a few days. Then, about a year and half ago, I injured...

A bit more on-topic (alternative energy) since I detoured this entire thread earlier (sorry mubs). Daimler-Chrysler and GM to work together in hybrid technology. article As was mentioned earlier in this thread, this will be the gas-engine-mated-with-an-electric-engine style technology; hardly...

Thanks Handy. I would love to see a video with the new Mercedes Benz CLK DTM AMG. image 1024 x 768 jpg more photos article

It's not free, but I use Winhex.

If you can spare the bandwidth.

Thanks Handy, nice track footage. Too bad for the arrogant British presentation. :D

Yes, I doubt it will be even close to the Porsche's $440,000.00+ price tag.

Wow, the information regarding the new Z06 really is being kept a secret. Autoweek has an article about a man that posted a photo of the new Corvette and then later had two GM Security guards visit his home about the illegal release of the photo. I've chosen not to link this thread to the article.

Clocker, what is the price range for the Z06?

That's also the slow 911. :D :wink:

Sounds very nice Clocker. Here is a good read over at Automobile Magazine. article

Finland seems to have a well regulated but prosperous hunting season. article
