I want to try it out from curiosity more than anything else. Some have said that it carries less eye-candy bloat than XP, which I would find positive.

Does anyone here have hands-on familiarity with this OS? I recently obtained it, and would like to try running it as my desktop OS such as Greg is doing. The R2 version comes with 2 CDs, the first CD is Server 2003 (SP1 slipstream), the second CD is the R2 add-on package. My question is this...

Further Stevens criticism: http://www.alaskareport.com/alaska10062.htm Then again, how good of a speech regarding the internet can you expect to get from someone born in 1923??

I vote for removal.

[REQ:] A prominent FAH stats link button on the forum main page. (...Or is the SF FAH effort discontinued??)

Fuji F30, if the shortcomings that some sites are reporting don't faze you.

Aquire ERD Commander and boot it up, then set the wpa.bak as the wpa.dbl?? This is the keyfinder that I use, BTW.

ID3-TagIT is the MP3 tag editor that I've used. Freeware.

Bah, it wasn't even lunchtime yet when you wrote that. :mrgrn:

Hyperthreading / Dual Processor patches have been available since December '05 when they started beta-testing v1.05b

They're back. At least at this moment. $49.99 http://www.woot.com/default.aspx

4GB / $244 ; free shipping ; no taxes http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=387521 My main needs were audio quality and the device to be non-Apple. 4GB is plenty of space. I intend to just keep the songs I like from given albums; not store my entire collection on it.

Ordered an iAudio 6 on Friday. Will get it next week sometime.

The original photos must have still retained their embedded EXIF data.

Those look like a different person compared to when you visited here a few years ago. :dunno:

C-Net review of Rockbox firmware. It sounds like a good idea. I'm still considering the Cowon iAudio 6 myself.

The last few times I wanted a full paper manual for a device that only had documentation available via PDF download I just went and had it printed for me. For instance, the E815 cell phone that I just got has a 100+ page PDF manual. I burned the PDF manual onto a CDr, took it to Kinkos, and had...

That's the same desktop replacement unit that my last employer issued me for accessing online aircraft maintenance documents. What a slow piece of crap...even with a Gig of ram in it. At least you can substitute it for a 10-pound dumbbell during your workout routines.

There's no such software. The document reader component of Acrobat 7.0 Professional is no faster than the standalone Acrobat Reader. If you want your install of Acrobat Reader to run faster, use PDF SpeedUp. Run it with all the boxes checked except "No Browser Integration" and also don't let...

:rotfl: Might as well get a ring made out of depleted uranium while you're at it. I have a rivet bucking bar made out of tungsten; that metal isn't meant for jewelry.

You're very welcome, Paugie. I appreciate your (and the other guys) kind remarks on it. If you want the original photo, and not the resized one I posted on photobucket, let me know and I can email it to you. The original is 2560 x 1920. (Partial EXIF info) Make - OLYMPUS OPTICAL CO.,LTD...

Full Post Shirokiya Website Well, I guess this is where the magic ends...Shirokiya is selling those F11's for $349. .

The F30 is supposed to be out in a month or so.

Here is a picture I took this evening from my back patio. It was easily the most awesome rainbow I'd ever seen in my life. It was a double and both arcs spanned their lengths unbroken from end to end. By the time I rousted out my camera it was starting to dissipate. The picture was...

I guess it's a different issue then. I tend to worry about the possibility of someone's malignant intentions if they obtain a photo of me.

Younger looking than I expected, too. I'm surprised that you posted it. I thought you were in the same boat as me in avoiding public internet viewings of one's picture.

Well, there's now a new A&P technician requisition at a Boeing Field company, Pradeep... I can put in a good word for you if you feel like a career change. Heh. Otherwise, best of luck on your end!

Thanks fellers. I got recalled by UAL after being laid-off since October '01. Back to work at Seattle-Tacoma International. I had a lot of very sad goodbyes to say over the last few days.

So much for that job. Last day was today. 2 years 8 months. Start another one Monday.

Not bad. I wish that Cenatek I used to have was bootable.

Actually the FPS gameplay is quite good. At least OK, anyway. The film effect they use in the game is annoying to me, though. Some of the puzzles are enough to eat a tums over. :mrgrn:

Currently playing "Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth" It's interesting, but I'm craving some better firepower and a scoped weapon for crying out loud.

In Trillian, if I run the program from two different locations the AOLIM component complains loudly and insists that I log off one of them. It allows logging off of the remote location so you're not stranded.

I displayed the block in both browsers at the same time and then resized the windows so they were small, cropped around the blocks, and right next to each other. I took a screenshot of this and pasted it into Irfanview. In Irfanview, if you left click any point on the image the top border shows...

IE and FF give me different shades. FF gives a lighter shade closer to purple. IE more on the blue side.

There is a noticeable difference in the square's shade just viewing it in two different browsers.

Yes, that is the exact place. I had personal experience in trying to find the availability of one of their enclosures last fall. It said on the website that it was in stock. I tried to order one and they email that it's out of stock. I ask when they'll get some in. They say 30 days (!) I email...

The one I've found to be the best is the one Doug suggested years ago.. Trillian Pro It's takes some time to get all the settings dialed-in but after that it works great. I use it to run AOLIM, ICQ, MSN-M, and Yahoo-M all at the same time. It can also run IRC, jabber, and rendevous...none of...
