This is onsale now at overstock.com It's a 60GB drive, but by the specs I was assuming it was a DM+8 I don't believe this is photoshopped... it does come with a 90 day warranty from overstock.com

You can bet this drive comes from a full warranty by the manuf. http://buy.overstock.com/images/products/3/L932573.jpg

Im hoping HL2 will be under the christmas tree this year.

i wonder if that's still the case today. I thought the PCB was made out of plastic or some organic material and that there were metal traces made primarily from aluminum. Soldered places would probably have a tin/lead mix.

before I got cable internet I was stuck on dialup... using a hardware modem I could get maybe 21.6kbps-24kbps... using a lucent winmodem I could get 24kbps-26.4kbps. For a period of about 3 months I would occasionally get 28.8kbps That is with trying 3-4 different ISPs in my area and after...

I thought it was a neat idea and might be a good solution for someone who wants to get content from their computer to their TV without hassling with an HTPC or a high cost TV out card and cabling.

Found this neat little gizmo on bensbargains.net http://www.buy.com/retail/clearance/dotd.asp?loc=114&sku=70012125 It is a networked DVD player, allowing you to stream content from your computer to it, then to your TV.

i know. But you're going to have to wait... a google search yeilded information that USB2.0 adapters for 802.11a/g are in the works... but if newegg doesn't have em they're likely not out yet. I wouldn't doubt if they start to trickle into the market in a few months.

no need to download... in winXP, simply goto the command line and type: netsh int ip reset c:\reset.log then check c:\reset.log for details

I was thinking maxtor was claiming 1,000,000 hours on some of its ATA disks.... not sure exactly how they figure that mean time before failure, but it certainly isn't a measure of the average life of one of these disks.

Hey, that's a trick, but can you put together working computers from junk? j/k... aparently the anger sharks are swimming as you fondly reminise about the old days.

What are some good games to play? Admitedly I'm a bit out of touch. I get halflife: Counter-strike free from a friend who had an extra copy and the last game I purchased was quake3. I've played a bit of america's army, warcraft III, unreal 2 (i think it was 2), and battlefield 1942. I have a...

newegg has some USB2 -> 100baseTX Ethernet adapters... pair them with a wired -> Wireless bridge and you have yourself one very expensive USB2.0 wireless setup. USB2.0 -> 100baseTX adapters Netgear: N82E16833122108 Dlink: N82E16833127127

man.....

why dont you add the google search? http://www.google.com/searchcode.html you can easily have it search your entire site... and just your site. very nifty.

same here jtr. -I'm not below dumpster diving. At work we still mainly use SVGA 15" CRTs... We could have used some of those monitors man. (let us throw out the ghetto ones we have) Come to think of it.. alot of the people I talk to at work are getting rid of perfectly usable pentium MMX/pII...

:(

I scored pretty low on the 1st test, 14 I believe. I got a 29 on the EQ test and I failed to take the SQ test.. maybe tomorrow. I too dislike these tests because the questions are overly vague and if you think for just a moment you'll see that almost none of them can be answered with the...

i saw that maybe a month ago road runner moved from 2MBit to 3Mbit.. seems to be the standard cable speed in the US now. Everest cable has offered 3Mbit cable for the past several years here in the shawnee mission area.

i guess it depends on the ISP. One of the few Canadians I've talked to personally Seemed to be in a crappy situation. DSL internet that was maybe $60 a month after all was said and done. And that was only downloading 5GB or so a month... Aparently he is charged maybe $40 a month and has a pretty...

we definately need to do something. It's crazy. Decent cable/DSL Internet access should be like phone service. Available and reliable at a reasonable price. $20-30 seems reasonable to me. I can see caping the speed, but I'd prefer reasonable traffic caps at say the same amount of data that can...

wow, talk about getting fancy with the ammo

i like phpbb :D down with invision boards!

I've never owned a pistol. But I have a small collection of mostly bolt action rifles. Even my shotgun is bolt action.... just a personal preference. I also own a pump .22 remington from the early 1900's.

i have to admit the topic's title thew me for a loop.... I usually wear business casual. Sometimes i dress up just for myself. Coug, I have the same problem with chest to waist ratio, but I think it's getting better now that I'm a little skinier... 42" chest and 28" waist just dont work in a...

i wonder if valve could realease faked source code in an attempt to confuse people looking to hack halflife2.... From what was mentioned in that article it seems like this was a very good hacker who broke into valve and stole the code. I wonder what his/her motivations were.

Aparently a suit was filed against the company my father works for and they weren't alowed to reformat, ghost, or delete any files off their machines. This includes hundreds if not throusands of desktops and hundreds of laptops. If something went wrong with a computer and they couldn't...

that's what I was thinking, but they usually dont just up and die after normal use... it seems they either work at 1st site or they don't... unless of course there is a power surge, fire, explosion, or bulging capacitor..

yes, but why invent BBCode when you already have HTML and you already have available renderers and dont have to 1) code a new renderer and 2) you dont have to increase the size of install/download size of the email program due to an included renderer

should that be intra compatible?

I've never had a problem, perhaps it's your package selection? for safeness just install everything (if possible). perl shouldn't be too hard to sintall using a package manager.

from my experience the promise fast track RAID controllers are inter compatible... you can use a fasttrack 66 created array on a FT 100 and vise versa (I've only tried with RAID 0). I'm thinking bum PSU, CPU or mobo.. Be sure and label your disks by channel that they are attached to the...

SOLD!

Anybody got an extra or an older ATi card that they're not using or want to get rid of? I'm looking for a card for my HTPC and basically want something cheap. AGP, PCI.. doesn't matter. VIVO or AIW would work for my needs, I was hoping under $50. Maybe you could sell the card and use the cash...

that would be command line....

sure, if you want to write http://www.blah.com/index5/asp/default.asp&username=blake and hope that their client is smart enough to make it a link or that the person can copy the link correctly, not to mention how it can mess up the formatting of what you want to say. Hyperlinks are a much better...

video and audio worked fine for me in linux

images and sounds in email were the driving force for html email. Otherwise we'd just be stuck with links (non clickable) and attachments.

everything in the section where I work is on a 100MBit switched LAN anyway (about 40 or so computers at best). I miss the setup I had at KU. All engineering students had a home folder on the main file server and when you logged in you had all your data and profile information there ready for...

it's just a disk cache ... claiming to be smarter than the built in MS windows disk cache. Increases speed at the expense of a decrease in reliability. FWIW, you can simply increase the size of the windows I/O cache via the registry and would probably recieve the same benefits.

they are already being sued by some real heavy hitters. They are also jeopardizing their spot as the holder of the .com and .net domains. I think they are doing it for advertizing. I believe they sued to have ads on that page, but think they took them down due to critizism.

i figured it was just a simple mis-communication. Sometimes what I type does not accurately (or maybe completely is a better word) describe my thoughts. The "tech" login is just under the users group. This is used for 1) login into one of the 30 or so workstations and 2) login to a file server...

btw, merc. looks like you got the mspaint virus, cause none of us have the same problem... are all these installs from a single ghost image or something?

did you try my last suggestion merc?

i've found it quite annoying, it doesn't give good suggestions and it doens't ever learn. I would rather have google search or the IE search come up if I type in an incorrect domain.

The Internet Software Consortium updated BIND to block this crap from verisign (and to prevent wildcard use on top level domains) For those of you who don't know what BIND is, it's the defacto standard software that runs DNS servers across the world. DNS servers make web domains possible, they...

i understand what you're saying, but I don't understand why you are saying it... what I meant is that where I work we have a username called "tech" every technician uses this exact login. This means that the majority of the people in the building are logged in as tech. In such a state you...

That's one thing I don't understand.. why strip windows? what are you left with? The only thing I can think of is the GUI APIs that windows programmers are used to. Why don't you just use *nix. It requires less RAM and less other resources and is made for thin client machines which ATMs could...

oh, and it used to require hardware dongles at one time.... YUCK!

symantec didnt make ghost in the 1st place... a new zealand based company called Binary Research did... and they sold it for several hundreds of dollars a copy... Symantec bought it from them thankfully.
