Looks like they have made quite a few changes, in many areas. I might skip the dual core gen and go straight to the quads in 2007. http://theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=35011 Barcelona is the first native quad-core AMD CPU, commonly but wrongly referred to as K8L. It is the first real...

We are moving away from Trend at work. Switching to Sophos. Reason being lack of decent support.

The problem is a lot of passsword requiring devices keep a history of last used ones, and force you to come up with shit that you forget shortly thereafter.

Customs for an internal shipment?

The 24" Dell 2407WFP has an HDCP enabled DVI input, so using a cheap HDMI->DVI cable will work just fine. And you still have the component input as well. How about 32" for $1199? 1366*768 so not too high a rez for your eyes. HDMI, two component, VGA, even a built in ATSC OTA tuner...

Install an Exchange server? It depends on if this is the new girlfriend or the soon to be ex girlfriend I guess?

Apparently the Dell recall is going to be expanded in the scope of what models are affected, the update should happen today.

Can't help you with the CPUs, but how's jolly olde London towne going? Been doing any shooting?

Don't you work for EMC? ;) The money people pay for "enterprise" level storage is always staggering to me.

OK, I see it now as a thumbnail once I logged in.

I don't think you can display an attached image inline. You would need to host it yourself and post the url as a linky for that? I had to login to see Tea's image.

Yeah, looks like Canon and Nikon aren't really engaging in any quality wars at the top end. Need to go to the 35MPixel scanning backs for a significant step up. I liked the look of the 6*17 160 Mpixel (scanning back) camera...

I noticed that the most recent SATA spec includes daisychaining e.SATA external boxes. This then appeared as a seamless increase in capacity to the O.S. Perfect for daisychaining external SATA hard drives off the HD DVR.

What truck? I'm guessing something with the GMT-900 (sp?) platform?

Probably going for 6 Gbit/sec to compete with 4 Gbit/sec Fibre Channel.

I have a problem whereby when someone fills in a formmail form with Japanese characters, when the email is received it's just gibberish. Is there a setting that allows the Japanese character set to come thru unmolested? TIA, Pradeep.

They do have FIOS for business, still cheap compared to a T1. No SLA yet. http://www22.verizon.com/content/businessfios/packagesandprices/packagesandprices.htm

Last place I worked for had a T1 for about $450-$500 a month, when bundled with VOIP (it used part of the T1 for voice), Runco supplied it.

2MB up and down is always a little expensive. Unless you have FiOS.

One thing I might leave out is the mention of being able to run without coolant. It makes me think this has been done to this particular car.

Yeah, but with FW you are left with HDV compressed video, the HDMI option allows you to capture uncompressed. The Sony HDR-HC3 has HDMI output.

Specialised for those with certain HDV camcorders. It doesn't capture protected content (i.e. that from DVD/HD-DVD players). But certainly, an interesting way to get fantastic video quality captures from consumer level gear.

If you can deal with $50 per month then Verizon BroadBand access or similar would allow you to surf anywhere there is a cell signal, a far greater range than the olde $tarbuck$.

I've had good experiences with Dell Business sales, specifically their Medium-Large Business section. Work out an online configuration of your choice, then call up your Dell rep and they seem to be able to knock 25-33% off whatever you can get on the website. This is for orders of perhaps 5-10...

A lot of those photo printing booths are Kodaks. But none of those kinds of machines can print out a 20" x 30".

Ala Quantum "Bigfoot" style, hell make it 2TB and full height.

What's wierd with Chrysler is that just last year they were offering 7yr/70,000 mile powertrain warranties. When they change warranty durations every year, that's got to confuse consumers. Have you had a bad experience with Hyundai Mark? I can assure you quality is vastly improved over the...

Had left/right headlight bulbs, and a tail light replaced under warranty, Elantra is about 2.5 years old. I believe the 1 yr/12 month is for all other lamps (inside dome, etc). Either that or I've got a good dealer. Dealership makes all the difference come warranty claim time. Here's to hoping...

Follow up: I don't know if I'd classify it as the most comprehensive in the industry, unless you are referring to just US auto industry? Because Hyundai and Co. have 5yr/60,000 bumper to bumper and 5yr/unlimited miles road side assistance. The Hyundai bumper to bumper even includes...

That's great news. Nice to see them one-upping Mistubishi, Kias and Hyundai by having the warranty stay with the car/truck, instead of the owner. Though it would be nice to see them make it 10 years for the powertrain, for those that drive less than 20K per year. Local Ford dealership (local...

8 MP should be fine for a 20*30 print (assuming you aren't doing much cropping). It depends on what distance it's going to be viewed from as well.

The site doesn't even come up for me now.

There is no fix. It just is. It reserves the 700MB that is "missing" for PCI addresses and all kinds of useless shite.

Watched the Animal Planet rerun last night of the interview Steve did in June of 2004, really touching stuff.

Try this: http://www.svsound.com/products-sys-sbs.cfm 5 speakers plus sub for $999. Should be sufficient for any apartment dweller. The Pioneer 1015 receiver is good value for money.

That sound projector reminds me of the Bose 901. Dozens of ultra cheap drivers meant very loud, but very crap music. I'm sure the Yamaha is better, but still... I would say it is more for the flat panel crowd that don't want 6 or 7 speakers cluttering their living space. For speakers, try...

The Klipsch THX Ultra speakers are reportedly excellent (no comparison to the computer speakers).

What kind of car do you have that costs $1K per month?

You could have a significant improvement in quality with some nice headphones, and a dedicated headphone amp. Plus it takes room acoustics out of the picture. Only works if you are listening for one tho.

consortium

Dell and Genesis are backers of the DisplayPort consurtium I believe. Totally incompatible with HDMI or HDCP, uses a Philips designed protection scheme. All for the sake of saving the 4c charge for an HDMI port.

If you are interested in running at 1920*1200 and beyond, look for a switcher that is dual link capable.

6 foot dual link DVI cables: http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10209&cs_id=1020901&p_id=2686&seq=1&format=2&style= About $11 dollars each in the quantity you are looking at. If you want to go real cheap they have a 4 port manual rotary DVI switcher for about $60.

4 port DVI KVM with USB: http://avocent.com/web/en.nsf/Content/SwitchViewDVI-4port However you are looking at around $200 plus shipping.

Images of the connector etc. http://www.udisig.org/news_events/idf_s06_udisig.pdf Looks like HDMI->UDI cables will work fine. Now isn't there some competing standard called DisplayPort or somesuch?

http://www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=3919 Should be a F@H client for ATI GPUs, in addition to a PS3 client. Could see a remarkable boost in folding performance once the ATI client is released (in alpha/beta stage) in September.

HDMI (especially ver 1.3) has higher max datarates and additional features that would make it preferable to DVI. From what I understand UDI is an attempt to cut the cost of the connector, as the CE/PC companies are paying a premium for HDMI connector tech (disregarding the HDCP licensing fee)...

For bushwalking I have a Macpac Minaret: http://www.macpac.co.nz/products/display/catalogue/do,displayitem-view/mid,/miid,2996/diid,880/ Fits 2 snugly, great for single. Very light, especially with aluminium snowpegs. If you are going to be carting the tent in your car, I would get the...
