The new version screws some things up. Don't update if you haven't. I ain't happy.

The author has added options to TBE in the new release. The resize problem persists.

That should read "TabBrowser Extensions Preferences". Sorry about that. I just updated to 1.14.2005031002 after seeing your post. Thanks, TimWhit.

That's because the platters don't spin. The heads run around the tracks instead.

A bunch of these in pluggable drive racks would be cool!

1.13.2005022401 Those options have been there from day one in TabBrowser Extensions. I've been using FF from ~ ver. 0.7 (if there was such a version).

Congrats, P5-133XL, Pradeep and Cougtek!

Tab --> TabBrowser Preferences --> Use Tab --> Popups.

How InfoSpace took its investors for a ride A gripping account of the dot-boom and bust days at this company. The Legal Cousel was herself up to no good! Jain, the founder, is apparently doing quite well. The clincher was the SEC and the judge helping out Jain and the company, respectively.

I think they have stringent tests to find the dumbest of the dumb, then train them even further, and finally put them into customer disservice.

IIRC, the Lacies are two drives in RAID-0. There are plenty of horror stories of data loss in this kind of set up, regardless of the manufacturer/assembler.

Thanks for bringing me up to date, Splash. That was a concise but lucid enumeration of what's what.

Dang! Didn't know you could do that! Thanks, Gilbo! You da man!

According to this story in The Inquirer, Windows XP 64 is built from Server 2003. Is this good or bad? I know zilch about Server 2003.

Thanks for taking the time to the respond, Tannin. As an "IE-coddled computer moron" who's reasonably happy with Firefox, let me chip in with my 2 cents worth. The only issue I would consider a serious one is the load time. But like Fushigi, I seldom kill the browser, so it isn't a problem for...

L.A. Times. Registration required, but you can get an ID and PW from BugMeNot. Story on Yahoo. Yesterday's story on this also said that the man's testicles had also been torn off. Repeatedly, we are reminded not to mess with wild creatures (Sigfried & Roy), but we never learn.

Do you have TabBrowser Extensions installed? I believe I have it set to never open a new window unless I ask for it to. The default is to open a new tab. AHA! I tried ctrl-middle click, and it opened a new tab and didn't resize! The difficulty is, though, knowing beforehand which links will...

Here's a link you can try. Now in the upper left area, immediately to the left of the image, click on "see it larger". This should spawn a new tab, and the entire window resizes to a smaller area.

Innovative motor design touted Aimed at 3rd world; which is fantastic because it would cut pollution from oil-buring 2-stroke engines used in mopeds/scooter/mobikes. Problem is these same places typically don't have reliable electirity supply. Article also has a link to India's electric car...

Perhaps an external FW and/or USB2 drive, then? I seem to be peculiarly keen on annoying you with ideas you've already thought of. Yup. Only Hitachi makes faster drives. I wish the other guys would too. Prices would come down then. Maxtor in a notebook? Gee, no thanks.

Tannin, I used Moz briefly way back in the early days. Can you please tell me why you like it so much compared to FF? My system is meesed up too much already to try it and uninstall it. Despite imaging the system partition from time to time, too much water flows under the brdige in-between. :cursin:

Lunar, you're either not a normal human being (intellectually and otherwise magnitudes more advanced that John Doe) or you're missing out on something magical and wonderful.

Maybe you should get a laptop that can support two HDDs. For my Thinkpad T23, I can buy a "ThinkPad Second HDD Adapter for Ultrabay 2000" for $45. This is the bay that takes either a floppy or optical drive without an adapter.

Very informative reading, thanks Buck.

And not W2k...not that I'm crying, I far prefer Firefox.

Thanks for your thoughtfulness, Gary. I'm a nameless, faceless, nobody. My present avatar (or lack of it) is perfectly appropriate.

Tannin, you're absolutely right on every point about CC (the same thoughts went through my mind as I was reading the article). But look at it this way. NAV is aimed directly at and marketed to the consumer, who doesn't know jack from a virus from a worm from adware. Given that, and if you...

Just how big is the place we live in??

The 2005FPW and 2001FP are at $487 now. How low can they go?!

Thanks, JoJo. Hopefully their US website will show them soon, which would be a good sign.

I don't understand. What are the graphics/press pros going to do now?

Where do you see the P120, CityK? Their USA Web site still shows the P80 as the top of the line.

Because the outputs were rock solid despite significant variation in load, and in spite of sustained heavy loads. I don't remember the details, except that at the time I read the reviews, I decided I'd seriously check this thing out. The other names you've listed don't ring a bell with me.

Mortgage the house! The Eizo ColorEdge CG220 is only about $6.7k street price in the U.S. Tea, Mitsu's web site still shows three 22" CRTs, including a high-end that supports 97.5% of Adobe's color space (street price ~$4.5k). Can you please point me to the source of this news that they're...

No! Tell me it ain't so!!

Thanks, Will.

I've had this problem from day 1, with every version. With some web pages, but happens more with images. When I click on a link (and it either opens in the same tab or in a new one), the entire FF window will resize to a smaller size. This new size can be as small as 2" x 2". Aaaaaaargh! I've...

How about OCZ? I read some glowing reviews at a couple of places (AnandTech?). They go up to 600W, which goes for ~ $207.

How on earth are you going to view the damn thing? Swing your head from side to side like you're watching a game of tennis? :D

That got your attention, didn't it? Actually, this is nothing new. Charlie Cooper rants. It's only noteworthy because an IT hack is publicly berating Symantec and its CEO.

Which controller(s) are you using for that many drives??

Get in line behind me, i.

Whoa! That web page only explains how XP knows what kind of key to expect. You'll have to rip the CD, change the PID, and burn a new CD for the change to take effect (including making the new CD bootable). And I have a feeling that the PID in a standard OEM CD will not be the same as the PID...

My experience matches Blake's. Subtle but important distinctions.

SysInternals has released a RootKitRevealer. Haven't checked it out yet, but for those interested, it can be found here.
