The problem with moving to on-die memory controllers is that it is then up to AMD to crank out new versions that support newer/better performing memory tech. So the onus of upgrading becomes the replacement of the cpu, rather than the mobo. As long as AMD continue to innovate things should be fine.

If you are going for .a, get a dual or tri mode (.a and .b) so that you can use it when you leave your home and venture outside to hotspots, T-mobile hotspot etc are all .b Of course this leaves you with the dilemna of paying $100+ for a PC Card, when you payed just $300 for the whole laptop. I...

Fortunately the wireless cards aren't pumping out hundred of watts into your crotch like a microwave oven could! If you want to use b/g and are worried about cordless phone interference, you could always use 5.8GHz cordless phones (tho apprently some systems use 5.8GHz to receive and 2.4GHz to...

It doesn't.

Yes I'm now looking at something like this: http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=10333315&loc=101 A lot cheaper as well. Shame I'll have to have a dildo sitting on top of my duallie :mrgrn: There doesn't seem to be any combo switch/routing .11a boxes available.

dpreview.com has three 5MP reviews out today. The Sony DSC-V1 looks pretty good for a small compact. G5 has fantastic battery life. For a D-SLR the Canon 10D looks like good value for money, let's hope that the 1Ds comes down in price over the next year, allowing everyone to enjoy 35mm full...

Thanks Merc. Any special config needed, or is it all plug and pray? I guess when it sees a private IP addy on the input, it just routes out other private addresses?

Evening everybody. I need to share my dial-up Internet connection wirelessly, and was wondering if those Linksys/D-link etc products that route a broadband Ethernet connection wirelessly can also be used if I hooked up the broadband input port into an ICS shared dial-up connection? The reason...

Oops, I should have said ADS iBot, the Pyro is the FW enclosure.

12 guage, 10 guage is too heavy for me to carry in the field all day. Got a very tight turkey barrel and a slug barrel for deer.

4 drives in RAID 0 and all you can get is 110MB/sec? ;) Perhaps it's time for some Fujistus at close to 80MB/sec each. Is that using the ATTO controller? Been doing any big game hunting recently? I was experimenting with 3.5" magnum shotshells back in turkey season, quite a handful.

I have owned the ADS Pyro Firewire webcam for a while now, excellent results, but it must have a 6 pin connection (for power). So PC laptop use is out of the question. ADS also make a USB 2 version.

Ooops, sorry I only just properly read your post and saw you only needed one for appearance in the news story.

Yes pathetic I know. :D But for sites such as SR and SF that don't scale font size, it is a must.

Apparently the Canon 1Ds D-SLR compares quite well with MF film.

$1400 for a 21" LCD? Seems excessive: Dell Home has the Planar 20" PL201M 1600x1200 Digital LCD for $949 - auto 10% off - $35 off $300 code B5F1D0FE7960 = $819 with free shipping (item A0055651). Features include 500:1 Contrast ratio, 25ms response time, 170 degree H/V viewing angle, 250 cd/m2...

Hmm I see they have analog audio in/out back. Apple never compare Macs to AMD processors, it's better for them to show Intel losing, than AMD winning. Still an amazing advance from the days when Apple was stuck at what, 450MHz for 9 months? Shipment date for the 1.8GHz system is August...

Personally I don't want any server side spam filtering by my ISP. If it's an option, fine, but don't make it compulsary. That way I don't lose important emails that some AI program decides must be pRon or somesuch.

Very impressive Tea. Imagine what a peeping tom could do with such a setup. :mrgrn: BTW, the uncompressed TIFF setting that must be taking the full 16MB is pretty hardcore, I find that JPEG-Fine delivers excellent results without taking extreme amounts of storage space.

Oops, version 2.3

I'm having some problems with 2003 Server Enterprise. Several times now I enter my username/pwd and the desktop comes up, but it's not responsive. CTRL+ALT+DEL brings up the security window, and CTRL+SHFT+ESC brings up the task manager. But I can't kill the explorer.exe process. ANyway if I...

Did you get the 20-60x eyepiece?

Nice choice on the Swarovski Tony, brilliant optics. They make great hunting scopes.

I recently bought a 256MB SimpleTech CF card, and it is faster in operation on my CP995 than the 1GB Microdrive. I guess I'll just have to get a camera that is better optimised for the Microdrive. :) Did you get rid of your Sony Tony?

Thanks honold. Tony would have no probs competing with Dell in Australia, because they don't have the incredible deals that they run in the USA. Just have a look at the Software&Periphs site at www.dell.com.au It's pathetic. In Aus the same config of 600sc is going for AUD$999, around US$666...

The problem with current option of dual Athlons is that the MP and MPx chipsets deliver turdy mem bandwidth, compared to the single CPU chipsets now available (nFarce2, etc). So for mem intensive stuff, dual Athlons really won't help much. Things should get much better with Opteron/Athlon 64...

Do all the P4 533 based 600SCs have the Serverworks mobo with gigabit ethernet? I can get the 2.4 for $399 today, with the $100 MIR to make $299+tax. I guess I should wait for one of the better deals on the 1600SC models.

Encrypting File System. i.e you have encrypted your directories and/or whole disk. Chances are if you don't know what it is, you aren't using it. If you are using it, you need to backup your private key and move it to the other computer. If you don't, and you hose your Windows install, your...

Assuming you haven't enabled EFS. You may have to "import" the disk via Disk Management.

All the better to hit them with a high velocity projectile.

LOL, actually SR/SF look fine at UXGA on the Dell 2000FP (20"). I just use the laptop for email/IM etc when at home.

I got a 160GB DM9 the other day. Doesn't seem to make much noise, it's in an external FW/USB2 enclosure. Can't hear much over the dual Delta 7000rpms tho.

I have a pair of 172W TEC's, finding a switching power supply for them at an affordable price is not a simple task.

If you aren't running as a service, then just start up two instances, win2k/XP etc will assign one client to each CPU. Setting affinity has no real advantage in performance, and you would have to set it each time you started the FAH client. I have noticed however when running four instances...

Apparently not, but in the license agreement, it mentions that the rights holder could terminate at anytime. It's like a mini-EULA. It does set a disturbing precedent. Oh yeah, and the DRM rights are "upgraded" during the license retrieval process, whatever that means.

I forgot to mention that WMP is using about 450MB of mem :) Time to buy a new machine I think, too many dropped frames. I could upgrade the cpus to some MP2400+'s, but I'm worried that me Tyan 2460 mobo will burn out the PSU connector headers.

OK, I got the Extreme Edition Bonus disc. The video is at 1440 x 816. 6790Kbps encoding rate. Takes 6.5GB of space. Pretty sttutery on my pee4 1.6GHz laptop. Still trying to get the POS running on the dual XP1700. Won't accept that I have a DVD codec installed (I don't on 2003, I just use a...

If that was an 80pin I would buy it immediately. Right now that's the only space I have left.

Thanks lads. Yes all the Bud and other local crap is all here. Currently I'm imbibing Harp (from the brewers of Guiness). Not a bad drop. Though I always find myself going into a liquor store here before remembering that they don't sell beer! Urghh, how confusing is that! At least last week...

A dentist would be one who deals with general dental surgery. An orthodontist would be one who specialises in braces etc. A fair bit of training to become one, but pays extremely well.

Actually chicken sexers in Australia make mucho $$$.

For minute there Jake I thought you said chicken vegetarian :o Only really famous guy I met was Arthur C Clark on a plane about 15 years ago, got his autograph and then left it behind, doh! Mmmmm, Chasey. I would rather have met her on the plane....

Well I was only there for about an hour before my next connection, unfotunately that was delayed about 45 mins, then when we were all on the plane and taxiing to the runway, all East bound takeoffs were shutdown due to weather and we went and parked out in the middle of nowhere for about 1.25...

And that's 4000 extra frequent flier miles (100% PLT bonus :) )

Acutally it was a stopover on the way to the USA. Cheaper to fly MEL->NRT->ORD than directly via SFO/LAX. Crazy stuff, but who can argue with the $$$.

Well the system is also used for home theatre, and the TDL's don't do much below 35Hz at sufficient trouser flapping volume. I have an HSU VTF-2 sub which is OK, but lacking in that final octave. I got the TDL's and Counterpoint second hand a few years ago, didn't have a big plan back then. I...

Oh yeah, there were a bunch of retail WD Raptors in the case too, but at $250 I couldn't justify it (espceially since I already have a SCSI controller).

No matter, picked up a Maxtor DM Plus 160GB drive from CompUseless yesterday. $169 and a $70 mail in rebate. Slipped it into an ADS Dual Link enclosure and life is good.
