It certainly is Doug. :mrgrn:

I have an HP 48GX that my dog mistook for a chew toy :cry:

Not yet, right now the season is only open for bowhunters, the regular season starts in about 3 weeks. The deer here are big, and there is massive overpopulation., which leads many to die from starvation. Lot's of people driving into them, can cause a lot of damage, not to mention deaths when...

Interesting. Do you know what revision your mobo is? Mine is 1.2 I switched to a D-Link and it works just fine.

Well I had two FA311's, and on my TYAN TigerMP, the use of either would cause only one CPU to be detected, followed by a POST screen f###-up. You will note that I used the term 760MP :) I contacted Netgear support and they said they would exchange for FA310's. I ended up selling both to someone...

The Netgear 311 is a shite card, it has known compatibility probs with AMD machines, the 760MP chipset in particular. The 310 is the Tulip based card, much better compatibility (tho apparently not supported under .Net Server)

In upstate NY, till the end of the deer season :mrgrn:

I'm currently in the States.

I received my "collectors edition" with baseball and chewing gum today.

The dpreview.com printer forum talks about the potent fumes/smell emanating from the Epson 2200 and it's ilk. Can't be good for you.

I agree Tony, Sum of All Fears is one of his best. The movie is quite good too, tho it can't compare to the imagination in this case. To think that if the guy who was building the bomb wasn't killed early, World War III would have begun. And the tank battle in the streets of Germany. Fantastic!

The carriers can indeed cruise around for a couple of years flat out, the problems is that most of the escort ships that comprise a carrier battle group are still gas powered, and therefore need to be supplied on route.

For stats go here: http://www.statsman.org/folding2stats/10047.html Did you put in a name? If so, it will appear a few hours after your first result is sent back to Stanford.

Anything by Matthew Reilly for pure action. The new Tom Clancy is OK, not as good as his previous ones tho IMHO. Tony, have you seen the LOTR movie? It is very good.

You pay me $50 dollars and I will take it off your weary hands.

Well given that the link is on a Symantec domain with certificate I highly doubt it is an ebil haXor wanting your details. Also the confirmation email is from Symantec.

Yes Not for Resale I have no idea. I assume it's for integrators to try out and perhaps purchase for their clients machines.

Will it ever be possible to change the font size of the whole page (ie with IE text size option?) My poor eyes get a bit tired looking at this site on a 15" UXGA screen :)

It really screws with the 802.11 reception. Range is pathetic compared to the other Mac laptops.

If the OEM copy is otherwise identical to the retail copy, then what is the problem? Nero have got the money for their OEM copy, and your client gets a version of Nero that actually works on his drive. Morally you can sleep soundly at night.

Aaargh! If they fix the frigging F@H servers so they could take my results and give me new work I would be much more productive. 4 clients waiting for data...... the laptop goes so slow it can run a couple of days without connecting.

The word on the street is that his mangina is the finest money can buy :o

I believe you can run the ACPI Multiprocessor PC HAL with one or more CPU's. It's when you try and switch from Standard to ACPI HAL that Windows will shit itself.

Anything here is in the public domain. I don't think there will be any probs. If you like, just have a quick note somewhere noting the usernames of the people you got info from.

Is it registered?

Bugbear is no different from many other viruses, people still have to be stupid enough to run the .scr, .exe, .pif etc. Though if they are running an elderly version of OE/Outlook, then the auto preview could infect them automagically. Outlook 2002 by default will not let you open an executable...

I have a Cox 12HP ride-on (with Briggs&Stratton) and it has been working fine since 1990, cutting about 4 acres of hilly lawn. The electric start died a few years ago but it starts with the pull cord first up everytime, so no probs there. And the seat safety switch doesn't do it's job, but it...

What camera are you using to take pictures of the camera?

Just for comparison: "TigerDirect has a great price on this combo. Includes the Canon A200 2-MegaPixel Digital Camera, Canon S520 Color Bubble Jet Printer, and the slim Canon CanoScan N676U Scanner, all for $300 + shipping." from bensbargains.net

If the app you require is running all the time, perhaps you would be better off removing one of the CPUs?

In hosting terms, a parked domain is usually one that "shares" the same IP as another domain you have (a "virtual domain"). A virtual domain has it's own IP address. If you have several domain names that you just want to point to a .com for example, you can have the others parked on your virtual...

For noisy industrial environments, coaxial network topology is best. Sure you won't get 100Mbit/sec, but the signal will get thru.

Of course Microdrive is a fair bit more fragile, mine lives on a velvet cushion when not in the camera ;)

I'm happy with my i8200 (p4 1.6, 384MB ddr, 32mb gf4 440, 15" ultrasharp, 8x combo drive, 40gb) That is an excellent price for that spec. Perhaps a pricing error, I would order one right away. Honestly the p4 is a such a slow POS FPU wise, that a 2GHz is definitely not worth the premium over...

You can use any composite video cable for the SP/DIF.

Well if you want the best then the ATI 9700 Pro is the best money can buy, far superior to the Gayfarce4 Ti 4600. Personally I am waiting for this: http://www.ati.com/products/pc/aiw9700pro/index.html Dual TV tuners! Oh yes, it will be mine.

Yes I have UXGA on a 15" laptop LCD too. Looks great. The point being that an LCD has a fixed native resolution, and a number of pixels to match. Whereas a CRT tube does not have discrete pixels, when you run it at a higher resolution than it is physically capable of displaying you are going to...

Duallie is back on-line for approx 12 hours per day (far too noisy to run when sleep is being attempted). F###ing Deathstar 45GB fell over, killing my win2k bootup. Now booting off one of the X15-36LPs, all IDE HDDs disconnected.

Sadly my Nikon 995 only recognises FAT16. But apparently the newest breed of D-SLR have FAT32 support for >2GB Microdrives :)

Once I've downloaded, I just format the Microdrive in the camera. I find this is far faster than deleting all images. Actually I had 32KB of bad clusters the other day, a chkdsk and scandisk marked them as bad and now it seems to be working OK, only lost one picture.

I find the biggest problem with transferring hundreds of pics from Microdrive via USB is that it sucks the batteries dry pretty quick. For large transfers I use a PC Card adaptor, it's a little quicker as well.

UXGA on a 19" CRT monitor is going to look like crap no matter what it is. 1280*960 is prob optimum resolution.

There was a bit on TV about it a while back, Amazing Machines or some such. I think the "Freedom ship will sit out from port, given the massive draft, and shuttle boats will take people ashore. Since typhoons only get really bad closer to the coast it could be OK. OK forget what I said, I was...

Hmm I guess that was in 1996, amazing how time flies.

Very interesting James, I guess the cost of routing the call to India is far less than the cost of paying an Australian to answer the phone. A friend of mine used to work in the call centre for I believe Vodaphone in Hobart a few years ago.

My card has been charged, all systems go :)

From bensbargains.com: "Basically follow their instructions on how to register, and then order your copy for $40 + $9 shipping = $49 shipped. You also get a baseball and some Big League Chew bubble gum." http://members.microsoft.com/partner/campaign/Winpro2.aspx

True, but their workstations/servers aren't bad. We shall have to wait and see :)

It will be interesting to see what Dell brings to the market. It has chosen Lexmark as it's supplier, ditching HP, and will soon have it's own line of Dell branded printers. If they can provide good value in inkjet carts they could really put the pressure on Epson, Canon and HP.
