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.

That feedback was valuable, Buck, thanks for posting it. I'm no Mr. HawkEye myself, and have often wondered if I could tolerate 1600x1200 on a 20". This kind of real-world feedback is so invaluable. I wonder about the Dell 1905, though.

You're all falling for it, taking the bait.

David, I don't think you're being cynical, I think you're being realistic. I think that's what will happen too, that's why I'm so into alternative enrgies. In a year or two, I'll be spending a lot of my time and efforts into becoming more sef-reliant in every way possible. All the "leaders" -...

I'm chipping in late, didn't read the links in this post, and am not a gamer. But what I know is that for games, CPU cache size makes little difference. Clock speed is king.

Ditto. Thanks for an absolutely fantastic post, jtr. Very lucid, hits home really hard. Many of the posts I make are with the intention to produce a healthy debate, and I really, really love it when that happens! More than anything else, what gets my juices flowing are alternative energies and...

As usual, the eloquent Tannin verbalizes easily what many of us struggle to crystallize and express.

Fascinating! Looks like you have a new business in the pipeline!

Thanks, myself and Platform. I multiboot two Windows variants on my main system (have been for ~ 6 years, so I'm not new to the idea). In the past, I've tried multibooting different OSes on my spare machines, and have sometimes had horrendous results. I guess I'll tread a middle path now; buy...

Well, i, the top cover for product in the link you provided is "screw" less, so I'm ruling it out :lol: No bud, I'm not into pr0n. I want to try various OSes (my recent thread in Tech Support ). It'd be a lot easier to swap drives in and out. I have two systems I hardly use and a few smallish...

I'm thinking of buying a whole ton (2 racks, 7 carriers) of the Kingwin KF-21 family. Any comments, or reasons I shouldn't? Thanks.

I'm really sorry, time :oops: ! I know this is not a valid excuse, but the system is in a hard to reach place, and I didn't want to mess with it unless I had to. I could have sworn it was the Matrox, and I was dead wrong. I hardly think the ATI Radeon is an obscure card? The NIC is an SMC...

I wiped out SuSe and installed Mandrake 10.1. I'm really, really impressed. It detected everything on the first try. Sees to processors (yea!). Configured the NIC automatically (on the internet in no time at all). Display is perfect. I opted for both Gnome and KDE during install, and am messing...

Well, I'm glad to know I'm not the only one. It's installed now, but the display sucks big time. I've got the rez. etc. done, but the display quality is horrid. Sorta like a CGA screen. I can see big gaps between each pixel that makes up a letter. Don't know what the prob is; nosed around...

Well, what do you know. As soon as I would make a selection of the installation type, the display would switch from graphic install to console mode. I replaced the video card (I lied, by the way. It was an old Trident PCI) with a first-gen ATI Radeon AGP 32MB. I also made sure the BIOs was...

Looks like they're an IP (pun intended) only company. Like Rambus. Which certainly makes money, despite their ups and downs and questions of propriety. David, it's certainly not hot down here. Why are you giys so negative? Granted, this may turn out to be vaporware. But if it is true, and...

Thanks for the reply, time. After downloading, I did check the MD5 hashes, matched perfectly. EZ DVD Cremator 7, which is what I have right now for burning, does not seem to have a way to verify that a disc was burned correctly. I did burn two copies (just to be sure), and both copies behave...

All jesting aside, is Buck the only one that appreciates the significance of this event? No matter, it was worth sharing if it made even just one person ponder about this universe.

They're a very new outfit. You can read a little more about them here.

I decided to follow thru on Merc's recommendation re. Suse. Downloaded it, burned a DVD, but install won't go thru. System boots DVD, shows the following install choices (among others): Each of these options produces the same result. The screen scrolls by quickly, then at one point, everything...

Bozo, I was waiting for someone to make the comment you made :lol: I think it's clear that Windows is way more vulnerable than Linux is. Hopefully, Linux won't degenerate. The AS/400 is one heck of a platform. I have never understood why the geniuses at IBM keep it hidden in a closet.

Microsoft on 'rootkits': Be afraid. Be very afraid. Linux looks more attractive everyday.

Yeah, I really liked Friday, too. It's been eons since I read it though. Creative MuVo TX 512MB Mp3 Player $106 at Buy.com

A trip down memory lane! I have one, maybe two of these boards in storage somewhere. Processor and matching RAM (that worked with the board) as well. If you're interested, I can try to find them for you. If you need the manual in PDF, and the last BIOS updates released, let me know, I'll email...

Gee, that's odd. I remember every mfr. saying memory had to be added in pairs. * shrug*

I've had good experiences with SIIG, bad with SYBA. Koutech seems to be a low-end brand, from what I've seen in stores. If I had to buy one of these, it'd be a SIIG. But $42 seems horrenduously expensive to pay for a serial port card. As time says, these are pretty simple. I've paid ~$15 for a...

Good idea, Buck. What's a BC vehicle? In related news, Australian Noah's Ark Program Combats Cane Toad. They're trying to fix another ecological experiment gone bad. Those cane toads are amazingly poisonous.

I saw a program on Animal Planet once where a South American man was bitten by a venomous snake (can't remember which one) in the foot. Necrosis set in, and his leg had to be amputated at the knee. I'm 100% with David - death doesn't scare me, but life and pain do. I'm a weemp.

I'm not a gamer, but still enjoyed reading the story.
