It isn't that hard to use unless your other, previously installed BT client keep hijacking the file association.

I still have the sound card, depends on what you mean by "normal". If your amp takes SPDIF or TOSLINK, then yes. If it takes RCA, you'll need a bunch of 1/8" to RCA adapters ($3 ea @ Radioshack).

Some KVM switches have a USB port on them. Sticking a hub on that and all your peripherals off that is the best way. Some devices have issues with this, and I've never tried it with a Wacom.

It depends. I can drop $20k for the main office, where 250+ people use the web and all the remote site VPNs connect. Some of the remote locations only have 2 people selling sand (literally) or 5 people renting out porta-potties (seriously). In order to keep these locations profitable, some...

I can VPN through a Tomato'd router, but it cannot be the VPN gateway for a site-site link. DD-WRT can, but doesn't support the protocols I'm looking for.

I think he's paying $350/mo.

I just upgraded a client to the 50/10 Comcast service. It actually clocked in at more than that, with a 17ms ping to their other offices. Very sweet.

Interested?

That sucks. I've been having my own issues with them. Tomato has no VPN capability at all, and DD-WRT doesn't support a mode compatible with my FatPipe. FatPipes suggestion? Buy more FatPipes @ $20k/each.

I think I'm good, thanks ;)

It is reverting because you haven't changed your file type association.

74 Lumen / Watt at respectable power levels (7400 Lumens, 100 Watts) Gotta get me some of these...

Why are you ending your internet access?

I've just left them all at defaults. I was mucking about for a while, and didn't see any that stood out (>10% difference). Even the Raptors can manage 250MB/s...so I think my storage is up to the task. Most of my photo editing stuff is now CPU locked again (stupid lack of multithreading).

More stable isn't good enough? It should be as fast as the rest.

The BMW had a blemish on the rear bumper. She was on with her insurance before she even got out of her car. It's going to up her rates too, so it was not the smartest thing she could have done.

I don't understand what you are saying here? I suspect that it is much more than twice as fast. Keep in mind that I'm keeping my RAM clocked at 1066Mhz to keep it stable at faster timings.

Thirded.

I've just been really busy lately. My wife managed to drive the Audi into a BMW. Not even enough for any damage, just enough to raise our premium :(

Created a trial account and downloading now. Is there a benchmark set in there?

We'll have to get some benches of your 4870x2/i7/Intel SSD RAID-0 against my GTX295/i7/Intel SSD RAID-0 ;)

Yes?

Nothing exceptional (x2), there seem to be major limits on OCs with this much RAM.

Will this do? Windows dynamic disk striped using defaults.

It is called image stacking. There are programs out there made to do specifically that (very common in astophotography). In theory, stacking layers in PS should work, but I haven't gotten good results that way.

Still no 1080P. And remote control via WiFi is getting more important for me now. Looks like a need a 5DII again.

It can vary quite a bit depending on what moonlighting projects I can get. But some of the toys are for work, and there I have a more substantial budget.

Yup.

For the record, it isn't recognized in the Acer. I'll try it in my Asus R2H...

Granted, it does cost more than the netbook and all the upgrades I've already done (RAM, BT) combined, but boot time is the most important thing for a netbook. Hopefully this will cut boot time in half, the stock SSD is painfully slow.

Screen is great, battery looks good. I wish it took 4GB of RAM. I'm currently benching one of these as a potential upgrade for my Aspire One.

Another thing to keep in mind, the signal is digital, so cable length is irrelevant. Don't worry about putting them next to each other.

I haven't had any time to check. Just let me know what you would like to see and I'll do it.

Don't go SLI (or as it is called with ATI cards, crossfire). Compatibility and driver issues are simply not worth it. Another thing to realize is that you are going to be lucky to get 800x600 resolution out of an S-Video cable. That card will play all games really well at 800x600. A 9600GT is...

I'm taking advantage of the fact that all our branches will be closed tomorrow (one of 3 days a year) to do some major work on the WAN links. Funny how a bunny that lays acid-trip eggs gets everyone off work.

NOD32 is the best antivirus I know of, but it doesn't stop everything. If someone was using IE, all bets are off.

I don't remember if that motherboard has SPDIF or TOSLINK out? If it does, hook that up to your receiver and forget about it. If it doesn't, I have one of Merc's favorite cards sitting around (Auzentech X-Plosion). Pretty much as good as it gets.

I am enjoying my RAID-0 of 2x 32GB X25-Es. If you want to get the 64, I'll take the 32 off your hands ;)

Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 Intel i7 @ 3.8Ghz 12GB DDR3 @ 1066 (triple channel mode) XP-x64

Are you going to store media on this machine? Or elsewhere on your network? Other than that, quiet would be the other goal. You have enough processing power to do whatever you need, just start swapping out bits with quieter ones. 10k SCSI disks are almost certainly too noisy, even installing the...

Close enough. I was hoping to get all the way to a standard 40-Pin IDE, but I can swing it with a second adapter. Thanks.

If someone saves a file directly on the desktop, it doesn't matter where "My Docs" is.

I'm looking for something exactly like this. Does anyone know where I could buy one? A google for the model number or basic description returns nothing. Thanks!

I like the color and composition in those pictures, but they are too small for me to appreciate much.

My only thought would be that if it had failed to detect the Program Files partition and defaulted, the must be a mess of registry keys that it autogenerated for the default location.

You need to be signed in to OK the age requirement. It really isn't bad, it could be on TV without issue.

Thanks Merc, that helped my day.

A decent motherboard that is compatible with a Dell Optiplex?

Sorry, never bought it.

Wow, that really does look like a short-stroked 2TB drive. Cool.
