I really like double the speed, and half the voltage of the 4770 and 4770K....;-) DD,. you ARE the best. gs

Any deals on UPS's would be great. Both the APC and .... went south, at 8 years and 10 years....

Work2: i7-4770, 32GB RAM, 840 Pro 512GB, 3x 3TB, 2x Titan, GA-G1.SNIPER 5, H100i, AX1200i Hint, Hint, Hint. Does this run gmail and 7 or 8 ok? Web? Plus you didn't say what OS? Seriously: If I was to pick a cpu right now it, would be this one, or the 4770K. Let me know what's blown up...

It's not that the phone is too big to sit down with. It's that if you need to get it out, it's difficult to get out of your pocket.

I went with the Samsung Mega. Huge battery, and most of the time lasts the day, or close. Use it constantly for driving information, music player, and phone, with a headset. Have to try your mounting setup. Great to be able to pull up the websites, and assignments for work, not to mention my...

Samsung.

Even with SSD's in both machines, and respectable old cpus, file transfers are so slow it's painful. If the old business requires moving fairly good sized files, it would be a real incentive to move up to 7 or 8..

Sounds like my house... The Beast, which DD is working on, is down. I've had to move to move the HTPC in, and I'm now doing my business stuff on it. I kept the HTPC on XP3 because of a lack of drivers in 7 for the sound card and printer. I do understand why people keep XP around. Some of the...

You are right. My mistake.

Second Wolverine movie was ok...

Wasn't L in the second book?

The first and last Dell I bought had a motherboard that would support only one ide drive per channel, when the standard was two per channel. Took 6 months to finally figure it out, and only because of repeated calls to Dell, and finally finding a guy that knew what he was doing. Likewise...

Would anyone be able to quantify the difference in file transfer between 7 and 8? I think Tannin has an excellent point, in that Windows 8 means I will NOT be buying any computer with it installed. While I get the wanting to have a computer like a phone, shouldn't it be the phone more like the...

Thanks GS

One of the considerations I've had is getting a laptop with a faster processor, and to be able to take advantage of the faster SATA bus. However, with the even a IDE Kingspec SSD, the hard drive performance is fast enough so I don't think it's the bottle neck: Ethernet speed transfers are in...

I agree. The drives are slow by current standards: I think to really be able to tell any difference I would have to increase data transfer by something incredible, like this: Be honest I can't really tell the difference between one old Vertex Turbo 3 and the X-25M's in Raid O. How much...

I'm trying to figure out if it's worth buying into MSFT's integration of 8, on phone, laptop, and my home machine. I have a very hard time believing I'd be able to notice the difference between 7 and 8 on the i7 940, home machine. I don't think it would be compatible with the hardware in my...

Has anyone worked with the Cloud features of windows 8, on multiple platforms? From my reading, that might be the only reason to use it.

He's a beauty. We have them all over around here. They soar, and pick off whatever is in the long, dry grass. Never had one on the porch railing, however. Had foxes, skunks, deer, and a mountain lion, but that's all. I forgot: we have a BUNCH of turkeys and geese that live on the golf course...

redtail Hawk?

Oddly, one of our forum members believes the ide option to be more stable then AHCI. Considering I have dual X-25s in raid zero, and it's been going a long time, he seems to be right. Not slow, either.

I keep looking for something with a modern processor, bus, ram, and ethernet connection, read cable. I think I bought the CF-51 in about 2000, picked up another one 4 years ago with a dual core processor, gigabyte ethernet, a big deal for what I use it for, higher resolution screen, and not much...

What do you think of this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834311865 I like the price, and the processor...What kind of data transfer rate might one get, using this and ethernet Cat 6? gs

Similar to this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyR_Mtb720g Someone wanted to find out how strong, and smart a gorilla is. So, they took super thick packing cardboard, wrapped and tapped a HUSKED coconut inside, and threw it in to the gorilla. The gorilla rattled the box to his ear(...

27 this morning, again. It's getting old. 3-4 layers of clothes to do laundry????

Stripper?;-)

29 again at 8 am . How hum. It's getting common and loosing it's novelty.

28 @ 8am. Offshore. Surfing anyone?

Bloody Hell! It's 30 degrees at 9:53 PM! Wind is from the NorthEast. It's already freezing, so it's going to go REALLY low tonight.

Thank you. We'll see how this goes. I tend to like MKV so far, and ANYDVD HD.

ClownBD? Haven't been able to find a copy, or a location. Comments seem to be that it's perfect for getting just the movie and menus, and, it was designed for external players. Not exactly what I had in mind, but might work.

Anyone used C3 or C6? Do they work with 7's current updates?

Thanks. Downloading MakeMKV right now. Has anyone tried PowerIso, or IsoBuster? MakeMKV works better then AnyDVD?

SD: I was really wondering what others are using, and how they are doing it. To answer your questions: So you plan to burn them to BD-R and watch them on a stand alone player? Or watch discs from a HTPC? My neighbor does the above. Since my girlfriend is taking care of a terminal cancer...

This morning riding a bike, at least in our area, puts you in the 6 degree wind chill area. Since yours was a tropical 33 degrees, it was only about 15 degrees on a bike. I did think about you this morning when I saw a frosted golf course out the front window.

26 @ 6:30 AM. Cold offshore wind. Old Wind chill Index 11 degrees New 16 degrees. Pretty close to record lows.

Tannin: Transferring data is something I do a bit of. What kind of numbers do you get speed wise, using Windows 8 vs. 7? Inquiring minds would like to know...

Hi I'm wondering how people are reducing their Bluray disks for storage? One of the reasons here is the price differential for 25 gig vs. 50 gig Bluray disks. A lot of movies are under 25 Gigs, but, with all the bundled previews they come in at 40 gigs, or more. So: What software have you...

29 at 5 am. Was supposed to hit 25.

AS for the LED's and mini-flors: the leds emit less light, but project it a bit better, in a clear, more focused direction. This works great for most ceiling mounted fixtures, since I want the light pointing down, not lighting the ceiling. With the old popcorn ceiling it eats light, due to it's...

The home is electric. Less dishwashing, more hand washing of dishes, using hot water that is on a constant, fixed billing, less use of electric heat, more spot electric head. Different roommate. Oddly this guy is home all the time, unemployed right now, but not as wasteful. He does cook a LOT...

LM: Where exactly on that map are you? It's 29 degrees here @ 1 AM. Ice on the cars. Yesterday driving at 9 AM hillsides are still frosted over. Unusual. Surfing tomorrow, anyone?

31 degrees at 5 AM. Time to dress for it, and get to work.

I'm looking at the PG&E bill. Keep in mind last year this time I had standard light bulbs, used the dish washer all the time, and used the central heating. It was warmer, IIRC, last year. I was also running the Beast 24/7 using 100% processor power, and folding at home. So last year: Billed for...

It's 32 degrees @ 8:43 am. That's REALLY cold for us.

MS paint works for the basic stuff, though the controls seem really funky, and cleaning up slight out of focus or movement caused blur I can't find. It's almost like they hide all the controls to make stuff harder to find.

Now you all have me thinking. Anyone know why 7 lists Photoshop 7 as not compatible? Is it this memory issue? I looked through the linked stuff from MSFT and it wasn't helpful. I don't often use Photoshop, but I'm used to having it around. It also worked fine until one of the new 'updates'...

Hi Anyone have a software package that works with Windows 7 that does basic photo cropping and editing, without having to put an Adobe product on my computer? Free is always good. Thanks in advance. GS
