Subject says it all. This was our estimating software last century, and it would be awful nice to get some data out of it. The system (a 450Mhz with 128MB RAM) boots fine, but no one can remember the login details. We aren't even certain about the user name. Help? Thanks!

As do I. But I suppose it depends on the failure rate which is more effective. Considering I've only had a half-dozen bad DIMMs in the last decade it hasn't been worth it for me.

As did I. The one that was most shocking to me was the 2010 recall of thousands of already installed artificial hips.

Was that after the recent update?

This. I've been at a loss to explain how I can have strong opinions about policy and be so unenthusiastic about politics and voting. I don't think there is a single sentence in here that I disagree with. It isn't leaning either way, it just pisses on the whole process. Which is really what I...

I love the way it comes off the line. I can't see not having AWD in all my cars going forward.

That does look interesting.

Nice. "I understand you are trying to use our product in a reasonable and practical way, and that it doesn't work. Don't do that."

The MT review of the 2013 S8 make it sound like an absolute beast. Assuming the S7 is similar...

I'd have to agree. How much of a performance benefit were you seeing with the USB 3.0 vs. the on-board 2.0?

Sounds like a really crappy driver.

I helped a friend the other day hook his S3 to his TV via HDMI and pair a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. He really doesn't need a computer anymore.

And it does snow in my states northern most points. I would still find that thoroughly unacceptable.

Not only do you typically get a guy, but that guy gets a room full of hardware. I used to have a Dell guy, and everything in the room still belonged to Dell, but was an exact copy of everything we had in production. Any failures were directly serviced by him from his parts in his room. He then...

I'd have to agree with that.

Not bad for a laptop, though. Shame it is still only 720P instead of 1080P, that would be awesome.

I am very tempted by the Note 2, but I'll probably just wait until I break the S3 and weasel one out of Verizon. I have a case, but it is incompatible with my car mount, so I don't use it.

My main problem with a fully automated army is that it is only a good hack away from a military coup. Others mention that if no one on our side dies in a war the public won't be opposed. I think the money is enough of a deterrent at this point. The other thing we need to do is get better at...

Nope.

Will this news help you at all?

Troop casualties suck, but they are nothing compared to the cost of a wounded soldier for the rest of their life. I've heard estimates of $1M each. Tomahawks are still stupid expensive in comparison, but UAVs with dumb munitions can be very cost effective.

I was under the impression that the point of wars were to take out or stop the people making the decisions we disagreed with. The only reason we killed all those poor slobs on the way was because we didn't have another method. I'd rather not kill everyone else, and in the process lose many of...

Just another reason to take your external hard drives SSD ;) I forget which SSD it was, but I had a few that had a mini-USB port right on the side next to the SATA port. Very small and portable.

Cool name, awesome ship. More important to me than reducing the number of ships is to massively reduce the number of personnel; I don't think the military (or the population at large) really appreciates how much additional cost each set of "boots on the ground" has over their lifetime. Fewer...

Bad luck. Mine has left my bike at 15mph+ several times and has one minor crack, a couple chips, and a couple scratches...I haven't seen replacement glass on the web yet.

They have places where it doesn't snow?

Yup. That tire is done.

If you don't mind swapping countries, Pokara Nepal is one of my top-5 favorites.

I'm with the rest in expecting it can, however I would recommend just pulling the VM files out to your 7 build and running the 98 VM alongside the XP VM, instead of inside it.

I've only ever seen a bent pin on a product bought at Fry's electronics. And that was on something manhandled by some other customer and then returned. Did the board have the black plastic protector clipped over the socket? I wouldn't accept one without that. It also sounds like the entire...

Ouch. Remind me what size wheel you got again? I've hit quite a few rocks and the like on my 18"s without issue.

I have a bunch of the "horizontal" heatsinks. One of the thoughts against them is that the components around the CPU on the motherboard could use some cooling themselves (MOSFETS, other power handling bits, RAM, etc). So lately I've been going with larger top-down designs myself. Of course...

On a loose surface I can get the back end out quite a ways without disabling ESC at all. Have you tried that?

Unless you plan on continuous max load I wouldn't worry about it. How high will the ambient get?

Yeah, but this centered a ways down the valley. All it did was remind me to tighten the bolts on the bed frame.

Next time I build a monster rig I might hold on to it for a little bit just to give you a scare ;)

As a manufacturer? A bunch. Not much name recognition, but they were a massive OEM.

The problem with the RS5 and a kid on the way is no back doors. So an S7 is more likely. Of course I would prefer the practicality of an S6 Avant, but they have taken away that option for the more stylish and higher margin 7. I think that the driving simulators in the garage have helped stem...

Yeah...snow tires, what an interesting idea. 80F here all last week. I'm now drooling over the RS5. I've never considered tracking my car, but now you have me thinking about it. With Laguna Seca about 10 miles away...

Yup, multiple users at different times. And some of the laptops are not USB3.0. I ended up getting the Pluggable solution, I hope to get it installed Monday.

I think the part about not burning up that hasn't been brought up is mass. The only reason heat would build up is if there is enough energy in the system to push through the resistance of the air and in giving up this energy as heat. The energy can only come from increased mass or increased...

Taking this rare opportunity to record that my desk was once clean.

Indeed. And he was General Secretary of the Communist Party.

I don't even think you'll need to import to make it work. With all that hassle I'd just run it.

Ah, passphrase, not password. Got it. Yes, you are generous with your time.

90% of the time when I get that call I give them the default for their hardware and it works.

Remote desktop is your friend...just config the RAID cards after it starts up.

YouTube is presently down, so we can expect GDP to double in the next few hours...

Nope. And I have a bunch of calendars running and haven't visited the app since last reboot.
