    I had some visitors this morning...

    We just had 4 doe and what I'd guess to be a two year old buck walking though this eveinng (about 8:30PM). They stuck around about 45minutes just munchin away on what they could find in the field just behind my house. They're getting to be quite regular visitors. I'll have to start throwing...

    Raptors really worth it?

    This arguement kind of falls apart given that SR so strongly recommends against using RAID-0. By doing that, they're not really pushing people to buy more cheap drives from their sponsor. If SR was in WD's or Hypermicro's, or Hitachi's back pocket (as implied) I think they would recommend...

    16:9 vs. 4:3 Format for New HDTV

    Thanks. THat guide looks pretty informative. I'll be going through it. I'll probably end up with the 36" standard set as it is cheaper than the 34" wide screens {it seems}.. C

    I didn't see this option but I think it is because most don't update their virus signatures. I don't think it is a 'punishment' by Symantec. I think it is simply a lack of updating (whether the subscription is still 'good' or not). Then, most people never pay to update their subscription...

    16:9 vs. 4:3 Format for New HDTV

    Hi guys- I'm mulling over the purchase of a new HDTV (CRT). I'm trying to decide if I should get a wide-screen unit (16:9) or a standard size (4:3). From what I'm seeing, the biggest 16:9 set I'll find that will fit my entertainment center is a 34" while the biggest 4:3 set is a 36". If you...

    Justified?

    I'd say, if you expect to not go to work but want to get paid, use a vacation day. I don't think it is right to lie to your employer about being sick (especially if you get paid for sick days, like I do). If you don't have vacation time, ask for a day off without pay for 'personal' reasons...

    [NEWS] - Nvidia goes for Nforce 4

    Looks like this chipset will have enough going on in it to get me to jump on the bandwagon with one of the new AMD CPUS. I like the fact that it takes all those different CPUs so I can gradually play around with the stuff. I guess this fall I can give my Radeon 9500@9700 to my brother-in-law...

    I need a new TV

    Adcadet- If you still plan on 'time-shifting' your viewing with a VCR, I would not bother spending much on a TV..the VHS signal is going to suck anyway. But, if use TIVO or DVDs a lot, I can see spending some extra $ on a nicer TV (maybe even with HD). JMO C

    Merc- IIRC, the one you are referring to is a Linksys WRT54G. Just wanted to clairify that incase JTR wanted to know which model to avoid. I'm not aware of any issues like you described on the Netgear 54g routers. C

    Suggestions for hooking up cable internet

    I disagree with Tea. You can get a 802.11g dual channel 108mbps wireless router with 4 10/100 ports for as little as $37. A Smoothwall is not worth all the set-up hassel and lost reliability, IMO. Plus the extra space and power that it takes up is another negative.

    Also, with regard to disabling the network connection, you can create a shortcut to the lan connection to put on your desktop so that it is easily renabled after you disable it as Merc mentioned. It's easier that going into the network connections panel and then re-enabling it. Another...

    Suggestions for hooking up cable internet

    I've been really happy with Wideopenwest. But, you may want to just buy a router with wireless capability and see if there are any idiots in your building that are unknowingly sharing their internet connections. THAT would be cheaper. :roll: IIRC, you're in an apartment?? C
