    My new toy

    How about the new model 500 from S&W: It has the muzzle energy of a 12Ga shotgun slug (about 2600 ft.-lb). Good article in Popular Mechanics if you have it. A good hunting gun in nothing else.

    My new toy

    Interesting stuff, greg, although it never was my intention to try to convince you to switch to 9mm.

    My new toy

    Greg- I've read some really good stuff about the accuracy of the CZ75 when using 124g bullets. There's a good read about how the 124g 9mm is significantly better than the 115g when used in the CZ75 (and clones) because of the higher spin rate afforded by the (revolutionary at the time) 6 groove...

    My new toy

    Good call Greg. It is a clone of the CZ 75 made by Tanfoglio. The thing is 18 years old now....still looks good! C

    My new toy

    OK, it's not really new. My dad bought it for me in the 1980's and I finally got it out of storage and claimed it as mine. Anybody like to shoot? http://www.wideopenwest.com/~kharper/ta90_markings.jpg http://www.wideopenwest.com/~kharper/ta90_rh_open.jpg...

    [Warranty News]: WD Changes Warranty

    Maybe WD thinks that the buyer of a 'non-retail' drive actually knows wtf they are doing and has some computer hardware knowledge. In this case, there is less chance a drive will be returned to WD for one reason or another... I wonder if WD has a higher return rate (as a % of sales) for retail...

    Advice for wife's new Christmas computer

    Yes but I don't think the difference is noticeable. I've run systems with the same board side by side and you can't tell. If you want to run benchmarks all day it might make a difference thought.... :lol: C

    Advice for wife's new Christmas computer

    BTW: One really nice thing about the Aopen board I mentioned is that you can independently control the speed of your CPU fan and case fans either from within the BIOS or using the Windows utility provided. It really works great and let's you tune your fan speeds to your cooling and noise level...

    Advice for wife's new Christmas computer

    Adcadet- I HIGHLY recommend this nForce2 Ultra board Aopen AK79D-400VN. I have built two systems (one is my own) and it has been flawless. At $71 it is a steal. I can't think of any reason not to go an Nforce2 route (especially Ultra). C

    WD800JB

    Bought this from Blake a while back. The WD600JB I now have is a newer design (single platter I believe) and is significantly quieter. I don't need 80GB of space so I am selling the WD800JB. It is eBayed right now but feel free to make me an offer if you'd rather not bid. Thanks, C

    What really seems odd is that the retail drive has the shorter warranty. I'd expect the bare drive to be cheaper and have a shorter warranty... Weird........ C

    Whoops...I didn't count them. Are them little adapters for the regular molex connector dirt cheap? Whats the big deal about having them out of the box anyway? The 120mm fan is cool though... C
