    How Did You Stumble Across The [S]torage [R]eview Website ?

    Well, I have to say I feel vindicated now. I posted a similar story to the one Gary told and was told by Eugene that there was most certainly not ever a loss of posts in the timeframe of 1998. He nearly had me convinced. ------------------------ I'm sure I "discovered" the site after a search...

    Your pets, and mine.

    Vlad... paws of steel... pretty funny. :) My cat is a shelter cat. I've had her about 6 months now and she was expected to be 1 year old when I got her. She is pretty lazy for the most part but we have started this new game. It reminds me of the relationship between Inspector Clouseau and...

    Windows 2000 Service Pack ---> 3 <--- Available

    I could zoom in, true. But the viewing window stayed the same size. Which might not have been too, too, too bad if the little window had scroll bars. It stayed 1.5" square. At least tell me what RG stands for.

    If you do start having problems again and think it might be case temp related, point a floor fan into the open case. That should tell you something.

    I was in the canoe beside you. I only visit Tom's anymore for the news synopsis. It's a same that thing with Van had to happen. As I finished my reading I thought, you know this does have a Vegas feel. This is the Tom's I remember fondly: http://www.tomshardware.co.kr/home.html...

    It was a dark and stormy night

    Commas are for joining a dependant clause to an independant clause. They join two related clauses, one of which can not stand alone. However, while not technicaly correct, particular sentence structure lends an emotional feel beyond what is simply stated in words. It's like body language for the...

    Need Recommendation For A UPS

    Steve, beware that most of the UPS companies write their model numbers based on the wattage but you need to base your decision on the volt-amps. I personally really like Opti-Ups. In a couple days I will have a total of three here at the house. They rate the VA of the UPS the same as the...
