    End is near for Barracuda ATA IV & V, replaced by 7200.7

    /Ralf cautiously sticks his head out of his hole and attempts to defend the Barracuda IVs. I'm a "Quiet Computing" nut and Barracuda IVs are a Godsend to me. They're heads and tails better (quieter) than any other 7200rpm drive and have 95+% of the performance. No other 7200rpm drive comes...

    Which Net browser do you use?

    Opera for me, 99.9% of the time, IE for the other .1% of the pages that Opera doesn't work with (Win Update, M$KB to name a few).

    Activations problems multi-booting WinXP?

    He's doing fine, he should be home eating dinner right now. We'll be going into KlingKlang again tomorrow morning to continue working on the new album (as we've done every day since 1991). It's coming along pretty good, may be done within about five years. :wink:

    Activations problems multi-booting WinXP?

    The one for my Dell Inspiron 7500 is only $9.95. It's a metal carrier + the plastic cover, all for $10. A bargain if you ask me. Most of them aren't too expensive nad many notebooks have pretty easily replaceable HDDs.

    Opera 7 released

    OK, after trying O7 "final" for four days I'm going back to 6.05. I just can't get past all the bugs. I've used Opera since v3.5x almost exclusively and I realize that it has it's quirks and I've put up with buggy "final" releases before (anyone remember v5.0?) but this is just too much. O7...

    I can't imagine doing it any other way. I even have extra HDD carriers for my Dell notebook.

    what's your favorite email client?

    I use Operas' email client. I use the browser and the client does everything I need for email. This is applicable to Opera 6.05, the new email client in Opera 7.0 sucks pretty bad. If I wasn't using Opera I'd probably use the Netscape email client.

    Good evening Clipton and Tea. I'm here from Storage Review and looking foward to spending some time here. Tea- I use Drive Image but you can accomplish the same thing with Ghost. You need to create an image to do this, you can't just DnD.

    Activations problems multi-booting WinXP?

    I have the same retail XP Pro installed on four different HDDs in my main system. Each HDD is in a mobile rack and I swap them in and out as needed. One is my main working OS, the other is for games only and the last two are for testing stuff. I've been doing this since Win98 days and have...
