Storage? I am Storage!
Did you just move again, Merc? And you have a real modem connection now, I gather. Whoohoo! Welcome to the Century of the Fruitbat!
Mercutio said:Congratulations are of course due to the JoJo, who has found a job more in line with his professional interests.
Then who is he?myself said:He's not himself these days.
I guess by 'real' I should have specified 8x +/- R .. just +R isn't too interesting for me. That's also a bit beyond what I'm willing to pay; under $200 would be acceptable.Pradeep said:Sony announced their 8x DVD+R burners (530A and 530UL) today, they will be available in December, priced at $270 for the internal.
note to The JoJo: yes, I will write more in the "Writing Something" thread, sometime
Mercutio said:I note that we get a lot of spectators here, people who drop by and read everything but never post. That would be OK except... why did those people log in?
Mercutio said:I'll even one-better that. First person to come up with a decent article of say, 1000 words (e.g. a decent Tannin-sized rant, or about 3 pages) on a topic of interest to SF's members, I'll buy a new 256MB stick of Crucial PC3200.
LunarMist said:Presumably there are some who do not feel they are part of the club. It can be difficult to start at a new forum. It is apparent that a low-count member's comments are often overlooked in the dialog between two or three multi-Kers. That is especially the case in the P&B forum.
Who's that? Greg Santilli maybe? The only Gary I know is Mr. Hendershot (which the bartender forgot to mention...).Mercutio said:...the high post count guys (Eric, Tony, Kevin, GaryH, GaryS, Sean ...),...
Mercutio said:I guess what I want to say is, posts are noticed by the omnipresent, but if you really want to be more involved in the conversation, then be more involved in the conversation. Start your own if need be. Some folk have been bitten by that, I know, pouring hours into replies that were wiped away, but hey, even if you only post three or four times a week, that's three or four more chances that someone will engage you.
Mercutio said:Forum is unusually quiet for a weekday. How am I supposed to fill my workday anything to read on SF?
