Springville company introduces new DVD to protect data 1,000+ yrs http://heraldextra.com/news/local/article_b25c9a30-7242-11de-9feb-001cc4c03286.html well they say the limiting factor is the current use of plastic for manufacture of these disc's. Don't think I'd want a 'glass' solution...

And what do you think Joon is using to edit 4k RedOne captured pr0n with Merc? HP has an infiniband Raid solution, but there are more with mini-SAS interface...see below. According the BF, newegg had the 4322 on sale @1/2 price in March for $339, it's expensive. But you could still get a 2314...

Well you are correct SD, but I kind of doubt it is the 1st sign. Those in the throngs of chemical love like e_dawg are prone to miss a lot of 'signs'. Check back with us in 7yrs...we'll see if it makes it that far. Besides, there's always next year for new gear to upgrade to, it's guy thing I...

...on dialup, I don't notice much difference btw FF 3.1 & 3.5 as far as speed. I've been using 3.5 since it's release under OSX 10.5.7...unlike Opera which works with 10.2 and newer, FF 3.5 will only run on OSX 10.4 and newer :( Nor sure what they mean by lightweight? Start up on FF consumes...

whew, ok, just had my 1st glass of wine tonight. Back to schools. UCSB is the renowned party school of the UC system. UCSC, back before GS, was the laid-back, earthmother school to Berkeley's politicism (sure are a lot of hot Asian babes @Berkeley though, I should have gone there instead of...

WTF LM, where did that SSD comment come from, I don't see anything related in this thread? Btw, I think I scored higher than Steve Jobs (but of course Bill Gates was higher :p )...cause he didn't take it, or finish or something like that. But who's the smart one after all. SAT's LSAT's don't...

did you cutNpaste those images in from a photosharing site? Can't right click (ctrl key, click for Mac) to see any link from where they came? Reason I hate harsh lighting, all the foliage in the images looks like it's covered with snow! Not really a fan of B&W unless it's sheet film/super fine...

Since none of you are on drugs (least i don't think so), and many of you suffer from ADD (won't mention names :p )...I suppose I need to post up the entire article quote? I know Merc won't do anything more than glance over it, in spite of the fact I post the entire article, so no sense in...

Umm, guess I haven't been following the trials & tribulations of the DD life. I thought your new job was just a walk away from where you lived/were living. Did you move again, change employment locations :confused: Wtf is this place that is a business out in the boonies of Monterey or...

Later, much later...and at what price? Been touted for literally years now. Samsung 80 series, 100% 'support' sRGB (whatever that means) premiere series in 20in & 23in (when they actually ship is anybody's guess...kind of like SSD's) I've looked @ the smaller LCD HDTV's from Samsung 22-26in...

did U try photo forums? Think that would be better???

well it seems manufacturers are having all kinds of difficulty putting a DX/crop sensor in even a Micro 4/3rds cam, so this rumor *has* to be bogus, correct? DX in a P1 sized Nikon PnS digicam? I think it's more likely a wish list (link), speculating like all do. Still, even *if* possible...

How much, new they are $1k?

Little late...but: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/mobile-hdd-notebook,2305.html I don't see 500GB SSD's for even $200, not until say...2012 at the earliest, by then 1GB HD's should be out @$100 *edit* ah damn, FF3.5 has a memory leak or something just like Safari 4.0, got 340MB RAM...

Did not do a search on this looong thread :p. Found this article about BS'in rather interesting (ok, that is not very informative or meaningful...but it *is* <140, w00t!): http://www.northlight-images.co.uk/article_pages/guest/physical_limits.html For dd, in short, this means with your crop...

29mi last week + 36 this week, just finished showering. Haven't lost a pound yet, need to lose 50. Going to heat up a TJ's pesto pizza (best they have @TJ's IMHO), not going to add pepperoni, but I'm going to eat the whole thing, all 900cal. and drink 1/2 bottle of 2buck-chuck Shiraz = 2+k cal...

I just finished walking on the streets (not as a pro :) ), and I'm in a world of hurt. Could go into detail but that would go >140 char. 10+mi today, 36 since Mon.

Yeah, but a lower power 2TB 3.5in like the WD green, would take up less room than those multiple 2.5in externals, even a 2-drive 2.5in external RAID. You should have enough power on the USB port to run a single 3.5in 2TB energy efficient drive. USB3.0 should be a reality by years end.(fingers...

^Where? (<twitterrific/LM reply...we need a twitterrific™ Smilie so I don't have to write that long jargon out every time) \\\ I'm Mac, UR a PC, I'm always out of sync w/every1 here :D In China they only have one time zone for the entire country.

What, no pix? How tall a tower? The newly updated MacBookAir would have suited you (faster boot on W7 :) w/256GB Samsung SSD), one of the faster smaller laptops for it's size...they even dropped the price a little :p Last time I tried to get DSL, the guy from the Teleco pulled a ruggedized...

Yeah, you'd pretty much have to be a real dork not to have access to the VIN. It's on sooo many items/paper trails. It's on the pink slip, registration, insurance papers, etc. >real dork SFW (no actual nudity, less than a cover of Vanity Fair :) ) attached...twitter screenshot, from her recent...

Y would 1 expect? Recession would tend to make 1 think H1 '10 @earliest. @least 1 more? I'd say plenty, over the next 5yrs. Y don't you just buy a laptop that can hold 2 drives and do raid? Raid 512GB SDD's in H2?

LM is going to complain this is why he left SR :P http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJu0DgpiK8c&feature=player_embedded ^As simplistic/sarcastic way of saying the economy is fooked pretty bad, even if leading economic indicators show an improvement. It will take time to see what the diirection is...

Palm Pre risks early demise with $99 iPhone 3G http://www.electronista.com/articles/09/06/08/palm.pre.faces.99.iphone/ Well I hope that doesn't happen as fast as automakers going bankrupt because I've got the lowest price subscriber deal there is from Sprint, have had it since 1997.

Be many months...oh heck, be years at minimum before you'd ever come close to the variety of apps the iPhone enjoys...will Sprint go the way of US auto by then, be bought-out, merged? New iPhone comes out soon, your 'comparison' lacks validity...but then you expect that from the M$ fanboi...

Actually dd, this is an uncharacteristic post, 'are you feeling alright dave' (HAL9000)? U need to spread out those details in at least 4 more posts so the others can vet out all the usual qualifiers :D Uh, SD...U have noticed some changes in dd's life since '05? Maybe you need to do some more...

huh? You want as high a flash sync speed as your cam will accommodate. http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/syncspeed.htm And so is direct flash, which means you want diffused whenever it is possible. I think what dd needs is something called a Nikon :D (certain models)

I sure hope LM exerts the same critical eye on those images as he did with paugie's. All of them are more over-exposed than any in paugie's series. Hope I don't get banned :P. Did dd use full auto, avg. weighted metering on these? Spot metering *could* have resulted in more accurate readings...
