    AMD to crap on customers, Q1 06

    Me either. I am sick to death of waiting on building a faster gaming/AIO machine. Over the next month or so I'm digging my heels in and building one.

    Best program for copying DVD's, and CD's?

    Yes, to extract files from downloaded cd/dvd images. Kind of a pain in the ass to use.

    This problem had been constant through many builds of Firefox I've tried, not just the newest ones. Head over to anandtech and grab a review to read. Down past the bottom of the review there will be a printer icon labeled "Print this article". I often prefer reading the print version of a...

    I did exactly that. Just needed to go into about:config and turn "extensions.disabledObsolete" to false to get the extensions working again. It's working flawlessly so far.

    Stupid case innovation

    I like zip-ties for keeping the wires out of the way. Certain zip-ties have a tiny trigger release so they don't need to be cut off if you want to remove them. I have used a couple looped together in an "8" to hang off the case top structure and hold the psu cables out of the way in the past...

    What's the chance of this neato piece of metal chafing through the wires it's holding out of the way over time? Are the edges properly radiused?

    Ranger Ar3500 35 Watt Model Will Ship 10.00 Flat rate In Us

    GOOD LUCK These radios are a real pain in the ass to sell since they're now illegal to possess, sell, or operate in the USA. Ebay won't let you auction them. I had 2 HAM radio forums kill my classified ad. Finally it sold on another HAM forum (I can't remember which, it's been a long time).

    The charity concert was yesterday. Roger Waters left Pink Floyd in 1981 after fighting with David Gilmour over control and direction of the band. This is the first time the guys have played a show together since then. I've seen Pink Floyd twice in concert during the post-Waters era for the...

    Thanks Mark. Thanks Doug. I remember reading that folks with hyperthreaded P4s were able to run two FAH instances per CPU. After not being able to find anything by searching, I wanted to ask if anyone had specifically read (or seen) that this could be done on the new A64-X2s CPUs through...
