My feelings: Floppy disks are the most unreliable pieces of garbage that ever existed. They have caused more lost data than I care to think about. They are so useless because of their ridiculously small capacity. Most bios programs allow you to boot from the CD drive. But a bootable CD still...

The red carpet thread seems to have gone a bit off topic... To the fate of the floppy drive. http://www.handruin.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=36 So what is your verdict? Should it die a quick death in the bit bucket of obscurity? Should it live on as an invaluable tool when things go awry? (discuss)

I installed a new LG CD-RW drive in my parents old computer. It is a pentium 100 with 24MB of ram. The new drive works a treat even at high write speeds. I forget the model number, but it got a very good review from cdrlabs. From what I hear, from the review, these drives are nice and cheap...

That doesn't look very random to me... but lets not get into a discussion about the plausability of randomness... Just use your real name, then conflicts could be understandable. Though I don't suppose there are many William Stanley Rickards III out there...

What sells is also largely determined by the salesforce. You guys like the LG optical drives?

They actually have a support forum. And there is a 6.02 version that supposedly fixes all these problems. But it had too many bugs and was pulled from the downloads section. They don't know when a fixed version will be posted.

I didn't buy it! But the lady who I was helping out went out and bought it. They STILL have NOT fixed the dang automatic update. It hangs the start menu toolbar thing... the whole thing... Anybody else experience this or know of a fix? I tried both automatic and prompted update, they both did...

I say diss the .net The 'The' can stay or go.... Graphic is cool!

The price difference is becoming very small. I'd chose AMD for my sytem... maybe P4 for a family system.

It is a cool idea... for server apps or intensive graphics apps maybe. There is quite a bit of overhead involved in sharing resources.

The red carpet is now in the bar & grill... maybe where this post should have been? I appreciate the personal invite! Now back to perusing the posts...
