    What do we all look like

    i'm sure everyone has pics in which they look disreputable (not suggesting pw's is such a pic). i came across one such pic of me whilst looking for some to post here. god knows if you were to see it, you would have an entirely different opinion of me and it too is only a pic of my head and...

    Geforce Decision...Which One

    i ended up getting a leadtek GF4 4600. it has a massive wrap around heatsink and dual fans so it should keep the beast cool enough. i never would have considered using the words heavy and video card in the same sentence but this card is heavy. coupled with my current XP2000+ cpu i get:

    Sold on Dual CPUs?

    hmm not so sure about that. nowadays, many single cpu systems seem to have as much ram as a dually's and dual borard seem only to be about double the price, not triple. (maybe i want another dually but don't want to fund it so i'm in denial... :P)

    Sold on Dual CPUs?

    i hadn't really thought about cost increase ratio of a single compared to dual system nowadays. back when i built mine in dec 1996, each 180mhz 256k p/pro cost me something like AU$950 and that was a very good price. the supermicro dual atx mobo was somewhere in the vacinity of AU$600. add to...

    SB Live! locking up my system.

    i think time is on the right track. i've had an issues with SB lives in the past and nearly always the problem was caused by resource confilcts. most often the solution that worked the best was to remove all the drivers and then the device from the dev/mgr. reboot into the BIOS, force IRQ 5 to...

    World Cup 2002

    with Germany being one the greatest football nations on this planet, i don't see the USA beating them. GGermany haven't played at their best yet. and although USA have done very well to get this far, a team the calibre of Germany will be too much for them. Go go England!

    the game is lost because you chose not to play fair and without respect. it's pretty lame of you to claim i was incapable of honest self-examination, lacking in personal growth and "sad" when you are the one that went back and edited your post so it said something quite less then you intended...

    well no in fact. you brought it onto the attack on the WTC, i was talking about the disinterest of the many americans i have spoken to, to consider US foreign policy as a possibly contributor to the events that lead to 11/9. indeed the two are stongly conencted. Al Qaeda attacked the WTC...

    bloody hell, how many times do i have to say it? are you not reading what i am saying? again; I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT JUSTIFICATION. understanding of the reasoning of the events of 11/9 and having an opinion of the justification there of are two separate things. granted the former does usually...

    ok, one more. i don't know. have you considered that US foreign policy is perhaps wrong for people local to the Arab region? how fair is it to them? i don't know if this is true or not but i do know that it seems the attittude of many americans i have come across that they are blidnly...

    i don't think you realise that i'm not talking about justification, i'm talking about understanding. in regards to justification, i completely agree with you. i am of the opinion that the WTC attack was completely unjustified and considering i have tried to understand Al Qaeda's reasoning, i...

    unjustifiable as it may be, ignoring the facts around the issue won't help you next time it happens though will it?

    wow, i'm almost stunned. by considering Al Qaeda's reasoning completely irrelevant, you're choosing not understand why they chose to attack in such a large scale, vicious way? despite their actions being right or wrong, how can you choose to be ignorant of all the facts that lead to 11/9?

    The Giver revealed...

    aah but you see, Al Qaeda do think it was a morally justifiable act against a morally culpable enemy. my only point is, and always was, that some americans simply refuse to accept a possible cause for Arab rage is american foreign policy in the region of Arabs nations - and nothing more than...
