Me.

The way I see it, if they claim 50 years, it should be good for 7. That's all I need.

I like the claimed 50 year archival life of the media as well.

I'll take you up on that if you'll skip the drum and give me a Sharpie Professional Regarding the other thing....yes, I agree to disagree with my own opinion. It was pretty late, and PUI is always a bad idea.

Although we are digressing from the OP quite a bit (sorry Merc), I'd just like to explain my reasoning. 1. Most people are not entirely comfortable thinking about sexual identity. 2. Those that are uncomfortable thinking about it and are confused normally claim the default (straight) position...

The girl I just started seeing was under the impression she fit that category, too. Now there's just a certain...flexability? Being "on the fence" on this issue seems to be more the norm than the exception.

Well, I'm in the top half of producers... :roll: I can't wait until our new management software is ready. Right now I'm only running 3 machines, we'll have another 19 once the software is ready.

I'm glad to hear things are going so well. Definatly sounds like a win-win situation. Just smack DB around a little; anyone with experience in these things knows that the 3-way option is in their court right now...sheesh

Best wishes Mercutio. Relationships are funny things; when there are actual emotions involved, all the rules go out the window. Just be sure to watch your step and yourself first.

When I have cats, they are in/out-door and dont' require litterboxes. I guess this is also thanks to the climate here; it never freezes, ever. And there aren't any predators, as you need to walk across at least 3 miles of open field from any direction to get into town. A few possums, but my...

I won't be able to get up there for another 2 weeks, but she's already talking of moving down here. We discussed strategies for breaking up our current relationships. Already talking "love" and "future". If this were anyone else, I'd say they were crazy, but I'm convinced this is something...

Congratulations guys, that's awesome. Mowing the lawn is a task best left to professionals, IMHO.

no, chocolate isn't needed on the first date...just Tequilla

Mercutio having a good day? Just the thought of it makes me smile...

I'll be meeting her in Portland, OR. This is a town completely unfamiliar to either of us. We'll be staying at a friend's house, one who just moved there and is also unfamiliar with the layout. Any Sugesstions of good coffee houses, Bars, Jazz Clubs, Comedy Clubs, etc?

I guess I'm just too easy-going. I'm not bothered at either. I post at both places, mainly deciding where to post based on the company I'm aiming for. high-end/personal stuff here, gamer/tweak stuff there.

I met her 5 days ago. As part of a larger group, we made small talk for an hour that day and 2 the next. 3 days ago I found out her last name and 2 days ago the formality of the occasion and presence of siblings, parents, and significant others were the only things keeping us 6 inches apart...

Vodka Tonic for me, and if the ladies lack taste, an Oatmeal Cookie for them. 1/5 Goldschlager 1/5 Jagermeister 3/5 Baileys :o

Hey, long time no see! You haven't found anything more interesting than us...have you :o I hope the first rule isn't that you can't talk about it...

$/sq ft? I never really thought of doing it that way, as the prices seem to be more determined by location and age than size. But the last place I looked at was about $333/sq.ft.

I thought of Tony when I read that, very funny indeed.

I've been scrambling to buy a nice place in my town, but anything decent is $600k+. As a first-time buyer, that is quite a daunting task. $50k Down and $3k/mo? Right....I'll get back to you. :cry:

So what company makes (relatively) cheap, reliable, bootable, iSCSI HBAs?

Can I blame your motherboard? :P

So is housecall "it"? Is there not a resident virus scanner worth a hill of beans? I have clients clamoring for it...but they're all shite.

gold disk'd?

Well, he beat me to it actually, but I didn't notice until now.... Congratulations ;)

Also, if you don't mind spending some money to protect your expensive equipment, BlackBox offers some very nice enviromentally controlled enclosures. They have a really spiffy one with dual filtered intakes and A/C :o

So is everyone here fairly confident about housecall's ability to find everything?

I'd vote yes to at least 3 of those options, but cluelessness is the primary factor. 1. Most computer users are completely clueless. Those with a minor clue know that viruses exist, those with a slightly larger clue have heard of Norton. 2. These people take the fact that Norton is on their...

Here in Central Califoria I run quite a bit of gear in the garage. I got one of those weather recorder things from Rat Shack to keep an eye on the climate. The garage is relatively air-tight, and computer equipment does a great job of removing humidity from the air. Just be sure to keep all the...

Kicked every one out of work so I could leave early, won good money at poker, drank a lot of good wine, made good progress on a girl of distinction....life is good ;)

I'm at work. Though we've posted standard hours, I plan on bailing and going to a friend's party as soon as it gets quiet. If everyone left right now I wouldn't mind.

I'm seriously interested in putting 3 of these on some workstations I'm building. Does anyone have information on getting it to run on PCs? If they just use the dual-link DVI, than the Matrox cards should work...no?

The P5A is the reason I still love Asus. Though they haven't done much for me lately, that was an absolute dream.

That is absolutely incredible. Even if you don't have the time for all 10:22 of it, you must listen to the last minute or so...that is completely amazing.

I'll second Merc's review of Spidey. I just got out and wouldn't complain about seeing it again. And the ending is perfect.

Grr. I moved it, really I did. But then Smiley came back and messed it up again. I have mounting brackets for the cams, and just haven't had the time to bolt them in place.

After doing some more research, that Hayabusa Turbo is good for 420hp! :o Weighing in at only 480lbs...boggles the mind....

I'll drink to that.....Belvedere and Tonic, if you please.

Doesn't strike me as paranoid...we'll see how closely they're watching the thread...

I will when I get into the office. Right now the tall blonde kid is working, and I'm 100 miles away. I'll be in @ 6PM PST.

that second video is very cool. That bike could get me in a lot of trouble (as I'm sure it does the current owner :roll: ) And for only $18k? Holy cow...

nice thread on SR

Thanks, at night the systems are the only light source...it looks really cool.

not when I made it....I just wanted to go to sleep having 999 posts and ran out of things to say,

I'm a gaming nut. If this system can't play DX9 games @ 2048x1536 it won't fly. Triple head is also a requirement. This is my primary rig, I just want to put the harddrives 20+ feet away. One of the clients that I would consider this to be a test for use AutoCAD2004 on dual-head workstations...

My quiet computing has really become a sick obsession. My system has 2 120mm fans, one built into the PS (that I've replaced with a 5v Panaflo) is actually ducted to draw from my Zalman 7000A with fan removed. the other draws air across the hard drives and blows across my passively cooled 9800XT...

Thanks guys. When I started posting here, it was my primary social outlet. Now that my new business has me playing host 12 hours a day, this is more my home than any physical place on earth. I've always been able to count on consistent, informative, and earnest responses from everyone here. I...
