    Building a dirt-cheap HTPC....

    So the PVR card is stable and the software isn't stable... stable+unstable==unstable? So what do you really think of this combo? :lol:

    Brrrrrrrr....so bloody cold

    Well, I'm with you on that one as well....I like the weather to remain between 48F and 72F at all times. I can handle colder much better than hotter, but either is unpleasant.

    Surveilence camera suggestions...

    Unfortunatly, those require too much light. I'll need 2 cameras for 0.5Lux and 1 0Lux camera....I'm currently looking at the SKY2001CIH and SKY475

    Buck, That card looks to be just what I am after. I am concerned about this warning on their page, however: I'll be sticking it in an ASUS A7N8X Deluxe motherboard...any ideas? i, I don't have time to look at that right now, but I'll check it out tonight. Thanks for the feedback!

    Surveilence camera suggestions...

    Ideally I'd like to be capturing to a PC 24/7. I'll be able to run cables to each location, power and data. I was hoping to get something for <$500, but after doing some research I don't know if that is possible.

    Hardly. IMHO Houston blows (no direct offence intended). Austin not only has better weather (and much lower humidity) but has a much better social climate. It's a college town and well known for it's live music.

    Thirsty

    Well I just picked up another case of Alice WHite Chardonnay. Certainly not beer, but very nice nonetheless. And with a touch of Aussie flavor (though it is imported and bottled 40 miles from here).

    Why do people love the Barracuda ATA drives?

    you seem to have hit the nail on the head. It is very quiet, and is 10-15% slower than louder drives. All depends on your priorities I guess. Me? I use raptors :mrgrn:

    I'll have to check that out! I actually still use the boots, but the tred pattern is a little...unusual. It leaves really cool footprints ;)

    Brrrrrrrr....so bloody cold

    The last time I was there, I spent about a week on each side, a different B'n'B' each time. I hear you can no longer walk out to the lava flow. I got within about 3-4' last time before my boots melted. Those are a cool souvenier.

    Alternative Browser

    All it has to do is be free and I might consider trying it out. :roll: Even since IE made the browser market "free", buying a web browser is as silly as...erm...charging for other things you can get for free :eekers: Sorry, mind blank...

    SR Dead?

    Like SF? :P Actually, (although I have given money to SR) the reason ddrueding1 has such a low number is that right after the MBF I tried to login and couldn't (username not found) so I created a second account for myself (the original being the same as my handle here). I keep wondering if I...
