Just a basic informational site. I want to show items on sale and the available used computers. Business hours, contact informations and price list. The usual for a computer store. I do not want to sell stuff via the web site (no online orders). I don't have the structure to support this...

It's from Tintin comic books. And I didn't ask for her permission before setting up the name of her network.

ie - You need an LGA1155 or newer, which are currently unavailable. However, I don't see a situation where booting from a 3TB hard drive wouldn't be dumb.

La Castafiore for a woman singer.

Just use two partitions : one small for your OS and programs and one large for your data. OR one SSD for your OS and programs and one mecanical hard drive for your data. Once you've finished installing your OS and programs on the small volume, make an image of it with either Acronis True Image...

Fact of life #1 : You need a web site when you run a computer shop. Fact of life #2 : It's very hard for a non-programmer to create a web site, alone. Fact of life #3 : It can be quite expensive to hire someone to build a web site for you. Fact #3 is the reason behind fact #2. I hope to have...

With the price they ask for it, they don't seem to have planned this as a lower-end unit.

I've just completed a 2684 unit and it gave me 58100, about 8000 or 9000 points less than any other big unit would have.

Wasn't the show cancelled midway thru the second season? And no, I wasn't hook by it. Too much drama, not enough brawl. Felt like a mix between Star Trek and Oprah (at least what I heard Oprah is/was).

With the kind of pictures you store on your computers, I thought that's what you'd be looking for. A tight ass picture in as ass frame. Perfect fit.

3TB for everyone, including XP users, thanks to DiscWizard. Assuming you're willing to spend 280$ for it. Source

No, it won't. The best you can do is to put a Win7 inside a VM (with Virtual Box) and then run it on the USB drive, but you'll need another OS on the internal drive to boot off first.

Good news : we reached 6 million points for the month...yesterday. And Sdbardwick passed the million mark. Also, we have a news contributor : detruzor. Bad news : I won't make 2 million points this month. The unit that would send me over that milestone will finish 3 hours and a half too...

I looked at the price and at the color and I tought it was made by Apple.

I do Project 6900 units all weeks long and I get more than 65K points every time. They are only worth 8955 points when you don't make the prefered deadline (4 days). But, you should make the prefered deadline, don't you? BTW, Project 2684 is the worst P.O.S. unit Stanford produced. It takes...

Every little bit counts. And it's not that small a contribution as you imply it is. A PS3 gives roughly a thousand points per day. That's not bad in the long run. I won't spit on it and I'm grateful to whoever gives it to us. Not everyone is willing to dedicate a bunch of Core i7 machines...

Are you sure the temp didn't drop 15F before it started snowing? Because, maybe it's just my part of the world, but at 50F, it's generally (always, actually) raining instead of snowing.

Who's PS3?

If I can just stop grabbing my ass, we have chances to achieve 6 million points this month. Oh and this will be our best week ever...again. Way to go guys. Three others sending more than 300K points this week. This is great.

On the five machines I've installed the SP1, none had any problem completing the installation. What the hell is wrong with you!

If the WCG is anything like the F@h project, then I strongly second Time's suggestion of jumping to a 2600K instead of the 2500K. I don't think there's such a thing as "big units" for the WCG, but still, eight core (even if four are virtual) versus four should make quite a leap in total...

SSDrueding, you simply started to compute big units. Those are worth more than 60K points when completed within the preferred deadline (which you did). They take ~3 days to complete. That's why you have a lot of points on certain days and not so many on others. I have three computers doing...

You know, there are way better places to be in the World, Merc. Just move. You said you liked Toronto when you visited it. You would not even have to learn French and people wear shoes there (or so I've heard). Or you could stay where you are and keep trying to fix the unfixable...

No, you should wait one month or two and get one of the SandForce 2 drives when they enter the market.

Are you sure you're ok Mooner? Changed pills recently?

Sorry, I think (well, I'm quite sure) I posted this in the wrong thread.

I'm not reading this correctly. The first time I read it, I thought you were implying that there's still new hardware supporting DOS. I'll read a second time...Damn! It still looks like you ask us for NEW hardware for running DOS. I must not have taken enough coffee this morning. Anyway...

The news comes from StorageReview.

I have one or two of the old IBM AT keyboards from the 80's, but having to use an AT-to-PS/2 and then a PS/2-to-USB adapter is starting to be a pain in the ass. I agree they are hard to match for typing confort though.

We passed the 60 million points mark yesterday :cheers: One of my machines gave me errors as soon as I started the client after rebooting from a batch of Windows updates. It had been flawless for an entire year before that (it's the first machine on which I started to make big units). Turns...

It was about time you decide on something. I was about to ask you to rename the thread : "I STILL need a bed..."

You can go with a Phenom II for the same price as an i3. In my lists, the X4 955 is priced within 2$-3$ of the i3 550, but it's a significantly faster processor. And nothing prevents you to use an 85$ AMD motherboard. It will have a lot more features than the 85$ H55 Intel motherboard. You...

Age is not what caused Time to not understand you (regionality might be a better reason). He's about one and a half times your age.

People will also need to be careful. Right now, when they leave the living room, they enter the hallway. But in the future, they will have to exit by the windows or fall into the void.

Here, Aten's CS1764A are available for ~200$ with the shipping. 4 ports, DVI/USB/audio. Acceptable price, but there are VGA models that cost only a third of that. So there's still room for improvement.

Did they try to talk you out of having all this wild sex in the livingroom after sunset with the curtains wide open or do they sleep that late and never noticed? ;-) Sorry, I'm tired and I'm heading to bed.

He can't get big units with a 1090T because Windows only sees 6 cores while it needs 8 to start a big unit. Only Magnycours Opteron can process big units on AMD's side AFAIK.

I visited Stanford's FAH forum to see what Mark was doing these days and he gave one nice piece of advice for those running the GPU client (Solid State Drueding here) :

I've just checked and if I was a team, I would be 158th by daily production. What's frightening is that there's 242 individuals who are sicker than me.

That must have been one of those damned 2684 units. I received one today. I deleted the entire FAH folder and reinstalled and reconfigured the client. Ten minutes later, it redownloaded a f**king 2684 unit. It should complete it on time, but it will finish with less than 3 hours of the...

BTW, sdbarwick is keeping up with you. He's just 2000 points shy of what you did this week. Not bad at all for an FAH rookie.

You're now 985th and I'm 285th by daily output. 666K points for me this week. It was a good one. And it was a great week for our team too. We have 4 members who contributed for more than 200K points this week only. We are the 96th best team by daily production. We are awesome.

WTF are you doing being awake at 5:55am on Saturday morning? Saturday morning is made to sleep, Greg. And next time it's snowing outside, just make a M. Fingerman's special : post o picture of your hand showing the finger to the meteo outside and go back to sleep. You don't even have snow...

Indeed it is. And once the papers are filled, it takes three months and cost some 80$.

I even know a few of those roads, but the problem is that it's still written "Québec" on my car's plate. That's like a big red flashing neon for cops and I risk being arrested for next to nothing and if that happens and I don't have a passport, I'm in the shit.

We now have many major contributors in our team. On a 24-hours average, we are the 101st team overall. We are ahead of teams such as team Russia and team 2ch@PS3 which respectively have 114 and 204 active users (we are 11, counting the on-and-off Tea). Speaking of Tea, people shouldn't worry...

It seems to be very well made, but what's the goal? As Merc pointed out, rackmounts exist for this. Need storage space? Buy a half-eight cabinet and stack a few 4U enclosures into it. You'll fit WAY more hard drives than into the enclosure he made. And if you like the "natural" look...

On second thought, scratch the above. I just remembered that now you need a passport to enter U.S.A. and I still don't have one.

Well, for what it's worth, I have nothing to do this weekend. If you have name and addresses, I'm both cheaper and more effective than lawyers, even if you pay my transport.

Oh yeah, links to the products I'm talking about : Xigmatek Gaia Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus
