Model : HDT721010SLA360 (That's a 7K1000.B)

MSI apparently replaced the keyboard for a better one and doubled the battery's capacity. They've dropped the price by 100$ (now 800U$). Source

While I don't mind ladies showing off, the organisation you linked was founded by Raël. He's a freak. I don't know if he's on wikipedia, but do a quick search on the Net about him and decide for yourself. He's known here (the kind of person you'd wish they don't come from your part of the...

Regarding the risk to my reputation : I will test the chips before I sell them like this. And about the lost of data, I doubt there's a risk. I'm not modifying the controller of a hard drive. I'm unlocking (and thoroughly testing) cores on a processor. AMD sells a lot more dual core chips...

My new build consist of a Phenom II X2 545 nested on a GigaByte GA-M770T-UD3P. I paid 92$CAN for the CPU (roughly 85U$). Thanks to the SB710 of the motherboard and the advanced clock calibration feature in the BIOS, I've been able to unlock the remaning two cores. At POST and in Windows, the...

The Hitachi 1TB drive is the cheapest 1TB drive I can get these days, but my supplier doesn't provide a model number, just some basic specifications. I have one in stock at the store, but I'm not working there today so I cannot verify what I have. It wouldn't make sense for Hitachi to still...

That's because he doesn't use the same lenses than you do.

Are the people at your work know that all computers purchased from OEM these days are entitled to a free Windows 7 upgrade when it's officially released?

It is significantly more power-hungry than the 4770, but it is also a tiny bit faster. If power efficiency isn't at the top of your list, a 4850 at 90$ is a great bargain.

It is not a need. It is a hobby. A display of physical strenght. My neighboor is a former local strongman, but he was never able to bend that nail with his hands. He challenged me to do it. I usually don't disappoint.

I've always thought Aluminum has a too low flexibility to be bent when it is in a form with any significant tickness.

Try Ccleaner, then ComboFix, Malwabytes, Smitfraudfix, and Avira Anitivir. If they don't catch anything except cookies, tell them to shut up. Don't forget to bill them for all the time spent waiting in front of the computer while the scans complete.

It must be made of steel. It's been in a garage for years and it doesn't show any rust so it isn't pure iron. Aluminum nails wouldn't bend, they would break.

I have a new hobby : bending nails. So far, I haven't been able to induce the slightess curve in a 10 inches nail I'm practicing on. I know I can apply beyond 400 pounds of pressure with my hands, but I suspect that it's far from being enough. I can feel a mecanical stress in the nail when...

I can buy this enclosure from my suppliers, but I doubt it will come with the 80+ certified power supply. It cost me 65$CAN and cases in that price range typically don't include 80+ power supplies. Is it sufficiently silent to be recommended for a HTPC? I buy a lot of In Win cases and while...

But it's 12.5mm in height instead of the standard 9.5mm. Announcement Mooner will be happy.

Thanks. I'm glad to know that my lack of english-listening skills weren't completely in cause.

I don't understand what the little girl says : "But here it says our...?"

Well, the fix appears to be simple : disable VT in the BIOS. Have you tested the RAM with memtest?

From the page I linked : I assume if it can burn waste from animals, it can burn yours too. Just let it dry before. But unless you're in a desert, it would be much easier and cleaner to fill it with small wood pieces and leaves than using it as a crap pot. Anyway, don't ask me to try it and...

My grill cost 80$, is portable, works with 2x AA batteries for up to a day and a half, supplies 20000 BTU and uses almost anything organic for fuel. One pan at a time thought.

Which web site? I haven't seen anything change here.

Do not confuse support for memory frequency and support for fsb frequency. The G41 fully supports the fsb frequency of the new E6300. Have no worry in this regard.

The Pentium Dual Core E6300 has a higher fsb frequency (1066MHz vs 800MHz for the older Pentium Dual Core) and it supports virtualization. There's nothing else differentiating it from the lesser Pentium Dual Core. The Athlon X2 550 beats it most of the time except that it consumes ~20-30W more...

Ultimately, I think it's the 4GB RAM limit of Windows XP that will finally push people and businesses to drop Windows XP. If it wouldn't be of that limit, I would not have sold a single Vista license yet, two and a half years after its release.

I would try Quarkxpress, but I'm not ready to spend 800U$ just for a trial.

Am I the only one to never search anything on my computers because I always know where my stuff is?

I watched 24 for the first time during the week-end. I rent the first season and went thru in two days. It was good. Not great, but good. It helped a lot to pass thru the usually boring nights (I've suffered from chronic insomnia these last few weeks). There are something like ten seasons...

You think that's a lot? Haven't you ever crossed a Japanese tourist in your life?

UPDATE Sunspider Javascript benchmark Mozilla Firefox 3.5 : 1076.2ms Google Chrome 3.0.190.4 : 629.6ms Safari 4 : 656.0ms Opera 10 beta : 2817.8ms Internet Explorer 8 : 5135.8ms Same system as before, but the CPU is no longer overclocked (operates at 2.67GHz) and the OS is Windows 7 RC 64...

Firefox 3.5 is out. I haven't seen the announcement anywhere on news site yet. Go to www.mozilla.com to get it.

Except for the shitty keyboard, this one looks to be a great alternative.

Yesterday, I didn't work (it was a holiday here). I spent the afternoon and a part of the evening on a terrace. Today, I worked ~5 hours, but I took the time to lunch again on a terrace because it was so sunny outside. Tomorrow, I'll try to have a tought for all you guys when I'll take my...

And Merc, do you finally have your car?

Trauma? Wrist, elbow or shoulder? I feel I'm about to have a trauma of my own. Two days ago was the first time I had to stop a serie (doing triceps) because the pain in my left elbow was too high and I'm quite hard with my body. This evening, I've been stuck with a puny 80lbs weight doing...

From what I read, the newer WRT54G-TM is more or less the same as the WRT54GL. They are supposed to be a lot more reliable than the regular WRT54G and WRT54G2.

But confirmed to work in Windows 7 RC.

This one have rewarded me with several coasters. I've never had any problem with CD Burner XP Pro. I've never used BurnAware.

You can go with a Windows version of your liking. Make a relatively small primary partition (less than 20GB) for the OS and main applications. Create a second, larger, primary partition for the data. Then create a small, maybe 5GB, last partition in FAT32. Make an image of the first primary...

Do you know if they have received the check from the insurance company? They might be waiting for this. Otherwise, it is utterly unacceptable. Give the contract to another garage just for the sake of it. Pay the towing if you have to. Get it done.

Somewhere between David and Bozo. ...not enough to have been in Viet Nam.

IIRC, the military press is with a bar while the shoulder press is with two free weights. I prefer free weights because if I can't complet my series, I don't knock myself on the head with the steel bar.

100lbs per free weight (x2), shoulder press.

Well, I did it and yesterday, I lifted the most important weights in my entire life. My triceps is holding on. There is still some juice left in this old body.

While they don't have anything to counter the Civic, the Malibu with the new six-speed transmission is nearly on par with the Accord.

According to one local economist, the main problem with GM's viability is the fact that even if it is well reorganised, it will probably fail eventually anyway because less cars are being sold than just two years ago and it won't reach past sale rates for several more years. In 2007, 17 million...

IOMeter not enough for you?

I am using the 64bit version on a motherboard that has the ICH9R south bridge, but since I had no trouble at all (I did a clean install), it's hard to troubleshoot what's wrong. Everything here went well. I have no RAID array.

I'm bored to death. I completed this evening another week of work in which I've put too many hours. I slept a few hours later this evening because I was burn out. I should continue to sleep, but I'm not tired enough. Everything is closed now (it's passed two O'clock), except bars, but you...
