Pretty sure it is a standard unit. I know a standard would fit without issue.

Quite so. Attractive and uninterested, so she posted the number at the front desk ;)

A 380W 80 Plus Bronze. Nice little unit.

When really desperate, I've made the delivery guy come back in his personal vehicle and drop off the forgotten package. It helps that he gave our secretary his cell number. ;)

If the card shows as a boot option, that is all that is required. You specify which drive from the controller on the controller's management interface.

I build them myself. This is one of the easiest builds ever. The case makes everything a breeze. I think it took about 15 minutes, including unboxing all the bits, until I was in the BIOS. This system is not particularly cheap, and I am dissapointed with the noise level of the stock fans, but...

Mainly to get files off in a hurry, but I must admit that I'm a bit addicted to the 8FPS high-speed mode, and that burns through speed and capacity quite well. The 720P@60FPS video is lovely also.

Indeed. The Win7 performance index was bottlenecked by the GPU at 4.8; a very respectable score. It absolutely rocks at basic office and web tasks.

Then don't kick it? :bigeek: My LSI card was the same. So I installed a waterblock on it ;)

42W Idle, 71W Load. Running Windows 7 Pro with no optimizations.

Not really. A 7D and 3 SanDisk Extreme Pro 32GB cards. I suspect your CF cards combined cost more than a 1DsIII ;)

Indeed. My CF cards cost more than my body, and my lenses cost more than both combined. Isn't that they way?

I sold all my SD cards but one, a 32GB Sandisk Extreme. Should serve you nicely ;)

I doubt any new cameras under $1k use CF cards?

Welcome back Lost!

Ah, still a beta build. That would be expected then.

The text in the lower-right has been an option in builds since at least 2000. Where did you download SP1 from?

Yeah, I was specifically after it for the mic capabilities as well. Thanks for the tip on the noisy mic, but I think that is a universal problem. Do you like the triplefi? It is a bit expensive...

Looking at the SuperFi 5vi for use during my construction project. Thoughts?

No, my comment was more about the general state of controller/drive compatibility. The fact that 7 years (and countless generations of products) after SATA was created, the spec still has enough vagueness to cause basic incompatibility is ridiculous.

So you convert all the files before making your "picks"? The first thing I do is narrow it down to a hundred or so before doing any processing.

I was informed by Areca support that they don't like Samsung drives. You'd think that that kind of crap would have been sorted in the decades of standards and testing.

I've disabled offline files for everyone. I didn't find the tools or techniques to manage it satisfactory.

Interesting. When I get my gaming machine set up again I'll run some tests.

Yeah....no. I don't have that much gear, but thanks for the tips if I end up doing more of this. The lighting was nothing more than the 9 32w 4' tubes in the normal fixtures in my office, with an 80CM light tent sitting on my desk.

If it was only optimized for landscape, would it not also only be optimized for a single resolution? That doesn't make sense to me. I haven't run the benches, but I don't think there would be a hit. The main cost I see is having to go with better LCDs, so the horizontal (now vertical) viewing...

You are almost as good at spending my money as my wife... Edit: But that still has the horizontal bezel right down the middle...I still think 5 16:9 in portrait is the winner.

...and I just noticed they now sell a 680@3Ghz. I would be just a little richer if I hadn't seen that...

Sorry. 670, not 750.

I've never had a basement, either. So the massive number of 10' 2x4s will be the studs? You have 10' of height in the basement?

That is a fairly ridiculous amount of wood. How big is the deck going to be?

What is it? I could obviously use it. I still can't see the seam...

Now that Youtube has added support for 4k video, perhaps we can start the path that moves commodity LCDs from 1920x1080 to 4096 x 2304. I certainly won't mind.

That is what happens when you forget to color calibrate your new laptop screen and do the PP while the client is still there, on that screen. Take another look, and thanks for the catch.

That is pretty quick.

2:15AM. Just finished a photo shoot of a friend's jewelery. I like this one.

Brutally hard day here...really not much ability to do anything of value (like post here ;))

Yes, 18 lumens would be fine for that. I just use the LED screen of the cellphone, and that is considerably less than 18 lumens.

At least you get a trip. I'll be taking pictures of my house for a long time to come, as that is the only place I can afford to be.

Ah, so you will be exchanging it for another 7D? I thought you were returning it for something else.

Yup. I've bought a few of them. People have liked them enough to order their own for home.

Interesting. I haven't had such issues. What will you be using instead?

I live in a place where AC isn't necessary. That helps.

This is far from a "Quality" monitor, but I am impressed with it. And a 23" for <$200 is nothing to sneeze at. Acer V233HAJbd

My laptop has an i7 and a 512MB nVidia 3100M. It seems to be comparable to my i5 750 at home for basic gaming.

Wouldn't turn on? Wouldn't focus?

No permits needed yet. But that starts today, I'm meeting my contractor in 30 minutes.

Yay wall demolition. I don't know which sucks more, breathing in the drywall dust, or suffocating in the mask.

Which is the dog? 5DII? 7D? A lens?

Welcome to the 5k+ posts crowd ;) I just noticed I passed 11k. :o
