David: That would be fun :mrgrn: It's a public school, and the principal demands a bunch of stuff that is way beyond the original contract. It's sort of like working with the Japanese. You sign a contract, for specific terms, and think you have a firm deal. They think the signing of the...

WONDERFUL KATTY :excl: :wink: :mrgrn:

Hi guys My current employer, requires me to have an email address, alleged to save paper, but, if screws with me at home, and that's not happening. Anyone have a free email I can give my current district? Anyone have any great ways to screw with someone who's using the 'high horse' approach...

That is looking really good from here. :wink: gs

I've got two NEC 3540A's that haven't failed. Of course I haven't installed either of them yet... :oops: :wink: s

This entire argument is moot. No matter what brilliant conclusion we come to, Bill Gates isn't listening. To put it simply, the MOST IMPORTANT FUNCTION OF A COMPUTER IS TO ALLOW THE USER TO DO A TASK AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, WITH THE LEAST NUMBER OF STEPS, AND AS DIRECTLY AS POSSIBLE. Now, we...

The concepts the guy is trying to rail against are the same concept as limiting driver comptency. MSFT is trying to make computers accessible for everyone, and, in a sense, that gives chances to everyone to develop in computer ability. If a 2 year old can move a mouse, learn to click, and use...

Ok: I've had a my dual 2.8 ghz Supermicro machine next to an Athlon 3000+. The dual boots off a -320 LSI single Channel Megaraid card, and, it boots off a Raid 0 dual 36 gig SCA 15.3 Cheetah setup. I have a seperate 15.3 for a page file, and, two 146 gig 10k's for storage. All refurbs that...

Yes, that's Dianee. By the way, Stephen Whayada was really not the guy for her to marry. I did talk to her awhile back, and the divorce really tore her up. Diane came back from a photoshoot in the Carriabean to find all her stuff gone, the locks on the house changed, and, most of the money...

I'm not beat up about it at all. At the time, Diane was a full-time modern dancer, and, a tom boy at the same time. We had some REALLY great times together, running at the track, working out together: Fantastic woman. I ran into her at the track, in the first place. In person she was just...

My only real tie to playboy was having sex with, and asking one of them to marry me. Diane Hsu Lee, Ms. March, 1988... She became Ms. March, because, I suggested she try it... Stupid, MF, idiot that I was... gs

My cat did her thing today. She went, from the floor, to the top of my bathroom door, and, walked around on the top of the door. If my Olympus wasn't so slow, I'd have more pics, but, I did catch a few. Anyone want to host them? GS

Mercutio: You've been seriously screwed, by a seriously psycho B. Realize it, and deal with it. It's happened to me a couple times, and, it's probably not completely her fault in this case. I'm sorry this happened to you, and, I'm sorry for the kid they are trying to adopt. S

I also found the new "universial driver" hp just came out with is, at this point, not working with PC MACLAN, and, does not have an uninstall feature. NICE work, HP. :evil:

WHAT A PAIN IN THE ASS. After installing, and uninstalling PCMaclan, and the printer software drivers, and software for the HP, I finally found a setting in pcmaclan that defaulted to print warnings, "alter and send warning message" or "send as is" setting. It SEEMS at this point, that it's...

Hi I'm using a HP 4000N that has worked fine for a long time. I've been using PC Maclan to get my pc to see it, and, I keep getting this message: "ERROR: undefined OFFENDING COMMAND: STACK:" It prints fine, but then prints this stupid error message on a seperate piece of paper, after...

ROFL!!!!

First time I played it loud, with an epic style DVD, my girlfriend was amazed, yelling it sounds better then the movie theatre. Of course, Klipsch ARE the movie speakers in most movie houses. If I ever have a really nice house, I'd like a set of Klipsch corner horns, maybe 4 in each room...

:lol: Klipsch are pretty efficent. My upstairs neighbor used to have a dog that barked every 7 minutes, from sunup, to sundown, since he liked to bark at golf carts, and, that's how often they go by the house. I loved his dog, but, he just woudn't teach the dog not to bark. As soon as he...

My case, 177 dollars... http://yycase.com/yy-0221.htm It does get crowded, but, for the bucks, and, with a SCA 5 drive box on the front, it's very hard to beat. GS

We just had a short power black out. All computers APC's worked as designed, no down time, and no threat to equipment. I'm just sooo pleased with myself :lol: :wink: gs

Really :?: I have a dual Xeon 2.8 in the other room, and, with scsi in both, admittedly a dual cheetah raid zero on the Supermicro/xeon rig, there isn't any comparision between the two, speedwise. The Athlon 3000+ does shine at games, which might be what these guys are mainly intrested in...

Darwin, at one point in his writing, stated his intention was to explain how it was done, and alluded that he thought some sort of sentinent being controlled it. GS

Thanks to all here, my SO now has a nice Athlon 3000+. I've taken the long lived, Dell P2 400 mhz, and, I've kept it around, trying to figure out, what I sort of know already, that the software she is using made her computer so slow, it was no longer useable. I looked at task manager, and...

We went down 12-26-1999, for the Mill new year. We ended us staying until about the 21st of January. The story behind that one IS the most incredible travel story I've EVER been through, and, after surfing 15-25 foot waves on the North Shore of Oahu, and visiting Japan like it was another...

The first problem is the word "S*ny" :excl: :excl: :excl: :excl: :wink: :mrgrn: Seriously, I'm thinking I would have loved to have an SLR, or movie camera today, to take pics of the 15 foot surf. Suggestions? gs

You REALLY ought to look at the Panasonic line of Toughbooks. They are just wonderful, and they don't have the stupid little pencil eraser, like IBM... Plus, Mercutio, they sort of match you designs, and, they do all kinds of things you wouldn't expect. The small one, my CF-37 fits the small...

OK: I'm a Klipsch lover. You need a really good amp, but not a powerful amp, and they simply rock, like nothing else. You could put a set of Klipsch horns in one room, and be able to hear it in all rooms clearly, and down the block. That said, check this link...

It's certainly true that hard drive progress is moving at a snails pace, compared to other computer parts. It kind of looks like the oil companies, where price fixing has become a way of life. By keeping certain areas to themselves, they keep certain areas artififically high. 7200 rpm laptop...
