    What theme is this

    Indeed, it doesn't look too like orbit. I rather regret my poor choice of thread titles....it should have been which Mozila mail theme is this. Had I done that, I'm sure I would have got a exact answer by now.

    I accept the challenge of Mr. Sparkle But seriously, how could you play over the internet? All one has to do is visit http://www.snpp.com/episodeguide.html]the Simpsons archive[/url] and the world is your oyster....provided you have an oyster mallet....which wasn't made in the USA

    Zalman power supplies

    Speaking about Vantec Stealth stuff, last year about this time I had to replace a 80mm Stealth Fan because it developed a really annoying chirp. The Stealth provided as replacement has, as of lately, started to intermittently do the same thing ... only this time it sounds more on the "squeaky"...

    TT is all flash. I have no need for a flashy PSU...let alone paying for one. Plus, only one SATA connector I believe. And as NRG stated, unlikely to be quiet.

    req: pls recommend a DVD/CD-RW with good DVD rip speed

    Oops, forgot to mention all four non-pressed formats turn in ~6x according to the review ... I've only checked with a -R but can confirm the speed in that case.

    Why do people love the Barracuda ATA drives?

    If that provided Fujitsui is the same 5400 model that one of my friends has then I willing to bet that your's loves to grumble too. Not outrageous, but definitely not the quietest of seekers.

    Merc, have you seen the SilverStone Lascala cases. When I first saw the SST-LC01 online I thought it looked rather big and bulky. However, I actually have seen (and held) one in person, and I was quite surprised how much smaller it was in real life...not to mention that it looks awesome all in...

    Mobile Athlon Chips

    I was just looking at the Antec Minuet on the weekend and thought to myself that it was a shame that it only takes half height cards too. With a little bit of reworking, the minuet could have been a awesome case. Slap a A64 mATX board in there and wow what a fine little computer that would...

    Speaking about Hawaii, I was watching the opening event for the PGA tour this weekend, and boy oh boy did it ever look nice there. The greens and blues in the pictures were just fantastic.

    Lite-On's '04 Roadmap

    BTW, for anyone like Blake who is considering an immediate purchase, there are people who are currently working on a hack of the LiteOn 401s or 411s firmware and EPPROM which effectively gives you a 811s. Early results look very encouraging....of course you negate your warranty, but I suppose...

    Lite-On's '04 Roadmap

    Well, while most STB's have no problem (i.e. the transition is seamless), there are (as Steve alluded) many that have a slight pause, and on older machines, the pause can be quite pronounced.

    Lite-On's '04 Roadmap

    I have my reservations about DL being reliable at first....just look at CD-RW, only a couple of the media manufacturers can produce good quality discs. The 16x appearing so soon, however, is what looks really interesting to me....but once again, its a question of when good, reliable media...

    I second that about the Antecs. I have a TruePower 430 in my generic case and it is a good deal quieter then most, but it has a long way to go before I would qualify it as quiet....however, placing a towel or similar on the wall behind the computer to kill reflections pretty much effectively...

    My annual "I hate winter" rant. This winter has (so far) been very mild, and this is all much to my liking. For example, last Saturday's high was an uncharacteristic 14C. I certainly can live with that. Today's high is some retardedly low number. Right now (although beautifully sunny), its...
