    Looking for a computer for a friend

    I agree. Plus, Nirvana actually wrote and played good music. Which, can't be said for Pearl Jam (at least when I'm saying it).

    MP3 player rant

    I was using it as a general term for an application that will talk to an iPod.

    There are other alternatives as well. Some of them are free, some cost (mostly under $30). You might just want to search and see what is out there. Different people have different requirements when it comes to an iTunes application.

    Another Digital Camera Thread - Point and Shoot

    That is amazing, considering the price and the size. I will definitely recommend that camera if someone is looking for something under $150.

    Sure, there are a bunch of programs that will work. Try: http://www.ephpod.com/ I believe that's what DD uses as well.

    MP3 player rant

    I understand your diversion of WD hard drives, sony optical, etc. And I also wouldn't buy an iPod if I wanted to do voice recording. But, as an MP3 player I feel it is a solid piece of hardware. I have had very few problems with my iPod Mini. I have dropped it numerous times onto hard objects...

    Windows *Vista*

    Well, if none of you can think of a good reason to upgrade your corporate clients do you think that big companies with thousands of computers are going to see a good business reason to move to Vista? Can you imagine the cost involved in upgrading the hardware to be able to run Vista? My...

    I did the same thing about a month ago after over 3.5 years. I wasn't married or anything, but we were living together. Hope everything will work out for you. Let us know if there is anything we can do.

    Joomla

    Thanks for the offer. I don't think I will have much of a problem installing it, but if I do I will let you know. I have also heard good things about Drupal. Anyone ever use it?

    Joomla

    The website is already hosted by a small host, and I don't think they will be willing to change. From the Joomla website, it doesn't look like it is all that hard to create an installation. I think I will have to build new templates from scratch and then move all the content over. Has anyone...

    How the front page news works

    Do you think it would be a good idea to give admin rights to some people in other time zones so that news can be updated around the clock, for instance when you are at work or asleep?

    How does everyone feel about the "quick reply" box? I think there might be a bit more opposition involved in removing this. However, I still vote to remove it.

    Should we remove the "Similar Threads" feature?

    That helps a lot with space usage. Thanks Doug. What is with the box that tells you what forum you are in. It is redundant in my opinion and serves us no purpose. It says: Feedback Have something to say? Then let us know! Obviously it says different things depending on what forum you are...

    3 of 4 new disk bad? Scsi parity errors on 3 SATA disks.

    Forum complaints / problems to fix master list

    I vote to remove the Similar Threads box. It is useless in my opinion. I would also like one of the new skins to use darker colors. I'm not exactly sure what skin I used on the old board, but it used dark blues and was much easier on my eyes and brain.

    I made a few changes...

    Merc, I am going to agree with that sentiment. I would also like to have some navigation at the bottom of the threads, not just at the top. I like to be able to navigate back to a specific forum after I finish reading a thread. Is there still a way to spellcheck my posts?

    Irony at its finest

    I like crappy WD SATA hard drives... Pr0n is so easy to obtain with Bittorrent that I could fill a huge drive in a matter of days.

    Irony at its finest

    I make sure to only store pr0n on my Western Digital hard drive. While this could be a devastating loss, it is nothing like losing personal photographs or MP3s.

    Something Random

    Here is a site that lists MPG for some popular models of motorcycles. I would still take those numbers with a grain of salt. You also have to take into account the fact that you can't carry anything with you or anyone else (well one person, but having ridden as a passenger on a bike, it is not...

    Joomla

    Content Management is a powerful way to setup a website so that multiple authors or novices can edit webpage content. This also has a image library, object library, etc. It is not the easiest thing to setup. Most serious websites utilize some kind of content management software. I think a Mambo...

    Something Random

    I don't know if a motorcycle would really save you all that much gas. Maybe if you drive it slowly and accelerate slowly it would save gas. But, most people I know with bikes end up driving them insanely fast and accelerating as fast as possible whenever the chance presents itself.

    I must have done something wrong when signing up. Though, I believe I selected personal storage solutions as well as about 5 other of the options. Maybe they don't like my name or something.

    Registry Cleaner?

    I try not to reinstall any more often than every few years. My last install of Windows 2000 lasted a good 2.5 years, if I am remembering correctly. Sure, it didn't run as well as it did when it was clean and new, but going through the trouble of reinstalling is hell for me.

    Registry Cleaner?

    I would say the best way to clean your registery is a good format and reinstall. I doubt any of the registry cleaners will do much to help you out.

    Do you have somewhere to post the video and one of us could have a try at fixing it for you? If you need to somewhere to host it you can use my webserver. Or rapidshare.de would work as well.

    Looking for a portable speaker solution.

    How about something like this? I know it is a little over your price range, but it always looked interesting to me. I can't comment on the sound quality though as I have never seen/heard one in real life. I have seen this for under $400 various places.

    Turning video 90 degrees

    Your problem might just be with the way you have VirtualDub setup. Make sure you have video set to do a direct stream copy or else you are completely reencoding all of the video.

    MP3 player rant

    I really don't get the whole hatred of iPods. I rather like my iPod Mini. I have had it for over a year and have dropped it countless times and it still functions perfectly. I listen to it for about 2-6 hours per day. I get over 12 hours out of a single charge too.
