    Any experiences with KM266?

    I've never had any problem with the video on this board. I haven't used in on any super high-end monitors. But, it looks fine on midrange 17" monitors. I never tried any games though.

    Ever wanted to know the thoughts of car fans?

    The noise is the coolest part about driving a Mustang. What sports car have you driven that has a good ride. Let me list some that I have driven and then how well they ride. 1991 Toyota MR2 - Ride is slightly better than the Mustang, probably can be attributed to the not as low-profile tires...

    Any experiences with KM266?

    I have used the Asus A7N266-VM for about 6 systems now. I have had nothing but the best of luck with it. I can buy it for $70 and it comes with integrated grachics, lan, and sound. Plus it has optical and coaxial digital audio outputs. Installation is a snap.

    Ever wanted to know the thoughts of car fans?

    I had black leather in my Mustang and when the sun was shining on the car for more than a couple hours those seats would be so hot that I couldn't even sit on them. Never again will I get black leather. I like leather just fine, just not black leather (except my coat).

    Ever wanted to know the thoughts of car fans?

    I never said that there were other people on the road. Therefore the only people that were endangered were the ones in my car (me). The tires that were on the Mustang were 'Z' rated. I could have gone 137mph without having to worry about them. Have you ever driven above 90mph? It's not like...

    Ever wanted to know the thoughts of car fans?

    That was in the Mustang. The Jeep can't go faster than 105mph. It's still cool with the top off at that speed.

    Ever wanted to know the thoughts of car fans?

    You aren't that old e_dawg, it's fun to do stupid things in cars. The worst ticket I have ever gotten was going 101mph in a 65mph zone. I was going 120 but was able to slow down to 101 by the time the cop got his radar on me.

    Ever wanted to know the thoughts of car fans?

    Front wheel drive on a performance car is horrible. 4WD is boring in a sports car. True sports cars always are RWD. As far as I'm concerned 4WD is for lots of snow or lots of mud. FWD is for people that don't know how to properly drive a car in inclement conditions.

    Ever wanted to know the thoughts of car fans?

    To add to the sound that certain engines make my friend had a Toyota MR2 turbo. Although it was as fast as the Mustang it just didn't have the same kind of sound as the Mustang. A four cylinder engine will never be able to reproduce the same kind of sound that an eight cylinder engine can...

    Ever wanted to know the thoughts of car fans?

    The 4.6L Mustang engine is most certainly not balanced, but it has the sweetest sound when you push the accelerator to the floor. The low-end torque on that car was amazing considering that it did not have that much horsepower (215). When someone else would drive away in my Mustang and I was...

    Ever wanted to know the thoughts of car fans?

    I kinda forgot about how fun the Jeep is in the Summer with the top off. If the winter ever ends I will be able to experience it again. Last summer I left the top off for about 2 months straight (except when it rained).

    Ever wanted to know the thoughts of car fans?

    Yeah, I sold it last February and bought the Jeep. It was a '97 GT 5-speed, and was a lot of fun. But, everything that could go wrong with it did. I think the water pump broke about 6 times. The last straw was when the intake manifold cracked on the highway, and threw coolant everywhere, and...

    Ever wanted to know the thoughts of car fans?

    IIRC the original Wrangler engine was a 1964 design, it went through some changes when Chrysler bought Jeep in 1987. But the original engine is still based on the 1964 design. I'm not totally sure about any of this though, if someone else knows then tell me.

    Ever wanted to know the thoughts of car fans?

    If you want to talk about archaic engines, you should have a look under the hood of my Jeep Wrangler. They have been using the same basic engine design for about 20 years. That engine gets absolutely horrible gas mileage. 12mpg in the city, not much better on the highway. But, I don't drive...

    Soyo BayOne AVI Plus Flash Reader/Writer - Pretty Cool

    Who needs to read 6 kinds of flash cards. I got a cheap USB2 CF reader for less than $20. All in one things suck. Just like that AIW Pro 4MB that I spent $260 on about 6 years ago. That was useful for about a year, too bad I didn't just buy a separate TV tuner.

    I've heard of him, but I never have listened to his shows. I hate talk radio, I generally listen to 97.9 WLUP. I'm sure you listen to 98.7 and used to listen to 97.1 before it was bought out a few years ago. (My dad was extemely pissed when that happened.)

    If you were to buy a laptop: brand?

    I wonder how slow that Via CPU is? My guess is not too quick. At least it's small, light, and cheap though. Those attributes are just as important as a fast CPU. And it's probably a better option than buying some 500Mhz IBM on eBay for the same amount of money.

    How do you get rid of the stupid Macromedia Flash pop-up?

    Ya, but the problem with that mindset is that the sites that use flash will never listen to you and therefore you won't get to see their content. However annoying a flash laden site is there is still some god content out there that uses flash, and I want to see it.
