All of your points against outlook are valid, but in my situation, just don't matter. 1&3 only matter if you have slow computers, and I don't. 2 is a personal preference, I also prefer the reply to be on-top in e-mail unless it gets very complex. 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14 only really...

Today I ended up with Norah Jones, Zero 7, and Black Eyed Peas; kind of a different sound from what you guys are after...

I'm betting you'll see an ATI All-in-Wonder card that has a sound card built-in before you see some kind of interface between Audio and Video my different mfgs. Most likely of all would probably be an after market box that injects audio into the HDMI line.

Jamba Juice serves a nice product. Like all chain stuff, the marketing is annoying, but I like the Razzmatazz goodness. It's also right across the street from my house, between the Baja Fresh (Mexican) and the mechanic where my car currently resides :(

My CPU is not supported? WTF? A64 4200+ Server 2003 I didn't install DirectX 6, as the new version is backwards-compatible...right?

I just heard Christmas music in Jamba Juice...this marks the start of my annual hermitage.

At that power, a small hotplate (150 square cm) would use 15,000 watts. That would be 136 amps in the US, or enough to trip 4 standard house circuits simultaneously.

I'd read that ATI had been working on it, but likely had no really useful way to implement it until AMD/Hypertransport showed up. I didn't think this was really a new technology, just a different architecture/implementation of existing manufacturing technologies. Like having an engine optimized...

It's great. When hearing interviews of the Dems talking about what they'll do now that they have control; you can almost hear them grin when they talk about "oversight" and "accountability". I'm really looking forward to some investigations in the next 2 years.

I just got Alpha Centauri, based on the recommendations here. I'll see if I have time to try it out later today.

I've been using Outlook for years. Not because it's the best e-mail client, or because I use all the spiffy features; I don't even have it tied into an exchange server. I use it because all my clients use it, and I need to know how to do stuff with it.

Very cool. Just stick a GPU on Hypertransport and let the games begin ;)

No doubt. I'm sure there is a reason the X-Plosion costs what it does; I'm just observing that I'm not it. For regular 2-channel music, I really can't hear the difference.

I was just screwing around on my computer and decided to enable the on-board "HD Audio" Azalia stuff...It's really, really good. My roomate helped me do a double-blind test of it against my Auzentech X-Plosion card; neither of us could tell the difference reliably.

Isn't it illegal to destroy currency? Not that I especially care, but trying to go commercial with something that encourages illegal activity seems not smart.

Typing on my cell is pretty easy; I got this one specifically so I could text quickly. It also allows me to file my messages, or transfer them into Outlook.

Very tempting CGB; I wonder how much heat it produces, whether it really needs that noisy-looking fan...

I can't stand IM; I haven't used it since I stopped dating college girls. Face to face is ideal; but if you don't have my face, don't expect my time. Therefore all communications that aren't face to face are better off in e-mail or SMS. Phone calls and IM demand immediate response, which I don't...

...and for living 100 miles from work...

At one point, I had 4 HDDs in the bottom, 2 in the middle, and 3 on top, plus a burner. The stock fans are fine and very quiet.

But next to a P180 that looks like such crap...

I actually want DVI for my new LCD monitor (21.3" 1600x1200). I've been using DVI on LCD for about 3 years now; and I can see the difference pretty easily.

I text one person in particular quite often; so as not to disturb her work or her...husband. I ask my clients to send a text instead of leaving a voicemail. It's much easier to keep track of information when it is stored as text.

The smart adapt and the stupid can't; therefore society changes in favor of the stupid.

I would, but now is a bad time. I'm just waiting for the rain to stop so I can crawl under my car and see whats broken :(

Also, Going to anything less than the 750s isn't really an option; I only have about 150GB free. I'm actually thinking I might need a third in there if I can swing it.

I've done a number of mods to the Aria already; mainly in the PSU, but also in the rear exhaust area. Now I think I need to open up the front to encourage air past the hard drives. I assume from the nature of the comments so far that 40C is too hot for HDDs?

I upgraded the PCI slot fan to Antec's larger (2-slot) multi-speed variant. It actually makes very little difference in the HDD temps whether it is on high or low (even though the air out the back is significantly higher). This leads me to believe that I need better air control rather than just...

I've been using Antec NeoPower PSs with my P180s. They work great. Front-Back airflow, modular cables, and the 12v and ATX cables are long enough for all the motherboards I've tried.

Everything is now stable, and I'm planning on adding another video card. The only thing that worries me is that the HDDs run at 40C. 1) Is this too hot for important data 2) If anyone is familiar with the Aria chassis*, can you suggest any mods to keep them cooler. *it's tricky to describe...

Actually, I only need the DVI port. I was planning on getting rid of the VGA plug and ribbon cable to help airflow. This is a very crowded SFF system (see sig), and I don't want to impede anything.

My character is to just be myself...with someone else ;)

I'm looking for a low-power, PCI-E video card with 1x DVI out. If it was low-profile as well, that would be great. Video quality of VGA @ 1600x1200 just...sucks. I'd would be great if it was an nVidia chipset, as it needs to play well with the on-board 6100 (driving the projector @ 1024x768)...

I've been practicing...vodka shots with pickles. That is the way apparently. I just wished I liked pickles ;)

Looks like I'm flying to Moscow in February to meet dad; I hope his reception is warmer than the weather there. How much Russian can I learn in 3 months?

30 year old and under...at least I still have a few more years... :P

It's a joke. When you click on the download button, you end up downloading Firefox from the official servers.

Ahh...so the blog entry is on the Post softening it's observation that the president lied. Got it.

I didn't.

Odd quirk about this monitor. When the monitor goes into standby, the 4-port USB hub turns off. Therefore the USB keyboard and mouse aren't able to wake it :(

The comment about Fox was merely an observation, not pertinent to the rest of my post. Obviously I did read the fax, as I observed that the only "WMDs" they found were degraded chemical weapons. So they were old and not nuclear. Of course we knew he used to have chemical weapons; he's being...

Stereodude: Your link to Fox News (hardly a "fair and balanced" news organization, BTW). Talks about 500 degraded chemical weapons. We already knew that they had had weapons in the past. That's hardly worth invading for. Every other sentance in that paper includes "believe", "could", or...

Clinton's job description did not include "not cheating on his wife". Bush's job description does include "not cheating the people who elected him". Lying to cover a personal indiscretion is irrelevant in the grand scheme, lying to everyone because you think it will give you a political...

OT: I like how the SATA cable comes off the side of the board...

I wouldn't trust Thermaltake or whoever those other guys are on their dB measurements. I can almost guarantee that a Seasonic S12, Nexus, or even an Antec Neo will be quieter.

Thanks all. I actually had installed the inf for the monitor off the CD that shipped with it, and it displayed the monitor name correctly, but it took a new inf from Viewsonic's website to correct the problem. Thanks again.

How do I get 1600x1200 on an integrated 6100 video card? Even 1280x1024 would be nice... Latest drivers; and a few older ones do nothing. Omega has stopped nVidia development. BIOS states that I've allocated 128MB of RAM to video (the maximum), You'd think that would be enough?

...erm, no. I don't like it. Too slow and droning; doesn't go anywhere. Completely uninspiring IMHO.
