I'd really like to check this out, is anyone else having a massively difficult time trying to download it? Neither FF nor IE is able to get a download prompt at all.

Well, we'll see how it goes. I'm trying to keep all my clients down here (Monterey, CA) while going up there, so I won't need that much income, but I better find some solid work or I'll go crazy. The alternative is that I just found a great location for another computer gaming center; it's half...

Well, after some soul-searching, I've decided I don't want to be a corporate drone :o Looks like I'll be trying to start a new consulting business in Eugene, maybe opening a LAN center if I can get the capital. At least Portland International has free WiFi access (posting from gate C1 right...

Just a comment about the commentary regarding the reputation of various companies and/or products. It seems every company out there has had a reason to be hated and a reason to be loved. The reasons to be loved are immediatly visible and the resons to be hated may take months/years to surface...

You need to go to SPCR and build some quieter computers! Then disconnect all the LEDs ;)

Now that I switched to a silent A64 Mobile as my home machine, and ditched the 9800XT for a 9200 w/256MB, My system hardly produces any heat at all. Still have quite a few machines folding, still playing with the ones at the center.

^bump Any suggestions? I've been searching google, and found a lot of people with different hardware and the same problem...just no answers.

Congratulations, Merc. That sounds great. The holidays are always a tough time to be alone, which is usually the case for me, and having something to be a part of is wonderful. Wishing you the best.

Checking in @ 12:19PM...too bad this isn't my first stop. Congratulations to you both; here's to more!

Until it's available in SATA, it does no such thing.

Out of curiosity, what is your subject when shooting single-row vertical pans?

Although I have no personal experience with it, I can look at the specs and be cautious. Dot Pitch: 0.25 is mediocre. Resolution: 1280x1024@76hz MAX, Although this is likely the resolution I'd use, most CRTs don't perform well when operating at max spec.

I agree that 90% of users don't need to break the 1GB barrier any time soon. When regular users ask me what machine to get, I say "The cheapest Dell you can get with a DVD burner and the nicest monitor you can afford". I haven't had a complaint yet. What I mean by "desktop motherboard" is...

Yes, definatly have a good time. I am most jealous.

As far as the "big picture" and upgrading, I don't see a major step coming until desktop-class systems are able to exceed 4GB of RAM. Until then, masses of CPU power and evolutionary and 15k RPM drives are stagnant.

Max Lyon's Digital Image Gallery is amazing...I just blew away 30 minutes surfing around. Really tempted to buy some of his work...

Neat. They say the image is available on the web, but they don't give a link to the site...

Make that a running average of about 55 minutes...

Well, thanks to a significant and most generous amount of time and effort by or most knowledgeable member, time, my stuff is running almost as it should. About every 30 minutes or so it drops for about 15 seconds (just enough time to screw everything). I haven't been aboe to verify whether the...

Just grabbed "Zen Help Desk" (the first link) and had it up and running in about 1 minute. It was fully customised 10 minutes later. I love CSS. Thanks Handy!

I'm looking at doing something similar, setting up an intranet just for handling helpdesk calls. Anyone have a free, pre-made solution? Hosting it via IIS is a must, tying into either MSDE or Access would be ideal.

I recently got one of these it rocks. The only problem is it uses a format other than NTFS or FAT32, so you can't use the USB drive directly with a PC after the mandatory format. Network speeds were OK, though I didn't run proper benchmarks before I gave it to my GF. It manages streaming DIVX ok.

This is the longest I've lived anywhere since I left home (1.5 years), my average is around 8 months. Much of my time was spent "couch surfing" with "girlfriends", and actually living with actual girlfriends. This is the first time I've been on my own in that whole time. I haven't had my name on...

Unless you plan on using a program like daemon-tools, or like backing up your games. Last time I checked, there was no way to bypass the copy-protection for DVDs.

Not that my sister is living in Ithaca I get all the cold stories second-hand. That's close enough, thank you. You guys are frikin' nuts to live in such inhospitable environments. I had to wear a jacket last night...

Still 70F and sunny here...though the leaves have begun to change. I look forward to a good rainstorm this weekend.

Very funny. I like this bit: "But then again, I guess it would make a great tank stand."

Yeah! In sunglasses, too. :o

Though I can certainly appreciate guidelines preventing the "downhill slide" of SF into a pornographic madhouse, I feel that handy's ample warnings are enough to prevent such a slide into evilness.

I wish I had a better one, but the only ones I have are from my sis' wedding.

Well, 90% of the pics are busted, and I can't remember seeing any of them anyway. Here's one...

Very nice. That link is getting major hits?

Yeah, I guess that's where my problem is. In person I'm able to make a good case, but "spin" just isn't my thing.

Does that but the RedHill group at nearly 4700?

Just noticed your projector thread pushed you over. Congratulations!

Thanks everyone for the support and advice. My girlfriend and I have come to the conclusion that this whole long-distance thing is just too hard. Considering that she is a molecular biologist in the middle of publishing a paper, that means I move. Up til now, I've been flying up there every...

Another manufacturer that I trust with a similar product is the InFocus LP640. It's actually $100 less.

Ah, the things we do for love... So here I am trying my best to move to Eugene as quickly as possible. Setting up my business down here so that it can run itself a couple weeks at a time is easy, handing off my consulting clients to colleagues in the area is easy as well, but from what I hear...

A word about resolution: Your laptop is capable of changing to non-native resolutions, correct? If so, choosing a resolution that works best for your application might be more important than matching your laptop's res. What do you plan on doing with the projector? Depending on your useage...

I can see how this would be an issue. I currently have 10 tabs open (3 SF, 2SR, 2 SPCR, 2 /., and a gmail) none of which have killer graphics at all, but there goes 50MB of Mem and 42MB of VM. Though I did have a hard time getting it over 100MB, even visiting the NASA site with tab-happy...

I just upgraded to the newest version (4.something) and it's still working great. If you want more information, go to Jan's thread @ SPCR I am (kind of) interested in playing with some overcloacking potential here, but it doesn't look like multipliers above stock work? I take it the CPU is...

It interfaces perfectly with Outlook 2003 (Through the "tools" menu). That's good enough for me.

Decided to run the "20041108 Firefox/1.0 (MOOX M3)" build with flash click-to-view enabled....this rules.

Sweet. Is the stock 1.0 slow for me in any way? I doubt it. Did I just download the latest trunk build optomised for my CPU? You bet ;)

Pretty sure I'm too far south for even the most impressive displays...had a look last night and saw nuthin.

wow, that's powerful....

IMHO Antec has the bast tech support. 1. Actual techs answer their support line within minutes. 2. E-mail responses have ben within an hour. I'd call that a gold standard for those without support contracts.

Alright....so how can you ell you are getting a rev. E part?

It's a real shame consiering how little that game is played in the first place. I'm thinking f seting up some way to stop/start the service when the game is launched. I already launch the game via .CMD file (that also handles Daemon tools). I just need to look up the syntax and figure out how to...
