Yes, the problem is there's no middle option. You can get a cheap battery (likely crappy) made in China, or hand over your firstborn for a genuine OEM battery (also made in China). Why isn't there a equivalently good non-OEM battery that's somewhere between the two in price?

I recently moved my pagefile under Windows XP to my Intel 80GB G2 SSD. I had left it on one of my two spinning disk RAID-1 arrays, but under some uses like copying data between the two spinning disks arrays system would lag as the pagefile would get starved for access. After I moved it and...

Have to ??? I think you left off the end of your comment.

I wonder how I missed that the first time around. That's really funny in a sick twisted sort of way. FWIW, I have a still working DRU-500A.

Adherence to standards at work.

Which is why you can disable the 120Hz processing if you like and get a proper 5:5 pulldown (judder free) on 24Hz material.

You're not even going to tell us what you bought? :nono:

I've now got a disk I'm pretty happy with. Top Menu: Clonezilla Live Menu: HDD Utilities Menu:

It turns out they can be added to the XBOOT. They added using Grub4dos emulation. Of course the Samsung ES-Tool ISO doesn't ultimately work because Samsung is a bunch of :bstd: who apparently think it's 1998 and we're using IDE CD-ROM drives. So they try to load a CD-ROM driver (which fails...

Somewhere around 3ware. ;) j/k... I'll assume you meant RAID-1, not 0. Is there a reason you didn't just plug in the two new 1.5TB HD's create a new 1.5TB RAID-1 array and just clone over the 400GB "drive" to the 1.5TB "drive"? Your method won't work because the RAID card only exposes a 400GB...

I don't know. I'd look into the cost of a Squaretrade / MACK warranty and benchmark that price against what Best Buy (or whoever is pushing their in store warranty). There are also sometimes coupons for discounts on the Squaretrade warranties too.

When it works. :viking: Of course it also has the side effect of dumbing down the populous too. :erm:

I subsequently discovered that you can keep adding to an existing compilation. Just open XBOOT add the .iso you want to add and point it to your destination USB drive that already has your compilation on it. Keep in mind if you've customized the menus structure you may have to mess with them...

XBoot v1.0.0.0 beta6 is out.

I wouldn't. Especially not at the prices most stores try to sell them at. If you really want one get a Squaretrade or similar one when they're on sale for a fraction of what the store wants. Typically you automatically get 1 extra year through your credit card company anyhow.

Why can't you use the TV's speakers? Or the audio output from the TV?

You're quick :lol:

Apples and oranges my friend, apples and oranges... If I don't get out of the way of the flash I have a high risk of dying. If I do nothing about global warming... Well, basically nothing changes. A more appropriate analogy would be the the person who sees the flash flood and start taping up...

What about one of those powered soundbar thingies? link

How would it know though? The subdomains are how they have better control over brightness and get 10 bit color (or better) and improve the viewing angle.

I don't think it means it won't work. I think it means the array could have worse IOP capability with very small writes.

1) Should be possible. How about measuring the temperature of other planets where there isn't human activity. If they're also increasing in temperature at the same rate then I think we can rule out human activity as the cause. Or, how about measuring solar output? 2) Causation is very...

Proof of causation rather than correlation.

Well, the fact that there's nothing that can happen that would make it "bad data" in the eyes of those people who think it's "good data" makes me suspicious that it's not actually good data.

How is it a straw man? Just because you don't like the facts presented doesn't make it a straw man. The fact is they decided to build desalinization plants that were unnecessary. The fact is they let people build on a flood plain. The fact is last spring they refused to release water from...

Why ever not?

The gaps between the pixels are larger on a plasma than a LCD.

Well, I'd rather not throw $20 away. I don't need it today and it routinely goes on sale for $180, so I'll wait.

They're well on their way to being dinosaurs. They're not as bright as LCDs so I wouldn't advise one for a bright room.

For $180 with free or $1.99 shipping? :bomb:

42-46" per his first post.

Well, DDR2 price at least seem to have plateaued. There haven't been any notable changes downward in the last 4-6 weeks. DDR2 also seems to be in the process of being phased out. That amount of the higher capacity 4GB DIMM based kits available at Newegg keeps getting closer to 0. I haven't...

I guess I waited too long on the HL-5370DW. It's not $179.99 at Newegg & Amazon anymore. :cursin: Time to wait for the price to drop. :idea:

From what I found Samsung doesn't make a networked, monochrome, duplex'ing printer.

Well, I stand corrected! Your anecdotal evidence clearly trumps my anecdotal evidence. Clearly the people having to fix them / get them fixed after they're breaking have no idea what they're talking about since there are youtube videos involved. :rolleyes:

Yeah, until you get into the larger sizes.

If you use WASAPI as your output device in Foobar2k you should definitely get unmolested audio.

What OS?

FWIW, our IT people have said the X201 isn't very durable.

But it's got a 230mm fan! :bstd:

Intel's own tables have been known to be very error prone. No idea about those specifically though.

There is, but I clicked the apply to all folders button, so any that were different would have been updated. Best I can tell there's a phantom 31 day extension to what you set it to. So, I just need to set it to 2 months instead of 3 and it should do what I want. :bibber: This is Outlook 2007...

Well, you have different needs than I do. :salut:

I can set it to anything I want. However, I'm not sure I want to keep stuff on the exchange server for such a short period of time. That would have the effect of removing messages from my Blackberry as well. :x That's not exactly an option for me. :nono:

So I'm getting a nicely equipped T410 courtesy of my job (for work).

I don't want to manually move stuff, especially when it's all nicely sorted. It looks like the problem is how MS is measuring the dates or something. When set to 10 weeks (ie: 70 days) it archived e-mails earlier than 10/8/2010. That's 102 days, not 70. It looks like it adds an extra month...

This really should be that hard, but leave it to Microsoft to make this incomprehensible... My company purges e-mails older than ~90 days from the Exchange server about once a month. They also sent out all the laptops in the field set to auto archive every 7 days messages older than 6 months...

It could just be a poor quality knock off battery. :scratch: There's nothing magical about the OEM one from Lenovo.

Isn't that were non-OEM compatible cartridges come into play? They're ~$30 for the TN650 compatible (8k) on ebay. And, I don't really see how a home user will consume the drum with a life of 25k pages with typical usage pattern so the cost of those seems less important (though they're only...

More likely the capacity rating is a lie or derived from different discharge characteristics. If you use a capacity rating derived from a .1C discharge curve, but run the battery at 1C discharge there will be a difference. The magnitude of the difference is partially dependent on the quality...
