Windows doesn't allow you to bind an application to an IP address, so you can't force your web browser to use the IP with internet access, so that's not at all unexpected. One way you might be able to make it work is if you disable TCP/IP for the two network interfaces that directly connect...

Eh... Some of that drive's tech sounds a bit smoke and mirror-ish... I'll let someone else beta-test it.

I heard it still sucks on OS X if you have a pile of files. My strong suspicion is that in general most Apple users don't have massive collections of music. While I begrudgingly have used iTunes to load music onto my iPod, but I couldn't imagine actually trying to use it listen to music.

Weird.. Mine does the gapless detection routine on my 25k files in a few minutes. I was able to go from no music loaded in iTunes to completely done loading my collection (artwork, gapless detection, etc...) for the ~25k files I fed it in no more than 30 minutes. It might have been even less...

Around 25k songs. The UI isn't exactly peppy, but I'm not using the UI for anything other than importing my music and hitting the sync button. It only ran the gapless detection when I first imported all my music, but iTunes was basically locked up while it scanned all my music. If it deletes...

Well, as an update, Songbird does not work with my 7th Gen iPod Classic. Rather than try every other iPod management program to find one that works, I decided to give iTunes a shot. It's a bit quirky though not too bad. It had some odd music sorting characteristics based on the "tags" that I...

You don't have an onboard PCI-e NIC in your system? In terms of throughput the onboard Realtek variety do as well if not a tad better than the Intel PCI-e variety (in terms of performance consistency across a variety of NICs on the other side). The Intel PCI-e cards have lower CPU usage but...

What about the 2TB Samsung 5400RPM drives?

Well, that certainly explains your prolific quasi Lost6200-esque posting.

Late 90's I think. You can watch it for yourself. link

You never know... the view down by the river at night might be quite nice. :rabbit:

I hibernate my two Dell laptops. I use shut down on my work laptop because hibernation doesn't work after they put PGP Disk encryption on it. Oddly enough my Acer 1810T will boot into Windows 7 faster than it will come out of hibernation, so I use shut down on it also. My main server stays on...

Can't you do that by setting a different non-routable IP block on the Netgear? IE: Plug the WAN port on your Netgear into the LAN side of your Actiontec. Configure the Netgear to pass out 10.1.1.x (or similar) to anyone who connects to it via DHCP (assuming you're using 172.16.0.0 -...

Don't feel too bad. He's got one killer conversion van. ;)

I hope you have a video card with HDCP.

:( That sucks. My condolences on your loss.

Why take care of your stuff when you can just replace it when it fails? :owneddnce:

Remind me never to buy a used car from you if you're too lazy to change the oil at regular sane intervals.

Well, it is German. :p

You just go to the sound stage in Hollywood where they faked the landings?

Check your battery terminals for tightness.

:idea: You mean he doesn't live on the moon?

Ask ddrueding. He's already bought one.

Yeah, the whole fake IMAX thing is lame. I only go to the real 70mm film one at The Henry Ford. They're not showing Avatard though.

Glad to see you all have the spirt of season flowing through your veins. :p Merry Christmas everyone!

How close are you sitting to your 37" TV?

I wasn't aware NASA had any launches in the last few days. :skepo:

If you use Tran-Siberian Orchestra - A Mad Russian's Christmas like almost everyone else who does one of these I will personally hunt you down and bury you. :cursin: Choose your music wisely. ;)

Well, it's a little sluggish on this old Pentium-M accessing the files over 802.11g, but not horrible. You still l can't exactly test out the iPod syncing without having an iPod for the software to see. It looks like you just drag content from the library to the iPod and then it does its...

I'm trying out the Songbird software right now. We'll see how it behaves after importing a boatload of mp3s.

And just in case anyone thinks I'm morphing into Udaman part deux and have a raging stiffy for all things Apple, I have given this a lot of thought and can't come up with a better solution than the 160GB iPod as much as I dislike Apple. A few people did suggest Songbird + the iPod plugin for...

It must be nice to have more money than brains. :p

Yeah, unfortunately that wouldn't work for me. It doesn't have 3-way crossover capability or time alignment. :( I thought about the whole carputer with monitor thing, but there's not room in my dash for a monitor + my current HU and I haven't seen any satisfactory way to get 3-way crossover +...

I guess that's a possibility assuming I can live without seeing the screen...

Well based on what I read, the Zune requires proprietary software to load music on it just like the iPod and people say it sucks worse than iTunes. The Archos devices are quite a bit larger and the reviewers don't have nice things to say about the UI. What aftermarket HD based head units are...

No, but to what? There aren't any other 160GB players out there.

Temptation is indeed cyclical. :diablo: I'm back on this idea for getting a lot more music into my car without having to burn CD-R's full of mp3's. I did some extensive digging on the various apps, and there's no clear winner IMHO on how to get music onto an iPod without using iTunes under...

I wouldn't recommend any Plasma TV for PC monitor use. Burn is is quite real and the changing white luminance tied to power saving would drive you nuts.

Copystar is Kyocera's copier brand. It's amazing what you can find when you do a Google Product search for 11x17 copier. :p

It turns out that you must not have looked very hard. The Toshiba E-Studio 166 can copy 11x17 and appears to be available for under $800. The Copystar CS-1635 can copy 11x17 and appears to be available for under $600.

I thought they used polarized glasses and dual projectors, not the red / blue crap? :confused:

I think you might as well have asked us to find you a unicorn.

Should be fine. They're not?

We have full disk encryption on our laptops. :(

I wouldn't touch one of those with a 10 foot pole. We had a few at my last job and they're trash. They had all sorts of problems & bugs, and the super slow refresh rate didn't help either.

He's trying to catch up with Merc.

Then get a 30" 2560x1600 LCD monitor.

I can't believe there's no good solution for this. It looks like SyncBack SE or SyncBack Pro might be contenders.

No because TV and Blu-Ray max out at 1920x1080.

Nah, that's for people with more money than brains.
