Uh... You must be smoking something good. If GM wants to keep selling 20MPG 400+HP car they have to offset them with sales of 40+MPG cars to put the CAFE average where it has to be. It's not good enough to offer 40+ MPG models. They have to actually sell them. CAFE standards are based on...

They're going to make sure that the only cars you can buy are the little unsafe death traps people aren't willing to buy now on their own. They're going to take away our freedoms by doing it in the name of the environment. :arge:

Sony has too many irons in too many fires and they're not complementary irons. This has crippled them. Their content creation side (music labels and movie studios) have prevented the release of or crippled their electronic products. Sony could have been the dominant company for personal music...

We should mod the boards software to refuse his posts unless they pass a spell check. Firefox has a spell check built right into it so I see no reason for such awful spelling unless he's intentionally trying to be rude. :bstd:

[twitterific post]I have not used them before. Sorry[/twitterific post]

This cable looks like the most cost effective match to the WD one. It's actually a 24/28 AWG cable (fatter than the WD cable), but 2" shorter at 16". I found another 24/28 AWG cable that's 18" long like the WD, but it is $$$. link

I ended up ordering this IDE one and this SATA one. I don't understand the whole y-adapter thing. I mean, I know how it works technically, but I don't understand why they're needed when commercially sold drives don't need them. For example my 500GB WD Passport Elite has only a single short...

What, you couldn't talk him into an i7? :poke:

Yeah... Just wait until you see all his advertising and spam... :rofl: j/k

I'm not that ashamed of my online behavior here. :tgif:

I got a friend to register today. Getting him to post may be another thing. ;-)

Well, either I picked the cream of the crop, or no one uses 2.5" enclosures. :-?

Class 1 vs. Class 2 likely.

:confused: No, that's not what I see. I've never see a smilie window on this forum on any browser or PC. Edit: I figured it out. The editor was set to basic instead of standard in the options section of my user control panel.

I'm looking for two 2.5" external enclosures. One SATA and one IDE. This one seems to be the one to get for a SATA drive with USB 2.0 interface. This one looks like a good possibility for a SATA drive with a USB 2.0 and eSATA interface. However an eSATA cable can't supply power (per...

Can we get a smilie box next to the message window when replying. We've clearly got a variety of smilies, like :rolleyes: , :evil: , and :p , but I'd like to see all our options.

:confused: I can get 100MB/sec copying between my two 1.5TB 7200.11 drives.

What are you guys using Spinrite for anyhow?

That seems to be his endgame. He's constantly poking a sharp stick in the eye of the few people who don't have him on ignore. :rolleyes:

Ddrueding might be able to give you a good deal on a well abused car if you're interested. :p

I use a Logitech BT keyboard and laser mouse for my HTPC. I never found the RF stuff to have a long enough range to be useful. Especially the mice.

Good for flashlights, not so useful for a netbook.

And of course it will have 5 platters.

You guys must have a lot more "data" than I do. I have a server in the basement with 2 RAID arrays. One is a 2TB RAID-5 array consisting of 5 500GB IDE drives on a 3ware 7506-8. The other is a 1TB RAID-1 array on the Intel ICH10R. I have the really important stuff backed up onto two...

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?

Even if we were to accept your post as absolutely truth (which its not) it still doesn't explain why people are moving out of blue states in droves.

So do what lots of other people are doing. Move out of California to a red state and then keep voting for the same type of politicians who brought the lunacy to California while hoping that somehow the same type of politicians will achieve an alternate outcome in the new location. ;)

Your insurance isn't going to drop you after one accident. I don't know what planet you're living on Uda. They'd rather raise your rates and milk you for some coin.

The old security through obscurity argument. Apple relied on this one for a long time.

If that's what he's really after he could just have Lost6200 transcribe them for him.

Is he going to have it wheeled in on a dolly for dramatic effect with the jury? :D

So is USEnet. ;)

Ok, so I now have 2GB of RAM and a 500GB HD in my netbook. Mwahahahaha... :evil: ;) PS: And a special thank you to Samsung for not including an XP disc or any sort of disc to restore the system from. :mad:

It's probably good for ~30HP. Considering the motor dyno'd at the wheels what Hyundai claimed at the crank an extra 30HP it's pretty serious. A 306HP at the crank V-6 will put down 240HP to the wheels with a manual transmission. Remove the crimp and the 4 banger will be right there with it.

Does your printer have a duplex unit? Get all the files in a directory, select all, right click and pick print. Come back later...

sure

Get the turbo 4 Genesis and then fix the crimp in the exhaust giving you the same power as the V-6.

I donut underrstabd wahts so hard to underrstabd. I have a the equivilint of a netwurk closet in the bassmint. Their are sevural patch panils, a switch, cabil modam, and oen server. What dont yu get?

I just checked and the joist run the opposite way from what I remembered. It looks like two of these with a 2x4 (or similar) fastened to each side and then to the joist overhead might do the trick.

I plan to finish the basement down the road, and I would like to minimize the amount of fastening thing to the concrete. I don't intend to put any computers in the rack. It will just be patch panels and a switch and maybe a shelf or two to hold a cable modem, etc.

Are you really trying to make sure that no one reads any of your posts? I only ask because it sure seems like you are.

All my music is ripped, but I don't watch my DVDs enough to make it remotely worth the effort or the space. That is the primary reason why I quit buying them. I rarely rewatch 'em.

That's ghetto-tastic, but it just might work.

Supply and demand at work...

I've got a few 1U and 2U items (switch, CAT6 patch panel, F connector patch panel, etc) in my unfinished basement that I want to put in a rack instead of having them sitting on top of a box, but I don't want any sort of large floor standing unit. Wall mounting into the concrete walls in my...

I wonder if the mini PCI-e slot can be used for something else... :)

I've basically been getting my Blu-Ray discs from Netflix. I have mostly stopped buying media.

So, I cracked open the N120 today to see how to get at the HD in anticipation of swapping in a 500GB 5400 RPM HD. I found an empty mini PCI-e slot labeled for HSPDA, a joke of a "subwoofer", and a SIM card slot.

That's 1/8th of the chip. Which is a fully utilized half of a Hyper-threaded core.

Both. One is in my HTPC which is connected to my 57" RP-CRT Hitachi in my great room via HDMI. The other is in my Q6600 (office PC) which is also connected to the 52" Samsung LCD in my office via HDMI.
