New Hampshire is closed this week. Maybe I go next week.

Interesting. Is that with the UPS? Last time I ordered there was some weird shipping carrier.

So which ones do you use?

I wish the DVD players/recorders could be used or upgraded somehow. I have a bunch of them around and of course they don't play the Blue-ray discs.

I am contemplating this one or maybe this one.

Should I buy the Blue-ray, maybe a Toshiba or Panasonic? Are they all pretty much the same?

I've seen that too from displaying the same info on industrial equipnet, but the Tv does not do that. I wonder if the edge line is burning in or if it is all the blacks. However, My 4+ year-old LCD ED TV does not burn in top/bottom blacks from the typical TV shows shown at SD. Edge is smooth...

Hey, I learned the metric system in 1969. :p I use it every day at work, too.

Stretch mode on the other TV makes the humans look very obese. :) Have you ever seen the burn-in/out phenomenon?

No smokers, it was time that mentioned 186 mph.

Perhaps the motherboard is defective. 24GB is no problem on a decent X58 board.

According to the instructions it is not a good idea to watch SD content for a length of time. WTF is that about? Are the blacks on the side supposed to burn in even on the LCD?

They still use miles per hour, rather than m/sec or km/hr?

That is reminiscent of the drivel those bargain basement outfits spout for the deal of the day. :tdown:

DD has piles of 'em. ;)

Has anyone tried it yet? After 26 months I figure it is not worth fixing what is not broken.

Wow, it matches the year. :beer:

Sure, but is 7.9 14.5% faster than 6.9 or is there a greater difference?

I wonder where Tony is or if he still is anywhere.

Whatever new socket they have, 1598 or something.

Even hard drives? :bleh:

Bah, early adoption sucks. :( I'll wait for at least 6 cores. Maybe the chipsets will be fixed by then.

Is Amazon a good vendor? I ordered from them about 7 years ago and the shipping/packaging was not very good. :rnd:

Are the data points on a log scale or similar? They are all clustered below 8.

Why should the box matter, except on retail shelves? :dunno: All that stuff has to go to the recycling bin anyway.

This will become like the HD reliability debate. I'm not sure there is enough data beyond anectdotes. Past performance may not indicate future model reliability.

Where do you buy primary alkaline batteries? Store prices are just crazy, e.g., almost $9 for two 9V batteries. :eek3: My devices consume about 15 of the 9V batteries per year plus over a hundred of the AA and AAA cells. That does not include the rechargeables used for photoflash and...

I had an X25-M G2 for the boot drive before the existence of the force drives and it is OK for that. 2+ years ago most computers only had 8GB of RAM and now many have 16-24 GB so there is even less pagefile usage.

My computer cables are all over the place. Except possibly the analog audio, I don't know why it would be a concern under normal conditions. Do you have some unshielded cables?

I bought it for write/read usage, not to look at. :)

Thanks. However, I've decided to give up on the bedroom for now. :rabbit:

Sometimes I would have 20GB of writes in five minutes. PB is much better. :)

How is that 35TB rating calculated? I have close to 20TB on the 32GB X-25E in slightly over 2 years of use. :dwarf:

That is what I'm trying to figure out. I suppose it depends on the length of the cables. I see some are 25' or 20'.

I'll probably run it around the doorway and along the wall into a computer speaker adjacent to the bed. I may just run one channel and only use one speaker.

Is that the exact same? Sandforce sounds odd.

For what body? It is not a good choice for the APS-C sensors.

Just a regular RCA cable.

How far can I run a line level audio coax cable without picking up to too much noise/hum?

But yours would be all wrinkled and creased. :batman:

And a coat hanger holds up your shirts better than Monstrous Cable. :lol:

Test for what?

Did you buy one?

SandStorm benchmarks are mostly a cheat due to compression and inconsistent at that.

If I had to pick 3 brands from personals, they would be GM, Canon and BMW.

Just ridiculous.

SR609???

You'd want maybe a 1000 subjects for a double-blind study.

Thanks. Not a good sign. :monky:

$0.99 for each of the extra boxes.
