If I was, I would let you know. How does it feel to have leaders with no spine?

In contrast to the rest of you, I won't be watching the Democratic retort.

Progress and evolution. Generally, each drive gets a little faster, or has a few extra features. According to NEC's site, there are no differences between the 3550a and the 3540a.

I use the latest EAC with the accuraterip plugin.

I have not looked at the version that comes with Nero 7. I was using Recode 2.something that was the latest before 7 came out.

It was actually Macrovision. They claimed he reverse engineered their IP or something to that effect. A good DVD player to look at is the Oppo Digital OPDV971H http://www.oppodigital.com/ It has the best implementation of the Faroudja DCDi of any player made regardless of price.

As of a few months ago when I tested them Recode has identical quality as Shrink (not very good). It just runs quite a bit faster. CloneDVD and DVD2One (1.52) had better image quality than Recode/Shrink, and Pinnacle Instant Copy 8 was the worst. I found that recompressing with CCE does not...

Just DVD Decrypter and make sure you use the .mds file while burning.

I'm pretty sure they're not going to make small ones. They talk about starting at 55".

Use the IBM one. Unless I missed something the IBM tool will work on non IBM drives.

I noticed the price discrepancy on the 3007 the other day too. US model is $2200 USD CAD model is $2000 CAD or ~$1720 USD Strangely, the cannucks can get the 3007 with the same warranty as the US for an extra $199 CAD, so the price in Canada is still only ~$1891 USD or just over $300 USD cheaper.

Your best bet is going to be a light tent and 2-3 color temperature matched lights shining into the tent. Try puting one on a side, one in back, and one on top and shoot in from the front at a downward angle. Simple clamp on fixtures with incandescent bulbs with a metal reflector will do the...

You need a light tent.

Sony discs made in Japan are good stuff also, along with Taiyo Yuden +R's and Verbatim +R's.

Strange, my XP 2200+ with a GeForce 6600GT plays back the 1080p WMV clips perfectly. I think CPU usage peaks around 70%. However this only happens if you disable the overlay for HD playback and set it to use VMR.

Since when does wishing someone a Merry Christmas identify someone as a member of a particular religion. Didn't you read Merc's post about how December 25th isn't a religious holiday?

Only if you buy a Canon outside of the US. For those of use who buy Canon's in the US and would like to print on CD/DVDs, see this site. http://pixma.webpal.info/ I fixed my iP5000 and it works great with my homemade CD/DVD tray.

What there are married people on this forum? I thought it was all disillusioned liberals, who will quickly tell you that wishing someone a Merry Christmas is pushing your religious beliefs on them. Weird... Since I'm not a liberal MERRY CHRISTMAS

The GM Impact EV1 had a cd of .19 and was sold to the public 10 years ago and didn't even burn gasoline. Mercedes it a bit late. :wink:

Don't those Halogen work lights say to not use them indoors?

nVidia has Purevideo, but I have no idea if that's compatible with x64.

That's impossible!!! http://www.lumileds.com/newsandevents/releases/PR42.pdf :wink:

You still don't get it. In my previous post I highlighted that a single terror event could completely turn your numbers around to where terrorism was way up on your list of what kills Americans. That is not the case for nearly every other item in your list. Your numbers are bogus because you...

Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong... Your argument is so flawed it isn't funny. One instance of heart disease puts 1 person at risk, 1 case of cancer puts 1 person at risk. Same for most of the things on your list. One instance of terrorism can kill tens of thousands, if not millions of...

There isn't a sensible, practical, non-paranoid policy when the country to your south encourages and helps people illegally enter your country.

Ahh yes... Let a few terror cells set off a suitcase nuke in LA, NYC, and Chicago and then we'll see how you feel about terrorism, and why we didn't do enough to stop it. By your logic we should stop fighting terrorism and do nothing about it until it kills more people each year than cancer...

If you don't enforce your borders, and your immigration laws you cease to have a country.

All the civil liberties in the world won't do you any good when you're dead.

I guess those people who don't drive cars don't buy alcohol either. I don't understand you guys. People have been trading their liberties for a false sense of security for decades. Why are you guys getting all riled up about it now?

They are out there, but no one is buying them because virtually no one is going to pay 2-3x as much for a SATA optical drive.

Can you show me where she has the right to ride the bus? I must have missed the constitutional ammendment ensuring each of us a right to ride the bus. Do you refuse to subject yourself to a screening by airport security (which involves showing an ID) and expect to be allowed on the plane? Do...

No thanks, I'll pass on Humpedback Mountain...

Oh boo hoo... She doesn't have to show them her ID, and she doesn't have a constitutional right to ride the bus either.

You don't need to spotmeter, you just need to use the sunny F16 rule. "any sunlit object will expose correctly at f/16 when the shutter speed is the same as the film speed ISO" So, set the camera to F16, ISO to 100 and take a 1/100th of a second exposure and viola. After all, the Moon is a...

And you could have gotten it all cheaper at Target.

You and Lunar are trying to argue through the assumption that you're going to use the same lenses on both cameras. I posted a simple fact. 12 is greater than 8. If we are talking about wide angle lenses, which is precisely what my post was about, I stated that a 5D + a 17-40L would likely be...

Sorry, but 12MP is higher than 8MP no matter how you slice it. Now the 20D might have the higest resolution per sensor size, but it is not the highest resolution resolution.

This is the case I have for my Dell 8600. http://us.kensington.com/html/3208.html

I use a Kensington backpack Laptop case for my Dell. It's great! I had my fill of crappy laptop bags at my last job when I had to travel with them. The Kensington backpack bag I got for my personal use is much better. One of my former co-workers used a Swiss Army laptop backpack that was...

Just get a 5D, then you won't need ultrawide angle lenses. A 5D and 17-40L would be a serious combination for the wide angle shooter in you.

Unless I missed something that joules rating is the maximum surge it can take without destroying itself. It will stop stronger surges, but it will sacrifice itself in the process.

It's a Logitech Cordless Desktop MX for Bluetooth I think it's been replaced by a newer model.

I love my Bluetooth wireless Logitech keyboard and mouse that's on my HTPC. The mouse has NiMH batteries in it and it charges in the base when it's not in use.

I've got a lot of the Energizer NiMH AAs. I think they're up to 2600mAH these days.

Yeah, I was just remarking how their are far too many new threads in this forum every day. Why, threads that are almost 2 months old might get bumped to the 2nd page!!!!

It's called "How to hit a pricepoint 101". They make the product cheaper by reducing the warranty. You might have noticed the HD makers tried this stunt a few years ago. If you want a longer warranty on a Dell, you simply buy it.

Odd, I don't use my laptop as a step ladder. I must be missing something.

Had I known this I would have pre-ordered a few to flip on ebay myself.

If your computer accelerates the effect (which most nVidia and ATI cards do) the "eye candy" doesn't slow down the computer, so there's no reason to turn it off.

As long as the card supports Window's alpha blending in hardware you'll be fine. If not all the windows effects will be sluggish.
