There ought to be a historical system. :cat:

In laws you mean? ;)

AF-S 60/2.8G macro is really nice.

Are you staying in the UK or going onward?

It is 82 °F in this room now :( and the main computer is 35/52 °C with no loads.

I'd order one, but it is one of those paypal deals.

Is any special bit required? :alb:

In the old days I always used PNG, even for photo TIFFs. It saved about 1/3 of the file size, which was important back in the days of 120 megapixel 6x9 film scans and 80 GB hard drives. :elephant:

That is one of Stormforce SSDs I was considering. The prics are lower than I remember.

They don't know how to save a BMP as a PNG? :cyclops:

Now the price drops again. Why does that always the happen right after I place an order? :-x

I received the other card. RAW is useful to a degree, especially for PP NR. There is about 0.5 to 0.67 EV of highlight recovery possible too.

Yes, travel to that RDU. :brilsmurf:

It's 80°F in here. Someone may have to do an RDU in a couple of days. This sumner is killing me!

What is the setting for 120 nits, or is it that at the 10% setting?

Which body and lens was used?

The monitor is nearly half of that amount. :cat:

Yes. I paid $800 for the original 18GB Atlas 10K 11 years ago. It was about a thousand with the non-RAID SCSI card. The 36GB was rather more than that. I also paid $1200 for two 40x 2GB CF cards 7 years ago. :o

Canvio 750GB

:o It may have been oddly copied from an Outlook e-mail link through the clipboard. I have not been to movie in the US theatres for a long time, before DiCarpio. Maybe the film will be on cable in 2011.

I'd be fine with a quad-core 32nm part that OCs to >4Hz, but I don't think that any of them access 6 memory slots.

Maybe an app that could improve the sound quality?

$100 today with free shipping. :flower: I could swear it was $110 yesterday.

What is DiCarpio, a brand like Acorn or LaCie?

i7-970 is $900 compared to $1000 for the 980EX. What a deal. :smack:

I tried to format the drive and "3 days" to completion were indicated. :lol:

What is the story with the external 750GB drives? Is this Canvio a standard height drive?

Human remains?

What is it like, Altamont? ;)

The windows don't open in my office and there is ground below. Besides, I would not risk injuring anyone.

:rotfl: Try this.

I don't recall the reference. Personal comfort is one thing, but a computer crash is serious. It can't take a shower to cool off. :)

62°F and haxy?

You are right, I should just do it. I feel weird about such wanton destruction even though there is technnically nothing wrong with doing that. I broke massive jugs in the 1980s, but that was a job-related activity. :shake2:

Sure. Maybe there is a drill press hanging out in the back of the closet. ;) :lol:

So how was the concert? :viking:

I live in the city.

I just used the S90 toy. ;)

It requires some sort of Torx driver. I labeled it "Bad." There is really no need to throw it out now. Ultimately most all of my stuff will be disposed.

The digital CLG source (most of the film) has inherently low noise and does not require conversion. Presumably it compresses better as well.

You can see the striations in the lettering even at high density and best quality settings. :cyclop:

The problem is that is is over engineered, not to mention one of those Paypal deals that does not work for me. I'm wondering about adding tape to at least prevent slippage. I've dropped the camera a couple of times already and have not taken it outside yet. Are there any self-adhesive tapes...

I'm too hot now here and it will be worse later. It may be time to shut of the main computer and use a notebook.

Wow. I had no idea that the Germans were so popular up north. :santa:

256GB C300 is about $700 and the smaller ones are slower. :spiderman:

I've no experience but RR looks good. http://www.resellerratings.com/store/Cost_Central

I found the offending drive. On another computer's ICH the SMART data indicates a failed reallocated sector count. :( I'm not sure what data was on the drive and don't have the equipment for drive destruction. What can I do easily to make it practically inoperable? Maybe I could soak it for...

I was thinking that using the 32GB drive as one partition would allow larger OS/apps (maybe Win 7?). The RAIDed new drives would then constitute the page/temp, etc. file area (100+GB total). I don't like XP32 per se, but the XP64 doesn't work quite right. A secondary issue is that a few apps...

The 32GB X25-E has two partitions, first for the XP32 OS and second for page/temp/small critical file use. The second partition easily overflows on pans/stitching and sometimes in PS. The 80GB X25-M G2 has only the one partition for the XP64 and no page file. It has plenty of free space, but...

Then why am I doing this? :dunno:
