Normally I carry a TK11 onboard with one spare cell in a plastic container. It is set to low power and the switch end cap is unscrewed enough so that it would not turn on accidentally even if pushed.

That powerful light would be good for finding bodies at night. I don't know if FAA accepts the light with lithium batteries in the checked luggage. Too bad something like it is not commercially available.

There were 30 discs and there are about 10 left now. I will not be buying more. :lol:

NEC 90 series are really good, but their consistency has been slipping. Some of the other brands use their panels in lower-priced units. It goes without saying that the store should have a good return policy.

Bad link. :(

What are you using for the controller side? I was unable to achieve particularly good results on FW400, so I stopped using it.

OK, I installed it. But really, why should that be necessary just to test the internet speed? Does the newer Windows or latest Mac OS X have that pre-installed?

What a bunch of bullsh*t! I don't need no stinkin' bars; I want a strong signal.

It was all over the internet and the other forums I frequented at the time, too.

:rofl: I was waiting for that last night.

TI sucked with many Oxford bridges so I used VIA-based PCI cards for FW400 back in the early-mid 2000s.

I tried three computers and there is nothing but a gray square. :x

Yeah, my computer is screwed. :frusty:

It does not work. :bsmurf:

How long does it run at full power?

I returned to v.6 and that works too with the LS base app. So David was right about the Lightscriber, as is often the case. :)

:cursin: One of my favorite forums was closed down without warning, solely due to excessive spammers. :(

That is far too large for my needs. I like the size of the TK45 at 8 x 1.5". presumably the head is wider than the 1.5" body, but that is fine.

The burner was supplied with a Nero 9 essentials. Installation was over 1GB. WTF? If that is the essentials, what is the full package? :o

Aha! I downloaded the generic lightscriber driver and now Nero has an option for the labels. However, the text is pixelated and the color is grey regardless of the font color (blue). :bleh:

My 2005 Dell was a lot better than the 2009 one, so I'm not sure that problems in the 2003-2005 models are meaningful now.

No, but I'm nervous.

I'd rather have something more practical. What do you think about the Fenix TK45 R5 flashlight?

Wait for USB 3.0 readers. They are coming.

What does that mean for people like me with a limited $5K budget? Can I put together a system with 6 channels of RAM for less dough than the standard i7 980EX on X58?

Not I, but some people use them for videos. The closest I get is using a flashlight to look for leopards or ellies or hippos, etc. around the tents at night.

Do I need to print the lightscriber side first? How are they correlated?

I wanted to print the disc name on the lightscriber side. However, I burned a disc and it completed as per usual without any dialog box for the lightscriber.

IT workers? I would expect that most large corps would have the systems locked down tight for the vast majority of employees.

I broke down and purchased a small spindle of DVDs. However I'm not sure which software to use. Are there any free ones worth trying? Google searches end in a morass. :errr:

I simply want brighter flashlights with longer run time. :) Other LEDs hold no interest for me.

What?:dunno:

The FASS is getting cheaper by the minute. I've been happy with the FALS (only 1TB), which have been doing most of the heavy lifting for the past year or so. Decisions, decisions. :erm:

Isn't it apparent from the connector? Other than the Macs have there been any PC notebooks with 1394b?

He's been gone from SF for over three months according to the Statistics page. Have you tried e-mail?

Yikes. It is not a very stable design, not to mention the high profile vulnerability.

AT AT?:geek:

Ah, so. That is lame indeed, but logical and cheap. :rabbit:

The lower end Panasonics are not very competitive any more. I almost bought several in the early to late 2000's. I wonder if Panasonic will even stay in that segment. :sqnt: The real Toughbooks are mainly for commercial/institutional use.

I would just add some extra 120V circuits and switches, then install local lighting. In some years you may find an extreme, customized system rather obsolete or out of style.

How do the images stay in register if burned twice? Another question is where is the laser for burning the label side of the disc? I don't see anything different from other optical writers.

Remind me not to go to Singapore. :idea:

Thanks. Tell us how you really feel. :mrgrn:

The new drive has a lightscribinator or something like that. Does anyone use that function and is it worth buying the special discs?

How well does it handle strong earthquakes?

Fly JTR out there and have him design you a professional system. :)

Are you putting 8 gazillion LEDs all over the place? :farao:

Results were inconclusive, so I can't decide what to do in the short term.

Wow, no smoking in NC! I will go there in the next month or so. 8)

Duh. It is working now. The screen is very blurry though.
