I receive an error message when trying to add 12 to the cart, yet no limit is shown. Does Newegg have secret limits?

Greg needs to copy 100GB of files and use a timer. The transfer rates will be accurate and probably lower than Winblows calculations.

Well I don't know what it is properly named nowadays. At one time the advertised price was known as MSRP, but I thought it was rejected. Then MAP became illegal in some areas. The point is that the street prices are obviously less that those used in the tables.

I'd not trust the alternatives. Prices sure are less, even ignoring the actual vs. MAP for OEM.:porc:

I must be the only one that never played that game. I thought it was Ms. pac man that was so famous. :cheers:

I'm not. It's just something different. Normally a click on the image brings up the story, yet it is not linked to anything. :geek:

The Google has gone bonkers; it's playing a vintange video game. :batman:

That is not an issue. There is an eSATA 2-slot toaster connected to one of the hot swap ports. I'm not sure which of four controllers it is on, but at least eight ports in total are used for swappable drives. The 6 ICH ports are for permanently powered devices, including 2 boot SSDs, optical...

The problem with that is eSATA does not supply power. I think they require UBS also in that case.

Old? It starts at only 40 and gets worse.

These look like a good bargain. A dozen would last for a 3-week trip.

Does anyone need a large CF card? It's too bad they are out of stock for a while. :o

Win 2K and XP32/XP64 are as new as I use. I was able to update the XP32, but the XP64 Windows update does not work. It is several years old.

Depending on which computer I use, it is asking for a download. :shake2:

:flower: Didn't we discuss that limitation when the Barracuda IV came out? Or was it another drive? It is totally normal, BTW.

I'm looking for an inexpensive USB 3 setup for 2.5" hard drives, i.e., a PCIe 1x card and enclosure. Are any of them decent? I'm tired of hauling 1-2TB 3.5" drives in a bag or car all day, yet USB 2 is too slow for the routine backups. Thanks.:cyclop:

Medium format is good for low DOF, but IQ of modern DSLRs like the D3X is very good. Autos are often shot in studios with MF however.:hurl:

According to Roger, the front element is $450. I'm wondering whether to just rent the lens. The problem is that I will only use it for two weeks per year, maybe three in some years. I could rent one ten times for the cost of buying, and that includes the insurance.

I'm not very motivated to figure out how to play that video. :) :colors:

The X25-M G2 is now $195. Interesting. I wonder if they will clear out in the summer. :alb:

That is an entirely different problem, maybe emotional distress, brain trauma, degenerative neurological disease, etc. Of course occasional, momentary forgetfulness is a normal part of the aging process. :alb:

Does that go 8x for directors and above?:farao:

You might find a huge clunker of a gaming laptop that has a 1200x1920 display, but the vast majority are not large enough to be divisible by two. :bravo:

Now that Intel is shipping the 25 nm flash, when will we see a better X25-E? :spiderman:

I wish LCDs could display multiple resolutions clearly. Maybe someday.:smile:

F3EG is back to $120 at the Egg also. :reindeer:

Where are you located now?

I used to get fresh bananas in Africa and the caribbean. Bananas are typically awful in North America.

That is the issue. For example, in a 14.1" diagonal dipslay, the 16:9 is 0.56" (7.5%) shorter and 0.33" (2.8%) wider. Overall the display has 5% less area. Typically the pixel pitch is about 0.96x, so that a 16:10 1280x800 LCD is replaced by a 16:9 1366x768 LCD. :@:

The shorter and shorter screens are a ripoff for doing work. The image area is smaller and loss of vertical pixels sucks. I assume he does not need 16:90 to play videos all day? :) :bsmurf:

Well, what do you know? The Acer 1810 seem to be back in stock. It's a few months late. ;) :geek:

I must be seeing something else. They look way overprocessed/artsy fartsy. Pages are very slow, too. :beye:

I dislike EVIL cameras on principle. Once a camera becomes larger than an S90 or so it is not very pocketable. I'd rather use a small DSLR. Howefver, that one with the 16mm might fit in a large pocket. Of course there is niche market for street shooters, where the small size and low cost are...

It would not be economical, but a way to buy something relatively locally. I will be visiting Frys in June on travel. Usually I find some interesting items.

Even back then nobody was taking microdrives seriously. The MD was a dead duck by 2004.

More like the old Compusa than Frys, or somewhere in between?

Somehow the improvement from crummy 6GB microdrives to 10x capacity never quite reached fruition. :monky:

Is that for real? "Taking it back" implies that the announcement was a joke.:idea:

I lived in Europe for years and most refrigerators were tiny boxes, even in a 2-bedroom place. I agree that culture is partly responsible. I also shop for groceries about once per week. It is unpleasant and time consuming enough. :dwarf:

I did not know that company existed. Are the stores worth visiting in the flesh? None are close, but there is one within non-stop driving range on a weekend.

Are they retail drives?

:porc:Ack. Typos galore.

It should be in cubic feet. The imperialistic system is so difficult. :cheers:

It is probably about 90%.

The light bulb is made in China. ;) It is bright enought to locate and remove what is needed in less than 2 minutes. My fridge is hardly excessive. It is a modest one, and only ~19 cubic inches. Even so, it is more than sufficient for individual use by someone that does not like to cook or...

This 40W bulb is a common type in the US. :rambo:

Maybe it is a 1TB drive or half of the heads are dead. :reindeer:

SMDS has been picked up, on regular TV. WTF?

Compatibility is poor. :( And here I was fretting over the large sectors.Compatibility is poor. :( And here I was fretting over the large sectors.
