WTF? Will they start making Tampex next?

I'm on a limited budget.

I haven't blown anything in Vegas.

???

What place do you think it is?

What about the random writes? How do you compare them directly to the old X25-E?

Now it surpassed Titanic in only 39 days. Obviously tickets are much more due to inflation and the 3D, but people are crazy for it.

Hehehe. :pirate: :flower: :reindeer:

The total is now $28.6K for two, including air. That's still better than $23.8K for one.

Man you are a gambler. A rejected drive, ewww.

That sounds like a good plan, at least for domestic use. I hope someday to again go on a vacation where there is time for that. The days are always too short or I'm driving a couple hundred miles in the high light. On vacation this year wakeup times will be 3:45 to 4:30 AM every day.

Yes, but it is rather limited. More often the threat from one large company to sue another will result in an advert being voluntarily pulled. Sony has provided the pixel count and dimensions, so I don't think there is any claim to be made. To add insult to injury the new MS Office has the...

13" 1600x900 is crap, but that is unfortunately the new reality for all makers.

Why? I thought you worked mainly at a corporate office.

One blue pixel off to the side is stuck.

I had a car with that kind of compressor once. The clutch stuck in the on position, so basically it would try to run all the time. :( It cost US$800-900 about 15 years ago.

I'm not expecting any insanity, but you never know. :)

I was seriously considering it as a side business, which may not have been the best idea anyway. In 1980 there were not many commercial high-speed chargers for various NiCd cells. (Most were time and temp back then.) I made several prototypes of smart chargers and did a lot of testing. Later...

Yes that is the case. http://www.storageforum.net/forum/showthread.php?p=125411#post125411

As far as I can tell the Z has only 2 USB ports, unless they are hidden somewhere. I can't even find the Z manual. Who designed the website? It's even worse than Dell.

I've only seen about 12 pairs of shoes, half of which have treads for hiking. ;)

I suppose there will be major hardware refreshes this quarter with all the new CPUs/chipsets.

That does look like flashy executive crap.

Well it is a very large difference in cost (80%). I could not justify going alone.

So that was no vacation? :lol:

Anybody go on vacation with a lesbian? I can't decide.

Yes, but fortunately it was not work related.

So what does that leave, Dell, Lenovo and HP? Where do Acer and Asus fit? Maybe other Japanese brands like Toshiba and Fujitsu have support, but only in Asia.

Of course that makes sense. I am uncomfortable with walking very far. A few weeks ago I parked three times in the same general shopping area. :blue:

Are you an open windows/top down guy?

That is awful. I thought you had an advanced engineering degree or was that someone else? Do you have management experience that can get you into a less physical activity? Have you tried various HIDs and considered speech to text software? I know it was tough for me last year after the...

I don't know sh*t about Ubuntu, yet I don't blame the product for my lack of knowledge. :) It does not bother me in the slightest. (I know much more about Bantus. ;)) Do you see it as a weakness that you cannot instantly understand something without education or help? Maybe it is some...

And boring. ;) I've lived long periods in hot climates, cold climates, 4-season climates, and moderate climates. In all cases I use the auto's heat/AC system.

I had a notebook with the swappable bay. Unfortunately the smaller ones don't usually have that feature now. I'd much prefer a second hard drive to an optical drive or second battery. I'd even be willing to remove a permanent optical drive if I could get a second HD in there. In my current...

Nobody has patience any more. Obviously it is not a product developed for new consumers. Read books, take classes, join an online community, etc.

Was it designed to be that way? What were the user requirements specs?

Don't blame the OS. Perhaps you can get some training through your employer.

Thanks. The mouse feels heavy with two cells. It works with only one cell, which is odd since the battery compartment as the typical 2-cell series orientation. I guess not.

Maybe playing CDs? ;) They still make and sell them. Everyone does not like the crappy-sounding mp3 downloads, nor want to spend effort on that. Probably true, but the cost difference is small. Most office notebooks include an optical drive as standard.

The pros often do that. I don't have a crew to help me haul stuff around and I'm usually only in one location for 1-3 days.

So many different notebooks for very different needs. I would rarely have time to watch anything when on vacation. There is rarely enough time to get a decent night's sleep. :) If it is close to the summer solstice, just forget it! An easily removable HD for field replacement would be really...

My criteria are dimension specific since a notebook is technically a non-critical item compared to bodies and lenses. I have more difficulty every year in getting the gear onboard.

I'd actually prefer a notebook with no optical drive at all. I only need one to install software, mainly when the notebook is new. That could be done with a USB optical drive. I doubt that apps will need to be installed from a BD for several years. I could also use an external for that as...

I give up on the discontinued netbooks. Now what do you think about the P770? There is not a lot of information, but the Core i7-640UM is interesting.

How well does an Eneloop function in a mouse?

I was disappointed by the 50/1.4. It's not sharp until 2.5 and not the greatest at f/8 either. Yet there were not many other good options then. Now there are better 3rd party options.

That was too clever for the masses. I meant appropriate.

Have you had surgery on the right hand yet?

:dunno:

I don't know what more to say. If trial and error is your method it will work out eventually.
