I'm not in the business if that is what you meant.

What are you all talking about? I don't know the jokes.

The main system takes well over a minute before it gets past all the BIOS screens and then begin to load the OS. However, booting is rather fast on the small system with only three hard drives and one add-in controller.

I have had few memory compatibility issues with recent laptops. The basic Kingston and Crucial modules are usually just fine.

Wild wild west.

There is nothing wrong with the 5D MK II. It has been one of the most reliable Canon cameras introduced recently. The 5D MK II suffers from average peripheral AF performance and a lame AF pattern like the 5D before it. It is a weak choice for action.

I don't want to use the Hibernation, since that requires an extra 3GB and it appears impossible to move from c: to another partition.

The first question I would ask ask is how much does it matter? Was a proper assessment of user requirements performed before the application was approved and implemented? Or this a case of inheriting some old junk that you must support?

Sorry, I meant living room. :oops: No carnal activities occur at my residences.

It may need a better heat sink. Temps for the two cores are 58/63 °C at 76% CPU after about 20 minutes and 5-7 °C higher at 100%. Is that OK?

A Hibachi will not spin up completely. It makes a starting sound and then resets over and over again. @%#$!

800 lm is for living in a cave. There should be brighter LED replacements for E26/27 lamps in loving rooms for example. That is not to mention how one replaces the 4 x F32T8 ceiling fixtures.

Which messenger - one of the services?

Yes. I suppose something is running that keeps resetting the timeout.

The display does not shut off after the specified time (20 minutes). What can I do? Thanks.

MS should fix that HT bug. Yet they can't get the copy time to work after a million years, so I'm not holding breath.

Hah. Nothing new. :)

I have an E8600 very stable at 4.2GHz with a moderate heatsink. I'd expect the CPU to run at reasonable temps if only one core is used.

Is it correct that the SSD card takes up two slots, including the one to the left of the card?

The 1D MK IV is a wildlife body. I may sell the practically unused 5D II, since I have the pair of 1Ds MK III bodies. You are correct that the 5D II MK is better for videos due to the FF, unless one is working in very low light. On video one can get away with many less-than-stellar fast...

Holy crap. Too much time on the PCs and not enough in the garage, eh?

No, I did not. I was afraid it might ship it during my travels and USP/FedEx sometimes leave packages around despite any signature requirements.

:( My condolences.

Does anybody have the 1D MK IV on pre-order?

Maybe one of those weekly timers would work, for example charge all day on a Sunday. I wonder how power the UPS uses when doing nothing.

Those are interesting, especially the 256GB model. Is there any way you can determine how much the drive performance deteriorates after 150-200 TB of random writes?

You mean the data is not on the individual data drives? That sucks.

Wow, 100! :salut:

Why did "storageforum.newt" get redirected to the Bling? Has MS taken over all of the searches?

What do mean "all your imaging," the boot drive? That will be a small SSD for years to come.

I think I will be getting something for Christmas. :)

You don't need launches to get to the lunar surface.

Well you know what I mean - like the 3G and the 4G technology.

I have one of the old disposable, pay-as-you-go phones. It is fine for me, but the battery is dying so I will have to get something newer. iPhone would be way out of my price range and the batteries are not removable unless something has changed.

So my days of buying new drives for an old OS are numbered? Will the "old" technology drives still be around for a while, or should I buy a bunch of the current 2TB drives soon?

I'd try the Samsung and may get a couple for myself. ;)

Seriously though, will the Atavar be viewable on normal TV eventually? Based on the reviews, I would not like it very much, certainly not enough to visit a theater, whether 2D, 3D or 4D.

What is it, 1953 again? :roll:

Has anyone tried v 1.2 of the Intel tool on the X25-E yet?

Arrgh! I did not get home until 4:30 AM on Monday.

It's sci-fi, nothing real about it. ;) And paintings are often much better than photos.

X25-E is fine. X25-M is the problem.

Am I the only one that would not suffer a 3D movie, especially that one? Maybe I'll see it on cable or Blueray if I have an HDTV set by 2011.

Beisa oryx is close enough.

Not exactly, but I've been trapped in tents by lions, wildebeest and hippos. You never know what is out there and I don't like trying to move about in pure blackness. I want a general light so that I can find my TK11, etc. I have enough focused LED flashlights. I was thinking that the...

I did not know that. Maybe I should get the AA model instead.

I'm leaving the extra UPS plugged in. That is best for the battery, right?

I thought about that. The original battery in one UPS died last February and the replacement recently died as well. Unfortunately it had only a 12-month warranty. Then I substituted the second UPS, which was a few months younger, but it died after a few minutes. So I replaced both batteries...

BB doesn't even carry IPS monitors AFAIK. ;)

It's probably intended for institutional use and you would need a quote. I doubt they are in stock off the shelf for consumers to buy. ;)
