Maybe it is just nostalgia, but I think the SR-71 looks better too. The SR-71 looks like it can go fast, the F-22 just looks so hum-drum. I can't come up with any complimentary adjectives for the F-22 except that it looks technical or modern. Neither of those words carries a strong emotion...

Won't that be in April?

Significant change in Mandrake Linux Development Process

LOL

Perhaps the objective of the article is a bit skewed, but I believe Tom was just attempting to show how the top two SATA drives were fulfilling Command Queueing. Seagate is using the newly outlined specification from SATAII called Native Command Queueing, whereas Western Digital is using the...

I'm glad things worked out Time, and thanks for the tip.

I figure it is either hardware or driver related. As you mention, hardware could easily be the issue, as parts don't always make it safely through the gentle hands of a carrier. Nonetheless, expecting Windows to work properly after changing chipsets from a KT266a to nForce2 is a bit bold in my...

Yes.

I just finished talking with an acquaintance of mine, he moved back to Australia and is presently staying in Dawesville WA, just south of Mandurah. Seems like a really nice area, right on the coast, and a lot of development taking place. He's staying in the Dawesville Ridge Estates - nice...

Interesting feature in the fuel injection system: "A particular feature of the Mercedes-Benz CDI engines is what is known as pilot injection. Here, too, in the eight-cylinder units, this leads to an audible reduction in combustion noise. Just a few milliseconds before the actual fuel injection...

A review of the new Mercedes Benz E-Class Diesel (two turbos).

Re: Just an Observation: As posted by the Bartender earlier in this thread, listening to Johann Strauss is beautiful. I have been playing a mix of his songs over and over again for the past two weeks - fantabulous!

After being exposed to Tannin's writing for the past couple of years, it seems that with his prolific penchant for sock puppets, excellent imagination, and colorful expressions, I would suggest that he consider writing children’s books. Just read his recent short story about Tea and the...

Indeed young furry one, I wish for one of those monitors too.

Michael Jackson?

Volunteer away my fine feathered friend. Although, I'm sure they'd decline the offer and pay some else to go in their stead.

We need to keep cows around, I like eating beef. I just wish they were treated more decently prior to, and at the climax of their death. My top sirloin tonight was tasty.

:mrgrn:

From NASA: "01.22.04 - Engineers Working on Spirit Communication Problem The Mars Exploration Rover Spirit radioed a beep Thursday morning confirming that it had received a transmission from Earth. Still, it has not returned any data since early Wednesday. Flight-team engineers for NASA's Mars...

Hey, since there is such a good success rate, why don't we send a mission staffed with humans?

Very nice GS.

Is the Dandenong lockup near the Metlink station at the end of Hammond?

Any experience with Aopen boards and this capacitor issue? Any positive or negative experience with Aopen at all?

You're welcome.

A customer of mine has a 1 year old Dell desktop system that runs Windows XP Professional. He claims to have updated his Symantec software and now Windows requires a login password from him. He never used one before, login was automatic. However, now that this process has transpired, he...

Interesting 4 part article regarding the raising and slaughtering of beef in the United States. Is beef in Australia corn fed?

It would seem to me that the problem is not a fault of the capacitors, as they seem to be used in an out of spec situation.

What if your customer needed a 3D-rending workstation that primarily used such tools as Photoshop and 3D Studio Max?

Yes, I read that comparison, and there certainly are some differences between those two chips, some good, some bad. The comments at the end of the article are pretty good, especially in addressing how the current generation Xeon has ramped, and the limited life it has left.

Long weekend? Oh yeah, that Luther thing. Sorry, that doesn't affect anyone around here except government workers. Oh wait, it does affect me, there is less traffic on the road if I need to travel.

A host of friends. :D I will soon get my small measure of cold weather when I visit Seattle next month.

Ouch.

Just as a reminder. :D San Clemente, California

I hope things go well Dave. Did you hit the tooth on a bottle of beer? :D

In my opinion, that is horrific weather. Thank goodness for Maritime Temperate. :D

I don't know, read through my websites and find the grammatical errors? :D

Thanks Will.

That reminds me, I need a new pair of tennis shoes.

When I was into running years ago, I needed running shoes or cross-training shoes. The impact absorbtion was very important for me and my joints. This usually translates into something not trendy and not plastered with a bunch of plastic trim. Nike and Addidas have always been good for me...

That means you have to distribute the beer. DB would just drink all of it - that is a rather indirect distribution method. Try getting an importer and wholesale licence for beer and you never resell any of it. The IRS wouldn't be very keen on the idea.

Resist away! As Fool so kindly pointed to in another thread, Groklaw is worth reading regarding this SCO Debacle.

I wish I had taken and passed by IIS 2.0 exam a few years back.

I sat inside the 2004 Prius at the LA Auto Show - neat little car. The styling leaves quite a bit to be desired, but the combination of the technology and fuel efficiency makes it very attractive. Not to mention the reasonable cost and amount of comfort. Not its not like the inside of an...

I'm really enjoying the A&E Mystery series with Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot. Besides watching episodes through A&E, I've also purchased some of them on DVD. In my opinion, they do an excellent job portraying Poirot with David Suchet. He seems to have the right balance between being...

The reason I bring this up is because the good recommendation and results this power supply yielded with a recent Anandtech comparison. Overview Noise Wattage Test There are, of course, other tests that they reported on, but in comparison this particular Thermaltake PSU seemed pretty...

No, I used to go to the Swallows Inn. That was when San Juan Capistrano was a bit rough around the edges and the upper-middle-class hadn't moved in yet.
