I'll have to agree with Mercutio, Krispy Kreme stuff is not very good. It is greasy and loaded with sugar. Just give me a plain old-fashioned from the donut shop around the corner and I'll be fine (as far as donut consumption goes, I don't participate very much).

Most of my business for 2002 was for businesses . . . er . . . for companies. Anyhow, they were all satisfied with 52x CD Drives and would pick the option of a CD-RW for backup purposes only. Now, the few home users I had all picked CD-RWs, but still didn't see the need for DVD. They tended...

Nope, but I'm not trying as hard as you are.

What are they to do in Queensland?

Thanks for the tips and comments on the P4 boards.

Thank you for your suggestions. How about a good fee-based software for this type of work. Something that can also eliminate hisses and crackles from LPs. Anybody ever try Magix Audio Cleaning Lab 3.0?

Send the customer over here Coug! I'll set him up with a nice system at a good price. :D

I don't know if any of you have tried this yet, I've just downloaded a free copy myself. It was recommended by a friend as a simple way of managing content on a website. The idea is nice, especially for websites that have regular updates, such as news or current events. The main site is...

I'll visit SR on the odd occassion, but mostly I'm interested in the latest reviews for HDDs. For some reason, I don't read the review, I just click through the graphs, and in particular, look for Server Performance and Legacy Performance. The B&G has turned into a place I would rather not...

What type of machines do they build?

I need good, free, software for recording music that comes to my Line-In on the computer. Any ideas?

That is why I was asking. However, XP Home will work with a Domain, just use a Workgroup name with the same name as the Domain.

BBC NEWS World Edition Woes plague the small Australian wineries as they battle drought and the high cost of doing business. Because of these troubled times, small wineries are going out of business. However, local ships in the United States have taken advantage of this situation. Although...

Very strange. I visited the site again and it worked fine. It works even with a system that has never cached that page. Perhaps a refresh of your browser window or a reload would help? I don't know why it is doing that. If you would like to compare cars, the Maybach can be found here at...

Strange, it seems to work fine for me.

For those interested and willing to endure a website littered with Flash content, I present the new Rolls Royce Phantom - released January 6, 2003. Since Rolls Royce and Bentley have split up as of 2003, they've gone their own (owned by two different companies now, Volkswagen and BMW)...

Wood enclosures. I can see the case being easy to build, and the rigidity reasonably sufficient. However, what about standards listings related to fire issues or other standards related to frequency interruptions? If I had the appropriate wood-working tools, the project would be tempting.

Why is there a limitation on the amount of characters that can be used in a title for submitted news? Or is this just my imagination and two of the three most recently submitted articles have the titles cut off at the same place because of poor spelling?

BBC NEWS World Edition In line with the Australian wine theme, BBC News has a nice article stating: "Wine exports totalled A$2.3 billion dollars (£822.9m; $1.3bn) in 2002, an increase of A$531m on the previous year, the AWBC figures showed." Australia is the world's fourth largest wine...

So let me get this Dogman, you care nothing of the aesthetics or weight (you seem like a pretty strong bloke anyway), and they are identical in every other way save the metal used in construction. The only relevant point left in my opinion, is price.

He finally got off of his bum and slapped a few temporary systems togther for a little extra performance. How long it will last, nobody knows.

Much tidier then my shop, and more room. They seem to use a lot of Post-it notes, although I've found those small sticky notes to disappear rather easily around me. I also don’t have any open shelves, so things look much more neat at first glance (until you open the cabinet doors). My...

Woe is Blakerwry for asking the question.

Blake, what CPUs are you cooling with these?

Just to make things more confusing, this is what Intel lists as their present line of chipsets: Server/Workstation E7205 860 E7505 E7500 E7501 460GX E8870 Performance/Mainstream Desktop 850 850E 845 845E 845G 845GE 845GV 845PE Value Desktop 845 (redundant) 845GL 845GV (redundant) 815 815E...

If anything, this discussion has made me become more familiar with newer Intel chipsets, even though I don't sell them. :)

Close, the 845G requires B-1 stepping to support HT. The 845GL does not support HT, whereas the 845GE and 845GV provide full HT support. Unlike the other three G chipsets, the 845GL does not support 533Mhz FSB. The 845E does support 533Mhz FSB, but the 845 (no suffix) does not. The 845 does...

Indeed Slo, Australian wines are sold at the chain of stores that JSF mentioned at very reasonable prices, and apparently, the taste is good. I never realized that one of Australia's largest exports is wine. Which I hear is critical at the moment, because wine consumption and wine sales are...

Orangutanz have egoz?

Which is, of course, exactly what the author was pointing out. You need a new Intel chipset, the 845PE, in order to get that range of processor support.

AMD seems to be in a hurry to dump all CPUs previous to Thoroughbred - good for us. :)

cquinn, the article on our Home page. Blake, the variety of chipsets isn't the issue presented in the article, instead it is the requirement to upgrade to a new chipset in order to use a newer CPU. This is less of problem with Socket-A.

I've pointed my avatars to my site for the time being.

Thoroughbred XP1800+ CPUs are priced very good at the moment. Combine that with a Gigabyte GA-7DXE and 256MB of RAM and you have a good system at a good price.

According to the PFY and BOFH at The Register, that is what an Unreal Tournament Server is for. :D

Excellent information JSF, thank you for sharing. Living near you in Southern California, I can fully appreciate the variety of products and the reasonable prices offered by Trader Joes. I recently purchased six bottles of St. Peter's Old English Ale beer for a mere US1.99 per bottle when a...

Tell it that it would taste better with some barley. :D

Sorry CityK, I do not have any experience with Samsung's warranty replacement because I have yet to have one of their HDDs fail. Now, I only use the SP2001H, SP4002H, and the SP8004H, so my experience may be a bit narrow. Nonetheless, I've gone through a dozen of each this past year without...

Thanks for the link CityK

Sorry Coug, I avoid SIS chipsets. To many problems with them in the ATA-33 to ATA-66 transition days. I think my feelings of SIS are similar (althought not as intense) to Tannin's feelings for ECS.

Indeed. My first speculation with the board I have in question was that it uses an ALI chipset and their implementation of the sound controller might not be the best. I just might move them over to a Gigabyte GA-7DXE.

Not that I'm against ATI, but it just sparked my curiosity that I have a customer with a Radeon 7000 and has the same problem. All of my other customers get a GeForce something or other from me and never have audio issues. Do you think there is an ATI driver issue? -- This is just wild...

Understood Fushigi, I spent the past 4 hours working too (although I got paid).

Thoze happen to be the hourz that you attempt to zleep. Zo, I would imagine that the other momentz (albeit brief) of sanity are attemptz at taking a nap.

WD has two new files available for your combo: Windows Ultra TX2 Driver (was put up this month) and Ultra TX2 BIOS, version 2.0.0210.2 http://support.wdc.com/download/#promisedriver

Are both drives connected to the Promise controller card?

But why?

Are you running WindowsXP Home or Professional?

I don't think the ALI chipset is helping much on those large file transfers.

WD doesn't make 4-platter disk drives at the moment, so any WD1600xB drive will be made from 60 GB platters.
