Over at The Inquirer, an article entitled: Microsoft's Gates dampens Longhorn OS fever, another amusing jab at Bill Gates is taken when it comments about the interview Bill had with NE Asia online, stating: Although I'm not against Windows, I thought the example quoted was too good to pass up...

Thank goodness that the USA is not a civilized nation (or at least refuses to adhere to the Geneva Convention)! I only use ergonomic keyboards, if I'm put in a situation to use the opposition, the keyboards feel cramped, congested, and inherently discomfited.

My distributor doesn't have the SM-348 yet, just the SM-332. But they do have the SW-248 (48x24x48 CD-RW).

I still prefer Tea's original avatar. Come to southern California CityK, it has been sunny and in the low 60s. :)

Thanks Clippy, I've read that before but get a laugh out of it everytime. Half of my family's English sounds like the last two sentences (the other half don't speak English). :D

Thank you for the switch in avatars Tea - I'm happy to see you're in a better mood and you're able to roam freely.

Indeed, guy solutions are not the same as girls.

I like it! :D

Every little bit helps Mercutio, and is much appreciated. I would count that Spinpoint as DOA. Anything within the first two weeks is DOA for me. Yes, technically it is not, but that is the way I make my call.

Copy and paste :mrgrn:

Yes, Clippy-G, the ECS USB hook up is very easy.

Congratulation to your cousin and her family StevenC.

I don't know, die Artillerie-Kommandeur von der Sprachwissenschaft Polizei and his buddy Herr OT have been quietly talking in the corner. Now I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but . . . drink Bartender.

True. My experience is that they carefully forget about your rebate until you call up and remind them. Then it suddenly arrives. But besides that, it has been okay.

Great deals, thanks Stereodude. Mfr. rebates <shutter> Why can't they give me the rebate up front like my distributor does? :)

It will be interesting to see what happens to that package.

Ah, but this thread has hope and decent character. :)

Indeed. I suppose if we all inhaled the right way we could create the same discomforting bulges.

Once again, I stand corrected. Thank you for the clarification Grammar Police.

That is what The Grammar Police was saying, he just found a word that few would understand instead of using normal American English like you Blakewry.

That is why I'm happy to buy Samsung. They come conveniently packed in a plastic holder with some shock absorption and a three-year warranty. :D Yes, I know Cougtek, they're not the best performers, but . . .

Great information guys, it is good to see some of you put more heart into this project then I have. I'm hoping to get a XP2000+ up soon to help out a bit. As far as the unproductive imposters we have on our list go, they should be removed. We can leave the torture up to the...

Although your logic assumes the best, and that all customers would purchase the most recent of all technologies, they don’t. When Slot-1s appeared, they were ruinously expensive (Intella keeps up that custom), hence the beauty of a K6-II. However, Pentium Pros were not in that overpriced arena...

Why would the system probably be made out of leftovers? Pentium 233 MMX Socket7s work great on boards like the Asus P5AB, Epox MVP3C2, or the FIC VA-503+. These same systems do a remarkable job of running WindowsXP.

My first PC, er. . . computer, uh . . . was Diana in all of her 1Mhz glory.

I was wondering how the INQ found your article too. Maybe Redhill should switch to reviews so they get more exposure? :)

And where are the AMD K6-2s and K6-IIIs in this poll?

LiamC's PC Oracle site was mentioned by Paul Hales at the Inquirer here. In Paul's "Daily Wibble", he states: "PC Oracle, LiamC fiddles about with some hard drives, assessing the relative merits of Western Digital's BB series (7200 rpm, 2MB buffer, 20GB per platter) Maxtor's D740X (7200 rpm...

Just a little while longer Tea, just a little while longer.

:( Alas, the outside world is so close, yet so difficult to enjoy. Doesn't Tsar Tannin close down for the Christmas/New Year period?

Sorry CRC, no Pentium 4s around this shop at the moment.

I don't like your new avatar Tea, it is depressing.

It must get really warm with all of that fur.

Do you really want to walk in a shop with some old guy passed out in his easy chair with some orangatun running loose throwing computer parts around and changing all of the keyboards to type the letter z instead of s? Visit Time and Sol instead. :D

Welcome aboard, Liverpool.

They should all be flogged and beaten!

Then there is the CSIRAC, Australia's first computer. Look at the picture of the Disk memory - holy cow.

What is with that one Spotlight Review?

Thanks Handy, I was spot on too.

AUD2,300.00 is that roughly USD1,300.00?

Well done Mercutio, I'm right behind you! :) Make mine a triple too Bartender.

Tannin would get even less work done.

Ah, yes, as you so noted earlier: "Buck, you do realize that we can't tell a damn thing from that picture.... "

I posted one.

That is a good price, my 19' LCDs sell for more.

Vengeance is such sweet bliss.
