How small, how old, and how cheap? :D

The Enermax PSU I presently have in my workstation runs quite well. The voltages are consistent and within tolerance. The double-fan combination in the PSU allows for excellent ventilation of the case without much noise. I prefer absolute silence when I sleep (thus my present plan to...

http://www.vanshardware.com/images/TPG_SITE2.jpg The image was a bit big to post, but funny nonetheless. BR

Too much noise in comparison to his water cooled CPUs?

Interesting history. It is funny how you could be around in 1985 and not even have heard of Xenix. My computer world started with an Apple IIe in 1983 and moved to a Macintosh Plus in 1985/86. I was strictly a Mac user until 1994, when I bought my first PC, a Leading Edge 486/66. What a...

I've sold many and replaced a few WD drives.

Your idea is logical enough Professor, but obvious logic doesn't always take precedence. BR

Tannin, there were three generations of the IBM-WD collaboration, most of which bore the Expert badge and spun at 7,200 rpm. Family #1 - no Expert Badge, but the most obvious as an IBM drive AC514400 - 7,200 rpm - small test run for 7,200 rpm WD drives AC516800 - 5,400 rpm - small test run to...

I just updated to Mozilla 0.9.9 and switched the GUI to "modern" (which is the look I prefer, although Netscapes version in blue is more becoming) and things seem to be ok. I had a small glitch with 0.9.8 today. Whenever I would minimize the Mozilla window onto the task bar, it just pop right...

Presently, I've had to pick IE to be honest. But I just changed two of my systems over to Mozilla, and I will see how it holds up as my primary browser. BR

I'm impressed at how well Mozilla 0.9.8 runs under Windows2000 and WindowsXP. It runs quite a bit quicker then Netscape6 (although I like the GUI best), but not as fast as IE6. Which browser do you use Most? The poll doesn't specify release versions, but you can still let us know. BR

I suspect that Mozilla is showing the correct color that it understands to show. The FONT tag uses the color 000099 which Mozilla understands as being a dark-blue (I tried that same tag string on my website), however, there must be some other syntax nullifying this value, perhaps one of the CSS...

Keep the different color schemes for each category and use the same typestyle for each of those categories, except for the Golden Oldies. In the Golden Oldies section, create a look where the typestyle and color scheme match some type of nostalgic theme. Thanks for the compliment, but my site...

DRAM down - Mike Magee http://www.theinquirer.net/21030214.htm

You can with the CSS CLASS tag. Define a .roman and .modern Class, then you'll be able to use that in conjunction with other tags, such as <FONT> or . You seem to be doing very well with the whole CSS idea, if you need some samples, I'll be happy to send you a couple. BR

Congratulations Clocker, I’m happy that you got such a nice car and such a good price. By the way, we do not all drive Porsches; some of us drive old Turbo Diesel vehicles. Getting a timing chain was a good idea, but don’t be fooled, they do require adjustment. The chain, even a double-chain...

Tannin, you've been a busy man. I like the change in typestyle, it makes the site look much cleaner, and easier to read. The idea of removing the borders from your tables is not bad either, although I think it will work either way. Perhaps, using a border color that is only modestly different...

The site has been sporatically available so far today. BR

Wow, those prices and features are very attractive. Has anyone had experience with this company? BR

I'm not a LAN gamer, so I personally would not pay for this type of entertainment. However, the fundamentals to this idea have potential. My concerns would include the ability for this establishment to turn a profit; the cost of the equipment and the constant abuse from those using it; what...

Thanks for the offer Doug, but we prefer local sales at this time. BR

It sounds as if the impetus of the comments revolves around James K telling us what type of software he'll be running. With one of my combinations of Windows2000 and the assorted fun applications (webshots, ICQ, AIM, Real Player, Babylon (translation software)) running along with my usual...

Greetings James K, We appreciate your investment of time to our forum. Please make it your home, and I hope you enjoy everybody’s company and input. I look forward to reading your expertise and experiences. BR

Sorry Mercutio, I was referring to SR's legacy tests.

Mercutio, just for clarification, which WD400BB are you talking about, the one used in SR's original review in September 2000, or the WD400BB from their latest family (based off of the WD1200BB family)? BR

Pradeep and Cougtek, you shouldn't need that much cooling power. On Athlong XP 1600+ and MP 1600+ systems, I use some fan/heatsink combinations that are quiet and cool enough. No, they're not unbelievably cool, but they survive 96 hours of RC5 without a problem. Usually, the don't get past...

Multiple logins, me? We are not a collective, we are all distinct individuals.

Handruin, Is the login time started when you login? I've dealt with some software that doesn't count time until your login becomes idle. I suppose, this is not an option, otherwise you would have mentioned it. BR

7F? Great gobbs of goose eggs, that is cold. You sure it wasn't 70F? Either way, your point of airflow is well taken. And yes, I have felt toasty hot SCSI drives. Pack 5 WD4360 tape-seal drives into a mid-tower running off of two WD SCSI cards. The intermal case temp was so hot, an...

You're not alone Mercutio, you are just more vocal. BR

I'm logged in to StorageForum, creating a new topic in the Feedback section. While I'm creating this Topic, and adding options for the Poll, I'm asked to log in again! Why was I logged out in the first place, I was doing work? So, now that I was unpleasantly logged out, the Topic I was...

Tell him, tell him! He'll need to buy more components from Redhill. BR

Thanks Coug.

Yes, I have not approved of Tom's actions either, and have subsequently removed his website from my "Helpful Links" section. As has been noted, his new partner, the register, has not commented on this issue. BR

I wish I knew how to help, but I don't. James would be much better qualified to help solve this problem (probably everyone else is better qualified then me). BR

I'd like to vote again and point out that the speed seems to be inconsistent. Earlier, the pages loaded unbelievably slow, then the site was not available. Now the site is back, and the pages seem decent for a Broadband connection. But, considering the micro amount of users visiting, I would...

Thanks JoJo, I do, however, list the StorageForum under my company website: http://www.hlmcompany.com But don't worry, nobody visits my sites anway. BR

Yeah, it's done. If you so desire: http://www.mittelsmann.net BR PS: If you are wondering, mittelsmann is german for mediator, and since most of my older-generation relatives are not very computer or internet savvy, I've placed some of their favorite websites on mine, so in a sense, my site...

I have successfully hosted several websites off of my own server until my recent woes with my ISP. Since then, and through the reference of others, I've picked pair.com to host me sites. However, my personal site would never work properly - images wouldn't download, or certain pages wouldn't...

Thanks for the heads-up Adcadet, but I'm using Corsair memory (I rarely buy Crucial) and I've already swapped the memory which resulted in no change. BR

I feel like I can't afford it. Sol, move to the USA. :D

Paradise was Western Digital.

I could use a customer like Sol, *sigh* BR

You can add to that, Paradise.

Look who's talking. Tannin, that picture is nice, but it should be more clear. BR

That is over-the-hill? O boy, we're in trouble.

When you have a full length card with 4 or 8 EIDE cables hanging from it the opposing end of the card will sag almost a quarter of an inch. I don't care much to have that kind of flexing take place on my card. If it were a desktop application, it wouldn't really matter, it's just that in a...

The ATI Radeon VE 7000 32MB I can buy and sell at a good price. Also, the ATI Radeon 7500 64MB is reasonably priced. I normally try to sell video cards under $100.00 if not well under $100.00 for most users. Those that need more, know what they want, and I'm happy to get the better 3D cards...

If I'm seeing this case correctly, there is no slot to hold the opposing end of a full-length adapter card. I know it sounds odd, but my 3ware card is full length. BR
