    Computer Stuff - Advice?

    I am in the middle of building my new computer and I am having trouble deciding on a few components. Right now, Intel and ATI seem like the top dogs so I am going that route. If anyone has advice for me, I would like it but you must consider these points: Must be LGA775 [have mobo already]...

    And here I thought some of the stuff for our cars was expensive

    For those prices on the new GT-R, I'd rather legalize and import a GT-R32. I heard Motorex had an issue, but I'm sure someone could do it.

    OMG they are doing that? Why can't Hollywood leave anything good alone? Destined for ruin..

    My wife bought the movie quite awhile ago and we started watching it. She said there was something about it - she couldn't put her finger on it - but there was something she didn't like. The movie annoyed us both, just in different ways. I know people rave about how amazing it was that the...

    Greddy declared bankruptcy today

    It probably doesn't help that there was a huge decline in performance cars coming out of Japan. Let's look at what they don't have in the US anymore: Supra MR-2 [SW20] Celica [Alltrac/GT-Four] 3000GT/GTO Turbocharged Eclipse Turbocharged Skyline Turbocharged Z 240SX What do we have? The EVO and...

    Airman Garganta

    Airmen don't get stationed there unless it's for certain schools or you are attached to a weird field unit. What is so bad about Pensacola, other than Hurricane Evacuation? I was at Hurlburt Field, in Fort Walton Beach [about 45min east of Pensacola] for many years. I grew tired of it, but...

    Firefox just got competition... Google Chrome....

    Safari is good - for the iPhone! I don't think there is an alternative yet though. LoL

    Airman Garganta

    Don't worry about that so much; the Air Force won't! They care that your aptitude is high enough for whatever slot they have picked out for you! All of my scores were in the 90 range except for mechanical, which was in the low 60's, and they still wanted to put me in "open mechanical". I didn't...

    Redneck bee removal!

    Should have been able to do it 20 feet away with Wasp&Hornet killer. I swept a can of that side to side in a 1ft wide section of a bush in Florida where I saw a Hornet fly in. After a good two second sweeping spray one fell out.. and then several more fell out. I swear by the stuff; it works...

    What are you reading?

    I finished "Snuff" by Chuck Palahniuk awhile back. I have some more books I bought a little while ago which I have not started yet. I will probably either start "Rant" by Palahniuk or start Moby Dick next though.

    Firefox just got competition... Google Chrome....

    FF3 works great for me. Google is a revenue machine, so watch out for data-mining. Remember the last "helpful" product they put out? If it works great, awesome for you guys. I'll hold back and wait a little bit.

    new diet ....

    That is excellent! Keep up the good work! I started a diet last week, and I did well at work and home all last week, but failed this weekend. I am back on the horse now. We'll see how this works out. I don't know if I can be as successful as I was two year ago when I was in Afghanistan, but...

    Cat lovers--> Pics of My new kitten

    You feeding it some of that home-made "kitty glop" kitten formula? He needs to eat - that cat is about the size of a cheeto.

    good luck (gustav peoples...)

    Looks like once again GWB powered up his weather machine to keep all of the minorities in 'Nawlins down. I hope this made someone laugh. Good luck to all who leave, and all who stay. Hurricanes suck, and I hope everyone makes out as well as they can on this.

    Comcast sets 250GB ceiling

    Speed on the net has always had disclaimers. Don't blame the cable companies, because speed has always varied, even from the days before "fast dial-up". The first computer I built had a 14.4 kbps modem; the first modem I ever used was 2,400 baud. I didn't buy a 56k modem with the idea that I...

    Comcast sets 250GB ceiling

    What sucks is, you may get really good throughput on large files [more than 1mb], and even many files at a time and people don't see much of a slowdown when they are downloading files, so they do it. When you have 5% of customers doing this - downloading and uploading [in other words...

    for the gun folk....especially military.....quiz time

    I was a "Security Forces augmentee" while I was stationed in Kunsan, Korea. During our 1-2 week long chem exercises [happened every other month], I was actually part of a fire team. That was much more exciting than sitting in a maintenance shelter, working on targeting pods in MOPP-4. The M-60...
