    Overclocking - Are you one of the loonies...

    Alpha! I remember them :D I had a GlobalWin FKP32 - 7500rpm and SERIOUSLY ANNOYINGLY LOUD! You actually had to muffle the machine to watch anything, play games or hear other people in the room! Waiting on an Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme to replace the Zalman....I like the Zalman, but i dont...

    2009 Corvette

    MassSupra89 - go READ what i wrote please, typing it out again and again is tiresome. There are new cars for $75k that would embarrass the Corvette in terms of handling (definitely) and speed, but i've already gone through that and i'm not prepared to sit here and have to defend a PERSONAL...

    Also - in deference to your question, for $11k less than $75,000 - you can get a porsche. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2004-PORSCHE-911-TURBO-COBALT-BLUE-RARE-NAVIGATION-6SPD_W0QQitemZ150201035050QQihZ005QQcategoryZ10156QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Kthxbai.

    2009 Corvette

    If we all had the same opinion, life would be rather dull. I have been in american cars before, corvettes included. So i'm not just going by what i've read about, i'm going by personal experience too. Or are you as illiterate in your reading ability as you are in your spelling? Also, your...

    stupid dvd regions...

    Firmware flashes are pretty simple - not as scary as it used to be... I just wish they had the SB-03 in RPC1 for my Samsung SH-S183A :(

    stupid dvd regions...

    Okay - first thing you need to do it change the DVD drive to an RPC1 firmware. I suggest you look for one at http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_all.php Once you've flashed your drive with an RPC1 firmware, the drive is no longer locked to a specific region. Then you can play them in whatever software...

    Overclocking - Are you one of the loonies...

    I've never been state of the badass art, but i havent been too far behind - ie, my purchase of the 8800GT and the 4gb mem kit....but thats more for the 'i'll need that in a month or so' factor rather than just the bragging rights. I do *need* a quad core though, although i'll be getting a...

    2009 Corvette

    I'm not pro-Euro, nor am i anti-US. I dislike most current american cars because of their cheap build quality, shoddy workmanship, sloppy tolerances and ancient mechanicals. For muscle cars built in the 60's and 70's, ancient mechanicals are not a problem. For cars built in the TWENTY FIRST...

    In terms of technological development, yes, we're better at producing cars than you. Less money? I hardly think that $100,000 is 'less money' do you? You must be on crack if you think a Chevy is better than a BMW, especially in terms of fit and finish. You're the one on drugs here...

    How is it politics - its an opinion. One that i'm entitled to voice. The underpinnings are technically ancient compared to everything else on the road - you should be bitching at companies like GM and Ford to update that shit. They dont try and pull that crap here with the cars we get, why do...
