I like how he claims that he's not telling people to buy more GPU's yet there was SLI then quad SLI then tri-SLI and now quad SLI V.2. Try and sell me that fib when you can build a single GPU that will render the most demanding games at 2560x1600, full details and full AF/AA and not use 120W...

You know it.

Close, Casio Mariner. I've been through dozens of bands and around ten batteries.

No, the higher that you turn the gain on the speakers, the more noise that you can inject into the system via RF. If you're not hearing any distortion now then it's best to just leave it be. Although I'd turn the speakers up to as loud as you can stand them and use windows slider after that...

Back in the day when I was a lad (literally, 10 or so) I seem to remember the badasses of the neighborhood taking steel toed boots, cutting all but about 1/4" of the leather covering the toe cap off and polishing the toe caps. This did indeed look pretty impressive but it also gave you fair...

8 years and 35 pounds ago... You can't see it in TUMPer's pic but I still have that watch... 15 years old and still going strong.

One comes with a game, the other does not.

Damn those steel toed boots.

Actually the ZR are rated for 146+ MPH and there's another rating for "above 192 MPH" (iirc) but the letter eludes me. You'd be surprised the amount of info in car owner's manuals.

I would imagine that this would depend upon how the gain circuit is wired in relation to the volume control. If it's after the volume control (fixed gain preamp) then it won't detract from the sound quality if you do it the way I outlined. If the volume control is in or after the preamp then...

It amazes me too, it just goes to that show that humanity in general aren't complete douches after all.

I see you....

The rule of thumb is (without clip indicators) to turn the source volume to 100%, then turn the amp gain (volume knob per PC speakers) up to the point where clipping begins to occur (audible distortion) and back it down a couple of degrees (or two or three db on speakers with db scales) and...

I'd heard on Regis & Kelly that Microsux had reached $33 a share before backing out... Not that I rely on Regis & Kelly for my tech news mind you.

There's a little place in Acworth (I believe the name is Daddy's) that uses the honor system (it's akin to the honour system but Americanized ;)) for their stuff. You go in, grab what you want and toss your money on the table. If you need change you get it off the table. From what I hear he's...

Meh, I use about $10 a week for work and $5 for incidental driving. Gotta love having a 10mi round trip commute.

You're in Acworth? I work there at Seiz Printing. It shows $3.49 as the cheapest here in Kennesaw but it's further than I like to go. It's over near Barrett PKWY. and I'm on Wade Green. For $3.55 I can most likely break even on the loss in driving 6 miles round trip to save 7 cents a gallon.

It does install inside windows. It boots into windows if I leave it alone at boot but if I choose KDE it says it can't find it, if I then choose windows it says (unsurprisingly) that it can't find it but if I reboot the PC it'll boot into windows. Don't ask me why, I have no clue about Linux.

It installs a boot loader. If you choose KDE (kubuntu) in the boot loader and try to boot into it, it will say it wasn't found. Try to boot into windows after it fails at KDE and it'll say it wasn't found. Is that a bit clearer?

I tried installing 8.04 using WUBI and while it installed fine, it won't recognize the OS.
