    Apple finally supports Windows

    This will "honestly" make me consider a Mac. I said "consider"... I did not say "buy"! ;) What I do want is to have Mac on my x86 PC hardware. I would "LOVE" to see Mac support SLI and gaming configs and driver support to step up. pipe dream... I know...

    Aluminus

    Looks like an aluminium Chieftec Dragon, which is not a bad thing! I like this little tidbit: "Reversible hard drive mounts allows for maximum case modification and cable management" Wish CoolerMaster would pick up on this! That is one of my primary gripes on their cases. I want the cabling to...

    Monster Rig.

    Just curious... looking at the WC rad arrangement, and please forgive my ignorance if I am speaking nutz. Would temp drop if your hoses were located at the bottom instead of at the top? It would seem that convection would push the hot fluid to the top of the rad, with the cooler fluid settling...

    Most Expensive Piece of Hardware You Own?

    Hehehe... suspend reality for a sec, and follow along on my trip down the yellw brick road... if you had multiple monitors on your machine, and let's say your game of choice had the ability to put a seperate point of view on that second monitor... can you imagine if you had a point of view (say...

    I have caved in..

    On a very real sense, IE has "Microsofted" www HTML coding standards. IE is not a compliant browser. And when you code a site to be viewed, and it works in everyone elses browser (because they are compliant to the standards) but then failes in IE because of the way it interprets the site...

    Is the only reason you mod to show off?

    I mod for the satisfaction of knowing that not only is my machine a screamer, but it looks mean and is one of a kind unique. Kinda like hot rods... some people like sleepers, but I'm a big time fan of the smart and clean hot rod with the OMG! graphics/flames. I originally started modding to...

    Most Expensive Piece of Hardware You Own?

    Amen to that... Was good for the several years I used it. Colors finally gave up the ghost, and the mask broke loos inside the tube, causing the image to curl on the bottom of the screen.... but while it worked, it was the best. When it died, I adopted a 21" Nokia monitor.. OMG!! That...

    Are LCD displays reliable?

    Running 3 LCD's @ home, 1 for me, 1 for wifey, one for son. No problems to speak of. For those that do professional photo work, you will not get *true* color reproduction... but you will get damn close. For everything else, the LCD wins, hands down. Space, power consumption, weight...

    Using laptop as main machine?

    here here Rob... My issue with lappers currently is their inability to upgrade toe video components. Now, Nvidia tried with the mini PCI-e card, and I saw a few vendors pick up on it... but it need to be widely adopted. *THAT*... is the only thing that sticks me from purchasing a lapper as my...

    Brandy sucks...

    Straight Brandy is something of a dessert. And, *yes*, it is an acquired taste. You may find that you have been exposed to some craptacular brandy.... in which case, wait a few years, loose the experience, then try it again. Brandy/Cognac types of liquors are something to be savored... not...

    The many uses of Dell

    Let us not forget the RamBUS debacle. It is *quite* possible that the Dell in question was running RIMM's, and as such, *that* would explain the price differential. I had a friend that was upgrading his girlfriend's Dell, and it was a bit older... and it used RIMM's instead of DIMM's... very...

    Man throws penis at cops

    Kinda reinds me of that joke, where Lorena Bobbit tossed the wang out the car window, and it hit the car behind them... *Whap!* Driver : "WHat the hell was that?" Passenger : "Dunno, but did you see the size of the prick on that mosquito that just hit the window??!?!?" :D
