    University Uses BitTorrent to Distribute Patches to 6,500 PCs

    I never used bit torrent, but when I was looking for Ubuntu, it had links to download the OS with bit torrent. I've never used that, so I just used a mirror. Bit torrent, what an odd name. And piracy, it's like buying milk for your children from a drug dealer. Guys from work have pirated...

    ASUS VW222 22-inch Wide-Screen

    I diidnt see a price range, so maybe it's just a starter monitor. Truly Asus is a name in the market that most people would consider their products over others. Could it be the trend is changing from quality monitors to anything that will produce light and colors? Merlin

    LOL On the other machine, I created a fold called ICONS, and drag and drop most ot the shortcuts to that, to clean up the desktop. SO when I want to use one, I open the ICON fold ( on desktop ) and use that to launch the program. Merlin

    Yorkfield Processors to Start Selling Next Week.

    The L2 cache is what I look at, the Wolfdale has 6mb cache and I see the new Core 2 Quad have 12mb. Also with hard drives, I look at the cache and speed. And the Q9550 at or around 500.00 is a lot better price than the big brother Quads. Merlin

    ATI TV Wonder HD 600 PCI & HD 650 Combo USB

    I have the older TV Wonder card that will not pick up the HD channels, so This ( 650 ) just might be a good investment. My only thought is my HD channels come in at 803 to 897 on Comcast. ( And you can get HD from the coaxial input? ) Merlin
