    Ha...there's almost none of those around here (Culver's took over)

    I am SICK and TIRED of Facebook

    I'm in a similar situation as moon. I go to college a half hour away from home and most of my buddies there live a half hour away too. Plus, most of my friends/classmates from HS are all around the country (and I'm only a year and a half removed from HS). How do keep in contact. and organize...

    IntelBurnTest vs. SP 2004

    I didn't notice you were from Atlantic Canada...so I assume it's warmer than further away (or at least applies for WI during winter)

    IntelBurnTest vs. SP 2004

    I thought winter techincally started when it dips below zero (fahrenheit)?

    Is it worth the $100...

    Yeah, they brought that up in the Newegg reviews (they actually reactivated the product). That being said, I've had phenomenal luck with this HD; still no problems yet and still running circles around my old Seagate, still worth the $$$ I spent on it.

    Worst Band Names and Album Covers

    Rob - nah...I just thought Pink Floyd was un-original. It would like me saying the best album was Master of Puppets

    When did computer building start?

    Thanks guys. I saw that article after I posted, but it seemed fairly vague

    When did computer building start?

    I'm doing a demonstrative speech on building computers, and I was curious about when companies sold parts (mobos, cpus etc) to be built by the end user?

    Is it worth the $100...

    Wow...just wow. Haven't ran into any problems yet...but it really sped up the Vista startup/shutdown and overall UI. Just amazing...now I hope that rebate comes back :o

    Who's planning to upgrade to Nehalem?

    My Q6600 is far, FAR more than what I need now. Heck, even my E6400 was more than I needed! The only weakness in my system is the vid card (which is still good for the games I play), which I might touch when I have time this winter... Unless Nehalem can do Calculas... :D

    Intel's X58 Chipset to Cost Less than X48?

    I've noticed that while most computer components are going down over time...mobos seem to be getting more expensive...?

    Is it worth the $100...

    Thanks. I already ordered it, write speed isn't much of a concern since most of what I've done on that laptop is simply Word (or to be specific OpenOffice). $100 for a quicker, more efficient HD = worth it for now

    Is it worth the $100...

    Thanks guys. I really shouldn't have "dropped" (read the quotes...I didn't drop it) my VAIO, but in case it really drops :) The Newegg reviews do seem VERY critical about the Write speeds. Can anyone back this up...I won't have the time today to crosscheck anything...thanks guys you are the...

    Is it worth the $100...

    After "dropping" my laptop and having my Seagate RIP (along with my com 103 speech...gah!) a few hours ago...is this worth it? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227344 Or am I being reactionary? I barely used the 128GB provided on my old Momentus...
