    Best Browser

    I disagree about it being as buggy as people think. IE, of course, has security bugs, but it is no more buggy then any other browser. The reason more bugs show up for IE then for a browser like Firefox is because there are extremly more people using IE then other browsers. The more people...

    Gigabyte I-RAM Storage Device

    PCI slots are not used very often nowadays in computers. I know I got like 5 free PCI slots in my computer. Chaining together a number of these I-RAM units could give you a 20 gigabyte instant-access drive. There are many server applications where storing files on that instant-access drive...

    How much faster are current day games / apps with a dual core?

    Are not some games slowed down within the programming to avoid stuff moving across the screen too fast? A dual core will not make a difference in a game that is already being slowed down on current processors.

    Are LCD displays reliable?

    Samsung got a lot of good reviews on their higher priced models for reproduction of black colors on the screen. They want $500 for their best models but might be worth it for the better quality color reproduction.

    If Microsoft was Open Source, would it have LESS bugs?

    This is not necessarily true. Microsoft is an expensive operating system. Linux will continue to gradually take over because it is free. Companies that have a lot of employees could be looking at millions of dollars just for the cost of equiping each computer with a Microsoft operating...

    How much is too much for a video card?

    How much is too much depends a lot on how long you can get out of the video card before needing to upgrade. If I only can get 2 years out of the card before needing to upgrade again in order to play the latest games, then I would not want to spend more then $300. If I could get 4 years out of...

    A Typical Government Computer Manager

    I almost fell out of my chair from laughing so hard when I read that article. It boogles the mind how incompetent some government workers can be, and its pretty sad that they are an example of the type of people working for the government.

    Using laptop as main machine?

    My parents only own a notebook. They will use it on the dining room table, while sitting on the sofa, and in their bedroom. Nice thing about a notebook is that you can take it with you, no matter where you go. Not a bad way to use a computer.

    The quality should of went down and not up? The Creative Sound Blaster Live is really outdated and almost any onboard audio should perform better then it. Are you sure that you configured the onboard audio correctly on your motherboard when you tested it?

    ATI Product Stack

    I will never switch to ATI until ATI adds a similiar feature like digital vibrance to their cards. I read an article a couple years ago stating that ATI was working on it, but they never added it.

    How to protect yourself against hackers?

    Make sure you download every security update for any applications or scripts you use on your web site. For example, a hacker can exploit security holes in a forum. If you have a forum installed and do not download the latest security updates, then you are asking to have trouble. Same applies...

    I agree with this. At my work, they got Dells, and I barely hear the fans in them.
