Last time I saw browser %'s, IE was still top, and IE6 still had some ridiculous number of users... this speaks more to who the "average" web user is than it does anything Microsoft is doing with Bing.

Your strategy and suggestions are brilliant! I bet Netflix never considered that. ...or the content houses are infighting and will never allow something as convenient and practical as Netflix have access to everything.

+1 I think someone should hold a gun to this guy's head and see if he wouldn't mind supporting the cause to prevent random homicides.

"Pulling a Netflix" would be informing your customers that the Blu Ray redbox machine will be split from the other video game and dvd machine and placed in different geographical location and then doubling the price of each. A .20 bump in one of their 3 products seems like... well, pulling a...

Either read the entire thread and respond to what I was actually talking about, or don't respond at all. Hint: I wasn't questioning that the mouse bindings wouldn't be editable in the retail version. :rolleyes:

If someone had the option of playing it on pc or console, I have no idea why they'd choose console. Also, agreed with whoever was talking about the default mouse controls. Sorry, but I don't use default mouse controls and it has little to do with "getting with the times." I want a toggle aim...

I got early access two days ago for preordering... I went to the beta forums to try to report a few things but was surprised by the tidal wave of morons posting there. Top complaints: 1) Why can't I change my mouse buttons 2) Your map is buggy 3) This game sucks, it only has one map If I...

Thanks for the replies guys.. the smallnetbuilder site for NAS was pretty much just what I was looking for. :)

Hi all, I have need for a 4-bay NAS enclosure to run a RAID 5 setup. I've scoured this site, tomshardware, newegg... I'm having a difficult time discerning what will suit my needs. I don't have very strict requirements, but most of the ones I'm finding on newegg seem to have common problems...

I have the same motherboard.... and Crucial SSD (120gb) and have a very similar issue. However, I also have a 1TB platter drive (western digital) and that one has also just "disappeared" once on me. I think it's the RAID controllers on the board, I don't think it's the drives at all. When...

Ok, I must have the 3.1 version then. I think I have the ADMedia 3.0 USB controller...

Any way to tell if I have the B3 revision vs the 1.1? I just bought and installed this motherboard last week (from Newegg.) I had some very weird issues with the SATA controllers and trying to get it to recognize my SSD and ATAPI drives. Ultimately worked fine, but sure was a hassle getting...

@Slufa - Are there any good overlocking guides for the asus z68 board? I read what you did, but what "options" are there? I haven't bothered overclocking in awhile, but I'm curious to try a few settings and check benchmarks to gauge the difference.

Well after another evening of playing, I'll response to this post with more info... hopefully to help others in the future. First of all, after googling Asus P8Z68-V Pro and going through setup myself... it is clear that these SATA controllers are quirky. If you start a project build with one...

Yep, I just bought one and installed last night. In fact I just posted a thread earlier asking about the two SATA controllers and which ones to use for what things. I don't even have the OS laid down yet so I can't speak to how it works long-term, but I really like the layout of the board, the...

Hi guys, It has been a few years (~5) since I built a new rig (I really extended the life of my old one) so I did some research on motherboards and ended up going with the z68 for my new one I put together last night, specifically: Asus P8Z68-V Pro (review done in May here...

@Gibbage - more power to you then, enjoy your WP7. :) Time will tell, but that 2% market share isn't all that promising at the moment.

I've used blackberries, iphones and androids... I currently do not own a Win7 phone, but 3 guys in my office do. Maybe Mango will be the answer to all of Microsoft's mobile problems... until then, gl hf with that.

That tweet is devoid of any pertinent context though... Google at first joined in *with* Apple, Microsoft, Oracle, etc to bid on patents. However, the price for the list of patents (most of which are dubious to begin with) got to be more than they were willing to pay. Google said "No, thanks."...

The ad is accurate, but I fail to see the point. You can't put the genie back in the bottle... as much as I want to add ads for Tampax and Depends diapers, I don't. Sure, zero ads would be nice, but that's just not realistic. The days of advertisers paying millions to spam ads out at hundreds...

Card looks pretty sweet, especially for the price. Will work nicely for my new rig I'm building. :)

I used AV software in the early 90's for a couple years... after I realized that suspect sites and downloads were the culprit behind viruses. I've been going on ~18+ years now with no AV, and I think it's downright silly to run on personal computers. I have my parents run it (for obvious...

Ok allow me to amend my statement.. it's like leaving your car with all of those things out in front of your house on a public street. If you leave a $20 bill on a public road, why do you expect for it to remain YOUR property? The problem is your expectations, not Google's actions. Also...

This is the biggest non-story I've seen in awhile.. are news organizations really this hungry for news? There are people dying due to genocide, starvation, disease.. we're killing civilians in Afghanistan. Google drives around with street view, attempts to map open wi-fi hotspots then realizes...

That was helpful. Just a thought, but I'm hoping future responses could include something devoted to the actual question I posed.

Hi all, I had an old HP Laserjet 2100 (10+ years old) that finally bit the dust. I was hoping I could resurrect it, because I didn't want to deal with the new toner cartridges and their chips that count pages, etc. Well I finally bit the bullet and consolidated into an "all-in-one" with...

Thanks Danny. Caniba - the article you linked is great also. I think I fall into the "high-end" hardware category, if we were to use bit-tech's nomenclature. :)

Thanks for the replies guys. Is there a SLI version of the GTX vid card that would be worth upgrading to? Same question about the RAM/mobo/proc. For another 100-200 bucks, is there anything that would way outperform what you suggested there Danny?

Hi all. If this is the wrong forum feel free to move it as necessary. I'm currently looking to replace a few parts of my system and would like a "package" recommendation from anyone who cares to drop their opinions. Items being replaced: Motherboard Processor Memory Video Card(s)...

Thanks for the responses... I sent IMs to you.

Thanks for the response, but not sure if you read my entire post. Anywhere to buy a mobo that *isn't* ebay? ebay is kind of my last resort. :)

I've been looking for an Asus k8n (or some variant) but they are really hard to find. I posted more details about what I have on this thread here: http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1393672 If someone has a socket 754 board they aren't using anymore and are willing to sell it to me (and...

Nice, might try it. :p

That's the one I referenced earlier.... that's what I use for my HTPC.

zomg run

Why wouldn't you just wipe the OS and start over?

Depends what you mean by good... I have one and I like it anyway. $130 sounds cheap enough to me.

Try a single card

lol...

Sirius is in trouble, but yeah... satellite radio is nice http://entertainment.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/02/15/0027251&from=rss
