    Opera question/s.

    I may be wrong here, but do you use tabs in Firefox, or do you use windows? Because Opera uses tabs by default, and making new windows is actually only good if you have tons of pages open at one time (like me). Opera will pop up the Transfers TAB automatically when you start a download, unless...

    Went from Intel Pentium II 450 MHz to AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.0 GHz

    Heh, nice going on the upgrade. I think my biggest jump was perhaps from my old AMD K6 500 MHz with its blazing 128 MB of RAM and ginormous 10 GB HDD, to my AthlonXP 1900+ with 512 MB and 80 GB HDD. Hmm... here, someone else tell me what they think my biggest performance leap is: Cyrix 133...

    "slowest" amd proc to spin 7800 gt

    Mmmm... Iiyama monitors are sexy for that kind of thing. Although a 22" (20" view) is um... over $600 USD... Well, if you're into CRTs (like I am), then happy. http://www.iiyama.us/default.asp?SID=&NAV=236&DOC=0&PAGE=0&PARAMS=DATASHEET&PARAMS2=0&PCAT=1&PTUBE=&PROD=2752&SPCAREA= Yes. Mmm...

    Pffft. That doesn't work. You have to use a table saw and then make sure that the screen is faced down. Then you guess ABOUT how far it is to cut off, and then run it through, and there you go! Borderless monitor! Doesn't work at all, but it's still borderless.

    Video Card for 2405fpw -or- 2005fpw

    Mmm... not sure if this is the right place to ask about this, but I have a Radeon 9500 Pro/9700 (It's actually the 9700 non-pro, but that's what it decides to display as), and I was wondering if the card will be able to run the 2405 at native res... and if not, will it run the 2005's native res...

    why 1280x1024?

    Well, the reason that you don't see much distortion right now is because they're the same NUMBER of pixels in each dimension. But when you LOOK at the circle in 12x10, sideways especially, then it's squished. Only way you'd get a reliable comparison is if you took a digital camera and took a...

    why 1280x1024?

    :eek: SOMEone's either had too much caffeine, or rides the subway all day. I'm going to go with the idea put forth that 1024 is the smallest logical four digit number. And people are still suckered in by higher numbers, as opposed to higher performance. :(

    Problem with Mountable_Boot_Volume...

    Password dealy should be the Administrator account password... unless I'm mistaken about what you're doing there. And if you can get that to work... there should be some utilities to help fix your problem.... But I've never worked with an error like this before, so I might be full of shit.

    Do you hide your PCs when you're away on vacation?

    Nooo! You have a legal right to kill them! (In some states.) So why not exercise that right? Although you can't legally set traps that kill people... :( :D

    Wired MX1000.....well.....close...

    I have to throw this out there (and have to hope that I don't get shouted down for it): Most people (or those who I've talked to at least) do not really know what a 'laser' mouse is. They think that it's either a high-powered version of an optical mouse, or a more focused red beam. They don't...

    Confused about SATA....please help

    Personally, I'd recommend the 8mb... since they're both 7200rpm, you probably won't see that much of a speed boost with the SATA... and the 8mb cache is better than the 2mb.

    Bingo! That's the stuff I'm looking for! Thank you very much.

    Keyboard choices

    Ehhh... sort of thinking of a keyboard that I can get... you know... nowish? Don't know if I'm going to get the Optimus at all anyway.

    Keyboard choices

    Right... I know that there are hundreds of keyboards, both corded and cordless. What I'm wondering is which of these is... stylish, functional, and long-lasting. I would prefer corded, mainly becuase they have faster responses, but if there is such a thing as a cordless keyboard that can...
