    Coolermaster V8 - Initial Impressions

    Mediocre at best... I'm looking for a replacement, though. Its large, but can't keep up with my i7-920 @ 3.8 ghz and beyond. I tried lapping it to see if it would improve, but I really didn't keep track of the results. I tried mounting 80mm delta on front to see it it'll improve (I have a 120...

    New colorimeters from X-Rite.

    Unless it doesn't function or give you accurate profiles. Mine still works along with the Monaco Optix software under SL and Win7 x64. I'm SOL under Lion since Rosetta is needed. FYI - to get it to work under Win7 use the Vista drivers. I was looking in getting an i1 Pro as an all in one...

    Ubuntu can open OSX formatted disks. I don't know if it respects the security/permissions. It just may be enough for you to grab your files.

    Got burned also. Spammer profiles and random chat invites, that they eventually you get led/tricked into subbing to the girls 'cam site (if you're dumb enough or into that stuff). Of course, you have to pay to write/talk back. I go denied on eHarmony. Claimed I wasn't a good fit for ther...

    Camera Bag Recommendations

    I have this Canon bag and its a bargain at $45.00! I needed something quick and economical and picked this up until I found something better. I ended using it for 5+ plus years and not looking for another one. I pack a 24-70 w/body with another lens, two flashes and remote. Tripod and other long...

    How Netflix Killed Blockbuster

    A former owner of 3 Video Stores said this a while back as he was closing his last shop; "Video rentals were great in the VHS days. Owning that tapes/movies was cost prohibitive since the studios charged $100+ for them." Video rental stores thrived because the avg consumer couldn't afford them...

    Steve Jobs: iTunes 10 Icon Does Not ‘Suck’

    I don't use/like iTunes under OSX. The only time I use it is to find out whats new and hot in the music world and then talk to my friend TPB. I use SongBird under OSX to play my music back. I banned iTunes (even QT, dont even remember the last time I used it) from my Windows side and use...

    First macro lens for Canon?

    10-22 lens = the focal length of 16-35 on a full frame. The only reason I want the 10-22 is because I shoot with a 24-70L and the the wide end isn't as wide as I got with the full frame camera. Yes, I compared - I have a FF film body. I finally made the switch to digital less than 6 months...

    First macro lens for Canon?

    Rent it first. ie www.lensrentals.com - I've been eying the 100mm f2.8, but its a distant fourth/fifth on my want list. I'm eying up other lenses ie; 10-22 EF-S, 70-200 f2.8 or even a set of strobes/off camera flash outfit. I don't know what your budget is, but try before you buy - before making...

    Coolmaster V8 or Megahalem

    I have the V8. Not too thrilled about it, but it works - I may be at its limits though. I have it on my i7-920 at 4.2 ghz and it does fine, but not too comfortable (high 80's on full load). Things I don't like are the single fan that takes some work to swap out and the screws that hold the...
