    Why Wide Screen and Best 20.1" for Gaming

    Sorry to start a new thread, but I've been doing so much reading and research that my head is spinning some. It looks like Wide Screen is the fad these days, but I don't know why I would want it. I do not watch movies on my PC. Setting up two windows on a wide screen looks like too much work...

    Celeron 2.4 or P4 1.8

    Good for you. I ran Super Pi Mod1.4 on each. The 2.4 Cel did it in 2m 11.5sec and the 1.8 P4 did it in 1m 31.7sec. My main box with a p4 2.8c did it in 50.266sec. Who's a SuperPi know it all. Is the roughly 40 second difference significant. I might run something else as well.

    Celeron 2.4 or P4 1.8

    I've got a choice between two Dell boxes to be my new server box (2k3 standard). One has a celeron 2.4 and the other has a pentium4 1.8. I'm pretty sure the 2.4 is on a 533 fsb and the 1.8 is on a 400 fsb. Either comes with 512 ram at 266. Which of these would you go with? Is the 1.8 faster...

    Dell Dimension XPS 400 Evaluation @ [H]

    Did anyone really expect anything different. I seldom tell people to get a Dell and for many of the same reasons mentioned. If your not going to get the CD's, might as well get a HP. I've had pretty good luck with the HP stuff. Too bad Dell just doesn't allow you to pick the bloatware as...

    XBox 360 vs Your PC

    Yes, it eats your 9800's lunch. Yes, it eats most of our PC's lunch as well. Well, except for you who are eating noodles why playing on the most current crap out there. By the time the software/games come out to take advantage of the full potential of this gaming console, PC's will have...

    2000 to 2003 question

    I have a server 2000 with exchange (5.5? i think). Something has happened and the OS won't boot. Been messing with different things to fix it. That's not the point though. They have a tape back up of the server. They do not have their 2000 cd. May end up doing a reload and restore from the...

    Use File and Settings Transfer Wizard to do a BACKUP?

    I am going to do an upgrade from XP Home to Pro. I want to back up my data, etc before doing this and was thinking that I might just use the File and Settings Transfer Wizard to do this. That way, I get all the data plus my settings and then if for some reason I end up just doing a clean...
