    I'm finally part of the club

    Kingston is retardedly expensive sometimes for no apparent reason. I'm using WinTec and am very pleased...and I doubt you'll beat 2x2GBs for $110 ;) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820161178

    Velocity Micro Problems - Reasonable Next Steps?

    I think the $2100 is bullshit, myself. You shouldn't be able to buy your way out of a contract like that. If the guy buys in home support, you fix it in his home. Period. End of story. So to Velocity_Micro...way to air your dirty laundry in public and try to make the guy look like a prick...

    Digital SLR preferences: Nikon vs Canon

    sony renames everything...so they call it super-steady shot...but it's really just CCD-based image stabilization. And digital IS is usually a hack, yes...some cameras offer a "double 1600" ISO, which is 1600 digitally upconverted to 3200...I wouldn't reccomend using such features as selling...

    A Picture I Took - 2008

    Sony alpha a100 standard 18-70 lense. Aside from making it b/w minor tweaks to the contrast/levels in PS CS3. Wanted it in HDR, but didn't have the tripod on me and it was really windy

    Digital SLR preferences: Nikon vs Canon

    built in IS works pretty well, as I have it on my sony alpha....which also has a switch to turn it off [not sure when you'd ever want to] The sony also has a CCD cleaning feature which shakes the mirror like it owes you money and in doing so removes any dust/debris [and uses about 1/4 of your...

    Guys...give up the "you didn't call until now?" crap. He bought a 3 year warranty. If within those 3 years, he gets busy...that's his perogative. I for one am in college, have a fiance, and work 45-50 hours a week 1 hour from my house and have a mother currently in the hospital. Shit...

    Recommended temperatures fox Xeon 5355

    the stock XeonHSF's for the active cooling units work pretty well...but I'd reccomend some AS5 instead of the non descript intel goo. Also, I have 4 Scythe 120mm silent fans over mine as well, and that seems to help a good bit

    Motherboards: the brand behind the brand

    use nLite or vLite [for XP & Vista respectivly] and you can embed text mode drivers [aka: SATA/RAID] into your installation disc ;) And yes..intel boards are rock solid and all but bullet proof. Asus is a close second, altho they tend to suffer from some shady BIOS issues that you won't...
