Newegg now lists the 4200 / 4400 / 4600 x2s, all marked "in stock". I've not emailed to actually confirm that they're in-stock, however.

Very true. I like Python as a starter language because it's very forgiving (as opposed to anal-retentive languages like C, Java, or Ada). Stuff like VB and Perl also fall into the category, and they'll let you focus more on the procedural, rather than syntactic, elements of programming. While...

I'd think Python is fine for a starting point as languages go. As for an initial project, you'll need to spend most of your initial time learning programming basics. Do not go for a full-fledged download.com-style program as a first attempt. Let's take the timer example as a starting...

In case you're not doing it now, also check out mysql_escape_string and associated functions to prevent sql injection attacks.

Hunters are far better at soloing than warriors. Sure, a warrior will take a tougher beating than a hunter... but why is your hunter getting beat on at all? That's what his pet is for.

Actually, it can and it does. It gets paged out to the hard drive. We've had thread after thread after thread on this (and most of them get locked), but the evidenced consensus has always been that widespread service tweaking nets no meaningful performance gains past startup. Here's one of...

All the people who have had issues diagnosed by Ranma_Sao going through their crash logs might beg to differ.

PHP example above is happy now. amoeba's is certainly the cleaner solution if it's practical, but the PHP / etc is nice to know when you don't have shell access to a web server. Coming back to that, since it doesn't look like the OP's got a real answer yet -- what is your server setup...

Good point. Should have stuck to my list pseudocode of store; delete; create to be safe. As for . and .., they should be covered by the lack of a valid file handler coming back from readdir()

how so? It's a virtual copy-paste from the PHP manual. Saying "that's wrong" without a correction really doesn't benefit anybody. //edit: that said, it is constructed off the top of my head and should be first tested in a safe environment, etc, yadda, yadda, yadda.

Any decent scripting language (and maybe even DOS) could pull this off. You want to: --Read the directory listing, storing the file names --Delete the directory contents --"touch" the stored file names to recreate them as blank files PHP, for example, would use something like <?php...

Any further context, like where this folder is located?

...however, the OP has a software conflict issue with SP2, not an SP2 configuration error.

Add/Remove Programs, SP2 has an entry. SP1 added USB 2.0, so it's doable. However, I've never heard of somebody rolling back SP2, so YMMV.

You could also :link { color: black; } .navigation :link { color: yellow; } ...and so forth. AFAIK, useless for :link, but has potential for :hover and other tag-generic pseudoclasses. It probably applies to SVG if you are (for whatever reason) sharing a CSS file with that format.
