    Q6600 vs i7 920

    If you do not already have an investment in intel boards, where can you find a good Q6600 setup? Is there a better choice than these two for someone not invested in intel yet but looking for quad core (3d rendering, video transcoding)

    HDMI input for iMac?

    I don't believe there is another transport that can handle the requirements of 1080p video: then the hard drives: Since these are theoretical maximums, the SATA-150 is probably unrealistic. So from my googling, which still could be completely wrong, you would need a PCI-X slot plus a...

    YMMV Seagate 750GB PATA for $56

    Do you have to go buy it to see the price? I had them check the SKU from the receipt scan, and it was 168. Does that mean the party is over? or is it worth making the trip?

    Vista hysteria among general public out of control

    It would be trivial to break the system then, they would have to share the technology with every random company on the net that makes a media application. If the media companies (aka the elephant in the room noone wants to blame) are going to insist on DRM, they aren't going to accept a...

    Heat Problems in Compaq Laptop

    Thanks for the reply, btw is there a way to change the ACPI setting for processor throttling, i'd like to be able to turn it on (right now it's disabled) to see if it's really the cpu, or whether it's the video card or something else that's overheating.

    P4 3.0HT to C2D 6400 OC

    Is there a link to the "pad mod", and in % terms, how much faster is the 4300 @ 266 than the stock 4300. I am going to try to pick up that fry's deal before it ends to upgrade a 754 setup (for mainly adobe apps)

    Large Screen Displays for programmers

    While i know the larger displays (particularly the westy37in) get great reviews, i'm not sure what the best option is for people who actually have to read text all day. I've seen some people use two widscreens rotated 90 degrees, but the larger monitors would still have more room, but lower...

    Password Malpractice: Are You Guilty?

    For some systems i have a secureid keychain (http://www.rsa.com/node.aspx?id=1156), i just use the number showing on that, plus my password, and it's about as secure as anything else, plus i can't give out the password because it changes every minute. If someone steals it, they can't use it...
