    Contacting Lian-Li

    I have this case for my server too, and yeah I agree about the slow humming. It has two hard drives (both identical actually), both in the same column. It's quite annoying, but I had figured it was incurable without moving the server, since my chieftec full dragon case did the exact same thing...

    do you set cleartype on?

    I used to have it on, when I was on windows. This was on 20" widescreen LCD with DVI connection (then VGA connection coz the graphics died). Now I'm on Ubuntu, with its font smoothing on. When I build my new Vista machine, I will put cleartype on again.:D

    Contacting Lian-Li

    What cases do you recommend instead of Lian-Li? I think you're the first person I've ever seen accusing Lian-Li of not being good.

    Whats the best Linux distro?

Either do it as root, or change the ownership of the folders (as root/sudo) or change the permissions on them to be less restrictive.

    mysql and php question

    I would show a limited number of posts per page, and get all the replies in one go (use limit and offset). Shouldshow a bit of speedup, although visitors will ahve to click to go to the next page, but all other forums do this anyway, so its expected.

    Notebook hard drive that isn't a 44 or 40pin connector, I'm stumped...

    My ancient 650MHz P3 Compaq laptop's hard drive is IDE, but instead of having just an adaptor, its encased in a sort of bay type effort. To get to the actual drive, the bay (plastic and metal assembly) must be unscrewed from the drive, and the pin adaptor thingy carefully pulled off of the pins...

    The dumbest thing you've ever done on a PC

    Just remembered something slightly stupid (although not in the same league as some of these stories). I plugged in the USB headers from the case to the mobo wrong and ended up frying a USB memory stick.

    Which physics engine can do a holodeck?

    Why bother? You only need one room, the holo-room. It can be a living room, bath room, study, garden, anything you wanted.
