This scenario certainly sounds familiar. Thanks to the OP for making me whole with the 7970 I bought from him this past Fall that also POSTed, but then artifacted and black screened within the hour.
It involved brokering shipping between me and the original owner (who was two steps removed from...
Found original box with installation disc, Crossfire cable, DVI cable, molex-to-6 pin power adapter, and DVI-to-VGA adapter for the PowerColor HD 6850. :cool:
Will pay first $25 of shipping from Canada on orders of $75+. Free shipping to US and Canada on orders of $100+. (UPS Standard)

This would be totally worth it if Jon's autograph is what showed up on the photo. Of course, that would increase tickets...
Still worth it.
You guys do understand that this has nothing to do with how you keep track of your personal passwords, right? It's about how the systems you sign into store everyone's encrypted passwords for authentication purposes.
So,
1. It's not a giant pain in the ass for a company to license RSA's...
I guess it's a good thing that's not what this system does, then.
Good luck ordering the half-chunk (with gaps) of randomly selected pieces (post-encryption) into something you can crack.
"Do you still like us?"
That's what the wife asked me yesterday, as I decided to put another hour into Bastion instead of teaching the kid to ride her bike.
And it made me think: Is this what my life has become? Relegated to playing indie games on my more and more obsolete AMD Phenom and HD...
Which is great, as long as the competitor can stay alive in the face of a free product as long as Google can keep offering it (which is forever, given their size). Google Maps was pretty spiffy and competitive when it first came out.
That's the problem, philosophically. Google arguably doesn't have to innovate as much (in their secondary business lines) as the other companies (in their primary lines) because they have a captive audience in an unrelated service. So the free application is theoretically bad for the customer...
Actually, that's not quite right... If the solar company was so dominant in one area that they could afford to give away a separate product or service that is the basis for a competitors business, then you might have a point.
Let's say, for the sake of argument, that 80% of the population had...
Still not getting it. If the solar panel company was dominant in an area that the power company relied upon for their business, then you might have a point.
By that logic, if a company owns a web portal, they should be able to include whatever web applications they wish on that portal.
You're not getting it. Google gets money from advertisers. They get more money if they push people toward those advertisers.
Obviously, search results can be...
If only there were an off-topic forum where we could make fun of you for not understanding when someone is referring to you as "hypocrisy" in perfect grammar.
It's not enough to be high-quality, is it? Corsair's stuff is drop dead gorgeous, too.
It would be a shame to have to hide one of those cases on the floor. I know--get a bigger desk.
Gigabyte HD 4850 (GV-R485MC-1GH) - $60
This is the 1GB version with the dual-slot, passive cooler. Original packaging and all parts as listed on Newegg above (minus the driver disk; plus a spare DVI cable).
Bought for HTPC work, I ended up using it almost exclusively for gaming: HL2, Portal...
