I watched it fly from Cocoa Beach. It rumbled the beach nicely.

I wonder what this means for Global Foundries - Hector is the current chairman, no?

This would fit my gaming budget nicely. I'm in!!!!

Does anybody think that if Microsoft actively quit developing a browser such as IE, if the cost of the OS would go down?

BWAH! Lucasfarts: BRING. BACK. TIE FIGHTER. Please? Off-topic I know, but the news article ealier in the week about TIE / Xwing possibly being on Steam in the near future has got me stoked.

I would plunk down the cash the re-buy them off of Steam in a heartbeat, despite the fact I already own them from way back in the days, if for no other reason than to tell Lucasfarts that there is a market out there that wants to give up the cash for a decent repeat of the experience provided by...

Check and make sure the squidguard service hasn't crapped out on you, and the home screen isn't always an accurate indicator of whether it has or not, in my experience. Are you using squid in transparent mode or proxy mode? If you were using it in transparent mode, I would try to enter the...

What blacklist are you using? Something like Shallalist or BigBlacklist?

Sweet. I'll check that one out.

I just bought a cooler master case w/350w ps off of newegg, and want to build a system with the following specs, and want to throw in a video card, but I'm not sure about my power requirements: MSI P6N-SLI Core2Duo e4xxx 2 gigs ram IDE HD, IDE CD I have no interest in running SLI. I was...

I've owned both chips in systems. I was always somewhat depressed by the performance of the Pentium D 2.8. I assume that most of the apps/games I was running at the time were not mult-threaded..... but at any rate, in comparing the two the PD always seemed kinda ..... slouchy. You could...

2524 seems like an odd choice, as it has a moving part in it (fan). The 2510-24 seems like it would've been a better choice, as it is basically the same, but with no fan, and updated/die-shrunk components. I guess they want to go with something that's tried and true.

It's about friggin time. I've played the Madden games since Madden '93 on the Sega. They've always been great fun. Then came NFL 2K5 by 2K games.... This was the most FUN football game I have ever played. It was so well-done, so addicting, that I ended up playing multiple seasons in a...

Any 2 7200rpm SATA drives in a RAID 0 would do the trick for you with room to spare.

Man, I feel your pain. I farted around with this for at least a week solid a couple of years ago, and I spent tons of time reading all kinds of documentation from MS on the correct way to configure certificates for authenticating wired and wireless users. And I got it working. Sort of...

If you have a cabling problem, it will manifest itself in late collisions and framing errors. Since you're already in the business of moving FTPs around, which I think is a fair test, you can check the interface statistics of the interface that all the traffic is coming in on / going out of...

I'm thinking that this will meet your security needs: http://www.zftpserver.com/features.php and it's free.

Hey folks, I just built a new computer for a friend of mine with the following specs: Q6600 4gigs RAM 8800GTS 512 (G92) Vista x64 500gb SATA 19" LCD max res. 1440x900 He tells me that the performance in AoC is less than stellar. Is this typical? Is AoC that heavy a game? He said...

Yes. However, as I said, it only supports a one broadcast BSSID/SSID And yes it's also true that technically it can support up to 128 associated clients, but would you really want to divide up your 54mbps shared medium 128 ways? In my experience, 25 clients is the max you want associated with...

Never had one, but my friend got the cool-looking purple PCB dragon Soyo board back in the day, I thought it was slick as snot. Ran real nice and smooth for him.

Hmmmm..... Procurve makes a very 'robust' (never thought I'd actually use that word) controller-based AP solution as well, that is cheaper than the Cisco solution, has a lifetime warrantly, and supports all of the features that he will likely use. I would recommend taking a look at this as well...

DX10, maybe as well?

That's gotta be it.

Sounds like you might need to flush you local DNS cache.... ipconfig /flushdns

Excellent point. This could be it's own thread. My Vista box hasn't been rebooted since.... we'll I'm not sure when, and it runs just as well as it did when I first cut it on. In fact, it runs much smoother overall.

I personally think that the newer EVGA boards 750/780/790 look pretty stylish. Also, most DFI boards look pretty good as well. .... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813136043 ... if you like orange, all. Both brands make solid boards.

I'm not sure where you can get a *legal* disc for this.......... but, If you just want to clean up your PC though, you might want to try a free app called PC Decrapifier. It's only purpose is to scan a new computer for any shovelware/trialware apps preloaded, and it removes them. You'd still...

Sorry guy. I just get asked that question more than ANY other one when it comes to computers, and it just seems not particularly applicable these days. But.... Avast is good, AVG is good, ClamAV = BAD I've experienced a pretty rough performance hit after running ClamAV.

Does anyone besides me NOT use any sort of virus protection? For my personal machine at home, I just don't see the point anymore. Viruses, as it were seem hardly a threat anymore, unless you download a lot of crap off of Limewire / Ares or have unfiltered email. For a home machine, common...

Sucks to hear that.... I manage networks for several school districts, and they run Zenworks as well.... I haven't even had a shot at trying Zen on Vista because nobody will buy a dern Vista machine! I figured there'd be issues.

I agree with you. It's all about change for most folks.... and Microsoft has been sitting on XP for WAY too long. Now everybody has gotten so used to it, that most people are cranky about the change. My question is this: What was MS doing from 2001-2006? Not developing Vista that whole time...

I was just wondering what everybody's take is on it, if you have a chance to read. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/05/14/AR2008051403552.html?sid=ST2008051501061 I for one agree with him on just about every point mentioned. I work in IT and I've been disturbed and...

Wow. I must be spoiled. If my room gets to 78 I get uncomfortable and start sweating, and go running for the AC. I hope it's dry out where you're at, cuz here in GA it's so stinking muggy you can hardly stand anything about 80.

What model Watchguard do you have? Are you doing static routes on it, or are you running a routing protocol?

Go for it. I've been using OpenDNS now for about 3 months to do DNS lookups for 3 school districts. The filtering does a great job, and the performance is good as well. There is no downside that I can think of.

Here's the cleanup I did on my Antec 900: I had to cut a couple of holes in the case with a dremel to route cables behind the mobo.

You might try changing out your ethernet cable. I walked into a situation a while back where a user was complaining about slow internet. I did some tests, and confirmed that they were getting around 10kb/sec instead of the 700kb/sec they should be getting. File copy over network was equally...

LOL GEEZ that's gotta be fast though. I wish I had a DL380 for my test environment. :p I've never tried loading it up on a SATA before. Seems like not the greatest idea.... but like OP says, you do would you can afford. I've got ESX running on Dell PE2850 w/ dual - dual-core Xeons and a...

Take a look at Zoho.... it's completely web-based and free. http://www.zoho.com

The Procurve 530 AP and an external Yagi would be a good option as well, should be a good bit cheaper than the Cisco solution if price becomes an issue. Plus, it comes with a lifetime warranty.
