Likely, the only way would be some sort of forensic recovery from all the drives and a reassembly job. That would be incredibly time consuming, and, unless you've got the tools to do it yourself, expensive. As stated above, back everything up in advance. However, one thing that might...

I'm glad someone's actually trying something here in the "I want all media free" average internet teenager vs. "You will pay 3 trillion dollars for downloading a CD" media conglomerates. Personally, I'm in favor of the enforcement of Intellectual Property laws, and a lot of people just have...

There will be multiple colors, but not at launch. They're keeping the launch to white only so that buyers don't have to scramble around looking for a store that has the right color.

Also, even if there isn't a shortage, you probably won't be able to just walk into EB and pick one up on launch day. National chains distribute stock based on pre-orders, so if nobody pre-orders a Wii at your local EB, they'll only get a handful shipped to them.

Posting since I broke 100k a week or so ago. Been folding for almost 2 years now, so it's not a remarkable feat to have 100k, but it feels good to finally get there.

Hey, it's free. What do you want? A free domain for life? (And who's to say they won't do this again next year, anyways?)

For now, until the end of the month, get the 20 Euro annual fee for Belgian domains waived at htp://www.eurodns.com I think it might only be free for US and UK residents, as I've heard of it assessing a 4 Euro fee to some people. Just pay attention while you're checking out. EDIT -...

My plans are to: 1) If the Revolution launches at $200 or less, grab it immediately, assuming there are a couple of games at launch I want. 2) If the 360 drops to $250-$300 (for the higher-end model, not the core system), grab one. There are a lot of sweet looking titles, but they're...

I think the bigger douchebags are the ones who bought a whole bunch to sell them for $1000 on Ebay. If he's gonna take one he has no interest in using, at least he's not sucking more money away from the other people who want them.

Wow, I barely even played and still held someone to 29... This week should be good, since I'll actually be able to leave this thing running AND connected to the internet once I'm back at school today.

Well, a few key points here.... The name 'CellBlock' doesn't have much to do with prison... I'm currently doing time at Penn State, not the state pen. I'm certainly not looking to violate anybody's butt (except maybe metaphorically). Seriously, though, thanks for the pick. I hope my...

That'll work. It means all those 600-pointers will be going back to my proper folding name, then.

When my school goes on winter break (in mid December), I'm going to need to switch boxen, as I believe they cut the power to the dorms at some point during the three-week closure. If you'd rather for the ease of the contest, I can switch now since we're doing an extra week of preseason, but...

I was "beaten" in that I had basically posted:

EDIT - Beaten, and I can't seem to delete the post.

0 [H]orde|Bowl points just means you're losing in each category, I believe.

Testing... EDIT: Not there... fixing now...

count me in, too. btw, I'm writing this by hand on my new tablet. It's sexy and will start folding soon.

Meh... I don't have Doom 3, so I'll just wait for whenever a Q4 demo comes out. I'm assume one will hit the net around release time, if not sooner.

I can be the resident slow folder if you need one on the show. I can give tips on how to keep that one box folding, since it's the only one. Meh, I just wanna be an internet celebrity...

How bad is Q4 gonna choke systems? I've got a P4 [email protected] (depends on the weather) with a gig of RAM and a Radeon 9700 Pro. Will I be able to play Q4 at a decent level of detail and resolution, specifically 1280x1024 at "medium" settings? 1024x768?

Well, it would be great if they got it out in December. Not that I'm particularly looking forward to it, but just to make sure they don't hit the 9 year mark of development. Then again, I'd kind of like to see it hit 10 years. If it's not out by January 2007, I'm definitely throwing an...

FilePlanet is generally a good place. Most other download sites (FileShack, GamersHell, etc.) have the same content, but FilePlanet has decent organization.

I think I just used it. I changed the I to a 1 when I typed it, but when it spit it back, it used an I. Either way, thanks for the code or the inspiration for a new code.

I would go with UT2k4 (I know, hold on a sec) and then get some mods that are a bit slower paced. If you're looking for another war sim, Red Orchestra is a good one. FragOps is sort of a CS clone. I'm sure there are some other mods that aren't as frantic as the standard deathmatch play, but...

Meh, I'll probably do this, but I'm gonna need some more details, particularly when it starts so I don't start taking points away from my main name too early.

It's great that they can get that kind of detail in a Madden game, but seriously, how often during a game are you going to see a scene like that. Unless you're playing by yourself and using the Helmet Cam (Is that even still in there?) you're generally playing from some distance and from...

Because your power supply is what runs all your other stuff. If you spend $1000 on components, but only $25 on your power supply, there's a good chance your shiny new computer won't even run properly. Don't just go for one with a high wattage rating, either. Get something solid. I believe...

Wow. You are just absolutely clueless and completely adamant in staying that way, aren't you? When you buy software at a store, you do own certain things. You own the box, the documentation, and the media. You DO NOT (See, I can type really big, too, asshat.) own the software itself...

The important thing is to make sure that the computer still isn't trying to read/write to the device. If it's not doing anything, unplugging shouldn't have any effect, but if the device is being read from or written to, things can get corrupted. If your drive has some kind of indicator on...

Well, a 3 GHz CPU isn't necessarily always running at 3 GHz. Laptop processors often throttle back (slow down) when they're idle to minimize power consumption and heat output. When a processor is idle, it's basically not running at all. Under load, it just runs until the instructions it's...

Um... Not sure what you're talking about here. Generally, the "clock speed" IS the CPU speed. If you're referring to the external clock, then the CPU speed is a multiple of the external clock. For example, my external clock is set at 150 MHz and my CPU speed is 20 times that, or 3 GHz.

Hey, that link doesn't work!

Not to mention the fact that this is the Gaming and Gaming Equipment Forum... I almost feel bad for making an IBTL post. Oh well, IBTL.

Meh, I know this works, but here it is anyways for the +1.

Put some water in first before turning the pump on. Running the pump dry is what causes issues. Pour in a good bit (I'd say as much as you can, but I've never actually done this, just read up on it. If someone else says differently, I'll stand corrected.) then start the pump until the...

What is Java good for? Java is good for Web Development. Web Services are leaning more and more towards a JSP/J2EE platform. GMail (and some other Google stuff) is done with AJAX. Java apps might be unwieldy at times, but in the right hands, they're not better or worse than apps written...

I usually just say 'H' while drawing some imaginary square brackets with my fingers, almost like "air quotes."

Yeah, the EB I was in didn't even know about the bundles, so I think they're online only. It's a good thing, too. Most people probably aren't interested in paying $700+ for a $400 console. (Although, if you've got the cash, you're probably gonna spend it on games anyway... but seriously...

I'm thinking a 360 so I can get high-def and whatnot for cheaper than a PS3, and perhaps a Revolution because I miss my Mario games. Of course, I'll be waiting on both so I can actually afford them. When my next scholarship installment comes in in January, I might just have to burn a bit of it.
