  1. model of the router would be nice!! how are you connected.. ethernet wireless??
  2. Has anyone seen the fact that the pop-up blocker has been by passed on the new build of firefox? I just saw a site that could go around.. it launched the java client then displayed the ad.
  3. Well lets see here 2800+ sempron vs. 2.8 celeron.. 3200+ is FASTER than a 2.0 celeron.. of course it is slower in the memory department than the celeron because of the fsb difference.. 533 vs 333 just incase you didnt know that.. O by the way.. the new D series is a hell of alot faster then the Celeron of the past generation... Here is a handy little guide for you: I only quote people who dont know what the hell they are talking about.. like you As for doom 3.. if we reference the chart above.. the 3000+ is about the same a a P4 520(2.8 ) on the 925x chip set.. running DDRII 533.. well if we take that an reference Hard OCP's hardware guide for Doom 3 here is what they say...http://www2.hardocp.com/article.html?art=NjQ0LDg= look like you will be able to run doom 3 fine.. if you want even more proof check out the 2500+ XP processor.. http://www2.hardocp.com/article.html?art=NjQ0LDY= I think that 60gig is light now a days.. there are very few off the shelf computers that have anything less than 60gigs.. Apple is the only one that offer of the shelf systems with 40 gigs.. 120 gigs is about intermediate.. Between DVD movies, mp3, pictures, and other crap 120 has become the intermediate standard for most computer companies.. Yes, Hp/Compaq are the same.. HP offers high quality components than Compaq.. that is how it has always been.. If you are looking low budget stick with comaq.. you can get more for your money.. if you want some high quality parts, processors, hard drives, graphics, and other stuff.. Hp is the way to go.. However, you are still going to get the tech support from india.. I think that I might know what I am talking about.. or maybe I dont.. But i for sure as hell know that a a 3000 isnt slower than 2.0 on a celeron.. by the way the next time that you tell me that AMD makes a 3200+ Sempron I am going to scream and run away!! the fastest that they make is the 3100+ maybe you need to research before you post.. http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/ProductInformation/0,,30_118_11599_11604,00.html that lets you know what processor are currently available for the Sempron platform..
  4. 1 and 2 are the exact same.. just different hard drives... one is compaq the other is hp.. both based on the Sempron 3200+ and 256mb of ram.. You will not be able to game with an intergrated card than shares memory on 256mb.. there is just no way.. 3 you might be able to but it will not be doom 3 or anything like that..
  5. Found it.. Por Una Cabeza that is the name of the song.. throw it into bestbuy's website and click on scent of a woman.. you can here the sample..
  6. Dedicated means that it has its own memory.. shared means that it uses the system memory.. I would stay away from Shared!! or replace it with a dedicated card... It will take memory away from the system.. most of the time in the beginning of the memory so that your seach times in the memory are longer meaning that your system runs slower..
  7. it is the beginning to a song.. I know it is.. I just need to know the name.. it is a famous tango..
  8. so we have no idea?? come one guys I need some help..
  9. #3 is the best bet... it will be the fastest.. and most likely the most expensive of the 3 choices. Eitherway you are going to get the HP/compaq quality.. and the tech support from India.. 512 MB DDR-SDRAM with up to 64 MB allocated to video memory Get a AGP graphics card!
  10. just about every website is written for IE.. no suprise that ff isnt the fastest..
  11. it is right after he says I am going to borrow this..
  12. Hey guys I have a question.. what is the song that is playing in this movie trailer while they are dancing? Thanks! http://www.apple.com/trailers/fox/mrandmrssmith/
  13. awesome! glad to see that you are even faster!
  14. but is that pc3200?? that is what the original question was about.. anything lower than that would create a bottle neck..
  15. this does a good job of explaining the difference.. It basically is networking, security, and management.. It is ideal for the workplace.. but alot of people, including me, prefer pro.. It just give you alot more options http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/windowsxp_home_pro.asp
  16. Nortan was great!! i just like trend because it is all in one package.. not a seprate firewall and virus scan.
  17. Ever heard of ME.. LOL that was a mistake! that was called 98 with some crappy features and rushed to get some of the money from 2000...
  18. maybe your new modem doesnt handel the lag very well.. Who knows..
  19. I have nothing to do tomorrow.. I will see if I cant find a fix..
  20. Trendmicro Internet Security is my fav right now.. I have used nortan, ZA, and a few other free one.. the thing that I like about TM is that you can scan for wireless clients that are not supost to have acess to your network.. Very helpful! and the updates are about every 10 hours or so.. Very current! Take a look well worth the 49.99 price tag..
  21. ordered mine tonight.. the report that I read was the boxes before 03 were ok.. but i guess not.. 2001 box and now i am getting a new cord.. at Microsofts expence!
  22. hmm my guess is that it isnt as accurate as CA3LE's.. you might have the burst speed figured into the speed..
  23. You have a source on that?? that would be great if you did. .go figure something that wouldnt sell so he buys the code and copyright..
  24. onboard will be faster.. it is already on the southbridge.. which means that it has a direct connection to the system bus.. You might not see the speed on the internet but if you are on a lan and are swapping large file you might see it..
  25. what is with this small text crap? lol funny some of the comments.
