Lol it just so happens that I have an HP PSC 2350(I think...It's the Blue All-In-One) on the fritz. Basically whenever you put a photo in it and tell it to print one size it prints a different size.(It does this with whatever size you pick) It is also noteworthy that it is not connected to a computer when it does this. Have you ever heard of anything like this happening? It didn't do this when I first got it either. I personally can not imagine what could be causing this.

well do you have comcast?

Oh...no I don't.

TBH I have the best luck with speed when using an OLD version of Bitcomet. I can't remember what version it was. I am on a new comp that I just got a few days ago and it is on the old comp that is boxed up atm.

I went with another Linksys tho.  Actually went with a G router this time.  I live in a lil po-dunk town so just went to wal-mart.  But seriously thinking about the Netgear router you mentioned.  May have to pick one up next time I am up in Abilene or some where.

Hey Abilene, TX is where I go to get my electronics. =p In fact I am typing on an HP computer from the Circuit City there. Also I am on Wildblue!(Unfortunately) I won't be anymore whenever I move to college on the 23rd of this month though. 

I finally found the specs for the 9700m GTS for anyone that hasn't seen them yet.

Core: G94

Core Freq: 530MHz

Shaders: 48

Shader Freq: 1325MHz

GFlops/s: 190.8

Texture fill-rate: 24(billion/s)

Memory Interface: 256-bit

Memory Clock: 800MHz

Memory Bandwidth: 51.2GB/s

Does anybody know how the 9700m GTS stacks up against the 8800m GTS? The 9700m GTS has less SP (48 vs. 64), but is clocked a bit faster (530MHz vs. 500MHz). I am not sure which one would equate to have the better performance though.

Also I wonder if it would be possible to add another HDD and make the Toshiba a RAID 0?

Yah I looked at that one, but the 8600m video card doesn't quite have the power I was going for.

I'd go with X305, I like the price, maybe faster ram speed will help the cpu.

Plus it looks cool, front loading DVD tray, flaming red color

Turns out DDR3 isn't any faster than DDR2 because of the higher timings atm. But it is indeed sexy.

Ok well I was planning on picking up the Gateway P-173XL in a few weeks, but now Toshiba has come out with a new laptop that looks compelling. I know the Toshiba laptop has faster RAM and I am not sure about the new processor.(It has a slower clock, but a higher bus) I am not sure how the graphics cards compare or which one is the better buy. Setting the price aside which one has better performance?

Toshiba: http://explore.toshiba.com/laptops/q...X305/X305-Q701

Gateway: http://www.gateway.com/systems/product/529668093.php

I'm basically looking for a laptop with 17" screen, at least 3GB of RAM, no video cards lesser in performance to 8800 GTS, and at no more than $2000.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Its on a stand. My mobile home walls wont hold this tv 

Use some spit and glue dammit! Or duck tape.  Duck tape fixes everything. 

What is GSM wireless and is it any different than the Sprint service I have now?

GSM is what AT&T uses...Although I think GSM is a voice network not a data network...

I had a cable connection which is much missed now.  I moved and recently signed up for Sprint wireless for my home connection.  The options for my new location were very limited, dial-up  Wildblue/Hugesnet or Sprint Wireless 

I connect with a Sierrawireless Compass 597 through a Cradlepoint MB1000 router.  Is this all I can expect with this type of connection?

Sadly yes...Does anyone know if AT&T's upgraded EDGE speeds work on the wireless cards too? Because if your area has AT&T's upgraded EDGE you could squeeze 200k out of that connection. I know I get that on my Iphone anyway.

Not so much summer, but i think this may change after looking at some of these in here! wow. 

That movie was awesome! 

that will be on here shortly...probably under the old mobile domain of testmymobile...

we need lots of testers...and post ur scores please very much appreciated

That's the problem with the Iphone...You can't copy and paste.  My scores were pretty well spot on though.(Right around 1.5mb)

I lost a lot of bookmarks in the move to FF3! 

So did I! I am not sure what in the world happened there. 

So far I am loving it!(Of course I loved FF 2 as well)

I tested it on my Iphone and it worked like a charm. Nice site!

What if you could find a program that would make the videos into a screensaver? Set the screensaver to the lowest time to activate, turn on the computer and voila.

I knew you'd be able to prove me wrong. So are you useing a different program to be able to run windows applications? If so, then is there any preformence draw backs? When i would use linux ubuntu i would have to use"wine emulator" to use a windows applications. and i felt like it was much slower then running it on a windows.

That is what i was wondering. ^^^^

hey everyone

i am planning on buying a blue ray player soon and i was wondering if it will work with a HDTV that is only a 720p and not the full 1080p. thanks for any help

mike

Yah that should work great. Personally I can't really tell the difference between 720p and 1080p, but maybe thats just me. *shrug*

All so true. Anyway that hates on Bill Gates I think is just jealous! I mean come on this guy has given more to charity then most of us will make in a lifetime!

Fine then, heres one for the "SHUG"

Lol now that was great!  :2funny:

Shug,  WTF was that about , and which one was you ?

and WTF is COD 4, is it the size of your COD piece ?  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codpiece

  from Middle English cod, "scrotum") 

Call of Duty 4 lol.

Personally I am using Vista and absolutely love it. The cache system really makes my computer fly and I absolutely love the start bar search button. I could never go back to XP.
