Ahh.. that's a bit more informative than what I saw earlier. That is pretty nice... although it does have to power over 7 tons empty...

I'm still holding 5th.. pretty good for using DWay (the work units take forever to be submitted... plus I can't get big work units)

The truck is nice but I'm not real impressed with the engine...

You can just burn it... that's what Shug7272 said in his last 2 posts.

http://www.cdmediaworld.com/hardware/cdrom/cd_utils_3.shtml has a few utilities... also depending on the software you use I think you can overburn the disk for basic protection... (which is about the same thing these utilities do)

Well, any protection can be bypassed/cracked if desired...

This is 2Gpbs not 2GB/s... it's bits not bytes

I'd like it but I don't have $100 to spend on a case...

Nahh.. that's not the fastest... I think the fastest in use is OC-256 which is a bit over 13.2Gbps. I believe there is also a project that had speeds in the Tbps range.

lol... the news stories are the best

Yea... I had the ends of a jumper cable (connected to a 1200CCA battery) touch once. I'll tell ya, I haven't done that since and I don't plan on doing it in the future. I haven't had too many bad experiences with high voltages (<220v) although I found out the disposable camera labels aren't kidding when they say "CAUTION: To avoid risk of electric shock DO NOT open camera." I accidently touched part of the board when the flash was charged... I'm not planning on doing that again anytime soon either.

I have an APC Smart-UPS 620... quite nice. I only get a couple minutes of runtime, but that's because I have it about maxed out.

Slight problem with that plan... it didn't work on autodetect.

Yea, that's a bit bigger than my Optiplex. Mine has a centrifugal fan sucking air through the heatsink and blowing it out the back of the case.

I capitalized the a in your name for you... As for your sound card, I don't really know maybe someone else can help. I had a similar problem on my old computer but never got it fixed.

Yea... those Optiplexes need fans lol... a tight case like that needs air movement or it'll overheat fast. At least the fan is working again, hopefully for a decent amount of time.

If it says limited or no connectivity when set to automatic it means you aren't getting an IP address from the DHCP server for some reason. You'll have to set it manually, but to do that you need to know the IP address of the router.

Yea, if that fan isn't running replace it NOW... lol. What model Dell?

Nice (I just realised I'm using the word nice a lot lately...)

Nice, hunting what?

(I was too lazy to type this earlier... lol) Ok, so you're looking at the image you want to get full sized. Click the Print-at-Home button above the image. Click the Get Started button. In the popup window, right click and click View Page Source or the likes (I don't know about IE) Now you're looking at the page source. Not too far down (about 28 lines) you'll see 4 javascript arrays. You want the link(s) from the arrImgLandscape array (or arrImgPortrait, depending on the picture orientation). So basically look for the line that says arrImgLandscape[0] = "http://us.f6.yahoofs.com/users/randomstring/__hr_/afile.jpg?randomstring"; copy between the quotation marks and paste in the address bar of your browser. Full size image This can be done for multiple pictures at once as well... use the checkboxes in the album view and follow the same procedure from there on. The image urls will be arrImgLandscape[0], arrImgLandscape[1], arrImgLandscape[2]... and so on, one for each image you selected.

Wireless speed isn't going to be near 54Mbps. With my Cisco wireless PCI cards I can only get 16Mpbs (in ad hoc mode... I don't have a router to test it with)

Heh... I never noticed that before either. At least I don't have anything important on there... ok... I figured out a workaround but it takes a bit of work (not too much though)

Maybe the internet is just that slow...

Lower is better
