  1. DAMN you IE6 People you make my life so much harder, can't you all just swtich so i have one less browser to code my site for.
  2. are they SATA hard drives?
  3. i remember paying 60 bucks for 1GB 4 months ago. I just got 2GB of notebook ram the other week for $85, this stuff has gotten so cheap. even a 2GB stick is cheap now.
  4. what plan do you have?
  5. glad you got fixed for the most part, hopefully it will last.
  6. na, it will still be here first lol
  7. see if you can find out what wireless chipset it uses. I looked for a few minutes but i couldn't find it.
  8. now you have http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827131047 They don't use sata much on optical drives because there is no benefit, the disk just can't have its info pulled fast enough for sata. The only reason to use a SATA dvd rom is for cable management
  9. a 4400+ can handel that with no problem as long as there is plenty of ram, and a fast hard drive.
  10. AGP is just about dead. There will most likely not be a gefore 8 series agp video card. There have been talks of AGP 40x and there are AGP 16x cards, but they are still slower then PCIE.
  11. So with less then a month till they will be available who is going to get one? I will get one the day it comes out, unless i here that the LG Prada is coming to the states
  12. Have you given your ISP a call when your pings are high?

    D-Link Router

    Thats something that is a windows problem that got fixed in vista. Its something to do with DHCP.
  15. That artical is way old and before OS X Tiger which had many of the improvements that i mentioned. One thing that i did not notice them mention is that your going to have to want to get a virus because on a mac you would have to tell it to start because you never run as root so it doesnt allow you to modify any system settings with out you tell it to. Its a app called parallels desktop. It allows you to install windows inside its own virtual machine in OSX, And since it doesn't use emulation its just as fast as a regular full windows desktop. There is a program called crossover that allows you to run windows app's with out even running windows.
  16. another thing ive gotta say security aside you can't do this on a pc
  17. No true... Its just a better OS, and a proven OS its been around for 20 years with no problems. I completely forgot to mention the read and write permissions windows doesn't have that and it would make the biggest difference if windows did have it. If windows didn't let you run as root all the time you wouldn't have 90% of the security problems that windows does.
  18. No ture, Vista is no were as secure as OSX. OSX is BSD unix so it has security built all through out it. Vista is still windows no matter which way you cut it there is still a registry there is still open file systems, you still run as admin by default. UAC isnt going to last very long, epically when most people turn it off. There have been viruses made for the mac, the problem is you have to be a slack dumb ass for them to do anything. There was one that went around a few months ago through email attachments but to get infected you had to download it, run, type your password 4 times before it would start the install, then you had to do it again because it had a license agreement in it. its not that people don't bother to hack a mac, its just too hard to infect them.
  19. There is a big difference. One is secure, guess which one isnt Most of the stuff in vista is stolen from osx vista's search its just spotlight Vista's gadgets are mac's widgets movie maker & dvd maker is like imovie and idvd now the list goes on read this one: http://www.informationweek.com/news/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=196800670&pgno=1&queryText=
  20. :haha: http://www.macrumors.com/2007/05/04/southpark-get-a-mac-ad/
  21. I meant mac pro Dell XPS 1.86Ghz Core 2 Duo 1gb ram (4GB max) 320GB hard dirve 256MB 8600GT single dvd drive $2629 Apple Mac Pro Two 2.66GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon 1GB ram (16GB max) 500GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512MB One 16x SuperDrive $2748 The mac has 2 dual core processors the dell only 1 dual core processor, The dell can only do 4GB of ram, the mac 16GB, the dell only 2 hard drives the mac can fit 4, the dell does 2 video cards, the mac can do 4. so for the extra $119 you get alot more.
  22. same here, they are quite expensive, but they are alot cheaper then a dell with the same specs.
