Five Power Supplies Compared
EconolineCrush writes "Tech Report has done up a comparison of five high-end power supplies that looks at actual voltage levels and AC ripple content. The article also takes a look at environmental factors like noise levels and each power supply's impact on system temperatures. Think power supplies with like wattages are created equal? Think again."
since when is some bullcrap article about 5 power supplies being compared front page worthy?
Why does such an obvious high-quality product always get ignored?
Because they dont give out free products for "review". They dont need to, as they dont sell to hobbyists through CompUSA.
Articles like this are a form of marketing. The only "conclusion" they ever reach is "spend as much as possible!"
I don't need no instructions to know how to rock!!!!
HATCH INTRODUCES DREAM ACT
"Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors Act" Aims to Make the American Dream a Reality for Many
Washington - Sen. Orrin G. Hatch (R-Utah), Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, today introduced "The Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act," or "The DREAM Act," to remove barriers to education for many young immigrants in the United States. Senator Richard Durbin (D-IL) is the Democratic cosponsor of this measure.
"Many youngsters find themselves caught in a catch-22 situation," stated Hatch. "As illegal immigrants, they cannot work legally. Moreover, they are effectively barred from developing academically beyond high school because of the high cost of pursuing higher education."
"In short, though these children have built their lives here, they have no possibility of achieving and living the American dream," continued Hatch. "What a tremendous loss to our society."
"I believe the DREAM Act will live up to its name," added Hatch. "It will allow these illegal immigrant children the opportunity to not only dream of the infinite possibilities that their futures may hold in the United States, but it will also afford them the opportunity to realize their dreams. With the passage of the DREAM Act, the United States stands to benefit enormously."
Provisions of the DREAM Act include:
Repealing the provision of federal law that prevents States from granting in-state tuition to undocumented aliens, leaving this issue at the discretion of the States.
Providing young men and women who immigrated to the United States prior to the age of sixteen, who have lived in this country at least five years, and who are of good moral character a chance to earn their conditional resident status upon acceptance by an institution of higher learning or upon graduation from high school. The DREAM Act also provides for certain alternatives like attending community college, trade school, serving in our armed forces, or performing community service.
