  1. Re:Blanket statement isn't true on New Chip-cooling Technology · · Score: 1

    He said most allergens, especially from animals. This is true. The only useful air filters are ones that are equipped with HEPA filters. You can actually seea piece of your hair move from one end of the floor to the filter, 5 feet away, or dust in the air float towards it, from 10 feet away. "ionic air filters" are a scam, as I said before, your monitor works as good as it does at cleaning the air.

    lol, "ionic breeze" thing. Enjoy your early death.

  3. Re:Ozone on New Chip-cooling Technology · · Score: 1

    Those ion air filters are a scam, they work about as well as your monitor does at cleaning the air. Also, the ozone they create is deadly, good thing though, because morons who buy them without doing even a tiny amount of research, and thinking the advetizing point of "produces ozone!!!1111!" is great, deserve to die from the polluted air they are creating.

    Ozone is poisonous to breath, stop promoting your incorrect and deadly information.

    "Few of those artistic decisions can be replicated by Dolby ProLogic II Music, or other DSPs. Unfortunately, a lot of surround music was just piped through a DSP at the studio, and the results recorded as a "5.1" mix."

    This is the issue with studio releases. It's sad when a home user can actually upmix a stereo source into a better sounding 5.1 CD than the studio has released.

    Try Google with "Doom9 DTS" or "DTS Upmix". There is years of articles and posts to read. It seems that the technology has even advanced by leaps in the last year, possibly to complete automation.

    You obviously have no idea how upmixing to 5.1 works. I suggest you search Doom9 for DTS upmixing before you try to be funny and fail horribly again.

    That has been the case in the music industry for about 5-6 years now, ever since we figured out how to burn/play 4.1+ channel audio CDs. You can upmix any stereo CD into a 5.1 album right on your own P4. The best part is that home made upmixes have, time and again, proven to sound better than what the studios put out.

    They are still selling their mono/stereo 50 year old music albums for $20+, why would they care to put any work into promoting any higher quality?

  11. Re:Laserjets do this too.. on InkJet Printers Lying, Or Just Wrong? · · Score: 1

    My Brother isn't crap. It's actually the top rated laser printer (for its price range) right now, for good reason! It helps that I got it for less than the lower model.

    I probably won't run out of ink on the half-sized cart that came with it for a few years, and then the new cart will likely last me another 5+ after that (if they even exist by then).

    Edit: I re-read your comment on the preview and you said soho. Mine isn't soho (but I got it on super sale for less than that price) :)
