Doom, Quake & Quake2 are out for the console market. Personally I've played Doom for a 32bit attachment for a sega, and it looks decent.\ And I've seen the commercials for Quake& QUake 2 for N64. I've also seen Riven for Playstation, and since you can get a mouse, it can't be that bad
I'd be happy to test a couple of there PIII 1ghz computers, if I got the thing free in the end. Hell, I'd just need the proccesor, my motherboard supports up to a P3 1024ghz if I put a clock doubler on it
I'll miss copper, we had many good times together. My first computer was a magnet wrapped with a copper wire (you could call it a 286 too.) Hopefully fiberoptics will get better. Just think, in 50 years we'll find something better then fiber-optic, and everyone will be pissed because we yoink up everything again and replace it. The only thing is the fiber-optic line put up by my telephone company stops 1 telephone pole before my house. It sucks!! now I can't get ADSL (Zoomtown here in cincinati). I hate living out in the country! I might have to share it with my neigbor and run Coax. networking underground to use it.
Yes, do you wonder why you IDIOT!!?? Now lets think, 300 vs 650mhz voodoo2 vs new graphics card My god, some people are just thick Still, I say AMD and Celerons suck. I built my own computer with an intel chip and mobo, and ran into now problems. Built my moms computer with Athlon chip and some cheezola Athlon mobo, and couldn't even get it to work wihout having to send the whole dang thing back
Sorry to burst your alls bubble, but AMD sucks. They are slow and unresponsive, and they are not compatible with Intel mobo's. I hate them. They are relative to Intel Celerons. They say they are clocked at 500mhz, but feel like a 133.

Yeah, I know they use Athlons, but if you read the fine print, they say you can upgrade them, meaning you can switch the processors. Maybe I like a heavy case!, I never even look at my case, I have an external scsi cdrom, and an extra long wire for my floppy with an attachment to plug it into an ac/dc switcher, So I can set the crap on my desk, and the case sits behind a door in my attic.
This is a good idea, but I wonder how the guy figured it out in the first place? Maybe this is a deal with promise, and then they'll come up with a chip upgrade that will only work on the regulare raid controllers, that would suck! I have an older promise66 in my computer, but I ain't gona screw with it, 1. its YourWare from gateway 2. Its my moms system to, She'd burn me I screwed it up 3. I'm waiting for raid built into to a motherboard, and operates at hardware level, so that even the bios knows not that its a raid device. 4. Uh, I ran out of ideas AS Einstein say=
I can order a 1.1GHZ machine from Kryotech as a barebones system for around 2200$. Besides its frozen (40 C below I believe), so it will last longer than any other proccesor. BTW I hate AMD. The crappy proccesors they make are unresponsive and slow. Kind of like how a celeron can be clocked at 500mhz, but feels like a 133mhz. I know flame me, but thats my opinion, SO BITE ME
I buy almost all my computer stuff from a company in California ( I'm in ohio), and they charge like a 2% tax. I buy the stuff because its so cheap though. I got a Pent400 Intel everything (mobo, processor) barebones system , with a brandnew viewsonic 17" Monitor and put all the parts in it from my newly upgraded pent120 and paid less then 700$ for the whole deal. The only sucky thing is that it only has a 8x cdrom. BTW does anyone know where I can get a decent 10k-rpm hard drive around 8gigs for around 150$? I've seen one from IBM, but it was only 7200 rpm.
KDE looks ok, but I've never been able to get my sound to work in it. The first Linux distro I ever used (SUSE about 2 years ago)never worked, so I didn't mess with it for a while. Now I tried Caldera with OSS sound system installed, and it don't work, and redhat 6.1 doesn't work, even though with gnome and enlightenment and works fine and dandy. Does anyone know what I need to do?
Wouldn't it be nice if these PDA's had an Cat-5 adapter on them, and you could just set up a network with it, and your computer would just think its a regular computer its sending and recieving file from
No it was a CD-r but there was space left over, and it let me re-mount it with my cd maker software and add more stuff. I might of been stretching the truth a touch when I said 50megs though, more like 20-25
I got one of these in the mail on time, and it turned out it was a home-brewed cd, because it was a CD-R, and it still had a little room left on it, so I deleted the crap of it, and was able to fit a good 50megs on there of shareware games to give to a friend who doesn't have the internet
Sorry to break topic, but.. I'm looking into getting a 10gb IDE Hd from IBM to split between Win9.x and Linux. I remember hearing soemthing that Linux can't use higher than 4.0 Gb, Is this still true? and is there anything else I should know? this is my first harddrive upgrade in 4 years. THanks, I'm using Redhat 6.1
Sorry to breaktopic, but I'm looking into buying an 10gb IDE hard drive from IBM or maybe seagate. I'd split it between Linux and Windows. I remember hearing that Linux can't use more than a 4gb hard drive or something, Is this still true? I'm using RedHat 6.1 Does anyone have suggestions? Thanks!

yeah, but ten to one, it has a low resolution
