  3. Re:Motherboards with Good Looks on Motherboard Preview From Comdex · · Score: 1

    One great looking motherboard (which I own), is the ECS K7S5A. It is a black with a gold chipset heatsink. It's a full ATX form factor and has onboard sound and lan (both of which are supported by the latest linux kernels). It has sockets for both DDR and SDR Ram. The best part about it, is that it's only 57 bucks. (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduct.asp?submit= manufactory&catalog=22&manufactory=1414) It's really the best board for the buck I've seen yet. My only advice when getting this board is to make sure you have a good quality power supply, because the power regulation circuitry on it isn't as sophisticated as something from ABit or FIC.

  4. Wait a sec guys, on Carmack On ATI's Driver Modifications · · Score: 1

    Not only is this old news, but ATI has since removed the Quake 3 optimizations (http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.html?i=155 8&p=3) from the drivers, and improved them all around. While they're not perfect yet, I am still going to buy a Radeon 8500 DV when it comes out because it has features (TV in + out and remote) that the GF3 doesn't with about the same raw performance.

  5. I had a friend last month do this.. on Dump Broadband, Dig Out Your Modem! · · Score: 1

    he dropped @Home cable because it was capped so badly that he actually got faster service with AOL. So he simply switched. Money wasn't the deciding factor. It was simply that the cable service was so horrible that it wasn't worth the aggravation of trying to get the knothead techs to fix it.

    I never thought I'd reply to a AC or troll like this, but thanks for giving me a good kick in the nuts. I needed that. I mean, sure I used linux on my firewall box, but am I really USING it? when I realized that the very machine I was using IS on the same web browser as my grandma, it really hit home. I'm really going to take that extra duron machine I have and put it to good use. Thanks for the insight, whoever you are.

    last night I experienced a similar problem on my machine. Someone had been using various proxies to proxy through my machine to various pay for click type sites. I quickly put an end to this by commenting out modproxy in my apache config. Whether this is related I don't know. One thing is for sure though. the rise of lame people is happing at an exponential rate. It will only continue to get worse from here. :\

  15. This kind of stunt wouldn't work with my cd burner on CD Copy "Protection" in California · · Score: 1

    A quote from the article:
    The patents say the system deliberately gives some of the digital code on the CD "grossly erroneous values", adding bursts of hiss to the audio signal. In addition, the error-correction codes on the CD, which would normally correct such errors, are distorted. So error correction fails, leaving tiny gaps in the music.

    Well, this wouldn't work with my yamaha 8424 cd burner because the thing acts like a miniature cd player when used in burst mode. Basically all this copy protection means is that when real errors occur (i.e. scratches), that they won't be repairable through c2 or other means. Plus with this kind of trickery they won't get the CD digital audio logo certification.
