Ok, if the feds find out that you have child pr0n on your computer, then they will seize it. But what if you sabatoge your HD at the last moment? Then the nice feds will need evidence - the backups - hundreds of other people's computers. It is possible, and it's something to think about.
Dude - it's right there in the article. There is so much info in there - I had to read it 3 times. I'm not flaming you:-)
Mary's computers are moonlighting for other people. But they're not giving anything away for free. As her PC works, pennies trickle into her virtual bank account
I can't believe you got sooo much karma for that! The person before you posted it, saying that he wasn't going to post the link. All you do is post the link and get +5??? The Anandtech hotdeal effect is great enough, and now that we have added the/. geeks to this "deal" it surely won't go through.
Oh well, I ordered one! I've always wanted to sue a large corporation:)
honestly, if you want the newest, you will have to always pay about $300-$400 (about every 6 months). I have the GeForce2 Pro/TI450, and it works great. Then, I saw my roommate's GF3TI500 and I was in awe. Go figure. I must have better graphics, so I believe I need the GF4-4600:-)
lemme get this straight - you are saying that if I install a real sound card, the performance will decrease? Ok, so now, I have the onboard sound. I am planning on getting a SoundBlaster Platinum. You are saying that if I do, my gaming performance will suffer? I don't get it.
Seems to me, that my onboard sound would use the processor. If I add a sound card, it would be processed on the sound card. Kinda like a SCSI controller.
I don't believe that slashdot would be considered a foreign news source. Well, it could be....but it could also be argued that it is just a forum where people post.
Thank god I live in the US:-)
Slashdot Mirror
I'd be happy to.

Actually, I think they are suggesting a "pay-per-view" system. :-)
Which means, one person will pay, and then share the movie
I know, but I can dream, right?
:(

ok, I'd agree with that.
fair enough!
ok, that makes sense. I wasn't aware that the macs worked in this way. Cool. (or, not cool for gamers)

You are inplying that you know more than he does? Why? Because you like macs and he doesn't?
ya - the computer I just built for aroung $600 can do 145fps (32bit, 1024, etc.(timedemo)).
Food for thought.
Epox 8k7v+, 1.4t-bird, GeForce2 Ti-450, 512MB crucial.
