How about 'get an operating system that works with my hardware?' People shouldn't need to buy something new just to get it work with Linux, so this is a lame "pro tip."
From the website:
"SAVVIS has done extensive engineering to ensure that any Datacenter located in a region prone to seismic activity is braced for such events. Design elements include, seismic isolation equipment to cushion facilities against movement as well as seismic bracing earthquake bracing on all equipment racks. All SAVVIS Datacenters have racks anchored to the concrete slab below the raised floor."
Pretty niche? 9 million players worldwide (plus another 3.5m for TBC) compared to only 11.6 million Xbox 360's SHIPPED worldwide? 26 million PSP's sold, which is indeed a lot, but one single computer game that not only sells, but has subscribers in those numbers definitely isn't "niche."
I've used Dreamweaver pretty successfully to clean up a lot of poor HTML since it has pretty good functionality. I don't really have any suggestions as far as other tools go but for general single page cleanup I like DW. I've cleaned up quite a few huge documents that someone just saved as a webpage out of Word and ended up with 2 MB of HTML. Not really sure if that would work for your batch processing needs but if you have excessive issues with single pages I would recommend it.
I don't have much on there... installers for Spyboy and AVG/Avast, CPU-Z, Firefox, Flash player, an Undelete software, FileMon, ProcessExplorer, and the WCG agent that I install when no one's looking.;)
I've had good and bad experiences with automated voice systems. Most recently I dealt with SBC (AT&T) and their system wanted me to "just say" what I wanted and got on the right track but couldn't quite understand what I was asking for. UPS's system isn't bad if you want to do simple things like track (which you would do online anyway) but I always had to talk to a rep to get anything done.
On another note in being frustrated with automated phone answering things, I called EVGA tech support the other day and they had what seemed to me to be a pretty slick system. It immediately told you how many people were before you and what the estimated wait time was, and it would inform you of this every minute or so, making you feel that you were really making progress. Or you could press # or some key, and it would store your phone number and call you back when you reached the front of the queue so you didn't really have to wait.
There was an article about this in the September issue of PCGamer, they interviewed the lead programmer at id about the sort of computer you'd need to run, and a little about the way the game works, and how it affects what will increase performance or not. PCIe won't do you any good, neither will a 64-bit processor, neither will a cool sound card, as all sound-processing is done by the CPU. Other random facts: on 64MB video cards, textures are downsized, on 128MB video cards, everything runs at full resolution but compressed, and on a 256MB card, everything is full quality except for compressed specular and diffuse textures. Robert Duffy also quoted 512MB of ram as being ideal, and 1GB being the benchmark for running the game in Ultra Quality.
And for those of you keeping score, a GeForce 6800 edges out a Radeon X800 by just a little bit. =D
First off, I like how the officer describes it as a "motorized two wheeled walking machine", and then squeezed in the word "unique" in the police report... I wasn't aware the Segway actually WALKS! =)
The article claims that "Intel is marketing the Centrino, a 1.6 Ghz chip". However... as I understood from the information on Intel's site, the Centrino ISN'T the actual chip, but a set of components:
* Intel® Pentium® M Processor
* Intel® 855 chipset family
* Intel® PRO/Wireless network connection
Further explaining:
Intel Corporation said today Intel® Centrino(TM) mobile technology is the new brand name for its upcoming wireless mobile computing technology.

No its one of those "poems" where you just write some prose and toss in line breaks .

Hmm... where's Waldo?
Wouldn't that make it the "Apple Newton"?
Couldn't that be confused with a cookie?

I sure hope you DON'T use that manual to enjoy yourself! You might want to try reading it first. Or maybe printing it out. =)

Wouldn't that be 17,232nd? =)
