  1. Re:I may be an idiot on 3Com's 10/100 Switching... Wallplate · · Score: 2

    i don't think you're a troll, but i don't think that most jacks would have all four ports maxxed out at the same time.

    My 6 foot long drill-bit has a hole in the tip so I can drill down, wander downstairs, tie the wire on and pull it back.


    holy shit! a 6 foot drill bit? that's taller than me. isn't it cumbersome?

    (notice the proper use of the word than? :)
  4. Re:Limited Usefulness on 3Com's 10/100 Switching... Wallplate · · Score: 3, Insightful

    from the article (pardon the formatting):

    Cost To Run 4 Active Network Ports | Cost To Run 4 Active Network Port Using The NJ100

    Wire Install (4 - Wires)...$467.32 | $335.65
    Power Over Ethernet..........N / A | $70.00
    Per Patch Panel Port........$19.50 | $4.88
    3ft Patch Panel Cable........$8.44 | $2.11
    Switch Port................$363.44 | $90.86
    Gigabit Switch Port.........$51.85 | $12.96
    Maintenance Per Year........$48.00 | $12.00
    Total......................$958.56 | $528.46

    anyways, considering its almost half the cost as installing 4 jacks, and about 400% easier...

    how much would it cost for an access point and 4 802.11 NICs that can handle 100Mb?

  6. Re:NTSC out? on Toshiba Pocket PC e570 Review · · Score: 1

    S-video, rca? i'd even be happy with VGA out.

    with a wireless connection or microdrive, you'd have a sweet pocket divx machine.

    i don't know about presentations or whatever, but it seems like the more ways you have to distribute and/or look at porn, the better off you will be.

    A real hit joystick controls the screen,
    Solaris is hot and Midnight Magic's mean,
    And one more thing, it's got a special low price,
    Under 50 bucks, under 50 bucks?!

    Any one else remember those old atari 2600 commercials? when the 2600 was $49.99? It was a rap song and it was like "under 50 bucks - 50 bucks ? - now isn't that nice?"

    i miss atari.

  10. Re:Soul Calibur on Sega Drops Dreamcast Price To $50 · · Score: 1

    i agree that this is one of the best fighting games, but have you guys tried Dead or Alive 3 on the xBox?

    you'll only have to spend $350 more to get it, but i think that it beats Soul Calibur.
