so what exactly then is the fastest solution?
they dont exactly specify that at the end of the review.
i've got some x-mas money to spend, and I'm not sure weather I should buy a AMD 64-bit chip (to prepare for the onslaught of 64-bit software) or to buy the latest p4 chip?
I'm looking for the fastest solution and a solution that will carry me the longest time (at least a year and a half)
Hey Cliff, I was in the EXACT same situation you were in....EXACT. and if anyone tells you to have more discipline....hearing that over and over is just going to make you feel even worse about yourself, because if you were like me, locking yourself inself in a room with no distrasctions whatsoever led you to daydreaming over your homework.
last year, my freshmen year of college, my one friend from down the hall in my dorm gave me a pill of Adderall (he's prescribed it for ADD, so....no he's not a crazy amphetamine drug dealer). now, keep in mind, this drug is WIDELY abused among my age group, and people take it to stay up for days, and to get total energy highs off of it. you see, for people who don't have ADD, it pretty much acts like speed.....it is a stimulent. but for people with ADD, stimulents have a somewhat reverse response on the body....they slow it down. (this is why caffiene never kept me up or did anything for me). When I took this pill.....it totally opened my eyes to the fact that I may have had ADD. I wasn't hyper or crazy or anything as most kids got on it. I totally chilled out at my desk, was able to focus on ANYTHING. I wrote like 4 huge papers thats night, and totally forgot to look at the clock-in-the-corner of my screen while I was so in tune with what I was doing. Every minute went by I got so much work done, and wrote my best paper that whole school year. this night prompted me to go see a psychologist and see if I had ADD. well sure enough, I was diagnosed with ADD (with like a 80% above the median line or something like that). I was on a couple of drugs that didn't work till they found that adderall worked best for me. Now my grades have improved dramatically and I get so much work done. and when I'm done with my school work, the adderall makes me EVEN more into computers and coding. Not that I'm all about drugs here....in fact I've been against this for quite some time. But...it's really working out and my lifestyle has improved because of it.

in the state of California, if you own a handgun and it's stolen, and lets say that gun is used in a crime BEFORE you get a chance to report it stolen.....you are found guilty and responsible of that crime. My brother just got one the other day in CA and told me this.
bootlegging is harmful? How so? No matter how many Tool svcd bootlegs I collect, nothing, NOTHING will ever compare to the actual show. Nine Inch Nails released a DVD that attempted to immerse you into the experience of seeing them live. All it does it salivate me and my friends, who will pay anything to see them again. I can't find a situation where bootlegging would be harmful.....except maybe with blink182, cus they can't keep a beat live.
a compression like MP3? thats just enough for me NOT to adopt this format. If they use a lossy format, forget it. I like raw PCM used on CD's, or a codec that reconstructs it (like SHN audio). lossy formats suffice for pirating..but do you really want your $18 you shell out going for something that sounds just as good as a mp3 rip of it?
wait...if the last show is in may...then why is DD directing one for april? then wouldn't that be the series finale? or is it just another one thrown in there.
