Every think of turning down the heat? I've got various systems in a storage closet, another Athlon system just outside it, and it's a very average 70 degrees in there. Basically the same temp as the rest of the house.
"turning down the heat", is that a BIOS setting?
Or should there be a jumper on the motherboard?

Then you write: Actually, what you discribe is actually a bit of a credit for MS.
Windows 1..., MS C++, DOS, Notepad etc all started off pretty bad, but it was their persistance that made it all work.
MS has the luxury of releasing something that doesn't quite work properly and just working at it till it has it right.
Do you know how to COMPREHEND what you read?
Microsoft put out crap products and they should be congratulated for their persistence?
so he no longer has to answer "yes" to the job application question "Have you ever been convicted of a felony?" That's a real multipler for success when seeking jobs in the future.
Unless you are trying to get a job with the Russian Mafia.
I gave up on "audiophile" years ago - I just can't hear it... just like I can't see those stupid pictures in the wierd drawings that are supposed to pop out in 3D
wrong. two drives make for raid 1. Unless you are willing to risk losing 600 GB on a raid 0. Something like raid 53 is probably what most would look for.
NOT if you are merely using them as a scratch drive to capture video to.
I have two 80GB drives set up as Raid-0 to do exactly this.

I'd equate Gentoo to sending away for a kit, and then making your own bullets.

Linus Torvalds, the inventor of the Linux operating system, who was dressed in his customary T-shirt and sandals.
...Just like Jesus!
I am not misguided. Merely hopeful.
AND Backbenchers are the ones THAT ARE MORE LIKELY to NOT tow the party line.
I just wrote to my local MP voicing my objection to this. He is a member
of the current government, albeit a mere backbencher at the moment.
Here is hoping he doesn't tow the party line should they choose to tow
the corporate American line.
Your country is now a fascist dictatorship, its just

You're a complete twonk.
Windows ME wasn't made in 1996. Unless..... Oh my! You must be from the future! So what is longhorn like, future boy?
Obviously complete shite, or else he wouldn't be still using WinME.
Go Ricki!
Not only is Gator spyware, but look at the guys that run the show.
It appears they have a rule "either wear glasses, or grow a moustache".
I also note that their site doesn't have a Gator pop-up window.

Well SUCK IT UP BayStar! you're about to get SCO's arse handed to you by IBM.
I believe you mean "English" spellings for everything, as apposed to "American" spellings for everthing.

Ian Sommerville is probably English. Give him a call and find out.
I guess we British students should stop moaning so much.
No, you've still got shithouse weather.
I'm not here to make personal sex bots or anything.
Why the hell not?
If you can also teach it to cook, clean, wash and iron, I'll take two.
Of course some bastard will probably write a "Nag" virus, and I'll be back to square one.
Govt: MS, you are not giving users a choice here.
MS: "But your honor, we are giving users a choice. They can use IE to interface with the ICU life support system or just let their patients die."
Microsoft: How would you like to die, today?
That's the first poll Dubya's ever won.
Why should Joe Schmoe, who is sharing a bunch of Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit MP3s, spend time in PRISON for doing so?
For crimes against music!
Duh!
I think the real problem here is that a temporary restriction in the supply of alcohol is labeled as a 'crisis'
It happened in Mississippi.
God, printing 10k ebooks?
...that's what they're there for. ;-)
Just do what I do, get into work early and use the company's paper and toner.
Yeah, I got tricked by the headline too.

Firefly wasn't THAT good though, they couldn't even afford the sound effects to make the
spaceships sound like spaceships.
Whedon really cheaped-out after Buffy.

A disk writing at over 600MB / sec.. Seems unlikely.
Yes, and we'll only ever need 640MB of RAM, too.
