It looks like there is one hell of a capacitor next to the tube. (as big as the northbridge!!) It could be a 300+ volt cap. I have seen higher voltages in a smaller cap before.
Still, like everyone else is saying, there is no point in *one* tube. But who uses onboard audio anyway?
Thats what they want! Perhaps its some new ploy from M$ to convince you that you are not using Windows and that its time to upgrade *again*.... Or someone (Norton) is trying to hide the flaws in Windows.
Or perhaps that sounded funnier in my head. *sigh*
I use a BBS frequently. My local (county) library has a telnet server setup with their book catalog. Its actually quite cool. With it, I can access my holds lists, change my address, etc.
If any of you live in King County, Washington, you can access it at telnet://infonet.kcls.org. If you dont live in King County, thats ok too. You dont need an account to browse the catalog.
Isn't breaking through my firewall some sort of trespassing? It seems to me that it is at least a violation of my rights. Even if they are a private organisation, can law enforcement use the evidence if it was gotten without a warrant? That doesnt seem right to me.
Second, doesn't that make their software no better than some sort of virus or worm? And if they can hack my firewall, cant they also hack my computes?
That whole part seems like nothing but a scare tactic to me.
Another good reason is that you cant convert DC-DC and still maintain a decent amperage. The power supply in your computer uses multiple coils to attain the desired voltage+amperage levels.

The m505 is not the answer. Geek.com had the folloing story about the m505 having problems with its USB hotsync. Here is the article.
