I am. The HT consortium needs to get its act together to offer some viable competition to PCI express in terms of cards and peripherals. HT is free to use while mobo and card makers will have to pay liscencing fees for pci express, driving up component prices and possibly adding to tech market stagnation (assuming the tech market doesnt turn around by h2 04, god forbid).
Hellfires are laser guided air to ground missiles with High explosive anti tank (HEAT) warheads. I think you meant to say stingers or perhaps strellas (SA-7s).
You do realize that hard drives are the slowest part of a computer dont you? RAM and the CPU do things in nanoseconds while it still takes milliseconds for hard drives to access things.
Personally I like a well balanced system, and that is why I have a WD1200JB. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link and a computer is as only as fast as its slowest component. The fanboys were most likely drooling about the fact that hard drive thrashing would not take as long as before.
Hell anyone that passed chemistry in high school should know that. I do wonder about the foam though. It might expand when it solidifies do to its own molecular structure that allows for gaps within it (thats why its used for insulation).
*cough* FUD *cough* Fear of war hurts economies. During actual war times the economy picks back up. World War 2 is what got America out of the depression (the war was the final step, not the only reason). America's arms deals with the allies helped create jobs and so did the massive mobilization and temporary nationalization of many companies to enable a war time economy.
What are they going to do, get in a big machine that causes a human wave to be formed? Come on, the chinese were still using horse calvary as late as the 80s.
If the kid blows his own head off its his own damn fault (assuming the parents discussed the merits of firearms usage, safety, and respect). If the kid blows his own brains out after learning that he did not deserve to live anyway and the gene pool is better off with out him. "Oh no 140 children will die from firearms accidents!" Get over it thousands of children starve to death each year in 3rd world countries and I dont see you doing anything about it you hypocrites. A firearm is merely a tool. It can be used for good or for evil, that depends entirely on the user. Any power tool can become a weapon. When do you suggest we implement a "Smart Power Tool" law so power tools will only function in the hands of their owners? The entire smart weapon is assinine just due to the fact that the firearm should be available to the entire family in a home defense situation. If the burglar breaks in and ties up the dad, and rapes the mom the child, if he has been trained on how to use the firearm safely (and was physically able to use the weapon, due to weight and recoil concerns), should be able to defend the family with that firearm if such a scenario were come to pass.
I thought via already owned at least a large portion of S3, and via is a large company and a competitor to NVIDIA in certain market segments. I really doubt that NVIDIA could aquire S3 anytime soon. Of course I dont have any references off of the top of my head my entire post only applies if my memory hasnt been corrupted. Feel free to flame away... Im too tired to care.
I dont think it would be wise to entirely cut our military spending. We are in a treaty organization that requires at least 2 percent of GDP to go towards military spending. Plus the Polar Bears might attack the US if there was no military to deter them. You dont want your nation to be ruled by Polar Bears, do you?

I think that has something to do with the vast difference in GDP. Maybe the treaty signed ending World War 2 also contributes in its own special way...
How is that off topic? Hes asking about performance under Extreme loads. That is if hes being serious. If hes not then we shall crucify him!
I wonder what this will do to my karma...

Its kind of hard to put Germany ahead of the US in terms of technology, especially with all of those pesky multinational corporations that exist in both nations similtaniously(sp?). I wonder if I can think of any... Hmm. Off the top of my head I can think of Siemens, AMD, and Intel. Both Germany and the US have a DRAM manufacturer (Infineon and Micron). I do have to say that the US has superior military technology though...

Who modded this poor bastard down? He actually has a good point.

poor performance in bed of course....
I beg to differ. I actually think the outlaw star was the best giant robot. Sure it didnt have legs, but all the other elements were there.
There is not even a field there now. Problem solved.

Amd said that the clawhammers would be released in q3 2003 some time ago. Last time I checked September was Q3...
Im still waiting for that... TFC is starting to get old. Its the halflife engine for god sakes.
Everyone knows that abortions, along with oxygen, water, and artificial colorings, cause cancer.

well I think it might be if the damn thing is so big and keeps growing... You dont want to rip a woman in half do you?
Its funny in a dry, yet twisted sort of way. Twisted because it may turn out to be true...
