There electronics business is based on mis-information. There cameras are low end retagged Cannon's and there printers are ink chugging HP's, if i'm not mistaken (print 5 test/set-up pages to really get those inks down). However, what makes me really mad is the Plasma screens that they sell. They should have to make it completely clear that those "digital flat panels" are not full Hi Def. but are EDTV. Not that EDTV isn't great, my room mate has one in our apartment and a DVD looks just as good on our ED as it would on an HD. I hate it when people drool over the price, comparing it to a $8,000 Fujitsu Plasmavision of the same size, and think that Gateway is really hooking you up. The only saving grace that I can see is that they will cheapen there brand by selling so low. When it comes to electronics, people are still willing to pay Sony's out of line prices because of better percieved quality. Not that Sony doesn't offer some great stuff, but I find that other brands hold up just fine when compared to Sony's offering.
I work at Circuit City and people come in all the time and ask me for Norton or Mcafee. They say that their isp told them to get it or they can't turn their internet connection back on. Most of the people in my area are Patriot media or Comcast (both cable modem). I know for a fact that Patriot will shut your service off if they detect that you have a virus that could harm the network, or others.
actually, "punt to longhorn" is a quote from the microsoft os team when they encounter a bug in winxp (from an earlier slashdot article). If they can not resolve it easily they just "punt to longhorn" and try to come up with a solution in longhorn instead of patching xp. thanks for your time.
Redundant: because I already posted about keeping the IBM drives cool to keep them happy, but I must say that you are 100% correct in assuming that the heat was making it lose its calibration. I just wish I didn't post so I could use my remaining 4 mod. points on this thread.
P.S. I'm the one with the 10drive array working for a year
I have a 10 drive array (75GXP series) plugging away at about 20% load for a full year now, no failures. I have always had luck with IBM drives when I keep them chilled. If you want to keep your 75gxp drives happy, or any drives for that matter, keep them cool.
Re:Does AMD have anything to compete with Centrino

AMD Back in the Black
·
· Score: 1
AMD would be smart to leave the high-end laptop market to intel and transmeta. AMD still has the sub-$1000 notebook market locked as far as I can see (I work at Circuit City and our best selling laptop is always the $899 after rebates offer). Also, I actually see Transmeta owning that market soon. As a side note, Transmeta stock went from about.70 a few months ago to 3.50 this week (on Astro high density server chips). Truly a company on the move with the resources to take their plans to the next level.
P.S. I'm not saying this to kiss Transmeta's butt because they have Linus on staff (do they even have him anymore?); rather I am doing this because i'm typing this on a Fujitsu Lifebook P-Series with a Crusoe chip and I've been on battery since 8:00am (pushing 2 hours and 40% battery left).
Lik-sang.com sells (along with many other places) a converter that allows you to use your dual shock controllers with your x-box...My friend is a ps2 madden 2004 fiend and he whoops me when he plugs in his dual shock. I'm either going to switch to the dual shock or the logitech wireless controller soon; and this is coming from someone with the new "s" controllers and a couple asian market controllers that are smaller than the standard controller.
I wonder what pulse these buy-able devices give as a signal. Do they give out the priority signal for greater effectiveness? Will we see lights turning green for assholes who got this toy instead of firetrucks? If there is doubt to wether it is illegal or not, there is no question that it is dangerous.
The look of longhorn, with the quick launch stuck to the side, only adds substantial usability on a widescreen. I'm using a widescreen LCD right now and I that it is optimized for such a layout(I dock my messaging program on the right side). Perhaps Microsoft is waiting for the advent of widesreen formats in the desktop market. Will Microsoft pressure the display industry to release widescreens?
I'm using my laptop and my Sony UX50 on a Wi-Fi network as I type this. I get great signal strength and the pages look great on the high resolution screen. I also sync with my laptop through the bluetooth connection on the UX50 and an Ambicon USB bluetooth adapter. I would be wearing a bluetooth wireless headset and talking/surfing through a Bluetooth phone, but Sprint and Verizon do not offer one Come on, people want Bluetooth phones!!! NOT the crappy motorola 230c for Verizon. I want to see a non-gsm t510. Verizon's Express Network is actually faster than T-Mobile 'gsm' in this area. I know this because my best friends have a Kyrocera pda phone for verzion and a Sony P800 for T-Mobile. The Kyrocera on Verizon blows away the "super symbian smart phone" p800.
The only problem that I have found is that the pre-installed Netfront browser can not open new browser windows, so I get error messages every time I am supposed to see a pop-up. Does anyone know how to allow more windows to open? Can Palm multi-task at all? Is there an alternate browser for my Palm that would work better for me? Thanks in advace.
All you need is someone who is a german citizen to apply to bring his car to the United States. The "permit" that the car recieves expires in one year from the date issued. To renew? Simply drive out of the country (Canada, Mexico) and get your update from customs. There are a handful of rich guys here in NJ driving Lamborghini Diablo VT Roadsters and Lotus Elises that are sporting foreign plates and never have a problem.
First of all, why are they putting a vga output on this thing? There are dozens of beautiful fold-out screens on the market that only accept component video. Second, no DVD?!? Last, but not least, 266mhz people! 2-6-6! Also, anyone who says that heat would be a big problem, come feel my Nakamichi CD-700, it runs HOT.
Why not take all of the bands that submit work that aren't chosen for iTunes and throw them up on something like indie.iTunes.com. You would get a wild indie following.
Also, you could allow people who purchased an iPod to download one song for free off of each album on indie.iTunes.com. As it stands now, if you were going to fill a 30GB iPod the legit way, it would cost you about $7,500 (assuming that you only store music on your iPod). IPods would fly off of the shelves, as would some great music that needs a chance!
I think that it is great that they show Tetris in that video because the guy who was responsible for all of the math behind Tetris was getting swindled out of his money by the developers for years. So kids: stick to copying other people's ideas, please!
So we'll have a soft door for LaGuardia Airport? It happens to be in an area we would really like to keep planes out of (NYC). I see a lot of people trying to profit from the whole avation security field, but the chances of a similar attack happenening again is probably pretty low.
I work for Circuit City...Some of our largest revenue sources come from service providers. We are very good at selling wireless (sprint's largest retailer) Direct TV and broadband internet access. We would love to sign people up for Netflix when we sell them their new DVD player.

Not to mention, it is all free. Cut Linux some slack.

going into nyc via the lincoln tunnel your radio gets taken over and they broadcast traffic info.

Nope...The new Samsung "high-end DV/4mp digital still camera" Camcorder takes Sony memorystick pro.

Try to watch one of those HD 1020i feeds on an athlon 1600+ and you will see why we need faster processors.
