Its worth it for gaming modern games, but its not gona get you typing word any faster...
I got my 2500+ over 6 months ago, OC'd it to the speed of a 3200+ and never looked back. If your getting a new system, go for 1Gb ram, makes a diff.
Generaly when upgrading:
Gaming PC * Graphics card first, then CPU+Ram, then monitor;)
Word/Browser PC * If its >1Ghz don't bother;), for speed up try linux, or if your not that wild try win2k for a preformance boost;P
Server * If you do hard number crunching or heavly loading stuff, then try 64bit, but only if there is support for your app, as for gaming; its gona happen, just not yet, you won't get your bang for buck, but you will win any 'my d*cks bigger than yours':)
I knew there was something to mu hunch, I wonder if XP will be as stable when it reaches SP4?
On another note, its obvous that if you fill a windowz box with crap its more likly to crap out than if you did a pure MS install with only basics, its not rocket science people!
* The AP's and the upstream link are the properly of the residents. * The AP does not connect to the university network. * The AP does not violate the ISP's contact. * The apartment residents are legal tenants.
From the tenancy point of view, the FCC has ruled that landlords can not restrict the use of AP's by the tenant as long as it complies with the law. This applies even if the university is the landlord.
The university can only restrict the use of AP's if the AP is illegally on the university properly (note that if the land is rented the university has no say, even if it's stated in the tenancy contact as the FCC has ruled this void) or the AP is connected to the university network (this would imply the first case).
The only argument that the university has is that the tenants AP's are causing intentional jamming to the existing network. This would be a very thin argument as both the Universities as well as the tenants AP's work as intended. There is no intentional attempt to jam the universities AP's as a service is provided, it's just not the universities one.
Basically the University is attempting to ban the tenants AP's because its users are switching to the tenants AP's when they get a stronger signal from them. Looking at it from a legal point of view the tenants could cite unauthorized use of their AP if they had taken steps to prevent this use. Technically this could be resolved by placing AP's on the outside of the building (if the university is the landlord) or placing AP's a close as legally possible to the building.
Note that if the university attempts to enforce this is its regulations, this would be a case of indirection and again the FCC ruling would supersede it as the regulations are a contact between the students and the university.

As for fileplanet, what an incoherent pice of dribble, the thing doesn't even work properly half the time;P. As for timestamped url's for downloads, so much for technological progress like download managers, 1.4Gb file single stream without restart capability, snigger...
Wow, very well writen, this beats the scrips of all the movies released this year hands down:).
I feel sorry for HardHead, if I had been Nightfreeze I would have given him all the isk's rather than give them to any old n00b, but then again I probably could not have gone through with it either.
Ultimatly Nightfreeze encountered the biggest problem with RPG's, once you beat the system there is nothing left for you. You feel like a hollow shell, don't want to play it any more cause its pointless, you beat it but you have nothing else. It's a very deep low after the high of just having 0wned the system.
A freind of mine had a hell of a day getting a motherboard working again and eventually gave up and just got a new one, as for the fate of the dead mb? It was time to get revenge for the hours of frustration, well out came the trusted samari sword and it was time for some Kung-Fo stylez. Needless to say the result was some very exhausted nerds and a not so damaged mb. This was a bad ass sucker. So some home made napam was called for, needless to say the capacitors popped quite nicely.
Sounds like they are looking to see who is willing to stick around and be happy to get screwed over and let the rest quit which is great for the bottom line. Basically it's a cheap ass way of making everyone take a pay cut.
You have two options, stick to your guns and resignat yourself to going nowhere or start looking elsewhere. Looks like its time to dust off your CV and start looking for better opportunities than this one.
His possition sounds different to yours, the company sounds like its going downhill and is more likely to fire your ass than give you a promotion. If you have been with a company for a long time and are one of its 'founding' members you will always be valued. This does not sound the case for him.
My personal attitide is that unless I have a stake in the company, I'm not gona put in the extra effort, I've seen too many people get screewed over that way.
A freind and I team up, he goes french and I go german, makes for a kick ass team, he is a weaker player so I end up kicking most of the other civs asses while he tryes to save his skin. Makes for an interesting tag team.
Now as for my gf, I still don't know how she's gona fit into the picture (just getting her hooked, got her onto Q3 and now for Civ3), maybe she'll be the one using mutual protection packs to rais hell;).
Fast games do experience a need for resources, especially when it to the modern age, tanks vs calvalry, umm...
But good point on the needing a continous design.
One thing I always felt was lacking was the ability to 'suck up' to the other civs. ie. give em stuff and they will be more freindly and go into a military aliance more easily with u. It seemed like the only was for this was not to piss them off in the first instance.
Civ3 had good diplomatic concepts, now they just need to fleshed out.
As for polution, no one wants to play like George Bush, and if you do thats what Govoners and Fast Building option is for, with that set you can just go to war for the entier game.

This is best refactoring IDE out there. Nuf said.
And I must concure, VS is about as functional as textpad, dono what the fuss is about, no clue for the clueless.
Ohh yeah, try IDEA!
http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/
Still not convinced?
http://home.iprimus.com.au/trinexus/idea.html
They thought that their ciustomers wern't in enought pain all ready?
:P
I smell a conspiracy, maybe its a favor getting returned for the AOL link on every desktop
But you know what, the elections will probably be bushshit too! :)
Spread the word!
The irony is of course that the US kept modifying the Kyoto Protocol, and once it was nicely messed up decided that it was not agreable. The reality is that it will effect the powers that be's investment portfolios.
You were expecting word to go faster....?!
:P
ohhh wait do I hear...
But it didn't speed the interweb.
Its worth it for gaming modern games, but its not gona get you typing word any faster...
;)
;), for speed up try linux, or if your not that wild try win2k for a preformance boost ;P

RTFA, or may be more apropriate WTFV :)
That would be because it's not a leaching network. You get back what you put in, if you want to leech your not welcome here.
The clients have been designed for fairness and _sharing_ rather than grab as much as you can and then go offline.
DC on the other hand is this mentality, you can keep your leaching corrupt network.
Doom3 had copy protection?! Never noticed, worked fine on CloneCD with the patch provided :P.
And people ask me why I still use win2k!
I knew there was something to mu hunch, I wonder if XP will be as stable when it reaches SP4?

Have you ever been there/meet them? Be afraid, be very afraid.
How about umm... lets see... the rest of the world?!
Ohh yeah and whats that saying? "Guns don't kill people, people kill _OTHER_ people", missing something?
Maybe its just the USA, maybe they should be removed form the world for being a threat to world security... or not...
And that is why I didn't download the file and since I have no idea what the game is like I'll never be enticed to go out and buy it.
Release on shit web sites like that and alienate your customers, sound business model to me.

So now they can fix the Computers they break? I guess that will be included as a nother service tax of a few hundred dollars.
:P
Does it include free monitring of drive contents for the ISA/FBI asswell?
