Did you have any problems with overscan with the Radeon? I have a 60" Mitsubishi DLP and the Zotac MAG that I tried out with the nVidia ION overscanned by 3%, and by manually tweaking the resolution it insisted on leaving a black bar about 1" wide on the right side of the screen. It was either that, or I couldn't see the taskbar.
I might have considered the iPhone if it were on any other network. It was this lone limiting factor that kept me from putting down the extra coin. I'd make the wiretapping argument, but Verizon is equally as guilty.
I was hired at my company based on nothing but an internship and my personal experience. They also gave me a pop quiz on site to make sure I had a clue.
Those pieces of paper don't mean anything if you can't figure problems out fast, and my IT team knows that. Video game companies tend to not be your average workplace, however.
I'm going to second FOG. We use it here at a small business (about 270 employees) for setting up new hires' machines. Build up an install image, sysprep, and upload it to the FOG server. We just boot new machines up with PXE, answer a few basic questions (mainly which image to use, and what the image's OS is) and it takes care of the rest.
How did miranda make it into the tags? I'm in IT at a company of about 270 people, and one single Miranda client is enough to bog down the server thanks to malformed data that it sends.
So I actually went out and bought this. This is the first PC game I've bought since Guild Wars...
and I can't play it. My legit copy refuses to believe I'm online in order to "verify ownership."
To top it all off, it's now been over 36 hours since I contacted their support, still with no answer.
If they want people to put up with their shit, they better at least suck up to us. This will be the last EA game I ever purchase, which is saying something because I work for a company that releases games under EA. At least our QA team actually lives up to their name.
The strum bar is a lot smoother on the new controllers, and the buttons are less noisy. Oh, and last I checked, an enormous chunk of the old wireless controllers lying around the offices are wireless.
Honestly, though. A friend of a coworker is hardly the most reliable source. This doesn't seem to be a widespread problem, seeing as the only mention of it thus far is a single thread with no replies on a message board.
Hamsters are nocturnal and primarily found in the desert, which gets quite cold at night. By all rights, shouldn't they be more active come wintertime?
... entire problem with the W95.CIH (Bloodhound/Chernobyl) virus for Win 95/98/ME users back in the day, where doing an AV scan would infect every accessed.exe? Why hasn't a safer method of scanning been brought about yet, despite obvious major threats like CIH once was?
Works great for surplus population control, too, since everyone in the surrounding area will be too blind and sterile to copulate... properly. Damned if I won't try my hardest, though.
after email, the worst protocol in the world. I'd rather have no future.
Email's not so bad, once you spend a solid day setting up filters for a new acct, the rest of the week fine-tuning the filters, then finally giving up because it all comes through anyway. Repeat at new location.
As for having no future, I'll gladly trade with you.

It's pretty easy when you take the liberty of resizing your paddle and go make a sandwich :)

... and we've had very few problems (the Miranda client gave us a hard time, but we just stopped allowing people to use it).
It's not a Rock Band game. It's its own game. Also, it won't have the entire catalog - the rumor going around is that it's only 45 songs.

But what do I know? I only work there.
It's used quite often if you're familiar with VMWare, as you use the right-side keys to ctrl+alt+del in Windows VMs.
... you're getting a defribulator!

The Guide entries were animated... and they took up a considerable part of some of the episodes.
This one also works. I find it easier to remember, since that's the word that always comes to mind when I see that color scheme.

It's a good thing you didn't bother counting the dashes first. Otherwise you would've looked silly.
Considering Debian stable, last I checked, still has the 2.2 kernel as default, I'd say you have at least a ten year wait.
I didn't realize working a paper and pen was so difficult. I mean, have we ever had a problem with that before?
*cough*
