no you are correct it is not the serial ata spec but the IDE spec. Even a dual channel ide card can actually only write to a single channel at any time. I am trying to find the place where I read this all detailed out. The biggest advantage of the new raid cards is the JBOD mode. How many home users really need mirroring or 1+0/0+1 raid ?

serial ata is nice, I've got a promise card with 4 channels and serial ata adaptors. While it looks great it has the same issue any other IDE controller has, only single channel access at any one time so it is just a shell game. Though the serial ata cables are great, they are even better than round ide:)
back to wholesale for aqpplication use. The new life Linux has breathed into them is awesome. The VM code was just to expensive. The bottom line in batch is still MVS as well. CICS, and IMS are huge still as well. The mainframe is not going anywhere, you just don't hear about it because it doesn't blue screen, and only needs reboots to update the IOCDS, and with dynamic LPAR's you can even avoid that issue to a degree.
which is why I ASKED if the person honestly thought that OGG was twice as good ?? I really don't care on my end which format I use, I just want the closest to true sound. If an OGG track was actually as good as an MP3 of twice the bit rate it would be time to begin re-ripping things to Ogg Vorbis. As for space vs quality that is ALWAYS going to be an issue...
are you actually trying to say that a 128 kbps Ogg sounds as good as a 256 kbps mp3 ? On my work PC I can't tell the bloody difference but at home a 128 kbps mp3 sounds poor and hollow. Granted the space back is nice but I'd rather keep my MP3's at 320 kbps and buy another drive to store them.
of course if you count the cost of the satelites lost due to failed insertion, things get a wee bit more expensive. What was the bottom line on the 1K loss ? does anyone have a figure or a link ?
Lets face it a corporation would sell anything to anyone. IBM sold to Nazi germany, Hell chevron would have sold them the needed gas for the ovens if they could have. A corporation has NO MORALS, it is up to the citizens and the government to ensure that they toe the line. To expect anything else from an entity whose sole purpose is to make money is foolish is the extreme. The downfall here in the US is that the corp's now own a good part of the government in the way of venal, short-sighted politicians.
LOL it was POT, this guy will be too relaxed to bother to even load the damn things. If he'd had a 1/4 oz of Crank then a gun battle would have ensued. The US media has become so absorbed in the War on Terrorism that they'd have you believe that ANY quantity of bud in the US actually comes from a terrorist country. Give me a bloody break, I guess that means Canada is a snowy terorist paradise, and the poor people in Humboldt County must all be raving lunatics.
true, and good idea, I had not thought about the negative shedding impact, all in all you are probably right about the learn at your own expense factor.
We should just take all the nay-sayers and throw them off the edge of the earth. The Flat Earth Society would gladly provide help. They are as anxious as we are to get rid of the crackpots:)
and we can see how much effort Disney put into marketing PM. Which was awesome btw... The lead balloon in this equation is Disney, why do they have to control distribution, especially when they won't expend very much effort ?
why do they need Disney ??? Order them online and get a region mod'd player and watch what you want. When the PRODUCING company sees a profit to be made they will start translating them. Your way gets SOME to the market, the one that the MORONS at Disney think will work, but also ensures that they get the Mouses' (ehhh bad humor sorry) share of the profit.
made by or marketed by, Disney is going to eat up ANY profits and screw the actual artists by complaining that the marketing costs ate up any profit and that they are actually owed money but the artists can turn over the rights to the film in return for getting let out of a bad deal....
2nd that, the best thing for the US would be for these morons to form a club and charge for entrance. The rest of us could go seek less biased news and actually find out how F'd up the US government is for a change....
I hope this is a financial loss for them and Mickey has to go back to the bread line where the stolen rat started. Has disney EVER actually created somthing from scratch or is EVERY Disney 'creation' in fact derived from someone elses work then copyrighted and 0wned forever. I am not old enought to speak for when Walt was around but Disney has been nothing exciting as long as I can remember.
I use the calander and contacts function all day long. I keep a excel spreadsheet of my lab Sync'd with every bloody piece of info about 160 servers and the environments they support, as well as regularly use the terminal services client to access the machines in the rack with out having to go find a monitor and sit down, not to mention Tiger Woods Golf:)
AMD's can't hold a cabdle to the new P4's with a decent chipset. I just don't see where they are going to survive ? Their chips can't compete in the imbeded market, to much energy use. Their chips can't compete in the Server market, to SLOW and not enough memory addressable. Their chips apparently can't compete in the desktop market either...I think it is time to drop the last few shares of AMD I've got left....This is really bad news for the consumer though...
then if you are not willing to move you just have to take what they hand out to you...that seems fairly simple as well. Not that you don't have a VERY VALID point, but the likelyhood of that happening, is less than and you and I both being struck by lightning at the same time we are pulling winning lottery numbers in 2 different places at one time....

I agree, given that it was intro I am going to give it another try as well but unless it REALLY picks up.....

Well cast me up in the light, I always thought Belial was next to Dispater, who was next to Asmodeus....Things get sooo confusing :)
woot you get bonus props for good memory and good taste :)
anyone find a cost on the 1k sat ? Surely it was ensured, but by whom and for how much.
LOL

easy enough to fix...just remove any moderations on an edited topic, just like they retroactively remove any moderations on a topic you post in.

ITN or BBC offer a much better source...

that is easy enough to do...just edit your host file and redirect the ad servers to 127.0.0.1
:)
:)
A host file is very easy to find...check
www.kazaa-lite.com
The author of KL keeps a VERY comprehensive host file, I just see a custom broken link pic these days which I rotate
As for not letting my and my popup ad filter in, so what, I will go spend my money else where
