  3. Memory type? on Next Gen Intel CPUs Move To Yet Another Socket · · Score: -1

    No mention on memory type to be used with he new chip so that might be the reason for a new socket/motherboard upgrade. Either way, this strategy of changing sockets every few years blows hard.

  4. Re:Daytona Racing FTW on Videogame Driving Skills Don't Apply In Real Life · · Score: -1

    I'd like to add that my wife on the other hand has had many driving lessons over the years, has renewed her learners license a few times but still is afraid/nervous of driving on the road. And you guessed it, she didn't play any video games growing up. ...

  5. Daytona Racing FTW on Videogame Driving Skills Don't Apply In Real Life · · Score: -1

    I will have to disagree. I took my first driving lesson at age ~23yrs. Before this, I had driven once with a stick shift and I wouldn't even call that a drive. Within a few minutes into my lesson, my instructor had me driving on a busy road because he thought I was lying to him about the fact that I hadn't driven before. I played Daytona Racing exclusively for years and I credit my basic driving skills to that.

  6. Re:Microsoft Security Essentials on What Free Antivirus Do You Install On Windows? · · Score: -1

    Imagine trying to sell the product in a Muslim country and the product squealing like a pig every time it found something. We had to go through this and had some not so comfortable moments (2006-7).

  7. SpiceWorks anyone? on Best Tools For Network Inventory Management? · · Score: -1

    I thought SpiceWorks was a decent solution, but it hasn't received any love on Slashdot. Is it disliked because of the fact that it is ad supported?

  12. IRC introduced me to WareZ on IRC as a World-Changing Medium · · Score: -1

    so here I was, a irc/comp newb, and asking for someone to zip DUNE and to transfer it to me (i was getting bored in the computer lab ~1995). everyone was ignoring me, and then one guy, basically told me to '^$@#^$ off, we're not a warez channel'. I was like wtf? Warez? what is that .. and the rest is history ..

  15. that's not milk you're getting in your carton on Tux Can Even Milk Cows! · · Score: -1

    but can it tell when a bull comes in the equation? it'll keep pressing the 'I wanna get milked' button, and you won't be getting milk, if you know what I mean. OT - some spin off possibility for the horny bastards out there ,,

  19. Re:why to buy non Tier-1 systems on How to Build a Mainboard: ECS Production Tour · · Score: 0

    I purchased an ECS K7S5A mobo in 2000. I'm still using it. I've done a heatsink mod/wire mod on it. I initially was using it with a Duron 1000. Then a AthlonXP 1800+. It is still going strong. Rock solid. I've had no problems with it. At one point in time, I had 3 of these boards in the house in use. Never had a single problem. I have the original revision, and it is showing its age. No USB2.0 (got a pci card to fix that problem).
