You paid too much - Take a look at these - http://www.microcenter.com/specials/promotions/AMDbundlePROMO.html
I build machine in my spare time and sell on craigslist and people wonder how come you sell a quad core for 350 with 8 GB and 1 TB hard drive. I make an average of $50 per sale.
you should be hanged for just making that reference to 2g1c. I didn't knew what that was and now got to clean up the puke after watching just 10 seconds.
Damn you - and those making that 2g1c clip!!
Really you want a default null tld so Slashdot.org would just be slashdot. I don't care where a site is based, whether it's for profit or not. I want to just type:
slashdot
ubuntuforums
bbc
etc and not try and guess/remember whether they're:.com.net.org.co.uk.org.uk
So? I got a i7 a year back from Dell for 500$; but you get what you pay for. That Dell was powered by a 300w PS - enough to blow out after a 6hr prime burn in. Made more money selling the spares on fleabay then returning:)
Not if you plan and time it correctly. During the recent Christmas holiday I planned to buy a decent LCD TV - found a good one at good price at BB; went to Kroger got a bunch of gift cards ~ equal to the value of the TV and got 10% return on the purchase I made at kroger (See http://supermarketnews.com/news/kroger_gift_1123/) And 3% cash back from my credit card.
I attest to this experience; recently I helped reinstalled windows xp home on an old smoker lady's desktop and the nicotine/tar smell lingered in my home for more than a week after I had the machine running for less than 3 hours.
Thats why you have logical redundancies. I work for a fortune 10 company and this is a standard practice for all mission critical applications. The application has be to geographically redundant with install base at least at 3 data centers (ATL,SEA and DLS). Different SAN technology at each DC. All Oracle databases have 2 physical dataguard configuration with 4 hours and 8 hours latency (to guard against user errors) and all J2EE apps hard configured to switch connections from one db to the other almost on the fly or with a reboot. Some really really critical databases have all this and transaction duplication via Goldengate to remote databases to off load reporting queries. We have had issues where SAs screwed up allocating LUNs and ended up f*cking up the file systems but we recovered in every scenario even a 30 TB DB restore over 2 days.
Its amazing a consumer serving company like T-Mobile risked itself by hosting their application on Microsoft platform;. Furthermore where is the DR in all this? Who the F*ck in the right mind fiddle something on SAN without confirming a full backup of all applications/databases? It appears that Hitachi and Microsoft are at fault here (if SAN maintenance is the root cause of this failure) but T-Mobile is the fool allowing these companies to ruin their data. Not only there won't be any consequences because of this issue to MS or Hitachi - T-Mobile will be pouring in more money to fly in the MS and Hitachi consultants.
I don't think so (personal opinion here). I bought a new computer 2 months ago that had Vista preinstalled after using XP since it came out. So far for me Vista is every bit as stable as XP.
People will download Windows 7 and they will either like it or they won't. If it sucks, it doesn't matter what people are using at the time, they won't switch. And if people are THAT desperate to get away from Vista, they can just go back to XP (something that I thought I would want to do when faced with buying a machine with Vista preinstalled).
You need to upgrade your wife to wife 2.0 or something.
Do you think this will mean jobs in India and China will get outsourced to a broke white boy like me now?
Your burger flipping skills are of no use; Indians generally are vegetarians and those who eat meat prefer chicken and/or lamb. Off course you could learn to cook chat items and open your own dhela on chowpati.
Why not make use of the Athlon/Sempron machine lying idle in your basement (or your existing machine) by installing http://www.gnump3d.org/? I am a using it since its 1.X version and its amazing.
So? Don't sign it. It is exactly this kind of mentality that has brought down the housing market. I am not denying that there was mortgage broker/financing fraud involved in the current housing market crisis - but majority of them are people failing to understand the loan terms and/or believing that the market always goes up and they will find a bigger sucker to sell the house at an inflated price.
Prime example of Darwin's theory. Family has only two options - learn from this and never sign anything without knowing what they are signing or get decimated financially by recklessly signing contracts that they cannot honor.
News items like these are brought into limelight to create unwarranted sympathy to this family and ultimately get ATT reduce the bill.
Remember Walmart?
If you are interested in deals with MIR, stay away from ZZF. They are in bed with the companies sponsoring MIR and don't help you a wee bit to get your MIR money back. I have had better luck with frys.com.
In my opinion consider buying locally from reputed dealers - not only will you help your own county/state with tax revenues; returns/exchanges are a breeze and almost cost to nothing (except for the gas money off course). I have frys electronics locally ( 3 miles) and had to return a CPU motherboard combo three times just because they came up with a better deal every week for the past three weeks, went with a AMD LE combo, replaced it with a Intel E7200, which was later replaced last week for a AMD 9750 Quad core setup for under 145 USD online deals can't beat that.
Dude - this is pure capitalism at work. Try before your buy. If a H1B candidate is good enough we dole out the green card application. So what is the problem? In fact, H1B program is more profitable to everyone involved (Except off course those who complain about it). The guest worker gets better salary. The employing company gets an above average candidate (assuming someone throughly interviewed the candidate before H1B sponsorship) - The government gets to collect taxes for Medicare/social security which they don't have to worry about repaying as the candidate is "guest worker" and is assumed to go back home after 6 years. If he stays back on green card the government gets to collect taxes life long and pay nothing as nothing will be left to pay when the green card holder retires. And one of the best reasons - The job stays in US - all the money rolls back into the US economy which is a good thing. Oh.!! and before someone complains about a citizen being denied the job opportunity - please ask him/her check the DOL website and local newspaper for the job posting, they are there before anyone is sponsored for H1B.

Why a box? Just get a DD-WRT or something similar (that gives bandwidth usage) capable router for ~20$ and you are good to go.

Why not just fly out and build a colony on Uranus?
