  1. Re:Who Won on GF FX 5900 Ultra vs. ATi Radeon 9800 Pro · · Score: 1

    Well... I went ahead and clicked through all the pages, through all the benchmarks and pictures... and they deemed the 9800 the winner.

    Dude, that guy in the article, Justin, didn't do anything while she was getting off on Rez.

  3. Re:I have one on Review: QCast Tuner for PS2 · · Score: 1

    Ah, I was under the impression it was PS2 -> 802.11b Network Adapter -> Wireless Hub/Switch (LAN) -> Router -> Internet.

    I was hoping that was your setup so I could put my PS2 anywhere in the house that's near a TV :)

    Thanks for the info though. I want to give Qcast a try.

  4. Re:I have one on Review: QCast Tuner for PS2 · · Score: 1

    I run mine over 80211b and it works fine.

    I'm confused. I know it requires the PS2 network adapter. Is there an 802.11b version of that? Or are you using a USB 802.11b? I was just reading a few other posts where the Qcast Tuner doesn't support non-Sony USB adapter.

    So could you please explain your setup? :)

    Someone should make a graphical nodemap of what companies own what other companies.

    Not quite a graphical nodemap, but if you don't mind clicking on each of the parent companies to view who/what they own, it does the job.

    I thought about the same thing. But I also came to realize "pi" took forever, too.

    So, instead, I tried "e". Still takes forever.

    Learn to spell, mormon!!!

    I had the same thought... y'know, being Slashdot and all.

    I thought he intended to write the topic as "It's not hard to write a grammar emulator."

    I guess I'm just so used to seeing spelling and grammar errors I think they mean something else :)

  12. Re:Yet another reason ... on nVidia Unified Drivers Including Linux/FreeBSD · · Score: 1

    If you buy quality nVidia boards from ASUS, or Visiontek (now defunct) you will be sure to have quality parts in them.

    Also add Leadtek to the list starting with their WinFastTi500. I have their Ti200 (the 128MB with hardware monitoring) card, and to my eyes, they match my Matrox Marvel G400.

  14. Re:Firewall em on FTC Sues Six in Spam E-Mail Round-Up · · Score: 1

    That's pretty neat. I'm guessing this is for Linux's IPTables...

    I was wondering if anyone out there using IPF (on *BSD) would know how to implement this blocking scheme. Any ideas?

    I normally use my AOL coasters for that.

  18. Re:another similar program on Folding@Home Client's Performance Impact Measured · · Score: 1

    Thanks for the stereotype, but I'm not one of those people who complain about BSOD and NT/2k. I didn't say anything about my Win2k server being unstable.

    I own the server, and I felt like running some program that will take up my idle time. (It really doesn't do much except host my email.)

  19. Re:another similar program on Folding@Home Client's Performance Impact Measured · · Score: 1

    That's pretty neat.

    But the problem (for me) with UD is the lack of *nix support. I once used them about a year ago when I used Windows 2k as my server... and my servers usually just idle not doing anything (except host a small mail server) so I ran UD.

    Now I moved everything to FreeBSD. I was at least able to run Folding@Home (but now I have my own set of problems)

    When I last ran UD, I remember hearing people asking for *nix support, but now checking out their website I can't find any :(

  20. Re:It Would Be Nice If... on Folding@Home Client's Performance Impact Measured · · Score: 1

    I'm currently having the same problem running the Linux client on my FreeBSD machines (through the Linux emulator of course).

    It does the work, but it's having problems retrieving or uploading the results. It worked earlier this month, now I have no idea why it's not working anymore. So I've taken them down. I thought it was just a FreeBSD thing.

    Anyone else having these problems?

    do have to say that a blue LED mouse looks about 10X cooler than a red one.

    Does that mean blue is the new black?
