I can tolerate PayPal but flip eBay the bird. Much easier to trade on the for sale / for trade forum sections of sites such as Anandtech, ArsTechnica and HardOCP coupled with feedback sites like Heatware and Beerology. Whenever possible, I steer payers towards using Google Checkout instead - was free of fees until Jan and even now its a good bit lower than PayPal.
I always keep a clean snapshot of the OS drive/partition using something like TrueImage 11. This gets updated with every month or two.
This is essentially a version of "nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure". Hasn't failed me yet!
Hell, even critical tools in designing chips can be parallelized - floorplaning as well as place-and-route.
In both these cases though, you run into the problem of affecting solution quality if you don't split up the problem carefully. I've worked a little on a non-stochastic floorplanner using joint shape curves with min-cut parttioning as well as with the people behind FastPlace and FLUTE, and this is definitely an issue.
I don't see a problem with hooking up modern PCs to TVs, especially with the newer line of displays (VGA/DVI/HDMI/component/S-vid/more inputs than you can shake your remote at). You don't need a MAC to do this easily, though I will concede that it is tricky to hook up older vid cards to SDTVs (overscan/underscan and all that jazz).
As far as essentially multicasting by satellite, how about next gen multicasting capable optical network architectures like Light Trails?
That's not the half of it;) I got two controllers about 2-3 months back when they were ~$50 each. Whiteboxed and included 8 SATA cables.
I've got one paired with an ABIT AB9 Pro (to get 16 total SATA ports) and another with an ASUS P5B Plus, both generally with Hitachi 1TB and Seagate 750GB drives attached.
SuperMicro AOC-SAT-MV2 with the BIOS yanked out. Cheap and DAMN effective, unlike the crappy Silicon Image controller cards that shit bricks when a >= 750GB drive is plugged in (like the OP, also bought 3x 4-port controllers, got burned)
Yeah but in the case of fibers, it's not their flexibility that's the problem, its the excitation of radiation modes (ie. loss) if your bend radius is too small;)
How f*cking hard is it to understand? I just to [u]contribute to the local economy[/u]!!!
Another thing to consider : My research is being funded by the NSF. Who funds them?;)

Can you actually watch anything when the 1,000lbs whale in front of you decides to lean ALL the way back in cattle class :|

My E6600 @ 3.6GHz begs to differ ;) So do all the folks running E8xxx chips at 4GHz+
I think you got it wrong. I'm no snob but maybe some of the general populace should have their "tubes" tied ;)

Oops, getting a bit dyslexic :P
It should be the AOC-SAT2-MV8 : http://www.supermicro.com/products/accessories/addon/AOC-SAT2-MV8.cfm

That was an old setup with mostly 250GB IDE HDDs
"He has multiple personalities... ALL Lincoln"
"I was born in 200 log cabins"
Of course not, how could any non-MS tech outshaft/outbone it? :)
For crying out loud, the man did not inhale ;)
Well, this is /. so forget the err... hookers?
:P
Here's my mancard
Did you know Jesus and Moses used guns to conquer the Romans?
Fscking bring back Chris Roberts already...
I vote to give Jerry Yang /. uid #1 :P
If you think that's bad, go read Jackson's EM book. Randomly switching from cgs to SI units will give you a headache right quick :)
Lorentz force. It is an absolute b*tch in high field magnets.

It bloody figures that SkyNet spawned from the evil **AA entities :P

Don't worry, I'm just getting out of grad school and I still have a couple of Micropolis drives running here :)
Overclock that C2D and watch it utterly trounce the X2 ;)
