  • You can do video extraction from directivo's. It would definitely give you better quality/lower filesize. I bought the usb Network adapter, but haven't gotten around to hacking it. I'd go for an external drive, many are faster and support more …

  • I have to say they're pretty even. The differences are often personal preference. Quote: Originally posted by ast3r3x It isn't very crash prone...but it is virus, worm, and spyware prone. Windows has spyware because everybody uses it. The…

  • For several months most Pentiums were binning at 90Mhz, but 75Mhz was the sweet spot in sales. Hence, the nice boost to those who knew how to overclock.

  • If the army's servers are still as crappy as they've been for the last year, not too many windows users will have a leg-up.

  • Quote: Originally posted by torifile I've had varying levels of success with BT. With popular files, it can get real fast. But it takes some time to ramp up to that speed. With other files, it's pathetic. I still really like the concept of BT and…

  • I know a lot of mac/linux/bsd/etc. users have fun crowing about microsoft bugs everytime one is discovered, but I can't say that I have too many problems. My windows machine runs Win2k, IE & outlook. I've been on the 'net since the early 90's …
    in You think this type of stuff ever gets old for them? (new virus) Comment by xmoger October 2003
  • It's momentum. For a lot of companies it's probably cheaper to drop $100-200k on a couple dozen machines, than to port their custom app(s), and migrate their users. Places that use Sun anyway probably don't have a lot of devices attached using USB…

  • Quote: Originally posted by Whisper The 9800 Pro lets you run your monitor in portrait mode instead of landscape mode. AFAIK, this feature is exclusive to the 9800 Pro (and Macs). It's great for reading long documents I haven't used ATI in a …

  • Blue & white LEDs are ~10 times as expensive as red LEDs too. The CCD sensor may be more sensitive to red light, possibly.

  • Quote: Originally posted by AngryAngel I also see no reason for an intermediate update. 12 months from June puts it 9 months after the 2GHz ships, and 9 months is not too long for a product update cycle- especially for a rev. A product. IF the…

  • Maybe if they had listened to Apples marketing dept, they could have bought a G4 cube for their supercomputing needs and saved millions.

  • Businesses don't like upgrading more than every few years, so there's an incentive to slow upgrade cycles. We'll see if Microsoft finds OSX a threat in the coming years. Quote: Originally posted by Yevgeny So MS gives massive updates every 2-…
