  • Conspicuous consumption at its finest.
  • Here's an easy one: What's larger than the universe, the dead eat it, and if the living eat it, they die?

  • Quote: Originally posted by trumptman Now as for the finals. Yes the Lakers lost, but of course they had a key injury. I hope they will pull it together and be back nice and strong next year. Nick Doubtful. People are starting to call it t…

  • Hey chris_v that's along the lines of what I wanted to do as well. Sticks of PC100 SDRAM are cheap as heck and you can even get Serial-ATA drives into the Sawtooths now. Imagine an old Sawtooth with a Radeon 9000, two 160GB S-ATA drives, a 1-1.2G…
  • Quote: Originally posted by applenut get a radeon agp and a 512MB stick of PC100 Ram and that thing will run Panther just fine. I know cuz i own it :-) That's exactly what I wanted to hear. Did anyone see the Radeon 9000 with 128MB VR…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Leonard It's not an iMac. It's a PowerMac... most likely the next revision of the PowerMac motherboard with HyperTransport 2.0. It would make sense that it would have DDR II. I don't know how some people started thin…
  • Quote: Originally posted by FormerLurker Thanks Elwood.... so exactly where does one look for these beefy bargains? http://www.used-police-cars.com/ Their listed prices are a bit steep, so if you can find a local police auction, …
  • Pick up an ex-cop Crown Vic for anywhere from $3k to $10K. Most of the time, the cop modifications are still present. Just stick a spotlight on a sideview mirror, a freakishly large radio antenna on the back, leave the window tint and other cop g…
  • Quote: Originally posted by oldmacfan Well, we were going on power consumption numbers that were being reported back at Christmas time. Those numbers made most people believe it was possible when comparing it to the numbers for the G4. I kno…
  • First, figure out what you need. Do you need 4WD, A/C, etc? Will you be hauling stuff (surfboards, snowboards, etc) on a regular basis? How important is gas mileage to you? Like Splinemodel said, first ask yourself what your needs are.
  • Isn't it funny how we assumed that the 970fx would be a shoe-in for the Powerbooks? Heh, how times change.
  • Quote: Originally posted by midwinter Don't feed the sharks. Heh, maybe I should ask someone if pee attracts sharks. Mind you, there wasn't a single toilet for miles and we did see a few small sharks.

  • Quote: Originally posted by Existence I think you're forgetting the June 1999 update to the Blue and White G3s. Apple, in June 1999, boosted the speed by 50MHz and changed specifications of it's Blue and White G3s in early June of 1999 as a move …
  • I think this is the update that we were all expecting earlier this year. Since I'm a student, a dual 1.8Ghz at $1799 (with the education discount) is fanstastic. Like someone else said, you really don't need PCI-X. And honestly, how many peop…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Splinemodel I'm moving to a place on A1A, and am probably going to take it up myself. I'm sort-of excited, but the waves are pretty damn small on the Atlantic. The waves were pretty small when I went, but it's sti…

  • Interesting tidbit on the 9800XT: Quote: Special note on the ATI Radeon 9800 XT: due to size of this advanced graphics card, the adjacent PCI or PCI-X slot will be blocked and cannot be used. This reduces the number of available PCI or PCI-X slo…
  • So what happens to people who already have an ADC monitor? Will the new G5s still support it, or will they have to buy an converter?
  • I went to Surfside which is near Galveston, TX. Surprisingly, the weather was great, and even more astonishing, the beach was clean. The waves were not really that big, but fine to learn how to surf on. I borrowed a 10ft. long board. It was great…
