Not sure if this is actually a good idea. It will definitely promote programming language classes, which I think is a good thing. However, it does this at the expense of foreign conversational language classes. The two subjects are both languages in name, but the type of learning they provide...

Not sure what you mean, I dont see anything in the interface changes which would hinder multitasking.

I'm sure they do have a lot of good talent working on the designs and color schemes. A lot of the stuff that is included with a fresh install of Windows 7 to customize the look of the desktop was great. You'd think they'd pick a more professional looking theme to show as a first impression...

I just hope that the start screen has a wide range of settings to customize it. The only thing I hate about all the screenshots of the new interface is that MS always uses such awful color schemes, background images and such. The design structure may be solid and have a good flow, but using...

I used to just keep my main computer on 24/7. But nowdays, I put mine to sleep if I know I wont be using it for awhile, and have it set to go to sleep after being idle for a couple hours.

The game looks great, and the jumping from car to car is kinda interesting. However, the actual driving in the game felt horrible.

Am I alone in thinking that case looks absolutely horrid? Maybe I'm just too used to the clean look of Lian Li and Silverstone cases.

I have not had any problems with mine. Maybe I'm just lucky, cause I haven't experienced any of the problems people are reporting. I don't even use a case or bumper of any sort. In fact my only complaint about the new iphone is that the back feels exactly like the front when it is in my...

I've been following the postings about this iphone pretty closely. My 3g is ready to be replaced and all this hype has definitely got me eagerly anticipating the new iphone's release. That being said, I think the lost prototype gizmodo aquired was a careful orchestrated leak by Apple. They...

I also have a U2410 without any tinting problems whatsoever. It has been a wonderful display for the past few months I've owned it. I'm even planning on buying 2 others to create an eyefinity setup soon.

Ah... sorry was directed at JcRabbit.

Is that an Ikea Galant desk? Been thinking of getting that exact same desk in anticipation of getting another couple monitors for an eyefinity setup myself. My current desk is far too cramped to set up 3 1920x1200 lcds. How has the desk held up for you? Any caveats or things I should be wary of?

There have been cases of people with authenticators being hacked. So it's not entirely foolproof. If a hacker somehow gets the serial number for your authenticator, and has enough personal information about you, it is possible to remove the authenticator from the account. Just because you...

I picked up these last week (or at least the black usb version of them), and so far I'm very impressed. Sound is very clear, and the mic picks up my voice well. The Siberia is also very comfortable. Despite being very light, it feels very secure on my head, and I can have them on for hours...

I love my gnome mage. I've been playing a mage since WoW was released, and it just seems to fit me well. Also have a warlock at 80, and working on leveling a rogue, but I don't like them as much as the mage. I just can't instinctively react as well as I do on my mage.

Yeah... i've had a HRAP for awhile. I just got around to getting some different buttons and acrylic top for it so i can add my own art to it, and it is a hassle to open up. Still a pretty solid joystick though.

SF4... Oh sure, I'll play it if there's no other fighting games available at the time. I used to love the other Street Fighter games of the series, and various SF verses whatever other series. I have also been big into other fighting games (both 2d and 3d) off and on over the years. The...

Sounds as if the mp3 header might be corrupt. If you check the properties of the affected files, are the bit rates for them blank or are they some weird bit rate (like 0 or something abnormally high)? I had a similar problem with some mp3s ages ago. Can't remember what software i used to...

I would imagine it is one of those things that if you have to ask how much, you can't afford it.

I think I'm also going to get a OCZ Vertex pretty soon. Probably a 120gig for me though. I was trying to hold out until the OCZ Colossus came out on the market, but I haven't heard anything recently about it, and I'm starting to get impatient.

If you use any applications for content creation (graphics, video, audio, whatever), more memory always helps. And with memory prices constantly dropping, more and more people are running into the 4gig limit of 32bit windows. As stated before in this thread, there are more reasons to go to...

Think of it this way... There are some car enthusiasts who love to see cars as pristine and working as if they just rolled off the assembly line, and other car enthusiasts who like to push cars way beyond stock performance. There are similar distinctions between different computer enthusiasts...

I'm probably going to go the Technet route. With 3 pcs which I'll install Win7, and at least one I'd install Office, $250 for a Technet subscription seems to be a pretty decent deal.

Just this past week, I built a new system in a V351. I'm pretty happy with it. The V351 seems a bit more cramped than the Qpack cases I used for the past couple computers I've built, but I think that was mostly due to having 2 video cards and a larger cpu cooler and power supply than what I...

Got a Phenom II x4 955 black edition with a Noctua C12P cooler sitting on it. Haven't really messed around with trying to overclock it any though (...yet ;)). Also have the board loaded up with 4 Mushkin 2 gig sticks for a total of 8 gigs of memory and 2 Powercolor AX4850 1 gig video cards...

Just put together my new system last night with this board, and everything installed like a breeze. Oh... and Win7 64bit RC1 works just fine. :)

Really? The couple reviews I read of the DuOrb weren't that bad, and it would seem the dimensions of it would be perfect for a mATX system. Oh well, I just placed an order for the Noctura on your advice, and seeing that so many other people have used it in this thread. Gotta replace that god...

hmm... Seemed as if there was more room to work with than that. Gonna try using a Thermaltake CL-P0464 DuOrb then, as that will definitely not have any clearance issues. Might switch to a Noctua NH-C12P if that doesnt work out. I'll post pics next week once it all arrives and I start putting...

Just ordered a V351. Anyone have the approximate clearance above where the cpu would be? Seems like there would be plenty, but would a Zalman CNPS9900 fit?

Yeah... Can't always trust the customer reviews. Just seemed fishy that there were two reviews like that.

A couple of the customer reviews on newegg seem to indicate problems with 64 bit OSes. Has anyone had any luck installing 64 bit Vista or 7 on this board?

I'm definitely getting the itch to build a new computer.

Actually... if a CD is imbalanced due to uneven paint/label application, shaving excess weight from the outer edge of the CD would make the vibration worse.

I previously mentioned that i had picked up a PS3 in anticipation of this game... ... and after playing this for the past few days, I have to say that this game has completely justified my purchase of my PS3. I am totally satisfied.

I wasted sooo many hours and tons of money in arcades 10-15 years ago. But yeah... it's something I miss. I have very fond memories of the days when you would walk into an arcade and see a crowd huddled around a fighting game like Street Fighter II or Killer Instinct, and need to put up a...

OMG... Wipeout HD was everything I had hoped for. I didnt have much time to play it last night, but so far I am extremely pleased. And at $20 it is simply a steal.

I bought a PS3 a few months ago in anticipation for this game. I'm really happy to finally see some concrete information and signs that its going to be released soon. For awhile there, I was worried that it would be just perpetually delayed.

I'd take a look at what other games you want to play, and see if that simplifies your decision. I recently picked up a PS3, but i was interested in MGS4 and Wipeout HD. So the decision to go with the PS3 was fairly easy. The draw of the PS3 being a blue ray player is pretty nice, and was...

The only ones i see complaining about this are people on PVP servers that get some sort of satisfaction from ganking lower level or people with a lot less gear. And before someone mentions the character in my sig.... I leveled my first couple characters on a PVP server, but I currently play...
