http://www.discourse.org/ is a cool thing

from the OP: "logo will be a sticker included in the box - apply it anywhere you prefer"

Lighting is easy to add yourself. I vote leave it off and save the cost.

Try using http://stereopsis.com/flux/ .

This is gonna be so worth it though.

Neat. I'm still looking to pick one of these up.

i mostly agree here. I've used cherry blues and topres and I'd say I use much less pressure when I type now since the actuation force is reliable and I don't have to mash membrane keys. If you're having joint problems, go for the root causes. Fix your posture, use an ergo keyboard like the...

Wow, that's a great deal on the E9.

Says the hazros aren't available to customers outside the UK. bummer :(

Anybody found any updates? I've already sold my rig and am waiting on this case to be released :3

Koans are a great way to start learning the basic mechanics of a language. I'd check out Java koans paired with a good starter book- I'm not familiar with any. If Ruby interests you, I work with it daily and I found it and it's community a great resource. http://rubykoans.com/ and if you find...

Looks awesome.

https://github.com/xdissent/ievms - I use these for testing IE7/8/9 on osx, as the others are available natively. I don't see how anything else changes from a browser compat standpoint.. you still have to test on as many browsers as you officially support, regardless of your development...

Have to pimp out Rails. As a framework it's not perfect, but as a dev in the Ruby world I can't imagine a friendlier industry, nor one I am more spoiled in. If you are a competent engineer, Ruby (and most likely Rails, at least as a buzzword) is definitely a path you should check out.

The beta is a ton of fun to play and is a really unforgiving game. None of the bullshit killstreaks and perks that make the recent call of duty games a joke.

I used the Scythe Big Shuriken on the ECS H57 mini-itx board, but with mini-itx boards it's tough to be sure what layouts are compatible. Hopefully someone else can chime in. Just make sure you mount the cooler before installing the motherboard!

Looks like you've already done the requisite research. The PNY card makes me sad, but it does have a lifetime warranty and I haven't had personal experience with them so I can't really speak on that. Generally companies like EVGA and XFX provide outstanding service with varying quality...

A related but not specific solution would be to use f.lux, which I love. Changes the color temperature depending on time, but you can easily toggle it manually if you want. http://stereopsis.com/flux/

Thanks for the feedback- I've emailed them again hoping for a response.

Has anyone gotten a response from Hazro recently? I've emailed since I'm interested in buying one or getting on some sort of waitlist once they come back in stock... :\

Didn't know it was that bad. 300 concurrent :( I was keeping tabs on the previews as they were released and I loved the games they were looking to combine (Mirror's Edge, TF2, Borderlands?) so it's a bummer to see the game do poorly.

I also don't understand why easily removable dust filters aren't universal. Silverstone even has them on the FT03, so it's not like they don't know how to do it. :\

While Idra's rage is easy to make fun of, I think it reveals that his bottleneck right now is his composure and when he figures that out (and he's made tons of progress in the last few months) I think his game is going to get to the highest levels.

Careful using ordinary rubber bands. They'll dry out and fatigue over time, then snap.

Ruby is definitely a great language to get some experience with now- I just graduated and I can't imagine an easier job search after having had a great RoR internship with a local consulting firm. Koans are a great tool, but you can also do things like practice implementing algorithms in Ruby...

Neither, if you can swing it.

Stop typing 'right' you idiots.

If cost savings are worthwhile, it might not be a terrible idea to consider just using university computers where the performance is needed- I know our architecture and civil engineering labs have FirePro cards (ATi equiv of Quadro) as of a couple years ago. If it turns out that won't work (or...

Looks like a terrible waste of time, but have fun.

Sure. Going solid state will give you the single biggest boost, followed by picking a motherboard that supports UEFI. As mentioned already, disabling any extra features you don't need (sata, legacy controllers, etc) will help as well. Otherwise, I think the differences will be fairly minimal...

Just curious- what is the use case that dictates driving a computer build/purchase by boot time?

Isn't it creepy to have those mannequin heads? :\

nice username ;)

Glad a mini itx sandy bridge board is finally out. I'll be looking for user reviews and stuff in the next coming months :)

i don't know... i think an incontrol/artosis combination would just be the bomb. Two really confident casters that are professional enough to play constructively off of each other, even though they disagree often.

This is pretty reasonable. I don't think it's possible to make a game changing case unless you make specific sacrifices- those being a full 5.25" slot, full atx psu, and full length/height video card. A lot of SFF cases now are pretty damn good on space already for the accommodations they provide.

bastage has this case (and just finished a build with it) so I'd ask him. Better than any third party review. Oh look, he's already posted :p

Yeah, very very much something I'd take a look at. Classy and industrial are the two keywords i'd use to describe the perfect sff case for me.

Boo :( The habey's form factor is reaaaaaaally sweet, but the styling of the vent holes and button in the middle are so bleah. Good to hear that the chassis itself is solid though.

Agreed here- it's not even worth looking at software voltage readings. Need a proper voltmeter/multimeter for that.
