Right now all I see is price gouging, I assume due to supply constraints -- any idea when these processors will have sufficient supply to normalize prices?
3D nand flash is coming next year. If you can hold out at all, you won't be sorry. If you can't hold out, by xmas next year you'll be shocked at the capacities and prices on offer, and wishing you had held out.
Who puts porn on an SSD?? It's games, big fat games that I can't seem to finish before I install and start playing new ones...
That and 8 different operating systems in VM's ;-)
Because of 3D NAND I expect 1TB SSD's to be under $100 within 15 months, and to see 3TB to 5TB 3D NAND drives at around $150-200 by the end of 2016. My 256 and 512TB SSD's will last me until then....
I did some more research - looks like it's part of a hacker process using emails stolen from one of these sources:
Dungeons & Dragons Online
xtranormal.com
ign.com
gamespot.com
fileplanet.com
direct2drive.com
One thing I've learned over the years is never, ever use the same passwords across...
Today I got e-mail messages in both my primary e-mail's junk boxes, asking me to confirm my account creation for accounts at battle.net.
They were addressed to "zhang" and contained what appeared (via mouse hover) to be legitimate links back to blizzard, and a peek at the full e-mail headers...
I think that's optimistic. For one thing, you really need a dual-screen device with both an e-ink and a TFT (or AMOLED) screen to do all that, and no one in the market has the vested interest to sink a lot of development money into it other than Amazon and B & N. So far all we've seen on the...
No, late 70's .... back then we had Pong. Just Pong. Unless your parents spoiled you with an Apple IIc. Which mine didn't.
Anyway, those games are "scrollers" - AKA "side scroller" or "vertical scroller". Sorry, I don't have any to recommend to you.
Not for me it isn't. It's a game I will play until the Football Manager 2010 demo is out, in about a month. So the 8 bucks I paid for it is about right.
He did. I know, because I almost did too. Luckily, I stuck it out, learned how to click-jiggle the mouse to swing effectively, and got thoroughly and rewardingly engrossed in the game.
Well the good newses are, The Witcher IS epic, HAS great graphics, and best of all, the story far, far...
Nice find. I'm planning to take an exam this Spring anyway, so this helps.
It was a bit challenging to find the Collections in the catalog, so try this: http://learning.microsoft.com/Manager/Catalog.aspx?clang=en-US&dtype=Catalog&Sort=PriceDescending&page=1&search=collection
If you flip the USB hard drive or flash drive to "permanent" from "removable", most virtualization products can boot from a USB device. There are people with full ESXi installations running from flash drives.
You can flip USB devices to permanent in the BIOS on some motherboards, or there's...
An actual 9-pin serial port? No. No netbook I've seen yet has one of those old things. I can't imagine any current manufacturer making one with a 9-pin serial port ever, either.
He just needs it to study. 1GB of RAM is adequate, there will be some disk swapping if you are running user programs, but that should be fine.
Install Win2003 and give the WinXP VM 256mb, as others have mentioned. I'd personally use VMWare Server 2, but Virtual PC 2007 is fine.
ESXi would far and away be my first choice, but you may find it impossible, or unreasonably difficult, to get ESXi running on your machine.
ESXi is designed to install on a limited set of compatible hardware, mainly a subset of servers from Dell, HP, and IBM plus some weird enterprise stuff...
This model has been on Newegg at $699 for a few weeks, after briefly being as low as $599 with free AIT shipping ... I keep waiting for it to go back down to $599 because I failed to pull the trigger :rolleyes:
Yep, its gone. It's been replaced by "Sprint Everything Plus", which requires a Sprint employee e-mail address and the last three digits of that employees ID number. And i'd bet the new prices widely rumored are in place - $60 instead of $30 for the lowest plan.
On a positive note, my HTC...
Mogul TOO BIG! One of the biggest hesitations I had was having to give up my tiny antique Audiovox 8500. I figure that even if I decide I don't like the phone, or don't really need the plan (this will be my first data plan), one of my sisters or my niece will happily take the Touch. They'd...
Well, after a ton of research at howardforums.com and sprintusers.com, I stopped vacillating and placed an order for an HTC Touch with the $30 SERO plan today. We'll see how it goes.
Hmmmm the Palm 800w looks very nice, and supposedly will launch from Sprint on July 13th - how hard (and expensive) do you think it will be to upgrade from a "placeholder" SERO account phone? I'm guessing the M520 could also be used as a "placeholder" since it is also Power Vision?
I'm confused about the Power Vision stuff mentioned by TheGodfather47 - do all the features mentioned under the "Simply Everything" plan on the Plan page come with the SERO special pricing? Or is SERO just unlimited data, messages, etc. with none of those nifty features? Or does that depend on...
Are they 10k RPM drives or 15k RPM drives? Individual 15k RPM drives should hit about 70MB/sec. RAID 5 reads hit full speed with 5 or 6 (or more) drives in the array, any less and the controller still has significant free bandwidth.
I have FIOS at home, FIOS kicks ass. Every time a new Verizon sales rep comes calling at work I tell them the only way they can help me (I'm the IT Manager) is if our building can get FIOS. So far, no deal, even though the houses directly across the street have it installed. :rolleyes:
Firewalls generally block ports. Viruses and spyware are generally contained in files you download or get as e-mail attachments, or else on infected websites you access through your web browser on port 80 (not blocked, obviously). Therefore, most viruses and spyware arrive on different attack...
Well, I checked out iRacing and LFS websites. You're right, they are not what I'm hoping for. They both take the arcade experience online and make it more hardcore - possibly a future interest, but right now I'm looking for a racing game with management features, if it even exists.
GTR 2...
Heh so do I. I'm slowly getting the "time behind the wheel" I need though - last night I actually almost finished 5th in a race, smacked the wall on the 2nd to last turn and ended up last. It's just a matter of practice, and tinkering with the "advanced" control settings. On default settings...
