Got my Asus 1201N

I'm having a hard time gauging the performance of this netbook. I'm looking for something to replace my wife's Dell 5 year old 500m and this looks like a good solution. She'll be using it for email, websurfing, word processing, etc. Obviously not for gaming. Right now her laptop is...

Scanning with my Print Server...

I've been wondering if there's a way to split a USB connection, so that the printer is attached to the print server and the computer. That would solve the problem. Edit: Oh never mind, I just reread the original post.

On November 2, the entire civilised world will be praying, praying Bush loses.

Funny that you quote British free speech rights when the UK has more stringent speech laws than does the US, c.f. the recent investigations and arrests of a couple of Muslim clerics for "incitement."

This guy should be careful for what he wishes. After all, were Bush to be assassinated, Dr. Evi...I mean Dick Cheney would become president.

Dell Axim X30 PocketPC w/ 624MHz, Bluetooth & WiFi - $266.65 Shipped

I have one of these things and it's been great so far. I use the WiFi at home, and it's pretty cool checking my email and surfing the web while sittin'on the couch. Of course, the version of IE on there isn't great, but for a PDA, it's not half-bad.

Well its frequency response only goes down to 30 Hz, so it's not that great, but for $100, I don't think you could do better.

Even $367 CDN is pretty cheap. These cards go for over $300 US. Maybe I should have them shipped to my girlfriend's parents' place in Montreal and pick them up and sell them. I could make quite a bit I bet.

Israel getting what it deserves

Yes, I know very well about Deir Yassin, and I am the first to admit that it is a black mark upon the history of Zionism. However, I grow tired of the anti-Israeli/anti-Zionist crowd using a Deir Yassin as a moral club when, 4 days later the Arabs massacred a group of 80 Jewish doctors, nurses...

Israel getting what it deserves

You should know the Sabra and Shatila massacres were carried out by the Christian Arab Phalange in revenge for the assassination of their leader, not by the IDF. This is not to say that the IDF is squeaky clean in this matter, but let's get the facts straight, shall we?

Does bass damage hearing? Edit: Perhaps I have found the answer.

A few things: 1. Yes your hearing can deteriorate from prolonged exposure to high levels of low frequency (i.e. bass) sound. Generally, this deterioration will occur more slowly than it it were caused by exposure to high freqency sounds, but it will happen. Moreover, the degredation in...

Yes, the HD-497's are excellent headphones - I picked up a pair recently and really enjoy them, but you can do a bit better here. They're $48.99 + $3.95 shipping. There was a $5.00 coupon floating around for Amazon, but I don't know if it's still good. Then the prices are about equal.

Bose Quality Speakers for cheap

Perhaps you should take your own advice before insulting me. I wasn't talking about 200 Hz, I was talking about more low frequency sounds, such as you know, below 80 Hz as he insists should be the max limit that subwoofer should produce. I wouldn't doubt you'd be able to localize at 200 Hz...
