Lost access to FS/T forum?

Admins- Apparently I haven't logged into FS/T since 2008. Wow! I'd love to again, but I'm getting a message that I can't access it. Are there new rules to access this forum? Thanks in advance!

Dell Latitude E6500

Got the E6500. So far I'm very, very impressed. The E line looks like a solid replacement for the soon to be retired D series.

Dell Latitude E6500

OK, I didn't know you could use a key for both the 32-bit and 64-bit version. Interesting. I've heard that Vista keys sometimes sync with specific OEM-issue discs so my only worry is that the key Dell provides me would only work with a Dell OEM copy of Vista. I know you can get around that by...

Dell Latitude E6500

I'm really glad I came here and asked what you guys thought of this. It turns out Dell isn't selling the E6500 with the 64-bit OS, even though the spec sheet says it supports it (and up to 8GB of memory). Trying to figure this out this morning.

Dell Latitude E6500

I agreed. I'll go with the 4500MHD. Everyone I've talked to has said it's a solid option so I'll take all of your words for it. =) I definitely want the 64-bit OS. I'll call and ask about it. It mentions nothing about it on the ordering screen.

Dell Latitude E6500

I had assumed it was Ultimate 64-bit, but you're right, I need to check. Why Dell would sell a laptop with four gigs of memory and provide a 32-bit OS is beyond me. As for the monitor, I'm torn. I'd like the extra battery life, but the laptop is going to be plugged in more often than not and...

Dell Latitude E6500

Dell is crafty. To customize a laptop fully you need to select the cheapest configuration, which reduces the "instant savings" cash amount. But if you don't select the cheapest model it locks you into minimum hard drive and memory selections which, of course, cost more. So, to get to the...

Dell Latitude E6500

I'm paying an extra $70 for the video card. I'll be using the system with a 22 inch LCD at home from time-to-time. You think that if I'm not gaming upgrading from the 4500MHD is a waste of cash and battery power? The 4GB upgrade is $210. I build all of my desktops but have never opened one of...

How outdated is the S754 lineup

For $1000 you can build something pretty damn nice, actually. Far better than a 754 system. I'm guessing you could spend closer to $600 for a full 754 system. Check out this guy's offer: http://forums.anandtech.com/me...ord1=%22athlon+3700%22

Official NLCS Thread

As a Giants fan all I can tell you is to enjoy it while it lasts. Catching lightning in a bottle and making the World Series is an incredible experience. The rest of us baseball fans are pretty shocked. A rotation led by Jeff Francis and Josh Fogg in the world series? Now that's unbelievable.

Best homeless sign I've ever seen...

BtW, I wonder if this was shot in SF, or is there some homeless union out there that trains the homeless in sign-making? I've seen hundreds and hundreds of signs in my day, but Saturday was the first time I've seen one asking for karate lessons.

Best homeless sign I've ever seen...

LOL, that sounds like something Chris Rock would say. The homeless aren't doing too bad in SF. There are thousands and thousands of them, and the city isn't very big. I believe the city gives them quite a bit of aid. I'm guessing most of the begging money goes to alcohol, not to food.

OK, so I was walking down the San Francisco Embarcadero (the strip of piers and streets along the bay) after a Giants game and I see a homeless dude ahead holding the best sign I've ever seen: He didn't get any money from me, but I did laugh.

Just like the GSW/Jazz series. SA takes 1 and 2 at home, the Jazz explode to take game 3 but lose game 4 at home, then get blown out in game 5. SA wins series 4-1. GG

Jazz fans can sure relate to Warriors fans right now (and vice versa). Both teams are MUCH better at home than on the road, and were counting on winning every game at home for a chance to beat the better team. The Jazz did a great job of ending the Warriors season by taking the first two at home...

As I said above, the Jazz are going to go out just like the Warriors did against them. They'll lose games 1 and 2 on the road, win a big game at home, then lose game 4 at home, and then game 5 in SA.

I really doubt the Jazz will win tonight. They're just not that good of an away team, and they can't bully the Spurs. I'd guess they'll do exactly what the GSW did to them. Lose the first two on the road, win the next in Utah, lose the next in Utah, and lose game 5 in SA. The Spurs are just...

Jackson a thug and a cancer? That's such an easy statement to make. Last I checked, it was Jackson along with Baron that got us into the playoffs and beat the Mavs in the first round. I guess you'd like Dunleavy and Murphy back and a 32-50 record.

Beidrins isn't really anything other than a quick scoring option for Baron and the rest of the team in the flow of the offense. He can't self create, but he can take a quick dish for a dunk. He has some of the quickest hands on the team, making him a decent weapon for a PG. He is nothing like...

The series is over for Golden State. I'm a huge Warriors fan, and I'll be the first to say that the Jazz are just a better team. The Warriors have some huge holes up front, and the small ball lineup was doomed to fail at some point. We killed The Mavs, we had our fun with the Jazz in game 3, but...

Both of these teams are good at home and pretty bad on the road. Yes, I think the Jazz can take one in Oakland (but not saying they will), just like GSW almost had game one and two. It's my guess that this series will go 7, with the Jazz having the edge in game 7 because it's played in Utah. The...

The GSW/Jazz series will be interesting. The Warriors are a pretty bad road team, but have done decently against the Mavs and the Jazz. They are an amazing home team. If the Jazz beat them at home, the series will probably go to Utah. If they can't the Warriors will probably win the series...
