stay in software management...or go back to coding??

You should do what you enjoy and/or stretches you. If you like coding, don't go into management or vice versa. Good coders often get asked to be managers, true enough, but you can say no or be a lead who keeps coding. I've seen a lot of wicked coders who would never be asked to be managers...

when's the next great MMORPG coming ?

I'm hoping D&D online will be good. I find it refreshing that your advancement is not predicated on grinding out kills, but by doing quests. For example: If you had a quest to return an item to an NPC which is currently being held by a mob deep in a dungeon, you could either wipe the...

Well . . .

Well, I got to level 60 and have to say that the only real difference was that I was spending time raiding higher level dungeons than lower ones. The idea that some new game play is somehow unlocked at higher levels is a falacy. It's still kill/loot just at a higher level in different places...

WoW Rogue Builds

I use a UI mod called Stance Sets that allows you to setup your default weapons loadout for stealthed/non-stealthed. Essentially, everytime I go into stealth my dagger goes to my main hand so I am ready to ambush/backstab. Then, when I become unstealthed, I have my mace in hand ready to fight...

If you had to pick what Blizzard made next, what would you make them do?

World of Diablo. WoW != Diablo 3. Diablo is dark and bruding comparatively. Don't get me wrong, WoW is a great game but I would much prefer the atmosphere and art direction of Diablo.

12V Makita Drill at Home Depot

Just a heads up on B+D drills: The 14V FireStorm was recalled last year. I'm not sure why, but maybe that will help some choose between them. I have a 12V, have used for tons of stuff over the last year and am very happy with it.

possible to get electricity without wires?

Why? You could send only enough power to make it work using a communications signal, ramping up the signal until you get a reply. Also, instead of boasting the gain to improve the quality of the communication, you could spread the signal over a larger spectrum.

The Exxon Speedpass and EZTag tollway tags are examples of powered, non-wired devices. They are powered by a radio signal sent by an interrogating device. When the unit receives a signal, it responds back sending a unique ID (RFID). Then the interrogating device takes the ID number and does...

The CompUSA's in Austin ran out of the board. I actually got Circuit City to pricematch the deal WITH the rebate and 10% off! Came out to $100 and change. Very sweet deal. I bought 2 boards, both were 8X AGP instead of 4, but unfortunately neither was 128MB.

Dell P991Trinitron monitor for $280 shipped after 20% off

I've had this model's little broter (the P990) for a few years and I can say it's been a great monitor. It's near flat (not quite as good as the g400's) and looks good at 1280x. I bought mine for $400 at Dell Factor Outlet (Retail was $700+) so this is a good price.
