    Any idea why orange ram slots vs. yellow are said to be better for DFI SL-DR?

    I am taking a guess here. If the manual says a particular order I would stick to the order it says if you are going for lower latency. Modern memory is really fast and board design is a pain to get right, which is why cheap motherboards cannot hit the same latency as the better motherboards...

    Athlon64 X2 4200+ OEM

    I would rather have the tax charged by the retailer than have to deal with it at tax time with the "usage tax" (non-sale taxed out of state purchases where the purchased item will be used within the state of California). You are taxed anyways. Not declaring the correct usage tax significantly...

    Hot Tradeup Deal with Netgear WPN824 Router

    Sounds more like buy a Netgear WPN824, then trade your old router for a new wireless card (choose: WPN511, WPN311, WPN111 each runs about $80). You need to pay to ship them your old router. So it's basically an $80-shipping-old_router MIR for one of these wireless cards if you buy a WPN824...

    Pioneer 16X DVD±RW 6x Dual Layer Internal Writer - Black

    I thought that the difference between the 109 vs. A09 was that the A09 is quieter.

    BFG 7800 GTX $491 shipped free!

    I am not an accountant or attorney, but FYI for all those discussing state taxes. BTW, at least in California even if the online retailer does not charge you sales tax when you file your state taxes you are supposed to declare any online purchases for which you did not pay sales tax. It is...

    Looking for VOIP deal for N.America

    I love Vonage (sarcasm). I file a tech support request and they respond 3 months later. When I call them up, they only take an hour to answer, isn't that great! I even get other people's voice mail sometimes. Makes life interesting to figure out if a message is from someone I know or not...

    Calvin and Hobbs Complete Collection $82

    All the t-shirts, stickers, etc. are unauthorized last I heard. Bill Watterson only wanted Calvin in comic form. I have one of the unauthorized T-shirts "Every day of my life I'm forced to add another name to the list of people who piss me off," but I would buy an authorized one if I could.

    i learned to day- never to by Dell

    I just bought a Dell laptop with one of the $750 off coupons. It was missing a driver and I was having a hard time finding it on their Web site. I called them up for tech support as I purchased the 1-year Technical Support. They wanted to charge me $50 because drivers are a software issue and...

    scsi on a8v?

    No, SCSI is an alternative to IDE that is mainly used in the server market. You either need a motherboard that has SCSI (usually server motherboards) or a SCSI controller. To make matters more complicated there are many different types of SCSI. See the SCSI FAQ.

    How do these two PSUs compare?

    I guess we are both looking at power supplies at the same time. The nice thing I noticed about the Antec Truepower II 550 is that it provides 19A on the +12V rails rather than the 18A that Enermax provides. The thread I created is very similar, but with the Enermax Noisetaker 600W instead...

    Hot deal from Amazon $115 shipped (today only)

    I received an e-mail on the 15th: "We wanted to let you know that there is a delay with item(s) in the order you placed on June 06 2005 20:46 PDT" At least half the time I get a delay notice from amazon the order ends up being canceled. Let's hope this isn't one of those times.

    RMA Abuse.

    I would also like to add to my previous post that just because something is the law does not mean retailers will follow it. Lots of retailers in California charge surcharges on credit cards even though it is illegal. I have pointed out the statute to some retailers and they have told me that...

    RMA Abuse.

    I am not a lawyer. Most states in the US have an implied warranty of merchantability. In California for example, "unless a conspicuous writing is attached to the goods which clearly informs the buyer, prior to the sale, in simple and concise language" that the sale is "as is" or "with all...

    The Islamic thread

    I tried looking up some numbers. The percentage of working women ranges from eight percent in Bahrain to 33 percent in Jordan. The percentage of HIV in the US is 0.6%. In the Middle East it is less than 0.1%, which does support less extramarital sex in the Middle East. A couple articles...

    Fixing quotes. The way you wrote your post it made it look like you were adding to what I said. Please edit your post. My point is that religion and cultures should not assign women a place. The impression that I get from Sultan is that it is Islamic culture that is sexist and not the...

    2005. That does not mean that history does not matter. More examples include the witch hunts in Europe and the US from 1484 to 1782 where approximately 300,000 women were put to death. Hitler was confirmed as a Catholic. "My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a...

    The Islamic thread

    The Spanish Inquisition and the Crusades are good examples of Christian radicals carrying out mass murder. Hitler was a convert to Christianity so I am not sure whether he counts. Some people would argue, as BBond does, that the US is carrying out mass murder in Iraq. I am not sure that he...

    You seem to argue with me and then contradict yourself. I realize that these statements are not equivalent ly opposite in meaning, but the way they are presented creates a contradiction. It seems like you are saying women can have jobs too... but not the same jobs. You are not presenting a...

    Orthodox male Jews are supposed to wear kippot. I have heard it argued that Judaism is sexist because only men get to wear kippot. In Reform Judaism, women are allowed to wear kippot if they wish. I have not heard of any cases where Muslim men wanted to wear the scarfs of Muslim women, but...

    Abu Jafar Muhammad ibn Jarir at-Tabari (838-923) apparently did a 30-volume commentary on the Quran. I do not know if this work has much influence is Islam, but I came across a reference to it. [Edit: fixed typo.]

    You make it sound like you are defending treating men and women differently. Yes, no one claims that men and women are the same physically. However, trying to extend physical differences to claim that they are different in many other ways is where things start to stretch a little thin...

    91% of over 800 Abortion Clinics agree to illegally conceal statutory rape

    The sting was a 13 year old girl claiming to have been impregnated by a 20-something. That is still not moral IMO and deserves a prosecution. A 16 or 17 year old I could see not being reported, and in some states that is not statutory rape. In any case, I feel the parents should be...

    (Illinois) State House passes gay rights bill

    Do you honestly believe that many gay people wear pink tutus? Just because you cannot discriminate against gender, does it mean you would have to hire a woman who dresses as a prostitute or man that dresses as a pimp. Just because you cannot discriminate does not mean you cannot have a dress...

    Israeli army kills Palestinians in Gaza

    From that article, it does not appear that the Israeli military is telling the truth. The military shot him. The most probable situation was that he was in a hury to get his wife to the hospital and was driving fast towards the military officers. They thought he was a threat and shot him...

    White House Fought New Curbs on Interrogations, Officials Say

    Of course Bush does not want the torture to stop. He ordered it in the first place. I have no respect for anyone who claims to be a moral person and supports Bush. Bush has no problem using torture and death squads ("El Salvador" option that is being looked into) to make his rich friends...

    I am going a little off topic here. I hope that was a joke though. If not and you are a Christian you should learn more about your religion. Lets just start with the recent Christmas: The Mistletoe is traced at least back to Norse myths. Frigga is the Norse Goddess of love, marriage...

    RMA Abuse.

    is it possible to get a virus in the BIOS?

    There are some older viruses that infect both the MBR and the bios. Getting rid of these viruses is a pain. I believe these are the steps I used: 1) Turn off BIOS protection in the BIOS if you turned it on 2) On a virus free computer create two floppies, one with fdisk and one with the...

    RMA Abuse.

    The figures do not look right to me. I think the main thing you forgot to account for is what the actual cost of the RMA is to the company: retesting the part or just assuming it is dead, some parts are fixed when bad while others are replaced, sending the replacement, and handling the...
