    Phoenix or Anaheim for 3-4 days late November?

    I've got an opportunity to take a short trip to either Phoenix, with possibly a side trip to the Grand Canyon, or Anaheim/LA and possibly San Diego during the last part of November for about 3-4 days. Looking for help making a quick decision on which is the better option for a guy from western...

    Can't burn DVD on BenQ 1620 reverts to CDROM

    Drvie plays DVDs and CDs fine, also burns CDs. It won't properly recognize a blank DVD speed shows as 2.4x and craps out when goes to start recording, speed should show up to 12x. In my computer changes from DVD to CD when blank DVD inserted. Have tried different discs - Maxell DVD-R 8x MiJ...

    If american idol is such a hit....

    They've already tried the group approach at least a couple times, PopStars I think it was called and Making the Band come to mind. American Idol is a top 5 show, Kelly Clarkson is currently at #6 (after 8 wks) on the Billboard Hot 100 Album chart, 2 songs in the top 50. Noticed Fantasia (sp.?)...

    Official AFC Championship Thread: Pittsburgh Steelers vs. New England Patriots

    So the comparison is #1 (before holding Jets 17th in points scored to 3 points) vs #2 (before holding Colts #1 offence to 3 points). While I still pick the Steelers defence there isn't a great leap to pick the Pats D. The team that makes the least mistakes should win, all things considered...

    I LOVE SLEEP!!!

    I like sleeping, what I don't like is the need to sleep. If I could sleep when I wanted rather than as the body needs ... damn getting up at 4:30am 5 days a week and still trying to get things done at this hour. :frown:

    Official AFC Championship Thread: Pittsburgh Steelers vs. New England Patriots

    Football fans and repoters are a fickle bunch. Steelers escape with a close win and suddenly at 16-1 they are not being picked to win. Couple that with an impressive game by the Pats and what a difference a week makes. I'll admit to being the same, on another forum after the Jets game I asked if...

    Official AFC Championship Thread: Pittsburgh Steelers vs. New England Patriots

    Patriots D was #2 in points allowed, not counting last week which could potenially make them a #1 pick. Coaching and QB (both 7-0 with NE in the playoffs with lots of wintery weather) no brainer favor NE, I'd give the edge running to Pitt. and homefield. As lots have said already if Ben doesn't...

    Can someone recommend me a good tv tuner?

    I've got both an ATi Radeon AIW and a LeadTek Winfast XP2000 deluxe (never did figure out what's deluxe about it). The ATi is easily the superior of the two. I've never been very satisfied with the Winfast card. Granted the Expert has two extra bits to improve on the picture quality. The...

    people who live in cold areas

    It's a heck of a lot easier to sleep on a cold night than a hot one. Blankets, heat, walls, roofs, etc. all come in handy when it's 30 below like it is right now. But all that's for pansies. I just strip down and burrow into a snowbank. j/k

    Quick Seagate Hard Drive question (ST3120026A)

    I got a 200GB SATA recently and it seems noisier than the 120GB WD SATA that's about a year old, weird. They are supposed to be a little faster at least for seeks so I guess it makes some sense. These are in a Dell 8300 so not much competing noise, I'd never really noticed the WD, I can notice...

    how many days off you get a year at your company?

    15 vacation days, earned at the rate of 1.25 days/mth. Plus stat holidays, sick days; and unpaid personal days. Thanks to a policy change next year only, I'll get 4.5 wks instead of 3wks., assuming I stay all year which I don't really intend to. After 8yrs goes to 20 days per year.

    Who's paid on a bi-weekly basis?

    I get paid every second Friday, October will be a 3 check month as well, but really makes no difference. My sister used to get paid on biweekly Thursday (day before me) but with the merger is now twice a month 15th & 30th I believe. She complained to me about it. :roll:

    Name the worst corporate merger in history

    Another vote for AOL - TimeWarner, half the name gets dropped a while after the merger that sums it up in a nutshell. Horrid move by TimeWarner, AOL was pretty much past its prime regardless.

    17-18% of net for rent which includes basic utilities (heat, electrical, water). Now if I didn't have four loans I'd be smiling a lot more.

    If you love a girl....

    People tend not to change, don't think you can change them. If you're not able to trust her now than move on. Find some milder girl to take home to mommy.

    In hindsight, what was the worst hardware purchase you have ever made?

    Aside from the overly expensive first computer, a P120 by NEC (remember the "Ready" line) that I had beyond its useful life; I'd say the HP 4X DVD burner for $170 that I've used exactly once.

    Do u ever turn off your monitor?

    Screensaver after 10mins, then standby after 20mins. If I'm going to be away from the comp for more than about 30mins I'll just turn it (19" CRT in a hot apt.) off.
