    Is the IBM 60GB gxp series the one with all the troubles?

    75GXP were the worst offenders, but many had nothing but good experiences with them. My 60GXP has been wonderful. The 120GXP has recently been released: http://www.xbitlabs.com/storage/ibm-120gxp/

    When or Can a unified Europe dethrone the US?

    Oh dear Texmaster, I thought you were an OK kinda guy until now. Clearly we all make mistakes ;) [i]<< Come on, you're making me laugh. I challenge you to find anything in my post that is identifiably childish. >> I just did.[i] You're being logically inconsistent. Provide a direct quotation...

    You are wrong, my friend. Our GDP is... Oh, surely you mean the U.S. Department of Labor is wrong? I was merely citing their statistics. Geographical size? Europe (not Eurasia) is much smaller than the US. However, I agree with your comments on the lack of unity. Not in the foreseeable future...

    Have you ever purposely distroyed any computer hardware?

    I used an old 386 motherboard as a series of golf tees. Watching the capacitors fly off was most cathartic.

    When or Can a unified Europe dethrone the US?

    The italics don't seem to want to be switched off. Your post really irritated me Rison :disgust:. Get your facts right. Germany is far larger than 10% of the US's size. The United States is merely one country on this small planet, and its inhabitants are neither inherently better nor worse than...

    17" LCDs, 1:25 aspect ratio, and DVI

    Why are AGP Video Cards NOT Manufactured the other way up ?

    AGP components face downwards, therefore don't get anywhere near as dusty. By this I didn't mean to imply this was the reason they are so designed, more a consequence of it.

    How does a computer generate a random #?

    how do you make a computer generate a COMPLETELY random number? One can't readily at the moment. As already mentioned, the clock and noise can be used, but the resulting numbers are still the output of a traceable process and so aren't really 'random' (although seemingly perfectably acceptably...

    When or Can a unified Europe dethrone the US?

    The countries that have adopted the euro - collectively known as the 'eurozone' - already form a larger economic base than the United States. Stuff the United Kingdom and the other missing nations in there in a couple of year's time, it will be noticeably larger. Europe's population is higher...

    Gainward GF3 BIOS + DVI

    NVIDIA FSAA under Linux

    I'm sure I'm being really dumb, but the GL_ENABLE_FSAA and GL_QUALITY_FSAA variables don't seem to do anything for me. I use the SET command and define the first as '1', the second '2', and that should enable 2x2 AA, right? Doesn't seem to... help please!

    17" LCDs, 1:25 aspect ratio, and DVI

    1) Are all 17" LCDs 1280x1024? When a Dell notebook can be purchased with a 15" 1600x1200, this seems a little odd to me. 2) When using 1280x1024, as it's not a 4:3 aspect ratio, do the widgets etc. in Windows look elongated? If so, why do people use this resolution? 3) How high a resolution...

    Anandtechs NV25 / Geforce4 Review is up

    Gomce: I noticed that too. There's no way a GF3 Ti 500 should be that much faster than an original GF3. I wonder whether Anand was using a different driver revision?

    Laptop Screen Resolutions

    No. A laptop's panel has a discreet and fixed number of elements making up the picture. Increasing the resolution beyond this would be futile as information would be lost. One can however, scale a lower resolution up to fit.

    Asynchronous FSB / RAM

    DSL or Cable? Need unbiased info on difference

    I don't understand why cable should be inherently less secure than DSL. Surely any potential attack will have to come at either the IP or maybe MAC level, and as both DSL and cable usually use ethernet (or pseudo-enet), then surely it doesn't matter?

    Linux equivalent of Intellipoint

    Using an Intellimouse Explorer USB under Mandrake 8.1. Works fine, but the fourth and fifth buttons do odd things and the wheel doesn't always behave as expected. Does any program offer the functionality of Intellipoint under Linux? I'd like to be able to click the third button and scroll a...

    Which is better? C-Media 8738 or SB128 PCI?

    My onboard CT5880 (PCI128 of sorts) works just fine under WinXP and Linux. No complaints about compatibility or sound quality. Pity it doesn't support EAX, but then again, how popular are these proprietry APIs anyway? RtCW doesn't support anything other than DirectSound.

    Extigy vs. Audigy
