    SNES question

    rca (composite) - but I know for a fact that an S-Video cable designed for a cube works on it as well (Nintendo's been using the same video connector for a long time)

    Take this Canada...(Repost from 1985)

    And you think government is different from a business how? Socialized health care cuts just as many corners as an insurance company is likely to. As far as things Canada has over the US (or specifically my current location of S Korea) - poutine. I'd kill for some of that stuff right now.

    $2500 to spend on a notebook - recommendations?

    Your assuming a lot of things. 1. you assume that their would be a magical huge surge in adoption of osx if it wasnt tied to apple hardware -problem being this isnt necessarily the case - you're still chosing a platform by going with osx and the barriers to switching can be pricey (e.g...

    $2500 to spend on a notebook - recommendations?

    Releasing mac OS as a stand alone product (e.g. not tied to running on apple hardware) would kill apple as a company (outside of perhaps their consumer electronics/ipod division. The sales of hardware are what funds the development of that OS, and the majority of their non-ipod profits come...

    This is what happens when there is fear of a snowball shortage in WoW

    It's an NPC that's only around for the holidays. The only other way to get snowballs is to have an engineer make them, and it requires a fairly rare schematic (gotten only during this holiday or last holiday season). Plus engineers can only make 1 snowball/day per character. Now you can buy...

    FYI on WoW 1.9 Patch...

    One class getting an extra talent point when all of the talent trees are balanced around not being able to get a 21 point talent if you get a 31 point is game breaking. But that's just one in a long list of screwups they've had. Patch 1.8 for WoW gave tons of people huge latency issues...

    FYI on WoW 1.9 Patch...

    Blizzard frequently ignores bug reports from the test realms. How else do you explain a patch going live that allowed warriors to gain an extra talent point (a completely game breaking issue), when the issue was pointed out on test?

    Movies in 2006

    Pirates 2 looks to have potential, as the original was simply great and definitely had sequalibility I loved Gladiator, and I wish a sequal would work, but frankly it's more of a lone flick rather than a series The daVinci Code was an entertaining read (although very 'light'), and I could...

    Nintendo DS or PSP?

    What are these "little kid games" you speak of? What characterizes them? Please back up that statement or retract it. As far as ugly, I'll give you that - the PSP looks much more slick. But then again, part of the ugliness of the DS is due to its being built like a brick sh!thouse - it's...

    Nintendo DS or PSP?

    The DS has an outstanding lineup right now, that beats the hell out of the PSP lineup at the moment. In the last 6 months or so it really has come into it's own. Castlevania, Mario Kart, Nintendogs, etc. It's bringing some solid stuff to the table to be sure. However, like dguy6789 says...

    Manually Control SpeedStep on 850Mhz Machine

    I believe that I used it just fine with my 866 P3 based speedstep machine, but that chip might be one gen ahead of yours (it has 512k of on die L2 cache and a 133 bus).

    Official Xbox 360? Thread...

    Sounds like a page from Sony's book. The only recent Nintendo console I can think that comes anywhere close to your description was the 64. The cube was not anywhere near as hyped as the PS2 was.

    Official Xbox 360? Thread...

    It doesn't, plain and simple. My folks have a stand alone media center extender (yes, the functionality built into the 360 has been available for a year now - the only thing the 360 adds beyond the obvious gaming is a music visualizer and menus which are as animated as a WMCE05 PCs menus), and...

    And thanks for the laughs from you as well. Nope, nowhere did you explicitly admit to piracy. Nowhere did I state that there aren't some limited legal uses for this software. It's been a good laugh watching you try to dig yourself out of that hole you've put yourself in though by doing...

    PSA for iTunes users: Download the Multi-Plugin for iTunes

    I believe foobar has the ability to use kernel streaming, which bypasses the windows mixer. Supposedly this increases sound quality. I have not tested it myself, so I can't render any judgement.

    Sure, I'll address that. You mean to tell me that you have close to 20,000 mp3s of your own creation (e.g. not ripped from commercial CDs)? You mean to tell me that if you did in fact play in a band, that they'd be stupid enough to record directly into a lossy format rather than going from...

    What other replies? Your asinine personal attacks that followed my exposure of your lack of copyright knowledge (or at the very least your complete disregard for copyright law)? No, I don't think I'll comment on that.

    Wow, a wopping 70CDs! That's probably under 1000 tracks, give or take a few hundred. And nope, nowhere in that other post did you explicitly say those 20,000 files were music. Except of course that a popular way of organizing a large collection of music files is artist/album/track number...

    Hello genius, when you say record an mp3 yourself, for the vast majority of people that means that they will be ripping tracks and encoding them from commercial CDs. So, unless you happen to be in that tiny minority that is in the habit of making their own music and feel the need to share your...

    Wow, you are a thick one. Unless that mp3 that you have recorded is some sort of homemade song, or happens to be an album that both of you own, your friend has absolutely NO legal right to download that song from you. Did you think that copyright law only applied to iTMS files or something...

    new build for video edit/gaming

    You will want large drives, and you will most likely want them in a RAID array (something that does both mirroring and striping). If video editing is your primary goal, you probably should be looking at at least 4 drives with a solid RAID controller. The CPU and 2GBs minimum of RAM should also...

    Sorry, but you weren't exactly subtle when you posted: "Especially when you are on a network at school. At any given time during the day, there are at least 20,000 shared songs. Of course, I only download the legal shared ones from friends who have already given me permission" with some cute...

    ourTunes - Download all music shared from iTunes users

    iTunes does not allow you to save shared songs. You can stream music off of another computer, but the program itself does not alow the direct sharing of files. The program you are using is simply taping into shared network folders (most likely, haven't downloaded it). You are not engaging in...

    YAWoWT: What would you change to your class?

    Priests healing is the most versatile, but as far as HP healed per mana, druids are giving priests a run for their money (primarily due to their strong healing tree and priests utterly gimped healing tree). As far as damage getting near rogues, that is only true if you are heavily specced in...

    Top 500 Supercomputers

    Interesting info! I'd still say that the price of the chips (ebay is a non-factor when purchasing a supercomputer) sounds high compared to something like an opteron. But if the surrounding infrastructure is very expensive, I can see how it's market share is receeding (especially if some of...

    Top 500 Supercomputers

    Is price still an issue though? If the core has remained somewhat stagnant (although I wouldn't call a 500 MHz bump and lvl 3 cache small additions to an already 'low' clock speed chip), has that had a significant impact on price/performance as newer chips have come out? Or has Intel been...

    Top 500 Supercomputers

    I'm willing to bet that a significant part of that drop in usage is financial based. Itanium was a fairly big jump in processor architecture vs. the handholding backwards compatibility aimed x64 stuff. As a jump, many people didn't have the ability to completely change over, and less people...

    There is hope for AGP !

    SATA II does very little for current hard drives, dual channel is available in AGP boards, the chip difference is not particularly great at this point. For instance, I currently have a 6800GT on an overclocked 2.25GHz Athlon XP setup. If I were to upgrade, I'd go for a Athlon 64 AGP setup...

    Over 200 Xbox games will work on the Xbox 360. And all will have FSAA and be 720p or 1080i.

    I believe the Sega Saturn had BC (it did have a cartridge port IIRC), and don't forget all the portable consoles (e.g. handhelds). Some would say that the backwards compatibility of most of the gameboy line (and the DS, although it ditched non-GBA BC) was a significant factor in its dominance...
