    **Official eMachines M68xx Thread**

    " Just saw the best buy advertisement for $250 off this puppy. Now I'm pissed. I bought one last week. Does BB have any type of price guarantee? Also, I have a bad pixel. Is this something I'll have to live with?" I think BB has a 14 day price guarantee, so you can go back and get the lower...

    Israel confirms Golan expansion

    1. It was Likud that gave back ALL of the Sinai...even though at least 20-30% of the Sinai can be considered part of Ancient Biblical Israel. It was Likud that negotiated peace with Jordan...even though *Greater Israel* of yore extended to BOTH sides of the Jordan and well beyond the current...

    Israel confirms Golan expansion

    Exactly. The point being.. Israel offered/sugested. an exchange of land for peace. Egypt, after only around 10 years, actually took them up on the offer. ...and they negotiated the entire Sinai Peninsula back. Egypt basically refused to take the Gaza Strip back. Now, after nearly two generations...

    Israel confirms Golan expansion

    There is some beautiful geology on the Golan....You still have to stick to posted paths and roads though because there are still thousands of undetonated, undiscovered mines from when Syria held the Golan. It's pretty rugged terrain. The Syrian pillboxes overlooking the Israeli farmland and Sea...

    Pictures of American Soldiers in Iran Aiding Earthquake Victims

    I had a chance to visit Iran a few weeks after 9/11. During my stay there I visited the Bam Citadel. It really was an extraordinary city...about a kilometer square in size, the existing enclosed city is actually quite a bit smaller than the city at it's zenith about 1000-1200 years ago, if...

    Do you believe that Israel is America's friend??

    Wow. Quite a discussion here!! I'm going to ramble a little, so please bear with me. 1. Isral/ the Jews have been *demonized* throughout the Middle East and to lesser extent, Europe and Russia for hundreds of years. The fear that Jews were *overrunning* Palestine in the 30's put virtualy the...

    A64 3200 or Opteron 144?

    Where I come in on this, and why I wanted others' opinions is...Opteron boards can run AFX's...Heck.. AFX's basicaly ARE Opterons. So, by getting a 144 I figure I would save money now by purchasing 2 grades below top of the line and be able to upgrade in 6-9 months to a 148 )FX51) when it comes...

    emachines 2600+ 80gb 256mb gforce $499 @ costco

    As far as I know, the Athlon based eMachines all use nForce2 based motherboards. So, they are all GeForce4 MX derivatives. My gues is the T6000 uses an nForce150 A64 board.... mark-

    Bought an AMD64 machine today, worth it?

    Actually... 1149 isn't that bad a deal. It's very competitive with the Systemax price for several reasons 1. 9600 video card as opposed to 9200 2. PC3200 memory as opposed to PC2700 3. 160GB 7200 RPM drive w/ 8 megs cache compared to 80GB 7200 drive (unknown cache on that one. The ONLY...

    Who here has Road Runner for an ISP? Oh boy..

    ver 5 years with RR here. While it can be annoying when they ask you to restart your PC and your modem...and I've already done that, AND it gets annoying when they say "We don't support home networks! You need to connect your PC directly to the mode!" I just say.. "OK it's connected directly to...

    At least 5 Dead 60 Injured in Suicide Bombing in Tel Aviv

    Actually, I have no doubt of these statistics. The arab armies have tended to be quite large...just poorly trained and led by mostly incompetents. For instance, in 67, I think Israel lost something like 500 soldiers compared to around 10,000 Egyptian soldiers lone! Tactics and excellent...

    At least 5 Dead 60 Injured in Suicide Bombing in Tel Aviv

    Actually, the Israelis tried for 20 years AFTER winning the West Bank, Gaza and Sinai, to negotiate land for peace. After 20+ years of repeated attempts to find SOMEBODY to negotiate with it is no surprise that Israel has seemingly given up on land for peace. Heck, even the negotiations/...

    At least 5 Dead 60 Injured in Suicide Bombing in Tel Aviv

    Thank goodness that is unlikely to happen. The sad fact is the Arabs have always treated the Palestinians like dirt. Worse by far than the Israelis until the Intefadeh. By the Palestinians misguided violence they do themselves even greater harm. The few violent Palestinians make the rest suffer...

    At least 5 Dead 60 Injured in Suicide Bombing in Tel Aviv

    And it is only because of the Arabs unwillingness to negotiate peacefully that Israel has had to resort to harsh responses. Yes, we can go on and on..further and further back in history to blame one side or the other, but it boils down to one side or the others' unwillingness to negotiate...

    At least 5 Dead 60 Injured in Suicide Bombing in Tel Aviv

    Actually, I hear about it on the news here in US every time it happens or nearly so. Is it described in as high detail as the suicide bombings? No. But it IS mentioned on the news. So don't try to claim that we never hear about the suffering of the Palestinians.

    At least 5 Dead 60 Injured in Suicide Bombing in Tel Aviv

    Funny youshould mention that. When Israel captured the West Bank and Gaza in 67 that is exactly what they did. It was not until the late 80's, with the Intefadeh, and associated violence that Israel pulled back from the actual infrastructure improvement and education. It was between 67 and the...

    At least 5 Dead 60 Injured in Suicide Bombing in Tel Aviv

    Israel is the defacto government in Israel. Israel is the defacto government of the West Bank and Gaza until such time as a legitimate representative of those territories is ready to negotiate for a peaceful solution. So far there has been none. Until that time, Israel is the defacto government...

    China's Military: Scared?

    Actually, Israel doesn't seel US milspec hardware to China. They sell Israeli developed/designed milspec hardware and plans to China....and certainly NOT the latest technologies. Heck, they are selling the Lavi jet plans/technology to China for goodness sake! That plane was developed almost 20...

    China's Military: Scared?

    China's Military: Scared?

    Look at history. Do you think the British or Spanish or Roman or (place empire name here)thought their reign as the dominant power would end? NO! Yet they did. Now, in general, empires lifespans have shortened over the millenia....This isn't always the case.. Alexander's empire lasted about...

    Why are Europeans so offended by US patriotism?

    In my visits to Europe (mainly Switzerland, Germany and France, admittedly, one thing I've noticed is that Europeans generalize about Americans every bit as much as Americans generalize about them. As for countries having their faults... Countries are made up of people. People are NOT perfect...

    Why are Europeans so offended by US patriotism?

    Indeed. Blanket statements are a tad disingenuous. To say *Europeans or Americans* feel this way or that way or have this or that attitude is making a blanket statement. Yes, perhaps some feel a certain way, but others do not. To say Americans are too America-centric is making a blanket...

    Why are Europeans so offended by US patriotism?

    Actually, I think Israel is considered the Universal Bogeyman right now. The Arab/Muslim countries have done a good job at promoting their agenda of excising Israel from the global community. Since they couldn't do it by war they are attempting to do it politically. The UNHRC? a year or so ago...
