  1. yep harddrive , what the hell would I do with 1 terra ram ?

    That's what I was wondering! It would be cool to say that you have a system with 1 TB of ram though! Now just to find a purpose for it.... Just imagine the electric bill to power tha ram alone, not to mention the rest of the system!

    Sorry if I'm turning geek-ish on ya! :lol:

  2. shit , 1 terrabyte of memory and on broadband. hightech redneck mr. porter :)

    Holy sheetz! I'm hoping you mean 1 TB hard drive, not RAM!

    I do find it interesting that they had free wifi! I know it was discussed in Newark, but didn't gain any steam as of yet. Dublin has a subscription based service, city-wide. I've also read about some other public wifi systems shutting down, due to cost issues.

  3. Both that I curretly own, which are the only 2 that I've ever owned!

    The Ninja 250 because it's so light, and even though it lacks power (by a lot) it's fun to ride, not to mention a consistant 60+ MPG!!!

    I like the Interceptor because you just don't see many old sportbikes anymore, I've always liked the V4's from the sidelines, and even more now that I have one, and it has more power than the 250! I have a feeling that I'd like it even more with some suspension work!

  4. just called canon... will be trading my rebel for a rebel xs for 350

    Digital Rebel, or film Rebel?

    Opps, I see it now, I didn't read all the way through.... :nono:

    I think I gave the Typing Cat grief over that one day, and now I FAIL..... :lol:

  5. I'm a professional photographer by trade. Point and shoots, plus the hybrid type cameras, really are crap. They do what they do well, which is fit in your pocket. I shoot Nikon gear. That said, I'd suggest Canon or Sony for the entry level. Nikon for the higher levels. PM if you want my opinions why. Cheers-

    See what I mean about brand loyalty?

    There are areas that Nikons are better, but for my purposes, personal, prosumer use, Canon is good, all around.

    Nikon? Really? Have you been :drink::lol:

    Please don't turn this into a N vs C battle though, I'm just messin!!!

  6. Um, I think the balls from a pinball machine work rather well.

    I have watched somebody kick the side mirror off a car.

    Also saw a person stab out the headlights of a car at night with a WWII bayonet. Let them try to get home without being pulled over for DUI with no headlights.

    :lol:

    I would thing the ball bearings out of many of the sealed bearings used in most cars these days woudl work fine! I know where I can get a few (hundred over a short period of time) of those!

    Also, you could go to the toy aisle and buy some Magnetix, or Magnext (whatever they're calling them now) as they have steel balls in them that are close to 1/2 inch diameter.

  7. I say go buy a canon G11 it's pocket sized and it has a beautiful auto feature and if you want to spend the time to learn how to properly use it the options are still there. Did I mention this is all in a pocket sized configuration? And you will not have to worry about 500 different lens options.

    The 500 lens options is what I like the most about the SLR! There is no P&S out there that can cover the focal length of 2 good zooms at nearly the same level. I often find a need to shoot in low light, and the 2.8 aperature of my 2 most used zooms, or my cheap-o 50mm f/1.8 cannot be compared to any P&S.

    That said, they HAVE come a long way with the P&S cameras, and they do get usable shots that used to only be attainable with a SLR..... Still prefer my SLR for the control though.

    One thing to do might be get a decent point and shoot, and learn about all the settings, and what they do, and how they effect the pictures you take, then if you want an SLR, you'll still have use for the P&S for keeping with you when you don't want to carry the SLR (riding the bike?) I'm still wanting a good P&S to keep with me, as I would take MANY more shots than I do now, due to the burden of the size and weight of the SLR.

  8. more roaming

    Not that bored! Maybe I'll look at some of those sometime....

  9. What do you mean? lol to like throw at fucktards?

    Fixed!

    I had a near incident in a parking lot at Easton Sunday. The lady looked at me as if she couldn't believe I pulled into that parking place, when she was trying to do the same thing to me! In hindsight, I was getting grumpy (who me? Never) and ready to get the whole cell phone incident over with (long story, but it was not resolved completely, and still isn't) and I WAS out of line, and not acting the way I should have been.
