  1. I know Honda of Troy, OH had a brand new F4i up to end of last season. it was blue with black. I can't remember how much they were asking, but it may be a good deal if they still have it. looks like they still have it: http://www.hondapowersportsoftroy.com/new_vehicle_detail.asp?sid=03957483X1K20K2010J8I35I58JPMQ1884R0&veh=23727&pov=1441500
  2. A+ certification won't hurt, but i'm not really sure how much it helps, although i know some companies do require it. we do not where i work, and the people who have had A+ certs that have worked for me have almost always been worthless, so i guess i'm biased. Cisco cert (CCNA) on the other hand is way better. Microsoft certified systems engineer MCSE is also a bit better than A+. If you really want an edge though, VMware certs are the way to go. Unfortunately you need a $4,000 weeklong class, and experiance on the job before you take the test for like $300. So unless your company's going to pay for it, kind of steep. When I talk to people at career fairs or interview people, I look for the degree, then ask experience questions based around troubleshooting and problem solving. have good examples of this for your interview and it will help you land your job. when you get asked "what do you do when you have a problem with your coputer" the answer "i usually call the sudent help desk" is not the right answer yeah, i got that from a comp sci student at Bowling Greene.
  3. Goetta is amazing, but if you won't try it - just more for me. I too asked for it in Seattle once, so i'm familiar with that look. wait... it's not?
  4. what he said - since it's not an american production model (and right hand drive) you'd have to get it crash tested for insurance purposes. i've seen a couple monaro front ends on GTO's and i like them. much more aggressive.
  5. you know what makes me mad about G8s? I'm going to tell you 'cause it's the internet and I can: you can ONLY get a manual on the GXP, but they have manuals in Australia in all the cars that share the chasis. I really like the G8, but dont want the (what was) the 40K version. a G8 GT manual would have been perfect.
  6. HSV series holdens are sick. actually the Ford Falcon down there has a pretty sick model as well. one of the things i loved about being in sydney was seeing these awesome V8 UTEs, and Sport sedans all over the place. (with the ocasional m3, GTR, and supra)
  7. Majorgeeks is good, http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php points to CNET though. If you did a destructive reinstall I dont think those scareware (vundo) viruses will survive. you can install malwarebytes to another computer copy the directory to a flash drive and run it from there, if i'm not mistaken. good luck.
  8. i'm really excited about the electric sportbike. racing brings inovation. right now it only has a 39 mile range, but give them a few years to inovate and I'm confident we'll eventually see 100-110. at that point it'll be close to an gas motorcycle. I also think we'll see electric bikes like this way before cars.
  9. couple things to try: I assume this is a vista machine click the start menu -> type CMD in the search and hit enter type "ipconfig" no quotes if you get something like this your NIC is installed: Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : yourdns.net IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.127 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.254
  10. I would LOVE to have that 848 Dark. not only am I a sucker for the 848, but $1000 off AND a sick color? delicious
  11. I may be able to help you out. so when you say "the internet doesnt work" what do you mean? you can IM me on AIM X1oft. ***edit*** or you can PM me or Post here... doesnt matter to me.
  12. thats about when i picked up my bike and put about 2200 miles on it. I think i put a few hundred on my previous before i sold it this summer as well. that's more than i've put on in any season so far I think. can't wait till next season though. 10 more weeks!
  13. Gray. i think it'll accent well with the gray RSV, and gray above the headlights and tail sections. Actually i'm seriously considering that jacket myself.
  14. White, maybe with a bit of pearl to it, but not neccessary. I love solid white bikes where the frame, wheels, etc give it heavy contrast.
  15. Can't you do that at the BMV as well? i'm to lazy to try to navigate the ohio bmv site to find the link, but i'd bet thaey would know.
  16. M1911 45 if it's a pistol or maybe generic pump action shotgun, 12 ga.

    New Ohio Plate.

    I've always just transfered my plates from vehicle to vehicle. My car's plates have been on 4 cars since 2001, and my bike plates have been on both my bikes. looks like i'll be doing the same for my bike.
  18. A robot that pushes keys on yoru keyboard so you can nap but still sound like you're typing. ftw
  19. That's absolutely horrible. so did the passenger recover?
  20. Or wet shoes. I duno...i've been able to pee standing up for a while, I think I'd like to know what it's like to have bewbs now... j/k
  21. I think that article was more of a what is the top paying undergrad degrees. lawers, doctors, pharmacists, masters in engineering etc wouldn't be included.
  22. http://money.cnn.com/2009/07/24/news/economy/highest_starting_salaries/index.htm?postversion=2009072404 saw this article and thought about this thread. interesting how almost all of the top 15 highest paying degrees are in engineering except comp sci at #5 and actuarial science at #12 (wtf is that?)
  23. Joes Cycle shop in dayton. http://www.joescycleshop.net/
  24. when i got my first bike (gs500F) I quoted a new bike vs a two year old bike and hte cost difference was rediculous. ~380 a year for new vs <100 for 2 year old bike. was he only quoting a new one?
