  1. No it has nothing to do with power or how big it is. It has to do with them using off brand parts of less quality. I will admit I a bit of a snob. I have built all my PCs since 89
  2. So it is Friday and the rain has left us for now. So is there anything going on in C-Bus tonight?

    I just did not know what it meant.
  4. Some NAS solutions http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0329164 http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0334253 A coworker has this one. He loves it. You would need to put your own drives in it. (They must match) http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0245672
  5. Don't forget EISA VLB PCI 64 PCI X

  10. Buy a NAS, set it to RAID 1 and sleep a little better at night. In the end, it is all human made, so it will all fail sooner or later. Tradition HD still is the best solution. Flash drives have a measurable shelf life. They can only be written too so many times. Good backups are so important. Personally I have my files server at home (Raid 1) and I have a NAS at a friends house I back up to again set to RAID 1.
  11. AGP really is dead too. Here are a few I MicroCenter. Price is a little high, but that happens when ya go shopping for old parts. http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0326592 http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0317098
  12. If you are sure you have it, get AGP. IF it is PCI-E get that PCI is dead

    Über is German. Loosly translated it means Super or Great
  14. Had a similar story. Was being dumb and 18 on Maple Ave in Zanesville back before they made cruising a crime. I was driving at night, no light, and went out the driver window to pass a sprite to a cutie in a mustang, while moving. Did not know the Sheriff was behind me When I did finally see him (about a mile later) behind me, I pulled over. he had me out the car and giving me all kinds of shit. Half way through all that some folks down on Maple decided to drag race just then. He looked at them taking off and told me to go home and I was not allowed back on maple for the rest of the weekend. The second time I later that year I was coming home from cat fishing about 2 in the AM with a friend and was racing him down 93. I get to the first exit to Roseville and hauling all kinds of ass, just about then my radar detector lights up like a x-mas tree. I see his gumballs come on and he is looking them up to swing around. I thought he was going to go after the guy because he was behind me but going almost as fast. No he passes the guy, comes after me. I pull over and the first thing he said was "How in the hell did you get a ford escort up to 93 mph?" I was all like "Ummmm played with the timing". He looked at the fish in the cooler, and made sure I had not been drinking and let me go, as he was hunting drunks that night.
  15. They will replace the whole keyboard. Should be one screw and a ribbon cable. The connection is a friction connection and easy to break. Should not be an issue for someone with common sense, but since that is rare, and they don't know you, it is reasonable for them to request it be sent in. What I don't get is why they can't send the keyboard to Geek Squad and they do the swap while you wait.

    I fully admit I am crazy, but I like to think I am crazy in a good way

    What did I ever do to you?
  18. My commute is 17 miles into downtown from Polaris. Most days it takes me 50 - 70 min to get home because most in c-bus cannot drive.
  19. I may. May be fun, Z-Vill and Duncan Falls is my old stomping grounds. I have not really done anything down there in years except pass through on the way to the farm.
