So it's gotten to the point where I seriously need to clean up my place and I can no longer hold onto these items.

About 5 years ago I had the idea of building my parents a...

Had this happen to me before. The solution is, boot up with a Windows XP disk and format it using that. If you don't want to do that, I think plugging the hard drive into any PC and formatting it...

lol, I remember when I learned that in Discrete Mathematics II. The way my textbook and professor taught it was as if we were "fighting a demon" or something.

Man... that's just plain evil.

lol, I've broken off at least half of the blades on my computer's fan. Super glue works :D.

Breaking off another blade to fix it seems like a retarded idea, and I agree, since the fan didn't come...

This video has an amazing ability for putting me to sleep.

How is it the employees fault that both these manufacturers happened to make almost the same adaptor? You have no idea what the drives are being used for. The drives are frequently taken on location...

Got I hate designers that don't do any research first...

Anyway, my dad has several external harddrives for work (like around 20) ranging from early 2004 to pretty much now. All the earlier ones...

Just to clarify, you're still talking about these two, right? lol

Anything more is...

I have the revision 2 G15 (a.k.a. the only one you can buy today), and it's pretty decent. The LCD is nice for time or for monitoring CPU/RAM usage during the game.

The only thing I don't really...

Is microcenter a US-only company? I don't think I've ever seen one here (Canada) before.

Also, I've narrowed it down to two video cards to put in the thing. Every 8800 GTX/GTS I find online for...

After looking over this again, I think you're right; AMD is the way to go. I'm going to look more into this.

Ya, it's a PCIe one. The board even supports SLI :o.

The only thing I'm more impressed by is the presence of SATA ports on my dell motherboard from early 2003. Well, when it comes to crappy old...

Hmm, I'll have to see what type of PSU his old computer has. I'm pretty sure it's one of those ones that can switch between AMD and Intel. May or may not be crappy.

The harddrive he was gonna use...

Hmm, perhaps AMD would be a better option then. There is basically zero chance of upgrading what he's got.

Here are his current specs:

AMD Athlon x64 Socket 939 Single Core at 2.2 GHz
2 GB...

Ya, I was thinking maybe a 9800 GT or something like that. I've been using an 8800 GTS since mid-2007 (probably the most value I've gotten out of any computer component ever), and I've yet to...

So, as the title says, my friend wants to buy a new computer for when Civ V comes out, and he's asked me to help him find parts for one. Unfortunately, I haven't really been paying much attention to...

I don't think so. I was able to easily put a microATX AMD socket 939 board into my old Dell 4600 case a while back.

Ask if he also happens to be a rich Nigerian prince who is also by chance a relative of yours ;).

What I liked about the Windows Mobile one was that you didn't have to use the standard "graffiti" methods that Palm pretty much invented. You could write the letters normally (capital or lower case)...

I think Mac OS 9 might be one of the worst things ever created in the history of man kind (aside from Windows ME of course).

I had a green one of those pieces of **** for about 7 years. Terrible...

Ya I know, hence why I hate capacitive touch screens ;)

Just ever doing typing is a pain in the ass though. Trying to just go to a website sometimes is a nightmare.

So recently I was trying to use MSN to talk to a friend on my HTC Magic, and I came to realize that it's a major pain in the ass.

I used to own a Dell x50v a while back, and with the stylus and...

I own an 800 MHz G4 iBook (the version directly after this one), and it's really friggin slow.

There is no way in hell you'll be able to watch HD movies (I think the thing only has a 32 MB Radeon...

I think the iPod Touch 2G has a much faster processor (same as the 3GS).

I used to have a 3GS (until some douche stole it), and it was quite noticeably more smooth than the 3G.
