    laptop

    I do believe the Turion based laptops are running rather neck and neck with Centrino based systems when dealing with wattage. It's the traditional processor based AMD laptops you want to stay away from, like Semprons and such. The Turions are actually supposed to be quite nice all round vs...

    Vista Beta 2 available for download

    As I am understanding it now, XP drivers will work for most hardware but you gotta have it there when you install since Vista doesn't have it.

    Vista Beta 2 available for download

    Good luck at getting anything to work. Every single network card we have thrown at this thing will not work and nearly everyone of them is natively supported by XP. I have no idea what the deal is there, but you get 15 days to activate. Without a freakin' network card that the POS OS actually...

    AMD-ATI Merger Looks Likely

    From my understanding on the procs out there right now is the real issue with Intel is the number of pipelines involved. With the increase in these the performance takes an inherent hit. Pumping up the core speed has little overall impact. Right now Intel procs, P4's and Celery's have 20 (I...

    Happy Day

    What a day. Not only did a $9000 deal go through for computers but I also found out today that my last and final payment for this company is this month. I had just assumed it was a three year contract all along but it turns out that it was only a 33 month contract to purchase the company thus...

    New car

    Yeah. My wife kept trying to tell me it was the latest Geo Metro. She had the hardest time understanding that it 'replaced' the Geo. It's an 93' Caprice. Old, but reliable.

    New car

    It replaced the Chevy Caprice V8 5 gallons to the mile POS. He got the V6 model, jet black. It goes in tomorrow to get a clear coating. Something like a grand, give or take a few bucks...must be nice.

    New car

    I got pretty tired of stuffin $20 bills down the gas tank so I went out and invested in a four banger. Got a 06 Chevy Aveo. With the stick shift this thing does absolutely great. With only an 11 gallon tank, I drove from Coos Bay to Portland on a half a tank and it actually drives fairly decent...

    define computer speak?

    Let's not forget a common yet not very often thought of thing....static discharge. By chance does your system sit on the carpet? Could be it's a grounding within the system itself and thus its being discharged safely enough. If it is sitting on carpet, then get it up and off it by using some...

    I'm running IE 7 beta 2 preveiw

    Remember winks, the beta has a lot of debug code written into it. This will mostly be removed upon final release. IE7 is using about 30-50MB depending on how many tabs you have but then again Firefox does eat a bit up with multiple tabs, about 35MB with six or seven tabs, just not nearly as...
