What's a good, cheap camera?

Do you want a professional grade camera? Something light and portable? Does it need to shoot video too? Are high resolution pictures important? Do you do a lot of action shots? (fast moving objects). If you are looking for something better than an iPhone, which iPhone? 3,4,4S,5,5C,6,6S...

anyone have the Gigabyte GA-K8VT800M?

Got the 2x512 Corsair value select (CAS 2.5). Works great with games, but have to set the memory speed to 400 with Utility manager otherwise at startup is runs at 333 speed. There doesn't seem to be any BIOS setting for mem bus speed. Running F6 version on the BIOS. Overclocking is not great...

Which is the the more dangerous psychopath: The Super State or the Enterprise?

People put in the decision making spot, will not always make decisions based on the greater good, but rather the immediate gratification that can be gained for an individual, or small group. To anthropomorphise the corporation, is to continue to view it as a human, and expect it to react as a...

anyone have the Gigabyte GA-K8VT800M?

Have had the GA-K8VT800M for 3 weeks now, running 2x256 Corsair XMS 3200LL. Works fine, but not a great overclocker. Waiting on 2x512 Corsair Value Select (Cas2.5), will let you know how it works.

Need help cleaning up my case *warning, it is a mess*

CaseDepot has a 145.00 server case. C5690B has all your drives on one side, and your MB on the other side. With good cable routing, you should have a clean arrangement, and not have to buy new drives. If it was mine, there would be 2 choices: 1. Save up, and build another computer with all...

Magnesium or Titanium?

Gonzo is right, the only worry with magnesium is if it is part of another fire. Once it starts burning, it is almost impossible to put out. Burning magnesium from an aircraft, on a carrier, is easier to push over the side than to put out. You can watch it continue to burn while it sinks!

Magnesium or Titanium?

Found a Panasonic Propaganda link about Toughbook T1, believe what you want, I've used an older 71 series for 4 years, and it never died, but it did look like it had been dragged a few miles down a dirt road! http://www.panasonic.com/computer/notebook/pdf/intsol042303.pdf

Magnesium or Titanium?

Look at Apple, and Panasonic (Toughbook series). Apple-Titianium, Panasonic-Magnesium. These are the two that come to mind. Unfortunately they are different OS machines, so the comparison is not so good. The Toughbooks are expensive, but they have a total shock/durability value that Apple...

YACT: What is your opinion of the Saab 9-3 and 9-5?

SAAB's are an aquired taste, like beer. If you like it, and can afford it, get it. They have a good quality reputation, and you won't see 40 in a parking lot that look just like yours. For me, I don't like the styling, but that is subjective, and you seem to be past that. Have fun, and...

starting living in NY

Coleman makes great inflatable camping gear, couches/chairs. A good queen size inflatable mattress works great (unless your GF/BF is fat).

wedding invitations

Depends on how many gifts you want. Why do we have spring weddings? Thats when people have money for gifts again! Get married a week before Christmas, and see how you make out. 6 months: People may forget. Usually for massive ceremonies. 3 months: For big shindigs that need planning time...

What kind of beer do you suggest?

Warsteiner, strong taste, no bad aftertaste. Tiger, only if you are in Asian countries, very smooth and drinkable. Iron City, scare your friends by pouring it in a glass. (drink at your own risk) Coors Winterfest, when available, dog will sleep in your mouth :( Bass, Harp, Pils, all good for a...
