Light buld replacement that doesn't suck

I saw those in the paper. Do you know what the warranty is and if they're UL listed? Nothing on the page about that. (I just emailed them). Thanks. God Bless.

Gemstar Guide Plus: has anyone either been able OR unable to download new listings?

I too got a similar......condescending intelligence-insulting reply: --------------------------------- >"...the warranty at no time covered software, it was for the >video card or TV tuner only." *I was not implying that the warranty did cover software. The point is if your product is still...

Gemstar Guide Plus: has anyone either been able OR unable to download new listings?

After submitting the form at the AMD website, this is shown on the page: tech.support[at]amd.com . So that may save others from having to fill out a "life history" on the form.

Gemstar Guide Plus: has anyone either been able OR unable to download new listings?

Thanks. Is "Gemstar" still on the boxes of new ATI AIW cards? Mine is old, AIW 9800 Pro. ATI/AMD is still making video cards, and AIW and TV tuner cards, are they not? At the very least many thousands are still being sold each day. So what do those cards use in place of GuidePlus or...

Thanks for the info. Did you happen to ask Rovi/ATI just WTF millions of users are supposed to use now? How did you write them, email address?

Samsung SpinPoint F4 320GB 16MB comparable to SSD

I know most of you on this thread hate me, so let's put things in perspective for at least just a moment, to remember what's really important instead of trivial petty bickering on unimportant things. I lost my Dad yesterday. We could not have been closer. This is INCREDIBLY difficult...

HA! That's hilarious. :D :D "In other words, Godwin put forth the sarcastic observation that, given enough time, all discussionsregardless of topic or scopeinevitably end up being about Hitler and the Nazis." Yeah it wouldn't surprise me. It's not so "sarcastic" either, it's really...

That's ok, some people are just too ignorant to comprehend plain English; and like I said, read only what they want to read and ignore everything else. So it's pointless. If certain people would READ ALL of what I have typed countless times, they would see no such things were ever said. So...

Thanks, I understand. ;) Of course it's worth something. Like I said, I'm open minded and realize anyone can learn something from any other. Everyone has something to offer. I post in spurts. :) There's nothing wrong with being "annoyed", or even disagreeing with someone or being...

Only the person running the PassMark test sees the breakdown, I can't say why they didn't include it. Like PCMark et al, the overall PM score they give (called "Disk Mark") is an aggregate of 3 separate tests. Pseudo quote: Please see post #192.

Do you guys ever read posts, or just read what you want to see? :confused: No, I never said that. What I said, (for about the FIFTH...and FINAL time now), was: ".....so I don't think anyone can say that any SSD will beat the fastest HD, in a benchmark suite that takes other tests into...

I do, it would seem you don't. ;) Yes, because if you would check the link you'll see what I'm talking about. The target HD is above an Intel SSD. No, if you would have read all of my post, you would see this: "......such as the PassMark test which is Read, Write, and, Random Seek R+W."...

Access times alone are not the tell-all of storage device performance. If they were, then all of them would be ahead of all the HD's at testing sites, and, they are not. That speaks for itself and cannot be denied. Unless you think they're lying (and why would they). Then how, why, does it...

The 322GJ is also ahead of an Intel SSD. So why would you want a slower SSD over that of a faster HD? I can understand getting a SSD that's faster, but not one that's slower.
