PCI/SATA question

I am planning on setting up a raid array, and I currently have 4 matched SATA hard drives. However, my motherboard does not support SATA and it only has PCI 32 bit/33 Mhz slots. I am planning on buying this card. However, I don't know what type of performance hits I will take with everything...

Diamond Size

Standard proposal size is around 1ct. But it all depends how much money you want to spend. If your shopping, a lot of jewelers close out stock on ebay and you can get some pretty good prices there.

Same Sex Marriages took place in S.F. against laws!

Many people are making arguments that what happened in san francisco was wrong because they broke the law (in a non-violent fashion). I know of several other people throughout history that broke "laws" in a completely non-violent way as well. Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, Ghandi all broke...

5.25" USB 2.0 enclosure@newegg $32.99 shipped

One thing to watch out for with this is that it is not self-powered; i.e., you need to plug it in. Most other USB 2.0 enclosures don't require that.

Best Bars/Clubs in Las Vegas?

If the tequila sucks, then one should down it like a shot. Surely the only purpose is becoming inebriated. However, with good tequila, sipping is required. And, Patron is good tequila.

A good current topic for a chemistry honors project?

I think that the statement atoms=chem is not really true. Chemistry studies the bonds between atoms and how they change. Physics studies the composition of atoms. I grant that there is clearly interaction between the two fields, but fusion is primarily a physics topic. It doesn't involve the...

I hope for the patron's sake that you didn't do shots of it. Sip, man.

Dude, i hate to be the spell-checking PITA, but it's spelled fusion. Besides, fusion really has very little to do with chem. It would make a good physics honors project though.

Really bizarre red hat problem

Possible n00b question below: I bought red hat 9 for dummies, which came with two cds (which have red hat 9 on them). I tried to boot from them to install red hat, but I had no luck. I checked to see if I could boot from a win2k cd and a red hat 8 cd. I could boot from both. So, I thought...
