Cheap SFF for PVR

I have been looking for a good HTPC case as well, although our selection here in Canada isn't as good. The Coolermaster is a nice one, as is the Athenatech, but I also found this case which is a pretty good price and kind of funky looking, but it won't fit into an entertainlment centre as it's...

SFF PCI Expansion Slots

Or go with the Extigy, although I think the wireless USB would be the cheaper option. If you go with the Audigy Platinum, then you will want a Soltek, as they are the only ones that I know of that have two 5.25" bays.

Best A64 SFF Case/ Barebone

Soltek EQ3801-300. I think it was here on Anandtech that there was a very good review on it. Haven't bothered to look where I found it, but you should be able to find it easily with Google, as that's how I found it.

Poll: Do you use a Palm or PocketPC variant?

Didn't see Linux as an option. I use a Sharp Zaurus, although I have used both Windows CE (and later, Pocket PC) and PalmOS previously.

What class of ATOT do you belong to? *Poll*

No way to tell how long us old-timers have really been around. It was easily '95 or earlier, I can't remember, except that I moved out of that apartment in '95, so I've been around at least that long. This board was launched in October of '99, so nobody will appear to have been from before...

POLL: Could you under ANY circumstances ever envision yourself committing murder?

Do anything to my wife or kids and you'll find out what I'm really made of. (Seriously)

I think you mean "The Pianist" The Piano was set in New Zealand and you get to see Harvey Keitel's package. That scarred me for a long time. Nice to see some of the older crowd out to educate the young'ns that there were good war movies made more than a few years ago. Band of Brothers was...

I just locked down a teenagers computer :)

There was no internet when I was 13. There are other ways to get porn. Yeah, it means he'll have to be more resourceful, but that's a good thing. If he still figures out his way to the porn now, then he deserves to have a little peek. He's obviously a bright kid.

"Sikh student detained by Secret Service"

This sh!t is nothing new. This was going on BEFORE 9/11, just no to this degree. I had to wait for two and a half hours for my wife WHO WAS ACCOMPANYING ME, to get through customs at an international airport. All because I'm an American and she is South Asian.

Hit and run :(

I was sitting in a parked vehicle when a lady backed into me and drove off. Called 911 immediately with her license plate number and they met up with her just as she was getting home. I wouldn't have minded the damage to the car, but my wife was 5 months pregnant at the time and sitting in...

What is the difference between a taco and a burrito?

Tacos hurt if you don't chew them properly. Burritos just block your airway.

What is Pi?

I'll never forget the 3rd Rock episode where John Lithgow stands up and cheers at a football game: "Pi, Pi, that's our sign 3-point-1-4-1-5-9"
