    what is windows 7

    From what I've read from users of the beta, the driver issues are fixed and hardware works great (only exception I've heard is regarding a certain Creative branded sound card). Anything is better than Vista, and so far it looks as if Windows 7 could finally be the real successor to XP. You...

    what is windows 7

    He's correct, I watched CES 2009 with Ballmer introducing Windows 7. The beta is already available to certain MSDN/Connect users, and will be available to the public tomorrow

    Israel's attack on Gaza, your views?

    They have both been in the wrong, but I lean towards the belief that Israel has been in the wrong most often. They treat the Palestinians like crap, so it's no wonder that they're going to be treated like crap in return. I just hope we don't get involved (even though we technically are; we...

    America, breaking up??!!!!

    I could see this happening as well, but I don't see any large southern alliances.. I could see Texas going back to becoming it's own country once again. It's one of the few states that is faring quite well in this recession However the government would have to lose total control in order for...

    GeForce 9400GT. Is this good?

    The 8-series is still a fine set of cards.. very few differences from the 8 and 9 series. An 8600GT can handle COD4 on pretty decent settings, and Crysis on medium/low at pretty good framerates

    Protect your software

    When it comes to viruses like that there's nearly no point in wasting time salvaging.. reformatting can be quite fun at times. I don't like the idea of putting all files into one RAR archive, but instead backing them up onto an external hard drive.. they're getting cheaper nowadays

    Thoughts on COD5

    The Medicine, The Doctor...They DON'T HELP..

    Well I intend on becoming a doctor, so obviously I only have good things to say about the majority of them. Some people question their salaries, but as I'm going through college, and soon (hopefully) medical school and residency, I see that giving up 12 years of your life for schooling isn't...

    EA joining Steam and releasing there games DRM free.

    I'm just waiting for Crysis Warhead to go DRM free.. once that happens, I'm probably going to have to uninstall Gears of War or the original Crysis to play it heh

    Free Software Poll 4: Email Clients

    I don't really see a need for email clients.. I just go directly to gmail or yahoo's mail and that's it. However I imagine that if I were to choose, I would go with Thunderbird because I've never heard of the other two choices

    Game systems

    360 for sure. Everyone I know who owns a Wii is regretting their purchase and find that most games they have bought lack replay value. Wii Sports, Mario Kart Wii, and SSBB are the only games that are played (and they are all Nintendo titles, not third parties). If Wii doesn't get big hits...

    Thoughts on COD5

    Carbon copy of COD4 with different skins, vehicles, and additional physics for fire. But I still bought it (only because I got it for $15 after eBay gift cards) I don't have too high hopes for COD6.. what could they possibly add to modern warfare? A few more guns? Better graphics? We'll have...

    Do Larger HDD's Have Higher Failure Rates?

    I currently have two external hard drives, both Seagates (160 GB, 320 GB). I've owned the 160 for two years and the 320 for one year. I'm considering buying this 1 TB drive from Newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136321 so I can consolidate my data onto one...

    Guitar Hero World Tour Vs Rock Band (1 or 2)

    RB2 has a nice new drum set.. GHWT has drums that take getting used to.. three drums and two cymbals. I prefer RB2 just because it contains RB1 and downloaded tracks as well
