    There once was a pie, who was very happy because he was a pumpkin pie. And he wasn't just any pumpkin pie, No, he was the KING of pumpkin pies all around the universe. Because he was the king of the universe, nothing could eat him or the universe would be blown up by divide by zero bombs...

    Post your Computer Specs!

    Are they noisy? I have some fairly large fans on my system, which makes it run very quiet but cool. They all auto-adjust speed as well as the system demands it (I have a BIOS setting that monitors my power and temp settings and adjusts them based on my settings), and since my gaming computer is...

    But with no Aero, that's the catch. As for the system temps, my system runs pretty much just as cold. I have 4 case fans, 2 Gfx card fans and a PSU fan keeping my system cool. Also, as for the upgrades, if the nVidia 9 series cards get any better and are better than me investing in two or three...

    IE8 or FF3B5

    They've been out long enough really, in my view Beta is just a bit too early until things like Beta 3 and above come out, or until the final release comes out. That's when I really bother to compare things, as who knows, what I might write a review on might be completely different the next day...

    You do but your forum gets so big that you have to get a billion dollars to build your own datacenter for your site. I wish that it would stay warm outside 24/7.

    IE8 or FF3B5

    It's too soon to decide. Internet Explorer 8 is still in the first stages of a beta and Firefox 3 Beta 3 still has some issues with it like slower rendering times (on my quad core system, I can notice it a lot).

    Exactly, hence why if you try to run Games like Crysis with a single core or dual core system running a 1.6GHz processor, 2GB of RAM and an nVidia 8800 Ultra, the system will choke and die because of the bottleneck of the processor. If I were to take one of my 8800GT cards and put them in one of...

    Solar Power Vs. Wind Power

    But that's by battery, which is expensive. The panels themselves won't work at night unless you can give them some artificial light, which does work (hence why solar calculators with no batteries work indoors)

    Post your Computer Specs!

    Hey, being a gamer you have to have something that is fast and balanced. Also, both of my cards have 512MB per card, so I have 1GB of dedicated video memory, and some RAM left over which is hardly used.

    Cheapest place to buy RAM?

    I've found NewEgg and TigerDirect to give some really cheap RAM cards. It's where I buy a lot of my computer equipment, as stuff is cheap there. $20 for 1GB of laptop RAM, not bad.

    Solar Power Vs. Wind Power

    Wind turbines themselves are pretty quiet. I've heard from reliable sources that they are pretty much silent. I'd have to say that this is kind of a tie because of the fact that some areas get more wind than sunlight, while areas can sometimes get more sunlight and less wind, kind of like some...

    Once there was an acorn. This acorn was the acorn of the biggest tree in the world, but that tree was destroyed by the mystical magician of the mailable metals which were sent all around the city of Papakura, located in the realm of far far away New Zealand, which is in the South east world of...

    Do you hate Microsoft?

    About the bundling of browsers, Apple bundles their own browser, Safari with Mac OS-X, and I don't see them getting hit in the face with those lawsuits (right word?). But the bundling of Internet Explorer into Windows is what ultimately killed Netscape.

    !!!! The NEW Biggest thread !!!!

    It's snowed here in April before, so it's not wierd. It happens every few years. As for Global Warming, there is loads of argument out there, with people always analyzing other people's work and everything. Until we can get 100% solid proof rather than some quickly done or not completely checked...

    Linux : Do you like it or hate it?????

    They have software out there that will allow you to run Windows EXE files. Look around you Linux Distro's help pages a bit. A good one to use is WINE. It's not the best out there, but it performs good.
