Quote: Quote: I have no problem filling my 40GB maxtor with mp3's. The problem is that I don't have time to organize them and burn them on to CD's. About filling so much songs 24,570,108 songs 1,919,818 CDs (CDDB.com). No idea how much songs my collection has, but some of my friends go well over 60GB. Do you seriously know and like all the songs though? If so, then I guess you have shown me that there is a market for this product. If not, would it really be worth it to have skip 10-15 songs that you don't know or don't like to get to one you do? if i got all my mp3s off cd's i have well over 200+ gigs+ the 50g i have on my HD right now i think that sums that up. And yes i do like them all - i lvoe hard house / house / progressive / underground / hard trance - i often just put the full 50g into winamp and hit play - i listen to it all! and if i don't like a track / cd - i delete it and i still have the 200+g on d's and 50g on my comp now and probably add about 1 -3 g's a day of new mp3s

do not get a Ti or g4 - out of date - why buy card that will be ueseless - think future ATi 9500 or 9100 - they are Dx9 compatible - yes i know nothing uses it yet, but better to buy something that can use it when it is in palce so in 6 months your not buying yet another card because your ti won't play games.

does anyone know of hand sites that do ship international - to be specific Costa Rica..... is a shame newegg won't ship outside the US

^^^ that would be nice if they were samsung?

Clutch - is that, or would that not be the same technology they have had for about 2 - 3 years now that allows you to watch TV but the screen becomes your wallpaper basically? i can use that with my old ATi AIW 32mb 128 2x AGP card with the latest drivers and some older versions..................

shassouneh , check out the MMD 3 skin, it just kicks arss! for winamp 3 as for who ever said that if your not using winamp2.x your a dunce, then yeah i will join the crowd, frankly i find that a rather lame post to call people intellectually challenged simply because they like something that others may not.

hehe that depends what type of "speed" we are talking about not all "speed" is good

Also! foudn out what it is when u drag your mouse courser - drag it to the left or right, not up or down, it seems if u do, media player thinks u have the mouse ON the controls, so it does not close them. drag your mouse off the screen to the left or the right and it will disappear!!! Also, to go full screen, just double click on the playing video, this will full screen it automatically.

I can agree Andy a great deal - as the media always over hypes these types of situations. my side is more people who choose to ignore something like this as opposed to simply saying "yes, i am aware it is out there, i know what i should do in order to protect myself and will be catious IF it is required" i am not saying change your life style, simply if you are in a position of possibly contracting ANy disease you should be aware of what steps to be taken to avoid getting it, instead of just saying it is all bullshit. One of the people who had said it was all bullshit came back to say that that is not what they meant but more so that they do not need to change their life because of this, but to me the word "bullshit" means what it says.

great - then looks liike the dell it will be. i do not care for the speakers in them, so that is one extra $$ i don't need - and game srefresh will be important as this is going on my o/c - gaming rig.

RaidenFTp -if u can figure it out

u know there will be, but not liekly out for a while - took long enough for the AIW 9700 to come out. i bought a new 120g WD, a g4 vid card 9no palce here had an ATI 9*) and some networking crap and some fans for my case. not i finally got my little vaio case as a entertainment rig in my living room, all networked up! movies anytime! got to get a pic once i get a camera! got an extra p4s533 mobo wiuth 512 pc2100 - So temping to buy a new cpu - 2.8 or something to over clock!!!! i hate having an extra mobo around!

here are some posts and my responses from one place i posted this on. Quote: that's such bullshit unless you have an immune deficiency or some kind of major organ disease...you aren't going to die from sars! people are so stupid i seriously hope a new story that all the papers can cover comes up soon so people can stopw orrying about stupid sars My Reponse Quote: ^^^^ and how many people in this world have deficiencies? how many 3rd world countries are there? yeah exactly. Not everyone is healthy societies_devil, millions of people die a year simply from the common cold and other such "typical" illnesses. it is a worse case scenerio - but it is very well possible. Quote: goddamn i hate the media sometimes... the other day i saw a bunch of kids walking around with masks on... it is such bullshit.... My reponse: Quote: it is such bullshit? that is why people are dying? and more people being infected daily - not neccesarily dieing, but being infected - yeah is all bullshit, these people are not really dieing, there is no SARS. So if it is BS why don't you gpo get infected, and see just how bullshit it is. Are some people really that ignorant? it is people with that state of mind that spread disease around cause they think "i can't get this"

Supposedly toronto only has 140 known cases and only 16 deaths thus far. what fraked me was the time i was in toronto, i visited scarborough grace hospital 2 times, one was 2 days before they shut it down!!!! - ,my uncles mother wazs there after an operation and we had visited her. i don't think this can be conpared to aids - considering aids death rate is %100 and this is i beleive someone said liek 1/30 chance. As many other have said where i posted this - it is alot of media hype - but i say better safe then sorry, alot of people are saying this is BS. and as i said - okay - u got get infected and tell me how BS it is!

i beleive HP has the heads on the cartridges - Epson has them in the printer........? anyways - i would rather spend the extra $$$ and get something i know will work - as i have herd a many horror stories about refills.

bad laser? send it back?

true true - MS could develope software for it - but @ the same time why support something almost 4-5 years old? that would cost them $$$ - yes, they have tons of it - but MS also wants you to buy new products - they can not support old products for ever.

32 - 48 - what is that like 20 seconds difference..lol i burn @ 32x on my samsung cd's and 40x on my cheap office depo ones -

^^^ yeah, nero all the way - i got sick of adaptec / roxio when i made so many coaster because of buffer underruns for no reason.

the sidewinder Serial controller does not work with XP -with the software MS is only supporting USB devices under Xp - the software that is. no more serial devices software will work - the device will work - u just can not use the software to customize things

winamp3 - if they fixed the slow start up time it would not be bad - i just like the MMC skin for it

i had this issue last night when u go full screen - don't play a move yet, just start media player - go full screen - then you will see this little button up in the top left corner - near the windows logo - click that - restart media player and go full screen witha mvoei, shoudl do it i did this while a movie was playing and it would NOT go away, until i did it the way above.

does your cd player support cd-r's?

Quote: On another note, I considered going with 9500 non-pro and blasting it to a 9700, however, I have no clue how to do that, nor do I know which brand and type of card to buy. it is considerably easy - well would be to me. if u want good info go over to http://oc-forums.com - VERY smart people over there, and many people ask the same thing you do! just check out "video and sound cards and then go to the ATI

50! and 55 after load - that is high! for a non over clocked chip. i over clock my 2.4 to 3.1 - my max temp UNDERLOAD is 57 - this has a cheap fan - but i got a few case fans. and this is after running SETI@HOME for 10 hours or more. plug in those case fans OR go buy some quieter fans, you can fry your system if u don't keep it cool enough! and i think most people can learn to deal with @ least 1 case fan rather then spend a few $1000 to buy a new system..lol it is not worth the risk.
