  1. Excellent! I once saw something like this, but they were for medical terminology....
  2. If you ever want to get into the hardcore website building (after HTML, that is), you may want to check out PHP and ASP...
  3. Me too....I've been using sharpies on CDs, nothing bad has ever happened...i think you just need to use an oil based marker, not a water based one....
  4. Store bought Dell, this is the computer on which I've learned so much.... Coke or Pepsi?
  5. Whoa...You must have really odd hobbies then ...Then again, I'm not the person to talk.. By the way, those who are trying to lose weight: Drink water when you are on the computer. I always have huge bottles near me, and I drink water unconciously all the time. I know, you need to go to the bathroom a bit more, but you really do feel much better...I mean, I don't need to lose weight, but I do feel much more at ease...No more headaches due to dehydration!

    Hello

    yeah, welcome and we hope you see more and more of you on these boards! as tg1911 said, "So, come on in, kick back, and relax." Let us heed those words!
  7. Macmarauder's weather machine in his garage.....
  8. Well.....To help out macmarauders forgetfulness, i'll ask a question on his behalf: Optical or Analog (mouse)?
  9. I see....But, shanenin won't have a problem with this because linux will be running on this machine...Harddrive space won't really be a problem for you, as long as the processor and RAM meet the requirements, i say go full steam ahead.
  10. hehehe...indeed.... Also, Liz, if you already have a CD burner, i would go and get CD-Rs (make a one day trip to the store; go make a huge run and get whatever you need over there, that way you won't completely waste your time on driving) because cd burning is invaluable if you want to backup. It is also useful for transfering large files, and just to clear up harddrive space. Thats about all i can think about right now....Good Luck .
  11. No, Windows does limit harddrive size to my understanding; Linux, i'm not so sure about. I think windows 98 can't handle anything above 60GB, windows 2000 anything above 200GB, and I think window XP can handle up to a terabyte (I received this info at CompUSA; its been some time, so i may be wrong). However, the motherboard does have limits. Just like RAM
  12. yeah, we were thinking about that, but in the end I figured out what was going wrong. I got this at Office Depot, because my dad shops there so much, they give us really good deals and let us get away with stuff like "Limit 1 per customer" rules, etc....
  13. Thanks, but i figured it out. I just so happened that all the times i tried, the stick wasn't properly inserted. It works now, thanks.
  14. Is C++ a bad language to spend time learning? Matt I just go something to add here as well....: "C is very efficient, and very sparing of your machine's resources. Unfortunately, C gets that efficiency by requiring you to do a lot of low-level management of resources (like memory) by hand. All that low-level code is complex and bug-prone, and will soak up huge amounts of your time on debugging. With today's machines as powerful as they are, this is usually a bad tradeoff — it's smarter to use a language that uses the machine's time less efficiently, but your time much more efficiently. Thu
  15. Well, i suspected that it may be my video card, as i bought an FX 5200 128MB (Yeah, i know, lame) in November....it is only happening with those few icons. If that happens again, i'll take a screen shot and show you what i mean....
  16. Akira (The movie, Tetsuya reminds me of "Tetsuo"...its been some time since i've seen it, and i haven't even watched all of it....waaaaay too bloody for me...)
  17. On my computer, sometimes my icons change colors. For instance, the IE icons is a light blue color, however sometimes my computer shows it in the dark blue color (i haven't touched any settings). This happens with AIM's icon on the window taskbar, and winamp/spywareblaster's icon on the desktop. I haven't touched any settings, and this just started recently...anyone have any ideas?

    Spring?

    Wow....how do you guys live in such cold weather?! I mean, here when its 65 degrees we say, "Whoa, it's going to be really chilly today"....For you guys, it must be pleasant .
  19. Gravira (Upgrade of the spell Gravity in Kingdom Hearts....what a great game....)
  20. W00T! When's open mike night?
