    Techtv

    That name sounds really familiar to me. Did she do something on TechTv?
  3. To chinawht: Hello! yeah since I have the anime con coming up I had to get extra work done so I can go. Found a little something on the Highway today, and then it followed me home. I asked the GF if I could keep but alas NO.
  4. Plummer looked pretty good against the Chiefs! It helps that the Broncs have the best offensive line in football, you can have anybody with a pulse run for 150 yds. with holes like that. Who needs Clinton Portis? Very true. But it's been kinda painful to watch them win games against the best teams and fall apart against some of the worst. Although that's just a Bronco thing anyways. Besides considering the coaches ability for finding 100 yards + running backs we will have a good running game.
  5. Yes thanks tg1911 for the heads up. 30 points for you. Yeah I know that it is kinda obvious to us but still people still get scammed by the "Arabian Prince that has too much money and he needs to give you some, all you need to do is provide your account # and every thing I need to steal your money**** I mean your info so that I can send you the money ..... yea that's it. "
  6. the Broncos could always use another QB. we're on that 1 year rotation thing anyways. Man it feels like we have a QB every year, oh that's right, we do. It's like little league, everyone gets a turn.
  7. I know not of what you speak. G4? Boards? Seriously I gave up on them a long time ago but a couple of friends of mine that still go there regularly have kept me apprized of the G4 boards and it's gotten pretty bad over there. I don't know you guys all that well yet but just so you know one of the reasons is that there really is a group of people that go there just to cause trouble in an attemp to dirupt the G4 community. I had a bad run in with them before and it truly saddens me that they are accomplishing what they want. So my heart goes out to you guys that still go there. As far as the
  8. HEY HO, LETS GO, BRONCOS!!!! YEAH!!!!
  9. Uh Oh a Football thread! This could get interesting. I was a Bronco Fan in Albuquerque, I was a Bronco Fan in Ohio, I was a Bronco Fan in New York, I'm a Bronco Fan everywhere. The first game I ever went to was John Elways first game as QB for the Broncos and I haven't stopped being Blue and Orange since.
  10. Yes sadly the so called execs have put TSS on a whole new demographic scheme.
  11. Guess I've been living under my couch for too long cause I didn't know. Shall I release the smilie ninjas to combat this threat?
  12. That's what I've been doing since I came across the link that was posted here a little while back. I'm just wandering why google keeps giving me more. I get 6 more every day. SO every morning I get up and donate all 6.
  13. Alright I moved my whole computer setup next to the front window. Ordered pizza, rerouted some plumming with a little carpentry work on the recliner. Sent GF lots of folwers and a card that said that the computer meant nothing to me, it was a moment of weakness. Called Apple and told them I'd come back to work as a consultant but I would have to work online only. OK I think that covers it all. Did I forget anything?
  14. I honestly don't know what to do. I keep giving themn away and I keep getting more. I almost get them as fast as I give then away. Lets just turn them into currency so that I can be rich again.
  15. Yeah I felt the same way when Leo left. i've been watching on and off now. and again when Pat left. More than anything else it's like the show has no personality and i want to shout out "where has all the tech gone?" They don't go into as much detail as they used to. Now everything on the show feels more like a commercial for products. I personally liked it when they went into some detail about how certain tech worked instead of saying "wow these are really great speakers." I know they didn't do it much but I think it helped the feel of the show. Now everything is a little snipet like they ar
  16. The dangerous addiction of SPS. Every day several inocent and unknowing posters become victim to SPS Starving Poster Syndrome. They become so addicted to posting in online forums and instant messaging that they never leave their seats to eat. Their body filled with only mountain dew and cheesy puffs they become delusional and heavily infected with SPS. Once someone is infected they spread the disease by posting about food products. Here is some posts from an infected member who unfortunately ran out of his reachable food supply. It's too late for this individual. By the time he finally got
  17. OK even though he's a friend of mine I realy like his site. Drakeshangout.com Milk and Cookies .com Newgrounds This ones not what you think. It's all blood and guts, so if you don't like this sort of thing don't go there. Happy Tree Friends Huge Collection of Desktop Pictures that are Apple related The Apple Collection Please forgive me. I'm not trying to spam or self promote but I really like my web comic site. Colorado Caveman Comic
  18. Yah one of the problems with swithching to a totally new OS and a lack of support for 8 year old computers. I suggest eBay, they are selling for around $50 + Yes you do need to find one that says it's Mac compatable. I'd suggest looking on eBay in the Mac section or I use a company called LG. They usually have some pretty good prices and I like their quality for Mac stuff. LG Products Your welcome for the help. Any time.
  19. Your right, except I kinda think there was no flow to the whole show. Also this new co host just seems a little too goofy and not knowledgeable enough. Maybe it's just me or I just need to wram up to the new guy. Cause I really liked the episode with martin co hosting just before they went to LA. For now I'll keep watching and hope for the best.
  20. RAM RAM RAM Most people don't realize it but Macs are memory based systems. PCs are processor based. So put extra RAM in your mac and yes quality does make a big difference in performance. Increasing the RAM can even increase overall performance. Here's a good place for some cheap but still good quality RAMBarracuda's Crucial Ram .com The transfer rate through the current cables and busses are far faster than than the current Hard Drives. So trust me a good fast HD is more preferable for performance that a big one. I tend to use 9,000 RPM Barracuda's or 10,000 RPM Raptor drives myself. OS X
  21. Naa. I just happen to have G3 processor for a brain and I'm always rebooting the darn thing. So I picked up a trick or two. That and I did stay at a Holiday Inn a year ago. Yep after sleeping on it what you need my friend is a Install CD for OS X. Even if you booted off of a floppy you still can't repair the Kernel. Well you can but it would involve far too much time, effort, and some very tricky stuff. Because what happened was that the firmware in the MOBO tried to run a script that is usually apart of OS 9 but since OS X that was that part is gone and supposedly disabled when OS X install
  22. One question. Is anyone here going to the Nan Desu Kan anime convention in Aurora Colorado next weekend? I'm pretty hiped for it. Ya I know why oh why do I go to these things? See some new animes of course. hangout with friends in a hotel playing games until 5 in the morning. Then getting up at 8'O clock and doing it all again. Besides it's one of those rare times I go out in day light.
  23. What version OS X do you have? When you try to boot how far do you get before the message comes up? Hmmm is it a black screen with white text? What model G3 is it? A B&W or a beige and what model # ? Ahh Haa I think I know what it is. I think the button that you hit is the very little one that was originally meant to bring up the mac command line. Which would normally called up by the firmware in the MOBO. Yes old macs do have a very simple hidden command line. It was only used by testers and programmers with too much time on their hands. Since you are now running a version of OS X the OS
  24. With regards to your recovery, just remember, keep pushing. Push as much as you can stand. When it gets bad, and you think you can't go anymore, go a little bit more. Only you know what your body can, and can't, take. After I broke my pelvis in 5 places, shattered my left femur, damaged my bottom 3 vertebra, and had severe nerve damage; the doctor told me I was paralyzed, and would never walk again. HA! Three months after the hardware was removed, with therapy, I was able to walk using a cane. That was in 2002. Now I don't use a cane, or pain medication, anymore. It's truly amazing what the mi
