Finishing up the fictional Sharpe series by Bernard Cornwell (based on true events) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharpe_%28novel_series%29 Good stuff if your in to 19th century war and stuff. Bernard Cornwell has also done series on civil war (Starbuck series) and the Anglo-Saxon period of England (...
Two is better than one, nice. :) I got the stock from Northridge International, they were selling them unissued/new and unfinished. I like the way it feels better than the straight. http://northridgeinc.com/store/index.cfm Might have to go for it......... http://northridgeinc.com/store/index.cfm/c1...
Some people like plastic guns, I guess. My 1903A3 with the unissued scant stock I recently finished and installed. This particular 1903A3 was rearsenaled at Raritan after the war and sold to a gentlemen in the 1960s as part of the predecessor to the civilian marksmanship program. Said gentleman nev...
how is the .338 for shooting? Part of me wants something bigger than a 30 caliber but part of me worries about recoil. 30-06 doesn't bother me in most rifles at all; I've gone through up to about 40 rounds in a sitting shooting one with grampa back when I was...13 or so? Biggest thing I've shot sin...
The Armalite 15A4 (top one) came in green, and the DPMS AR-15 was black, but I picked up a furniture set cheep at a gun show. The Remington 700 LTR had a factory Houge stock in Black, but then the green bug got me and I sent it back to Houge to get them to refinish it OD/Spider Black (one of the sta...
I had this annoying obsessive-compulsive guy in the UK so I placed an * asterisk in his home directory and changed the perms to his. It took less then a week when I got a request to restore most of his files in his home directory (directories were still there) He was like "I don't understand it...
I am not impressed with COD BO, the episode in Russia in 63 with MP5's and red dot scopes? Going to the Pentagon to meet Pres Kennedy being escorted by BMW motorcycles, I mean they sure didn't take the time to get stuff correct. The graphics sux to, sure a disappointment considering COD MW2. I hope ...
Hey all will be checking out the bits everyone has suggested. And yes we had a great time at the dive (it was it's last night, the owner is selling it so who knows what may turn up in it's place) I actually left early when the fight broke out and some idoit but his arm through the front window.
Cool thanks I will check it out. Heading out with my step son (my Ex's son) at the local dive. Funny how him and his sister both commented I would be better off with out her(the X), I only had to deal w/her for 5 years, they get to deal w/her for life. But I digress. Thanks and I'll check back a bit...
Thanks, the D thing does sux, but WTF do ya do <shrug> Yeah one GPU for now is no problem, I just want to look at something upgradeable once I have more "ducks in a row" So a MB with at least 2 PCI Express 2.0 (I like Asus, but not that particular).
Why would you even consider dual graphics cards with only a 19" LCD? If I had a budget of $2500-$3000, I'd probably be putting 1/3 to 1/2 of it into a monitor. BTW, is this primarily a gaming pc?
For now the 19" I do plan to add bits as I go. I just got divoced so one expense at a time.
Ok my 3 year old box has died on me. I will be using some of the original bits (for now at least) to create a new box, I’d like some ideas and advise. I currently have; NZXT ATX mid tower case Athlon-64 X2 4800 939 Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe 2Gb Corsair XMS DDR400 2 Nvidia 7800GTX 512MB SLI 2 Raptor WD74...
Well my company didn't make the list (nor any of my previous employers, Sprint, Perot systems, Systems House) But I must say the guys I work for ain’t bad. NeuStar Inc. is a great place to work for as a Unix Systems type guy. The pay, the yearly bonus, and anytime you need to work from home, head of...
I wouldn't call that a 4 season tent, but it has lots of room. Here is what I have been using for a few years for light short trips for camping/hunting. http://www.eurekatent.com/p-72-k-2-xt.aspx I also have this one for when it's just me: http://www.eurekatent.com/p-71-alpenlite-xt.aspx Both are gr...
Well I picked up an EOL Sun v60x dual socket Xeon box work was gonna pitch. It had a dead proc, and one empty socket. It did however have 6Gb of DDR 266 ECC Reg mem, 2 X 146 10,000 rpm SCSI drives with an adaptec raid cont. 2 10/100/1000 Ports, 2 PCI-X slots I picked up 2 Xeon 2.8GHz processors, (eb...
During boot up there will be a some form of vendor (nvidia, adaptech, etc, etc) driver load and there will be a press F<somekey> type of thing to allow you in to the RAID manager software. Go in there and make you new disk visable. Sorry don't know enough about your mobo and chipset
Okay, what are the values of the flags in the following command for a complete shutdown on a Sun (i.e. Solaris) system? Google reveals a little bit of information, but not everything that I'm looking for. Thanks for your help. shutdown -y -g0 -i5 well you just halted you system with that one (-i 5)...
Well if you can setup your sendmail.cf or submit.cf DS variable with your ISP relay host ( would have to test), any how after you get the relay right a simple
over the weekend i plugged the comp directly into the router and it works fine. so its definatly something with the wireless. The card is turning off when something is running full screen. Plag and play issue? Wireless Zero Configuration (service) configuration issue? Try going to run> services.msc...
im not sure what to think at this point. Its like my only option left is to reformat. Just kinda crazy. Just a stab in the dark could it be something to do with directX? Maybe try using the dxdiag and see if there are any errors <shrug> http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb;en-us;q190900 scroll dow...
