Gaim. I switched from Trillian to Gaim and have not regretted it.

Miranda! Ack, cue Serenity flashback......

I am one of those techs that spend an inordinate amount of time crawling around on the floor rewiring stuff or opening crates of new computers. Lots of sharp edges to tear clothing and/or skin.

Serenity, saw it a couple of times in the Theater and about 9 times more since the DVD came out. Favorite quotes River Tam: "I swallowed a bug!" Jayne: "Lets be bad guys" Inara: "Please, spend 1 hour with him" Wash: "I am a leaf on the wind" Kayle: "I had nothin twixt my nethers wern't run on batter...

Only time I have seen lines like that is when using an analog cable with a LCD monitor. FSB tuning usually gets rid of it. Those should be available on your monitor's menu's. If you are getting it with your DVI hookup, something is broken. :p Question: Are you using DVI out on your GFX card? Or are ...

2 slot, probably fit, but can it handle the power and heat?

Heh, my sister was visiting from Singapore a few weeks back and ordered a battery that was delivered via FedEx. They delivered it to a neighbor they delivered it to ##1## instead of ##7##. Mistaking a 1 for a 7. Now I have a $8k computer being delivered by FedEx next week and am wondering where it w...

start->control panel -> computer management -> storage -> disk management.

see if you find your new disk there then format it.

Read your job contract. If it is the same as all the new ones you do not even need to give 2 weeks notice. Last job I had, I quit after getting pissed off and my manager. Note I was off work for 6 months before finding another job. Make up your mind, is the job worth your time? If not quit. If you s...

I have an 6 year old plasma TV and it has an amber tinge burnt into it. The new LED backlit LCD's have better contrast ratios and more even lighting than its predecessors. The largest LCD TV I know of is 105" is diagonal measurement. There is no difference between a plasma and LCD anymore in terms o...

Heheh, gratz. No matter, you did well.

You have, (cable modem)-(switch)-(pc)? why? Why not hook up (cable modem)-(pc). Another thing to check is the DHCP lease times from your ISP. They once dropped my DHCP lease times down to 1 hour and gave me similar symptoms to what you are expereincing. (start)->(run)-> CMD -> ipconfig /all

Seen it before at 60mph, right in front of me. Black Caddy lost its left rear wheel. Had sparks coming right out from the bottom where it was grinding the pavement, the car spun left first smashing into the railing then bounced off the railing and went all the way to the right coming to a stop 2/3 l...

The DVD was set up for the Dec 20th release before the movie even hit the theaters. For those not of the Browncoat persuasion, Dec 20th was the original air date of "Serenity". Idiot schedulers at Fox aired Serenity which was supposed to be the pilot for "Firefly" last.

Are you loading up win2k on a SATA drive? If so you need to create a floppy with SATA drivers or stream a Win2k install CD with SATA drivers. With the Floppy I think you have to hit F6 or F8 on the CD boot put in the floppy with the SATA drivers and tell the installer that you want to load drivers f...

First of all decide what you want. If you already have a good desktop system, you do not need all the bells and whistles for your laptop. Are you going to be lugging this laptop around campus all day? If so weight should be a priority. Remember you lug the laptop and maybe a spare battery or its cha...

The DRM root kit is scary, the first generation of malware that just uses the root kit is out. The second generation of malware will install the root kit as well, we will see that in 2-3 months. The third generation of malware will probably be out in 6-12 months. That will be the scariest, it will r...

I love Fox for developing some really good shows, X-Files, 24, Firefly, Millenium, Space Above and Beyond etc.. I hate Fox for Axing some really good shows, Firefly, Millenium, Space Above and Beyond etc.. Without Fox the shows would never have been aired and we would not know what we missed. With F...

I have a Athlon 3000+ system with 1 GB of RAM right now with a 6800-Ultra card. Its about 2.5 years old. I did not say it does not play 1920x1200 poorly, just said I had problems. The graphics card overheats quite a bit, it is not water cooled although the system is, the venting in my current water ...

Cannot select the 512MB cards, but a phone call to them handled that. Reason it will take 30 days to ship. 4GB may introduce a small amount of memory latency but will buy a bigger boost in speed with disk caching. I have problems with a 1 GB system in playing Civ4 at 1920x1200. I fully expect to pla...

PS3? Lets see, 1. Blu-Ray with copy protection, so there is no way to copy movies into your home network. 2. One shot copy protection that loads the ID of your game and tie it to your PS3 to prevent game activation on other players. Your player dies cause you dropped it or it overheats and your coll...

I have not purchased a music CD in a few years. I have also never downloaded music from the net legal or otherwise. Been given free gift cards etc. for music downloads, they end up in the trash. Basically music sucks so much these days that I stopped buying it. I do have a collection of classical mu...

Sigh, how many giving him advice to actually fight have been in fights or been trained to fight? I have a black belt spent over 10 years learning how to fight and my advice is to run and call the cops. Fighting is the last resort, there is no honor only injury and probably a jail sentence or probati...
