90 percent of my storage needs is for my  video collection .. around

the video and video ISO collection on a USB3 external drive and plug 
that into the NAS which would make it available to my single user 
LAN? That would leave me with a great deal of storage space for 
computer backups, security camera, Data that needs to be secure= 
about 15 GB, media center recordings, stuff like that?

Or is there another way to do this without having to clone all the 
video files all the time? I am confused.

Sent: Jun 16, 2009 9:42 PM

Hey guys, thoughts on this computer speaker set?  I.e. are they good, what
(if anything) is better-seems weird to ask, but I don't know that computer
speaker tech has advanced that much in the 5 or so years I've had them.

 

Some of you may even have this set; it was rated the best for a while (well
back in 2004 or so when I got my last PC), though there's apparently a dark
side to them, (what with all the subwoofer problems) which I ran into
recently too (well a few years back now I guess).

 

So I'm trying to figure out if it's worth it to get a replacement sub since
there's apparently a good chance it too will have problems (and it's not
that cheap and it's not like they're taking care of owners that had
problems) or if I should get something else.  It's just annoying b/c
everything plugs into the sub and is kind of useless (the 5 other speakers
and head unit) unless someone knows of a company that makes a replacement
sub that's compatible with the Klipsch ones.I didn't find anything when I
google for that tho.

 

Thoughts?

 Of course, the only final recourse is to do a fresh install and see if that

 that Internet Download Manager (which I think works great for
 downloading)has a problem.  I do have one more problem with explorer, or
 rather the recycle bin, where every once in a while I get a fatal exception
 trying to empty it.  Of course it takes all the explorer windows with it,

While i5 is inferior to i7, it is nowhere near a budget computing
solution. The i5 line is designed to be their for-the-masses mainstream
product, whereas i7 was always designed to be high-end workstation and
enthusiast class. The cheapest i5 is slated to be the 2.66GHz variant that
should debut at $196 for 1000-order batches. It's still a very fast chip,
and overall seems to compare favorably to the more-expensive 3.2GHz AMD
Phenom II. 

Several reviewers have commented that if you were in the category that
bought a Q6600 or Q9300 or the like, i5 is probably the Nehalem for you. If
you bought higher-end SKUs, i7 is probably for you. Intel is just doing a
better job of segmenting their market strategies that have, in fact,
always been there.

With the sub $5-600 i7's disappearing, I expect that we will see the cheaper
X58 boards start to disappear as well, as manufacturers focus on P55
solutions.

 I'm a bit confused by this comment. My understanding is that the i5 is

I know the print programs do this for posters and banners and
what-not, such as Print Artist.

Re: [H] Printing A0 size onto A4

[z00100]

I didn't really think of that. I will check if our printer supports this 
function.

If you have an HP printer, it's got an n-way poster setting that will do this 
for you.

  have independently concluded that Intel bribed manufacturers to freeze 
 out AMD in their distribution networks with so-called rebates and to 
 delay the release of AMD based products. AMD didn't make crappy PC's with 
 their products.

[just your opinion. Info here in the SE is that most of the returns are AMD.]

  They made some missteps along the way (Phenom I) as Intel did (Netburst) 
 but AMD didn't attempt to bribe manufacturers to give preference to their 
 products. Intel did and next March we're going to see Intel get spanked 
 again in US court this time. The Ati division of AMD makes excellent 
 GPU's and I predict that nVidia is going to have a rude awakening in the 
 4th quarter when DX11 high performance cards come out.

[Clearly your opinion! My last 6 months with ATI video cards leaves me to 
beg the HWG for suggestions to go back to nVidia. Yes, ATI may eventually 
catch up. Right now, today, I am still watching; and converting back to 
nVidia as fast as I can($)]

Larrabee is going to get spanked by both camps when Intel realizes that 
using x86 to make a video card is another netburst dead end. ;-)

I do accept that UR an AMD fan-boy. Very strong. Fine. Suspected this 5 yrs 
ago. Now confirmed.

OK. Perhaps I might be wimpy. Acceptable.  I started way back when with 
Intel (IP266). Now, I am coming back to Intel just because it seems to me 
[?] that planet Earth is also moving Intel.  You have every right to just 
label me a whore..on the other side.. :)
No problemo!

Duncan

I say look at all the crappy PC's that could have been made with AMD 
chips these past 5 years (and some have been)! It's not been good for AMD 
these past ~5 years and it has a more to do with AMD than Intel, just 
look at them fraking up ATI.

Imagine all the money that AMD lost over the past 5 years because of 
Intel's bribes to PC makers. Beginning to look like the GM of the 
semiconductor world minus the threat of bankruptcy of course.
