No.

A mobo should get as far as loading the OS even without RAM. You
should have no trouble getting into the BIOS. Of course, the on-board
video could be bad, but I suppose you'd need a PCI video card to check
it.
I'm not sure what would happen if someone switched off the on-board
video in the bios,
Bad or non existent RAM might do this to you.

Hello all:
It's been a while since I've asked any questions of the site, or tried to
contribute anything. I'm wondering whether anyone on the list has attempted to
use Joomla, the open source web development application, and if so, how you
would characterize your experiences. I'm thinking about
Thanks, Stewart. I ordered a 512 meg RAM card, and if everything is OK,
I will just get three more (two each all these machines will accept),
and that will be fine for WinXP. If they are truly dead, I suspect that
I will be able to use the memory eventually (and it is only $20).

I need a technology update. Somebody just asked me about dropping DSL for
a T1 line.
Is not T1 old infrastructure that phone vendors are looking to unload on
the unwary? I know that T1 is regulated and comes with SLAs (Service
Level Agreements), but I think that would have little meaning to
The only difference I would be able to see is that they would not be
able to put the limits on a T1 line like they can with a home level
DSL line. Also I would think throughput would generally be a little
better. But that is only conjecture.
That being said. They were very expensive at one

T1 is literally technology from another century and is only good for
1.544 m/sec, required specially conditioned dedicated leased circuits,
and is extremely expensive. I cannot imagine what possible value it
would have in today's data communications environment. And, unless I am
wrong, is

I think thins line from the Wikipedia article is significant:
T1 now seems to mean any data circuit that runs at the original
1.544 Mbit/s line rate.
So, I would want to know just what is being sold as a T1 line. I
don't think it is old infrastructure per se - you can get a T1 line
I can't argue the point, because, unlike you, I've only ever had to
try it once. A new board wouldn't boot and tech support told me to
remove everything but the CPU and it should reach the BIOS. It didn't,
and they replaced it. It makes sense as the BIOS doesn't use RAM. But
I imagine boards may

T1s make sense in certain circumstances. In channelized voice
applications (digital handoff) they can actually be less expensive
than multiple individual lines or trunks.
In data only applications it depends.
Any discounts? GigE3 isn't even on Wikipedia yet, tell us about it.
No discounts yet. Look under SONET.

This is how you connect using a DSL line, because it too is
point-to-point to an ISP.
Right, exactly. DSL doesn't touch the switched network.
A T1 can touch the switched network (for voice applications
in the case of a digital handoff or PRI) or it can be point to
point to an ISP POP or to
The dirty little secret of T1 is that in the Bell Atlantic footprint most
T1s are DSL in drag. Verizon uses big optical circuits for their trunks and
peel off T1 T3 from OC-3/OC-12/OC-48 SONET fiber circuits. The T1 is
actually an SDSL (Synchronous DSL -- same speed upstream and down) circuit.
Tony,
When I was selling this for Verizon, it was so expensive only businesses
(and of course your government) could afford it. It's basically a 1,000Mb
(Gig-E) Ethernet handoff from the carrier. You actually would have to buy a
second circuit to connect to your ISP like this:
You
The uptime guarantee might be useful for mission critical circuits; more
appropriate is having the same bandwidth upstream and down. For us home
users the big traffic is mostly downstream; we're willing to endure slow
uploads because unless you are constantly submitting videos to YouTube,

It's opposite here. DSL is horrid and expensive and going nowherecourse
DSL being such old tech has nowhere to go. Cable is rock solid and
inexpensive, 70 bux for 2 up 18mbit down and we regularly see 25mbit+, my
DSL costs 28 and I get 1.1mbit.Qwest corp. has told me they have zero
And they are still more expensive than DSL, although prices have
dropped. We pay about $500/month for ours. There are outfits out
there that say they can provide T1 for less, but I'd be curious if
they can provide it for less and have guaranteed speeds. T1 lines run
at 1.5 Mbps (up and down),
Qwest has been Ma Bell's red-headed step child since divestiture. They have
the largest geographic footprint to cover and the smallest customer base to
pay for it of the Big Three wire line carriers. It's not surprising your
DSL sux. If you are happy with your cable Internet, stick with it.
Grocery stores here sell ATT phones or go phones etc for 15 bux and then
you can buy a card for 20-100 bux for minutessome phones you can buy for
30 and they come with minutes.
Wal-mart has a selection also.
