Yup it's Hell Ride produced my Quentin Tarantino. Denny Hopper is in it as well. Pretty good B'ish flick.

Agree. I could elaborate more but it would put this thread in the cellar.

Liked it, one of the better movies I've seen in awhile.

Dude Sennheiser's rock, 5 years ago I picked up PC 151's and was blown away. Went through 2 pairs (kept messing up the plugs) and decided I would go with the HD 280 pro. With that I use a clip on mic that I attach to the cord. Absolutely an awesome set up imo.

Curling ftw.. lol, it's as popular as bowling in my parts.. Why do the Canadian Skiers look like Molson Can's?

Yeah, it was good times. First time I played CS:S in over a year for any length of time. I'm going to hop in more often now, I forgot how great gc servers are.

Downloaded it played a bit, realized I need a major upgrade to play this game. What I found very cool is the flight controls on the helicopters are like a helicopter simulator (not like battlefield). I was able to get a profile for my Logitech G940 flight controls and flew around a bit, but my 5fps makes it unbearable.

Thanks for the input. After thinking about it more I'm going to wait. Right now I'm on a very tight budget but in three months I get to build a computer for a school project, at which time I'm thinking about a micro atx, only because they have lans at school every Friday so I want something portable. My current rig which only has a few hours on it, I put it on the shelf when I went to China, used it for a little bit when I got back then back on the shelf then back down again. In a nutshell it's going to be a media center, torrent box, and for casual gaming. My biggest gripe is ati doesn't support there agp cards anymore, so instead of going for a medium overhaul I'm going to get this. Oh yeah just playing Wow, Arma2, and this cool web game called Evony.

Time to do an upgrade. I don't care about being able to upgrade in the future, just need something to get me by for a few years. ATX form factor, and I have a little used 555 watt p/s. What I wanted was to look for a 939 socket mobo with a pci-e slot, but I couldn't find anything at a decent price. Thanks in advance.

For what it's worth I'm having all kinds of problems with the drivers for my agp1650xt card, I'm going to revert back to sp2 (using xp) real soon.

Translation: I squish squishy steel stuff into gas guzzlers ) Funny Laz. I have to correct you though. Non ferrous = al, mg, and zn in my case. Plastics and composites are a different story.

15 years as a process engineer specializing in changing the shape of molten non ferrous material into near net shape workable forms of various parts for the automotive and recreation vehicle markets. Last year the company I worked for sales were cut in half and the fact I was the highest paid non-manager I was let go. Now I'm utilizing some goverment grants that are available to me and am a full time student again. I'm hanging up my ME degree to get into IT where the growth is 20% vs -5%. It's fun being in school again after 12 years.

Technically yes the car is causing more pollution so you should change it. However it's not like we are experiencing global warming.

ugh!!!

Remembering the good times on scopeless and FF05. RIP my friend. -Ben

At first read I thought mineral oil would be a terrible idea since it's not that great of a thermo conductor, but by sheer volume it would assorbe a lot of heat.

Ask the radio station for a recording?

So how is it?

Just dinged 80 on wow a few weeks ago and am playing with some friends doing heroics ect. on a daily bases. I don't have a lot of time starting up another mmo. However I am getting bored with wow and it only takes me an hour to do my daily's and another if we do a instance. We'll see, I was going to jump on age of conan, but I saw how fast that died, so I don't want to invest a lot of time into a game that is going to die a few months after it launch's. I will defiantly keep my eye on it though.

Man Preach, I would like to talk to you sometime. I've been through all of the above and am going through some of the issues you stated above myself..

Looks like it's right up my alley also. But I'm going to have to wait a little bit.

Congrats! Not a bad place to live either. I frequent Baudete\Long Point a few times a year on fishing trips to LOTW.

I don't do heights very well, but I'm going to check it out the next time I'm in Chi town. Have any of you that live in Chicago checked it out yet?
