..... kp has found yet another way to leave me speechless...

Z06 ftw! my vehicle of choice as well

Baltimore at Tennessee: Baltimore Buffalo at Indianapolis: Indianapolis Cleveland at Atlanta: Atlanta Green Bay at Minnesota: Green Bay (Minn looked awful against San Fran of all teams) Houston at Jacksonville: Jacksonville Kansas City at Miami: Kansas City New Orleans at Pittsburgh: New Orleans NY Jets at New England: New England San Diego at Cincinnati: San Diego San Francisco at Detroit: Detroit Washington at Philadelphia: Philadelphia Denver at Oakland: Denver Dallas at Arizona: Dallas (groin-punch game last week, they'll bounce back against sorry arizona) St. Louis at Seattle: Seattle Chicago at NY Giants: Chicago (losing Strahan really hurts) Tampa Bay at Carolina: Carolina After all those crazy games last weekend, I can't possibly do as poorly this week...

"forceful coersion" = ramming them, yes. unrealistic, i know they are more aggresive in trying to hold their position though, that might be just part of the coding that went wrong or something with the AI.

I have actually PIT'ed someone before, but it was very difficult and required rather forceful coersion The AI cars tend to fight more for position than they used to... PIT'ing the five-oh though is still possible and a favorite pursuit breaking method of mine

I am waiting until there is a consensus on the HD format (HD-DVD vs. Blu-Ray) before I decide to get a player for either of these. Reminds me of when DVDs were brand new and everyone was waiting for them to pick a single format. One of them ought to win eventually, then they will start selling like crazy and the prices may start to drop some. you may be better served to wait, imho.

I don't have much faith in Gerard, and Houston beat em. I usually pick an upset game every week, and last week that was Oak vs Pit......and we all know how that turned out! Pittsburgh is 2-5 now. That's not much of an upset... The Raiders beating anyone right now would be an upset.... including the NCAA AP Top 10. and ftr: Kansas City at St. Louis: St. Louis Houston at NY Giants: Giants Tennessee at Jacksonville: Tennessee New Orleans at Tampa Bay: New Orleans Dallas at Washington: Dallas Miami at Chicago: Chicago Green Bay at Buffalo: Green Bay Cincinnati at Baltimore: Cincinnati (my attempt at an upset special) Atlanta at Detroit: Atlanta Minnesota at San Francisco: Minnesota Denver at Pittsburgh: Denver Cleveland at San Diego: San Diego Indianapolis at New England: Indianapolis Oakland at Seattle: Seattle (but closer than you may think)

I disagree. Videostudio is an extremely easy program to learn, with a step-by-step assembly line layout that can produce professional-looking video. It practically holds your hand through the process. I know mac users are in love with their OS and will vehemently defend it. I'm sure its a great operating system. If it were me that only wanted to do some video editing coming from a windows background, I would much rather learn a new easy to follow program than have to learn the ins and outs of a new operating system AND a new professional video editing program. Anyways, just my 2 cents

stick with a pc so she doesnt have to learn a new OS, buy ulead videostudio, then let her go to town. I have edited plenty of video using that program on this laptop, which has been resonably quick. Put it on a desktop, and that will only get better. Ulead Videostudio is extremely user-friendly, easy to use, and good bang for the buck. When she wants to go pro though, you'll have to dish out $850 for Adobe Premier Pro 2.0

$10 (hey, it's better than the Inspiron 6000D I'm typing this on )

big tough guy forum? IndEEd...

I made such a switch, and got performance changes in CS:S from 65-80 fps average to 180-200 fps average. Went from P4 630 to core 2 E6600. Here's my setup (only changes were mobo/cpu): Intel Core 2 E6600 Asus P5B eVGA 7800GT CO 2GB Corsair ValueRAM (cheap, yet effective) WD200GB SATA2

The adobe program I use now is Premier Pro 2.0. Unfortunately, it's cost prohibitive since it's around $850. There are discounts for academic affiliation, etc. It's the program of choice for professionals, but imo videostudio should be perfect for what you are looking to do, preach. to be honest, there is a bit of a learning curve with the adobe program, in that if you're new to video editing it may be a struggle at first. The ulead program is very user friendly, and employs an "assembly line" process that steps you through the video editing process. It's the program I learned how to "professionally" edit digital video, which is why I recommend it. Either way you go, you can get professional quality video and can also produce DVDs with some limited menu features as well. gl and hf with your video editing!

^ wow. just, wow

when i had my old p4 630, it would generally run about that hot. those cpus run warm, period. I did throw some artic silver in, which dropped my temps some. my new conroe, on the other hand, 31c under load.... gotta love that

Ulead Videostudio is a very good "prosumer" program, easy to follow and you can get professionalish results with it. I used to use it quite a bit for my job until I finally got financing for adobe software There are other possibly cheaper programs to do basic editing, but videostudio is a personal favorite and good bang for the buck.

this is CLASSIC!

Why? Did she make you delete it ? hehe MAC address filtering >>>>WEP ..try it ^ fixt

I don't know enough about ram timings to mess with it, nor do I know the "safe" way of increasing the speed... but thats a topic for another thread. Thanks Cujo
