    General buckets of GPU perf in laptops

    Nevermind. http://www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Graphics-Cards-Benchmark-List.844.0.html has given more than all the data I'd ever want to create my own binning.

    General buckets of GPU perf in laptops

    What are the general buckets for performance of GPUs commonly found in laptops? I ask because a) I am not the type to split hairs between 3-5fps difference between GPUS, all else being generally equal, and b) the numbering scheme AMD/Nvidia use seems to not correlate with performance, iow...

    Good Wireless USB Conference Mic?

    Well, essentially that is what I am asking. What is a proper mic? What's a good USB mixer? I'd like to get advice from people that may know the various mics and similar setups better than I do, which is close to nil. :)

    Good Wireless USB Conference Mic?

    In our offices, we have morning huddles in a rather open, 20x20ft area. Some of our staff are remote, so they Skype/ooVoo into the huddle. A computer puts the remote users on-screen and runs the huddle. We have issues with finding the right microphone to pick up everyone who is speaking in the...

    Laptop with good vertical resolution?

    Thanks for the input. Looking for something in the 15" range. BTW, I am not confused. I am aware of aspect ratios. I am asking specifically for decent vertical resolution because I am annoyed by the recent rash of cost-cutting, low-resolution laptops that make web-based apps and business...

    Laptop with good vertical resolution?

    What's a good business laptop with good vertical resolution, meaning in the 1000px and up range, and a docking mechanism? Many laptops these days offer such crappy screens.

    Want To Be Domestic, Not Imported

    Just by a hair's breadth... "alphadogg" or "alphadog###", where ### can be any number, would be fine.

    Should political advertisements be banned?

    Again, another gross over-generalization. My guess is because people vote differently than you, you think they must not "have a fucking clue". That is explained because you somehow think you are the Fount Of Eternal Wisdom or something, something...

    White House goes solar - symbolic gesture towards boosting Chinese Economy?

    Right. And the $10,000 hammer, bought by taxpayer money, siphoned via the Republican Industrial Military Complex is a paragon of efficiency? See, I can play the hyperbole and gross exaggeration game too!

    Not a religion thread

    You're right. It's not a religion thread. It's a homophobia in religion thread.

    NC legislator uses 'queers,' 'fruitloops' in anti-gay e-mail to fellow Republicans

    I find that email to be offensive to breakfast cereals of all types. I guess he's an anti-tasycerealite.

    The Disappearance of Molly Norris

    "Of the past" being the operative concept. We've moved on, the Middle East has yet to do so.

    The Disappearance of Molly Norris

    Spelling? That's the best you can call out? Wow. How lame.

    Should political advertisements be banned?

    Nobody has answered a very important question: beyond the need to have some minimum amount of money to get some sort of message out, does the amount of money correlate with guarantees winning? Yes, if the solution is more egregious than the problem or useless. IOW, don't just screw with...
