    Gears of War is AWESOME

    Agreed that it is great, especially if you play it with a friend. Too bad there isn't enough story though. Hopefully there will be a GOW2 with more explanation.

    I just purchased a SATA harddrive, and realized that my motherboard does not support SATA. Is there any kind of hardware which would let me use SATA? And if so, what would be a good brand/model for a reasonable price?

    I tried using the trial version of GetDataBack for NT last night, and left the program on all night (about 8 hours). When I woke up, it was still scanning and it was still at 0% progress. How long is the scanning supposed to last?
