Once again the desperation of the left wing to cast darkness over light is astounding. There is no objective measurement whereby one can claim with any legitimacy that the American economy is not strong right now. It is simply an empirical fact. On a more anecdotal level, isn't interesting...

Noob question here. I'm selecting the OS for my new rig, and I've read several threads here on MCE. One of them (forget which) implied that there were compatability issues with certain newer games not running properly in MCE. Is this accurate? Is it hardware driver related?

Ok...now you're amusing me. You grow more vitriolic with each ideological pounding you have suffered. I did not ignore you last post. I read all of it quite closely...I then pointed out to you that it did not answer my question. You gave general theories on opinions on what 'should' work, but...

I have not put any words in your mouth, those that you have placed there of your own free will do a sufficient job of embarrassing you. You have yet to answer my question. Which nation serves as the better model that reflects the values you espouse coupled with economic expansion over a...

There is no better model? Oh, good to hear...I didn't want to purchase a rickshaw. I do agree with you on the abuse of our current system. If we do not begin to control spending on erroneous social issues and government hand outs, our deficits will continue to spiral in a very unhealthy...

OK...then which model are you offering. BTW, please refute my logic with logic, not the very fluff you decry. What did I 'read into' your response that was not there? Did I miss the economic model you offered? If so, I apologize.

Are you taken credibly here despite these unfounded personal attacks? I understand your post count is high, but I am sorry if I do not find that, or your acerbic personal labels intimidating. I am still awaiting your response to your obfuscation on the China post.

Wow. Now that was personal, and very intellectually dishonest. Please go back a read the posts again. In summary, I asked "which nation would you prefer to mimic economically?". You responded with "China is in a prett **** good growth spurt right now". Hence, you are offering China as the...

I can't believe it! You bit! I figured there was no way you'd actually fall into that trap. So China is the better economic model. If only we could revert our infrastructure to its 1940's status, add about 800,000,000 people, and totally ignore all of the environmental, labor, and human...

Your labeling me as an apologist is the only thing that is baseless here. Please tell me which nation on earth you would prefer to mimic economically? I am very curious as to who is doing better right now. Please educate me. EDIT: BLAST! I just responded to a thread from someone with a...

Riiight....that's why we can't find A8n32's and XBOX 360's anywhere, right? American's are struggling to pay for heat. Man, I hate going to the empty malls around my area too....everyone's really feeling the squeeze. :roll: Again....if only we had growth like our socialist neighbors in Europe!

Wow. I never wander into the political forums of technically oriented web sites, and now I know why. This has to be some of the most poorly digested Michael Moore pablam I have ever been exposed to. FYI... the growth in jobs throught the 3rd and 4th quarter has been surprisingly high in...

:D I like the idea...but chastising a Fry's employee for lack of expertise? Seems a bit like requesting your quarter-pounder medium rare.... unrealistic expectations. It's my fault for not researching it enough first and being mezmerized by shiny chrome.

YES! The sweet big screen is in the works!!! Is this the consensus here regarding 512's & SLI? That it would be smarter to go 256's now rather than 1 512 now and another one later? This surprises me, as the benchmark testing I have seen seemed to suggest a single 512 like the MSI or BFG...

Really? Why is this? If the cards come down by 50% or so in a few months, why would it not be an economical price v. performance equation to pop in a second card and go SLI? Seems the thread has gone a bit awry... to summarize, I will pick up the 600 watt Seasonic today. Since I bought the...
