    New college laptop

    I would go for the D830. A lot of universities offer discounts on dell laptops, esp. if you're going into engineering. check there first. IF you can't get a discount, then I would say it's a tossup, and I'm not exactly up to speed on all the current laptops. But I do have a fast D820 if...

    "1080P" monitors

    As I read this on my 15.4 " 1920x1200 screen, I disagree.

    Why does gravity propagate at the speed of light?

    interesting post, mbass. I don't think I have seen that much originality in science for a while.

    True hardware health.

    While I do not know precisely what the effect of on/off cycles is, I will say that my dad has servers in his office that have been running for 10 years basically non stop, and most work fine.

    Another Linear Algebra Proof

    While we're on the subject...did any of yall ever use Paul Foerster's textbooks in HS? For Agebra 1 and 2, pre cal, and cal? Just wondering.

    Need Good Laptop With DVI Out

    All of the dell laptops that have a docking thing on the bottom (includes all latitudes afaik)can output dvi using a D/Port Advanced Port Replicator. You can find them cheap on ebay ($30-$40). This is good if you don't need the dvi port to be portable.

    Blood Pressure Drug Shrinks Lung Cancer Tumors In Mice

    Good to know, I just got put on an ACE Inhibitor, although I don't smoke and there's no family history of lung cancer. BTW I think this is the wrong forum given the current wording of your post. Also, do not plagiarize.

    Why aren't their headphones that use wireless network tech?

    ++ latency doesn't matter in cell phones, but with headphones its a killer. RF give syou the benefit of going straight from EM waves to the audio signal, if im not mistaken. OT: Interesting choice to delurk on.

    Laptop Keyboard Disaster

    Before you take it to a repair place or buy anything, try just putting it in there then taping it tightly together, or some other easy fix. Im trying to think of good ways....maybe rubber bands? Tape might not work because of the heat. (maybe, if it gets hot there). If there's no damage to the...

    Why is my computer restarting?

    I have almost the exact same issue. Question: does touching / hitting / knocking your case affect it at all? Doing so to mine will almost guarantee a restart, yet left untouched it will run for days. I think its either an HDD or PSU issue. HDD because my harddrives frequently don't show up /...

    Colliding Water spheres in space?

    From the looks of it, a lot of the collisions would be elastic (think pool balls), while some of them would be inelastic, ie the two spheres join together and move off as one big sphere (or stay put if they were colliding head on with the same amount of momentum). The reason for this is...
