    Loud Fan

    I have a DFI Lanparty motherboard with a very loud chipset fan. I bought the Evercool VC-RE fan from jab-tech.com. It was $8, fit perfectly and is very quiet. Jeff

    Java v.s .NET job?

    C# supports this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/02/06/XMLC/default.aspx. From Visual Studio you select "Tools -> Build Comment Web Pages" to extract the XML comments and turn them into javadoc style web pages. With VB.Net, I think you have to use a 3rd-party tool like nDoc. Jeff

    Java v.s .NET job?

    Yeah, like 95% identical. Which is a good thing. I graduated in 99. I started out working on a ASP/Sql Server project for about a year. Then learned java for a project using EJB / JSP / Oracle. After doing Java for a couple years, I switched to .Net and have been doing that ever since...

    Lost Coast should be out tonight

    I hadnt followed any of the news leading up to it, and just thought it was a free expansion to the game. But a tech demo that takes 5 minutes to complete was kind of a let-down.

    monarch computer ? back to being good ?

    I live near the Monarch office / warehouse. I went in to pick up parts for my new PC a couple weeks ago. Prices are the bomb. Phone support was terrible, took a long time to get anyone from sales to return my call. I called in the order, and asked to pick it up later that day. When I...

    Try copying all the files from both install cd's onto your hard drive first. They can all be copied to the same root directory. Then run the installer from the hard drvie and it will work. Or re-burn the image as mentioned above.

    Need some quick Java help

    Yes there is a way to do this, I have done it in a java app long ago. I dont remember hte code, but I think it was system.out.reset or something like that. I used it to keep a progress-meter drawing on the same line of the console. JP

    Battlefield 2 + joystick + choppers

    I have played the BF series since the beginning. I have never flown much, although I got pretty good with choppers in BF:Vietnam using the keyboard. I decided to try out a joystick with BF2, so I picked up a Saitek Cyborg Evo today. It works really well with planes. If I let off the stick...
