    you're going to lose quality. a lossless video codec is going to result in a file that is at best no smaller than your current source. it may be an acceptable level of loss of quality, which you'll need to assess though.

    Rendering error in windows 7 RC 7100

    i got a hint that it is the driver version from somewhere and was directed to downgrade from version 8.15 to 7.15. i'll report back later if there are any continued issues. edit: the driver occasionally crashes, but things start back up after half a second and nothing seems lost.

    Rendering error in windows 7 RC 7100

    I first noticed this in build 7068, but it still occurs in 7100. I haven't figured out what triggers it, but after a little bit of use, I lose the borders on my windows. You can see it in an empty folder window here. The borders turn a light, partially transparent blue, and stay that way...

    Which windows 7?

    i had trouble with 7068. windows would stop painting and then get filled in with random colors. 7057 didn't have the problem. i haven't tried a different build.

    Virtual machines and viruses

    it would also depend on if you have some kind of shared folder support between the VM and host. for the most part, i think it's mostly a matter of network vulnerability though.

    I want to write a Chess program

    one nice thing about gnuchess is that they separate the underlying engine from the board that interacts with it. you could decide to port either part of it.

    Pascal's Triangle in Java

    do you actually try to calculate "row!"? you don't need to because you can cancel out some of the calculation in the denominator.

    another Vista 32 or 64 " should I ? " question

    i don't need it, but i use firefox as my default browser and i run IE by typing iexplore <url> at a run prompt. by default, that launches the 64-bit version, which lacks flash. i didn't bother changing my paths or typing habits to target the 32-bit version.
