    Why the Kyoto treaty is a very very very bad idea

    Although this doesn't add to the answer of Kyoto yes, Kyoto no, the following statements are addressed to how to discuss a certain topic. Saying: 'But this didn't give an answer to that specific part of my argument so your whole post sucks' is not the way to discuss a topic. State which...

    Worst movies ever made in the life of the galaxy

    I have to agree with most of the crap-'o'-rama posted in this thread, but I have to disagree with lock, stock and 2 smoking barrels, it was actually funny. (If you liked it too, Snatch is a movie for you to see, it's even better)

    Is it OK to fold IDE cables?

    I wouldn't recommend origami with your IDE-cables, but a little folding won't do any harm. Round cables might become a problem if your cable has to follow a certain narrow path (they are thicker then flat cables), but i guess you'd have a really screwed mobo lay-out for that

    Help! Which Graphics card is the one to go for?

    If you value DVD over gaming, the radeon is indeed your best choice. It has the best TV-out you can find and a lot of MPEG-hardware assistance. Gaming performance is more or less equal to a GeForce MX

    A7V133 doesn't recognize ATA 100

    by default the promise controller is set as ata100 controller; however there is a jumper with which you can change the controller to raid. perhaps you should check the online manual for which jumper that is and then check if it's accidentally set to raid. and make sure you have set load ata...
