Keep the necro alive!
All I know is I had a Cadillac CTS with a higher compression ratio that would run like s*** if I didn't put the expensive gas in it.
I also had a Yamaha R1 with about a 15k redline and I strongly believe they aren't as reliable. Sure they are extremely reliable...
I went the gaming laptop route when I went back to school a couple years ago. Regretted it after week 1. They are heavy to lug around and even though you get used to it, it's still a pain. But the main problem I had was the poor battery life for a whole day of class use. So I was always fighting...
I have wanted a Surface Pro since they first one came out. I use a first gen Surface RT now for almost everything, and the included Office suite is pretty useful. I wouldn't want to write a novel on the thing though.
Anyhow, instead of getting more affordable they are touching $2k for the...
Lol, don't want to sound "pro-terrorist" or anything. It's just that this idea of turban wearing terrorists getting on a plane and trying to blow it up is...well, a decade old. It seems unlikely that a plan that worked on one day 10 years ago would be the focus of today. I know there was the...
Best post of the thread! Unfortunately it's true, and can only be explained logically with the correlation that the government wants a massive welfare class. The more people relying on uncle sam, the more power uncle sam ultimately has. Flame on~
Strange though, the Geforce 525M GT for laptops is regarded as a decent gaming GPU and it scores about 300 3DMarks higher than this card in 3DMark06. I think this would be a "good" graphics card for a spare gaming PC or kid's PC if the games were mostly older. Benchmarks show this can play...
I'll finally be upgrading soon, and was wondering if something exists that would be a relatively safe bet for BF3 at high settings and preferably 1080P. I know the game is not out, but assuming BF3 is 25% more demanding that BFBC2 (just a guess) gives me a starting point.
Will I have to...
Hmm... this sounds plausible, very much so in fact. I could test it out by enabling location based services and seeing if they still worked. I'll give this a try, thanks! You said effectively kill it though, as in not entirely. What could still be done using it I wonder?
Also about cellular...
Cool story, but I don't need to be engaged in something "shady" to not want Apple watching my location. And losing my phone in between my seats is hardly an argument for letting companies have unbridled access to my whereabouts.
Actually on point to my initial request, I've also read that with...
Thanks, I did go to oo.apple.com, but it still wasn't that assuring to me.
And the whole thing about the FCC is concerning as well. So you're saying it's illegal for a person to turn off cellular data on their own device, under the guise of 911 emergency services?
Back to my original...

Now, what got me thinking about this in the first place was a recent update to Apple's EULA for all their products. It states that Apple reserves the...
Dang for $57 from Deal Extreme I would jump on it anyway. If it works, you got a great deal. If it doesn't, I'm sure you could remove the case, format, and have a 250Gb hard drive that you could keep or sell.
I just rented the game and I'll give a brief review, although EA servers appear to be down and I could only play the campaign.
I really enjoy the hit/targeting mechanics. It seems to be a little more realistic than MW2. Not every bullet is a hit precisely where the reticule is, and that's a...
In an unrelated post about Amazon Prime, I inquired as to why I now had to pay taxes on purchases made from Amazon.com. I was informed that it was my state (Oklahoma), not Amazon requiring the sales tax.
After looking it up, sure enough HB2359 was passed in June that requires me to do just...
Last time I ordered something from Amazon they charged me tax, which seriously peeved me off. They've never done this before, and I think I'm going to cancel my Prime membership because of it.
Anybody else getting hit with tax that never has before?
This should do it:

It goes in and out of stock, they had it on Amazon but it was $50 more. Could be the best deal going for a budget gaming laptop. Plus it's thin and gets good battery life! What more could you want for $750?
I don't think you are more concerned about your own life dude. What if someone is pulling out in front of you and you're busy typing "Lol I know right!" Or what if a child rides their bike out in front of you? You may be capable of driving "well enough" while texting, but it's cold hard fact...
I think you're on to something. People, teenagers in particular, need to realize that driving is not some God-given right in this country. You have to show you are capable and rational.
Texting while driving? 1st offense: $700 fine, no BS'ing your way out of paying. 2nd offense or 1st...
I picked up one of these Smiths a few months ago:

They're cheap, extremely accurate, and well made. If you want a 9mm to get back into shooting with, you could do much worse. Plus they look better in person (at least mine did)...
The .40 for me personally is about my least favorite round. Yes it has great ballistics on paper, but it's just too snappy for me to actually want to shoot it (something you need to do A LOT of).
Besides, current 9mm+P (still not as snappy as .40) are within 92-95% of the lethality as the...
I have a wife and son, we both work and I go to school. Both our jobs still couldn't get us by for my first year back so I had to take out a student loan. We needed it for bills, groceries... just a little bit here and there to make it comfortable so we weren't scrounging. You won't have to pay...
Yes, they can be. I work with the developmentally disabled and one resides in the primary house I work in. Very emotionally confused. When I first started he would wink at me consistently and tell me that I could take a nap in his bed if I felt tired. We have to monitor his behavior in public...
It DOES mean less. Not because they are not as "valuable," but because there are reasons that many of this 46 million are not covered, when in fact they could be.
I'm not trying to trivialize young people, I am one lol! I make $30K per year as a college student (I'm 25) and don't carry...
Wow, way to over-react. To specify, I'm talking about healthcare rationing that involves more patients, same amount of doctors - which seems like even routine visits and operations will need to be rationed.. I'm trying to remain non-partisan, but your numbers are very misleading.
For example...
But predominately liberal talk radio (NPR) is.
EDIT: I get what your saying, didn't want to appear like a troll. I'll be honest, I listen to conservative talk radio almost on a daily basis, but I don't quite understand what you are saying.
At least the radio stations I listen to are...
Also, while most of your post is very concise and well thought out, I do believe you need to define this so called assumption of "give VITAL medical care to anyone who needs it." Because in a way we already do - the ER. I understand you probably are referring to a working healthcare system. I...
I bought it for the PS3 without even trying the demo. I really thought it would be impossible for me to like this game because I really suck on console FPSs. However it's actually fairly enjoyable. Wake Island brought back memories (of BF2 oddly) and it's a blast! $15 well spent.
That said...
I don't know why, but that music the BF series has been using lately REALLY amps me up! I can't wait!
PS3 name RevolutionN0W for those who plan to get this, ad me!
Trust me 1440x900 is PERFECT for this computer. I have a Gateway P7805u-FX with the vaunted 1920x1200 and personally don't think its a good fit. Its good real estate, but the GPU (based on a 9600GT) has to work harder and web browsing isn't very pleasurable.
Since the 260M is based on a...
Okay, I've always regretted not joining the military fresh out of high school. I'm 24 now, and after taking a few years off I'm about to enter my junior year of college.
I'm not set on branch, probably Army but I have some questions and the local recruiter is more concerned about another...
Wow... Yea I would say this is pretty hot. You can get the Clevo barebones with this in a 15" size for the same price from rjtech.com if you have the other components.
