    600W enough for 9800 GTX SLI?

    I placed my order for a second GeForce 9800 GTX to do SLI this weekend without giving the power supply a second thought. Now I'm giving it that second thought and wondering if I've got enough to power. The 9800 GTX specs say: Minimum 550 Watt for SLI mode system. (Minimum recommended power...

    Thoughts on Sennheiser CX-500???

    I am considering these as a replacement for the iPod ear buds. Does anyone have these? What do you think of them? Are they comfortable? How do the highs, mids, and lows sound? How well do they block out outside sounds? techfuzz

    Framed Print of Clemson's Death Valley?

    For my buddy's 30th birthday, I would like to get him a framed print of the stadium. The problem is that the only prints I can find in the stores at the mall are of what the stadium looked like before the most recent renovations. I'd like to find a print that is what the stadium looks like...

    Remote Access Software

    Nope, that'll be too difficult for them to setup because it requires adjusting the router/firewall/NAT to allow RDP through. They can't do that. Add to that the IP address issue and it's a real nightmare. I need something easier like they go to a website or something just as easy as that...

    Remote Access Software

    I need to be able to remotely connect to my parent's computer whenever they have a computer problem. It's got to be easy for them to load/use whenever I need to connect. Something free/open source would be preferable.p I've heard of, but haven't used something called LogMeIn. It sounds...

    what remote software can be used to track down a stolen laptop that logs onto the internet?

    There are a number of companies out there that have this type of service. Dell for example has their own branded program that allows you to track and recover a stolen laptop if it connects to the Internet or if your laptop has GPS. It is basically LoJack for laptops. It can either be built...

    Looking for mapping information w/ .NET

    WannaFly, I've looked into this before and you're correct that it does violate the terms of service for all the free services. Your only legal solution is to buy or subscribe to one of these services if you want it to be entirely contained within your intranet. As an alternative, you could...

    SQL Server problem *sigh*

    Dhaval00, the standard practice is to put the OS on one drive (RAID 1), the logs on another drive (RAID 1), and database on another drive (RAID 5). With a decent backup solution in place that does either partial or full backups on a daily basis, you'll greatly limit your risk to catastrophic...

    Intranet website accessible from Internet?

    Intranet website accessible from Internet?

    We can't give them mobile broadband cards because of client security restrictions (i.e. federal government). These people only have web access. Any and all access to our systems must be via the web so that means email, ftp, and intranet must be web-enabled for them. We have an extranet setup...
