    A Young Marine (the real McCoy) Speaks Out

    :thumbsup: to the OP The Iraq war is nothing but BS. Bushco is swimming in the money they made off of it, and American families are swimming in the blood of their loved ones. I'll dance the day Bush swings from a gallows!

    Why did we invade Iraq in your own words

    If you have to ask why Bush invaded Iraq, without observing what has happened afterwards and not comprehending the truth through the B.S., then you must be a member of the Republican Party. And if that sounds like an insult, ask yourself why! Quote: "- Let's not forget the military...

    The Hussein execution is so on schedule ***UPdated He's dead***

    Yes, it's too bad we can't hang the leader of our country as fast as they hung theirs!

    Yes, Bush and Hitler share many similiarities in their actions..

    Would it be so bad to have another nuclear power in the middle-east to balance out Israel? Has India's nuclear power done any harm? (Bush doesn't think so) Would Saddam actually use one if he had it? He didn't use chemical weapons against Israel, did he? He didn't use the against the U.S. troops...

    Microsoft extends Xbox 360 warranty

    Officially this is not a "deal". I hate people who flame posts, and I'm glad this was put here to let everyone know about it. However, there are members of this forum that have a fart about things like this, so I'm all for the posters here litening up a bit about "perfect posts". Thanks for the...

    Cheap Prescription Glasses Thread (as low as $19)

    Let me put my 2c in, if you will. I had Lasik done in 2000, when I was 40. For a few months afterwards, night driving was a real pain. I also had dry eyes for a while. After about 6 months, bith went away, and I had near perfect vision and was in heaven. My eyesight before that was so bad, I...

    Question about SATA

    I would love to see someone explain why one of my drives showed up as a slave, if being a slave is not possible for SATA, and why that changed by moving the connection. PLEASE ONLY REPLY IF YOU ACTUALLY KNOW THE ANSWER.

    Question about SATA

    OK, I posted this when I was at work thinking about it. Now I'm home and had a little time to play with it, and here is what I found. I have a Gigabyte DS3 motherboard, and 2 SATA hard drives. One, the Maxtor, was plugged into the yellow SATA port, while the WD was plugged into the purple SATA...

    Question about SATA

    I have 2 hard drives hooked up to 2 different SATA devices. I would have thought that since they are not on the same chip's ports, they should both be masters. One is showing up as master, the other slave. Does this mean one drive will always be master, while all the rest will be slaves? Will...

    Now can everyone not be so touchy about bumping a month old thread...after all, if a topic is a month old, and someone re-posts it, they hear a ton of crap about it. I got on this deal, and gave the mb to my brother. Cheap chip, throw-away motherboard.

    Getting even cheaper, but here's something a lot of people aren't aware of...NVIDIA has not released any kind of VISTA drivers for the 8800 series video cards, and they don't plan on it until almost February. I did order a 8800gtx from dell that should get here 12-5, but it will kill my vista...

    Dell claims they shipped my 8800GTX and I will have it via DHL on 12-4. 12-4 IT'S HERE!!! I installed it and it is beautiful! Oblivion runs much smoother at 1600x1200 than my7950GX2 could do, and I bumped up the eyecandy to almost full. It's far more responsive outdoors, especially in...

    2 Unrepentant About Selling Katrina Gift

    I would imagine that after they piss most of the money away on crack, that they'll go knocking on another Church's door with the same story looking for a handout. I hope this story gets around enough to stop them next time.

    *** Official Black Friday Sucks Thread ***

    I went into the Best Buy in Joliet, IL off of rt30 & I55 at about 9am this morning. The monitors were sold out, and after realizing that the check out line wrapped from the front of the store all they way to the back, decided to get out of there. So I went to Staples and picked up a couple of 50...

    Men: Top 10 Reasons Why Men Fail With Women

    The reason why "jerks" get all the women is because that's the woman's opinion of the man they're with. When they're trying to cheat on him and take a step up the social and money ladder, you'll hear them call their boyfriend/husband a jerk all the time. When they finally found someone who makes...

    FX-60 newegg strikes again, now back to $456.99

    Hmmm, spend $489.99 for a FX-60, or sell off my old AMD crap, and combine the money with what you want me to spend on this, and go core 2 duo. What's the real deal? IMHO, I sold off my 4200 x2 and went E6300 oc'd to 2.59 with a Gigabyte ds3 motherboard, and never looked back. As a matter of...

    Warm: Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 + ECS agp mobo - $179.98 @ Fry's

    I have to say this may be an option for some people, especially those who have more than 1 computer to speed up. (kids, wifes, etc.) For me, the ecs motherboard is a throw-away, or a sell-on-ebay.

    CA peeps...your microsoft class action settlement check or voucher is in the mail.

    Sapphire X850XT Pci-e *OOS*

    Sorry, I wouldn't buy this card if all I had to pay for is the shipping. I bought one when they were selling for $500 new, and the best thing I did was sell it off as soon as I could. The 6600GT I had before it was MUCH faster, for less than half the price! Why do you think they are selling so...

    X850pro AGP on newegg for $150!

    I owned a 850xt. It was horrible. That's one reason a $500 video card is going so cheap. And no, it's really not that far out of date to explain such a loss in value for what was once ATI's best cards. It simply was not as good as it should have been for all the hype. Check it out on the web.

    AMD Sempron Processor 3100+ & ECS NFORCE3-A Motherboard for $80 at Outpost.com

    Word of WARNING! It's my understanding that ECS is made by SOYO, who screwed a lot of people out of $75 rebates on a motherboard that was bad to begin with, including me. I would NOT buy anything from SOYO or ECS!

    HOT DEAL - MicroCenter X850XT 256 Platinum PCIe 149.00 AR!!

    I hate to say it, but I wouldn't buy this card for $50. I owned one when they first came out, and that was a big waste of money. The 6600gt I upgraded from was just as fast. The 7800GTX I have now is far, far superior. DON'T BUY IT!

    Intel pentium D price cut upto 50%

    I won't agree the 940 is equal to the AMD 3800x2 in performance. I "upgraded" from a 3.2 gig Pentium socket 478 to an AMD 3500, then a 4200x2, and frankly the Pentium was much more responsive. If I had the cash to spare, I would dump the 4200x2 and jump on the 940. Perhaps when I do get some...
