Hey all! Yesterday I purchased a few Tyan Transport GT24 Dual Opteron Based 1U Barebones Server and for the life of me cannot figure why they are discounted for over $350 cheaper (I bought them for $99 each) than everywhere else. So my question is, was this a good buy? Is there any reason for...

I am currently a college student but I have some pretty good experience in IT. My teacher made a statement and I'd like to find out if its true:
The question is, how do frames (which I am more interested in) and packets travel across the internet?
His answer:
An IP packet's source and...
I notice the Macbook has a VGA and a DVI output. Is it possible to run 2 external monitors off of them while simultaneously running your Macbook's monitor? Any products out there for this?
While the Mac is an awesome platform for just about everything (IMO), I'm skeptical of its performance in gaming. It seems that the graphics card options are spare and pretty far behind.
I will soon be purchasing a Mac Pro and I'm hoping the quality of the processor, memory, etc might make...
Hey you guys, I consider myself an intermediate computer user (compared to the gurus around here that make me feel small sometimes), but I am farely new to Linux. I can yum and apt all day but i have no idea how to compile from source nor have I found a guide that gives me the ins and outs of...
Imagine...3 devices: Mac, Bluetooth headset, modem.
1) Is it possible (should it be possible) to connect your Mac to the wall via a modem and
2) use your bluetooth headset to answer and talk on the phone, and
3) use your Mac (software) to dial a number
So I'm interested in buying a Mac Pro Quad-core Leopard driving machine but I'm curious...how often does Apple bring down its prices on the Mac Pro or upgrade components and leave the system at the same price? any predictions?
My wireless card worked fine on XP(and Ubuntu LiveCD), but it is not even detected in Vista. I don't even get a yellow question mark in Device Manager! What gives?
My little brother tried to hook my computer up to no avail. Basically he totally messed up all the pins on the monitor's VGA cable. What is the best way to fix the VGA cable for this Sony monitor.
Hey...is it possible to install Mac OS X on an external firewire drive? I want to use my external firewire as my main disk and the hard drive inside my Mac Mini (75% slower access) as my secondary.
Thanks
Hey you guys, I have tested and come to the conclusion my processor is dead (i have 2). I am under warranty with AMD, but I'm afriad they won't RMA it because I currently have Arctic Silver 5 on the top of it.
Should I be concerned? If so, what should i do?
I have never been able to successfully dual boot windows and linux. I can install both OS's fine, but GRUB can never seem to load Windows once linux is installed.
I have tried mainly two different ways:
1) Install Windows (leave unpartitioned space for linux)
2) Install Linux in...
Hey all..my Suse will not load after Suse install. I completely wiped my disk, installed windows xp, installed suse...and unfortunately i get this error when grub tries to boot windows:
root (hd0,0)
Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x7
chainloader +1
what do i do?
Hello everyone. I visited my college's Linux User Group install fest today, unfortunately I still have some problems:
When I boot on my monitor (i used a better one @ setup), Suse begins to load but my monitor blanks out and asks me to check my display settings once i get to the login screen...
Here's my situation. I live on a college campus. The network admins in are 100% against LAN routers on their network. I believe if I can use the router without advertising DHCP and keeping my MAC consistent on packets, I won't be "etected".
1) Is this possible?
2) Is there anything else that...
I touched that silvery, sticky stuff on the bottom of my heatsink. When reading the instructions, it states:
Is that what I touched; do I need to contact AMD?
I contacted Monarch Computers to see why they didn't sell the Epox motherboards that are somewhat praised around here. Well this is what they had to say...
:Q Is this possibly an incorrect price?!? I dont know whether to buy now or hold out a few more days/weeks!
Clawhammer $345
Newcastle $399
Zipzoomfly has same prices!!!
I'm looking at buying a used A64 3400+, but AMD site states that the warranty applies only to the original purchaser? Has anyone ever puchased from joe average user and been denied warranty?
I'm looking to build a server (home lab) for technical training. It will run some pretty intensive applications/OSs on my A64 2800+.
I'm looking at newegg and I see several motherboards for pretty good prices. But I also noticed CHAINTECH's "VNF3-250" nForce3 250 motherboard. It doesn't have...
Hey all...i'm looking for price/performance. I'm willing to buy the A64 3400. I've heard people state it will OC to about the 3700.
1) I guess my main question is...what overclocks "more" from its original clock spped...the 3400+ or 3200+?
2) which would you get?
I just ordered a Maxtor 7200RPM SATA HDD from newegg.com. It was $20 more than its IDE Ultra ATA predecessor. Is SATA worth the extra cash if you're not getting the Raptor? Does it offer any performance increase?
I just had to get the word out; the X800 XT Platinum being sold at the price of the Pro version. :D
Gateway Accessory Store has a new 10% off accessories coupon code: SAVE10TVAC.
ATI Radeon X800XT Platinum card for only $434.95 - 10% code: SAVE10TVAC = only $391.45, $7.50 shipping.
Thank you...

I guess my main question is...how often do mobo prices decrease signifcantly?
Anyone have any idea when the new AMD 64's are coming out
