A night of terror....

CrazyKillerMan

Well. . . today started off really well. I wrote an analog integrated circuits exam, and got a 98% on it. Finish my lab up this afternoon and had enough time to tighten up assembly code (stay with me, I am building it up).

GF2 Pro: Resolved

Brian Frank

Well, I don't have the GF2 Pro, but I do have the GF2 Ti. Got the PNY Verto GF2 Ti, and am working on a review of it. It's a slick card visually. I'm probably going to get a different part or two for a friend (can't stand that crappy FIC AZ11 he has.

Shin_Magus

Defense of Via chipsets (or Via doesn't suck)

Brian Frank

I've been aware that Via has problems (you don't say. . . ) and some viscious opponents. Via's Apollo Pro 133/A is crap against the BX. Really? Let's see, at the time Intel offered two new chipsets for the Pentium III: the 810 and the 820.

Check it out: Now this has my attention. I don't have the time nor inclination to fiddle with emulators in Linux, but if the OS is designed from the beginning to handle Windows apps, then I will definately try it out.

Anthrax Infested Topic....do not open !!!

Palos

Leaving aside the tragicomic sound of the subject line, I would like to know what you guys make out of the whole thing? Opinions of any kind are welcomed, the web should be a free speech environment, where if you protest against the airstrikes you won't get laid off by your employer (just read it on CNN yesterday).
