Well think its time to build a dedicated media PC.
It will be hooked upto my Sharp LCD by VGA since I am not 100% impressed with its HDMI.
The sound will pip out via optical.
Looking to do something small form that I can have on the entertainment stand.
This is what I came up with.
http://i48.tinypic.com/oqwpwp.jpg
This is my current rig that is using hdmi to route VIDEO sound to the TV, then TV passes audio to revceiver over RCAs as it wont pass the hdmi over to Optical..
http://i50.tinypic.com/2dcgy2h.jpg
Ill leave the current PC in tact for just a surfer , I plan on not having a monitor on the new one, and use a bluetooth keyboard/mouse.
Thoughts?
Will be going through my works purchase plan (they provide a cheque) so it needs to be bought from one place, and I have done my last order through Wintronic.
I've been out of the PC scene for a bit..
Not sure on OS yet, but was planning on running XBMC as my GUI.

Have you ever had issues with the OCZ drives? I ran 2 60GB Vertex 2's in Raid 0 for about 2 years without any issues, then switched to a Vertex 3 about 6 months ago. Again, no issues whatsoever. The Vertex 4's are apparently a bit slower than the Vertex 3 because OCZ decided to switch the memory controllers that are used. They may have SLIGHTLY better longevity. But again, I've never had issues with the OCZ SSD's that I've used.

So is Daniel Craig still reppin the Bond character? I'm DEF gonna check this flick out :thumbsup
I'm a bond fan, but the thing that just irked me to nooo end was the earlier bond flicks would have Bond doing an underwater fight seen for instance, and he comes strutting out of the water on some resort beach with his Tux on.......and not a drop of F**($(CKIN water drippin off, his hair immaculate, and not even a wrinkle on his Tux ! ! ! ! I mean W the FU*$&K T F ????!!!!
And they were too nice of a character in my view.
That just soured my view on em.
I mean, if anyone has ever been a brawl before ( I have not, but I"ve seen a few), they will know that after a fight, your knuckles are raw, cut...your suckin air bigtime, and your wasted... no energy..and your dirty from rollin on the ground.
I remember seeing the first Daniel Craig Bond flick Casino Royale, I was like "YYYYYYYYEEEEESSSSS that's how Bond is supposed to be! ! ! :D
REal, hardcore, badass, dark humor, and a chip on his shoulder.
na DATS the Bond I like to see ...my 2 cents

I think they should definitely be focusing more on things like that which require common sense (along with how to merge properly on a highway/how to let other people merge, proper use of left hand lanes, and how to actually use a 4 way stop, etc) before failing a student for not pulling up the e-brake on a pretend highway emergency stop. :S

I agree. I've been finding lately that I've been coming in contact with a lot of people who simply don't even know how to keep their car within their lane. Carelessly swaying across the dashed white lines on the road is something I feel is more common sense than a driving skill. Instructors/testers need to focus on these type of common skills before making the sure the driver can do the more (relatively) fancier things like parallel park, etc.

Argh. I agree.
Got a call at 4am asking if I replace car windows. Still trying to figure out how they got my personal number. A few customers have it but it's not that public.

What kind?
Residential, commercial, high rise?
New construction?
My specialty is high rise residential replacement but I do it all, from industrial hackouts to shower doors. I'd really like to get more into new construction residential( houses). Lots of money to be made and easy as hell.

I do all residential style windows. We do the odd insulated glass unit, but 90% full knock outs. I'm an apprenticing carpenter, but we get a lot of our business through local window manufacturers. Tons of money in it for sure...
The work is generally really easy, but we typically end up taking all the shit when there are problems (like this week)

Yup. I always seem to be at the brunt of the problem. Although I find it easy to defend what I do. Problems usually start elsewhere and I just get blamed.

WTF!!! Almost said goodbye to my car this evening on my way home from work, or worse... to me.
So, I'm on my way home south bound on Dixie at about 6:15pm, made a right turn onto Rathburn. I get into the left lane, just as I do so, I see the headlights of an SUV coming around the bend..... right at me in my lane. I lay on the horn and see that he's still coming at me, so I get my a$$ into the right lane and slow down to almost a crawl. He misses me & the other two cars behind me by an inch or two. I think the A-hole was hammered! Not more then 20 meters later, I come to a stop at a light that is changing to red. 2 seconds after the light is red, another SUV comes up behind me and rips through the red almost taking out two cars.
Is there a full moon out tonight??
