I use AVG free. Up until about 2 months ago I used Norton/symantec for almost 10 years

This thread offends me

I agree the artist has a choice and in the end $$$$ is all that counts, for most people, but not me - usually

I will say this I am guilty. In the past year I have made a very high return on my money in the stock market. I invested in energy, tobacco, and well walmart. I have recently divested myself of these stocks. I have decided and started to give away over time 75% of the gains. I have also started to support not-for-profits. The guilt was too much. I guess I will stick with my government salary it is fair. Having a conscious is very hard. This means my pc upgrades will have to wait longer than my planned spring 07 time-line.

Didn't they just open a store in China? Ikea has. The Chinese ministry is addicted to starbucks and Coke (the drink).

I think they made a mistake when they stopped supporting my WindowsME. Patching all the security holes in ME has become a full-time job for me. Just kidding - The point being they are in business to make money. XP Home addition was just a lure to get you hooked to MS. Even if they wanted to they could not afford to support XP forever.

Shaolin95 - I am sure you have seen the many, many threads/discussions about XFI issues. If you haven't done so, maybe you could detail your success story. You might help a lot of people out pre and post installation.

Mack27 is correct. You don't want to degrade your system with that PSU!!

Bill's office looks alot like mine. I have 2 23" lcds and 1 tablet.

I love my system. 1 year and no problems. None. I will be upgrading my whole system next year. Let's see what DFI will have for us then!!

U probably already know this but here it is anyway: Here is what each of the LEDs mean System startup 4 led’s on, no CPU detected CPU is detected 3 led’s on, memory not working DRAM is detected 2 led’s on, VGA not working VGA is detected 1 led on, unable to load OS I am not sure about the amber light. Now how do you know your CPU is still functioning? You said your last board was RMA'd because it wasn't detecting your CPU and it still sounds like you are having the same problem.

What do u mean price lowered? U said $99 to in your first post.

I would love to talk about why I occasionally have to stay awake 100 + hours straight, but I can't. You would really be surprised at what happens in the world. Wild stuff, mostly wild goose chases. Most people hear and even witness some of what I am not talking about. But that is usually just a small piece of the distributed puzzle. "24" is an entertaining show but way off the mark and completely unrealistic. Any former FT Meade Alumni around here?

I have been up for over 6 days straight. Anyone know if that is a record. Don't ask me why, you don't really want to know. If I explain why I would be called a liar or you would be in denial. Let's just so you can go to sleep (not before me though) knowing the sun will/is rising today. You are welcome and good night

Having lived in and around Chicago all my life, I see more people from the burbs prentending to be hard core, so I guess I agree with you. Consider that 90% if not more of the sales for hard core gangster rap are not in the major cities. CYA and be safe when you take that stroll outside of your cul de sac
