I'm actually thinking of getting one.  My wife has an interest in one, despite the fact that she already has a fairly powerful Core2 laptop already...

Two iPads were being used as slideshow screens for my son's private school campus day event... /facepalm.

the good news is they will (at least that's what I read) add multitasking with a software update

I lived with my uncle for about 2 months while he had one.  And on vacation the people we rented the house from had 4 to use.  So I've been around them a lot, yeah.  Good time wasters and good for specific applications (theirs controlled their lights, sound systems in rooms and TV remote).  Other than that, pretty useless.

Wait for the second-gen. Never buy 1st-gen Apple products.

$80 for a 500GB IDE HDD to put in the external enclosure I already have...
$73 / $95 / $120 for a 1TB / 1.5 TB / 2 TB HDD with the enclosure included...

Fucking technology. Clearly I should go for the $73 for the external TB, but then really I should go for the $95 for 1.5 external TB since it's less $/TB, but then I really should go for the 2 TB since it's even less $/TB. Spending more money than I should right now...

I do and I love it (although I don't know if I'd buy one at full price).

I turn my computer on so much less these days, because I do all my basic web browsing on that.



It's just so easy to use for the little things.

I fucking love the Phenom II X2 CPU I bought... runs at 55C with 1.425VCore at 3.8Ghz and unlocked to an X4 (Quad Core). This thing is seriously the best $90 I've ever spent in my life.

Nice.  I am myself considering getting the 1090T Thuban.  Mass Effect 2 is using all four cores in my 965.

Overclock it?

What's the easiest tweak to get it over 3.8?  I've got a push-pull H50.

All I did was set the multiplier to 19x and increase the VCore until it passed in LinX. I'm using a CNPS9700 cooler.

does anyone know if you can get the sexy black xbox controllers for windows-pc?

or do they just work with the USB-wireless dongle?

i.e. buy a black controller as if for xbox... and then sync it to the windows wireless thing

looking to get one

Was it difficult to unlock the other 2 cores? and are they more unstable than the first 2?

jeez im not interested in getting the screwdriver and soldering iron out to mod a USB cable...

afaik they don't do PC-version black xbox controllers with a USB cable

so i'm guessing it's purchase standard wireless one + usb windows dongle, right?

Bingo. And because it's Microsoft, it's generic p'n'p as well.
