Re: RAM question

I put the second stick in. Everything seems to be pretty snappy, even though I heard it will run at the slower speed. I just learned the bios doesn't allow me to increase the video ram above 128. Thanks!

RAM question

I just inherited my sister's old laptop running XP Home. It had two sticks of 256 DDR 333Mhz PC 2700 RAM in it. I took both out and bought 1GB of DDR400 PC3200. This laptop has no dedicated video card so it is pulling 128MB from my 1GB of RAM. My question is can I, and would it be safe, and would it...

Re: PS3 Price Drop

Very tempting. I really want a PS3 but I'm afraid it might interrupt school. Walmart has a deal now, $300 for an extra controller, headset, blueray remote and "Game of your choice". I just got a $100 gift card from thankyou.com too... Hrm...

Anybody want to play Portal 2 on Xbox Live?

Please add me. Gamertag is Jahinxaboy. Multiplayer looks awesome but it is lame with random matchups

Re: I bought an iPad 2! What apps do I need?

Why didn't you like the Xoom? I really thought the force closing of apps would have been taken care of with the new version of android. I understand there are just bad app programmers, but Google Books was crashing every time I rotated the damn screen. Also it was kind of heavy and the screen would...

Re: E3 2011 Opinions

Definitely Skyrim, Rage, Bioshock Infinite, Arkham City and Battlefield 3

Maybe Saints Row 3 and Driver San Fran

That's more than I've gotten out of the past couple E3s. Plus Duke Nukem will definitely be awesome.

Re: Book Recommendations

I read a lot of books when I was in China. My favorite was A Fine Balance. That means you should read it too. Plus it was on Oprah's book list so it's super awesome.

Re: Jobs

Went from location work on a feature film... Sounds cool, I'd like to hear more about this. It was for Invincible, the movie about Vince Papale shot in Philadelphia. Basically my boss would call me in the morning and tell me where to go to. It was total grunt work. One time I was supposed to just w...

Re: Jobs

Went from location work on a feature film, to English teaching in China, to testing cellphone games and now a retirement plan specialist. I'm tired of hopping around. I'll be here until I'm fully vested probably, if not for life. And if anyone is looking in Philly, Scottsdale or Charlotte, I could p...

Re: I bought an iPad 2! What apps do I need?

It's always pissed me off how emulators cost money on mobile devices. That pisses me off too, but I'm not surprised. What does surprise me is, at least on Android, there is no community of developers releasing decent emulators with regular updates for free. I've had an amazing urge to play Sim City...

I bought an iPad 2! What apps do I need?

I've been a faithful Android supporter since my G1 landed on my doorstep on launch day. The Xoom was a massive disappointment for me and I returned it. This is my first iDevice. I haven't used iTunes in years, so this is all a big change for me. What are your favorite apps and games for the iPad?

Re: MMOs

WoW. I found it very addicting and played it nonstop for about 4 months. Then I cancelled my subscription before I ended up like one of those people you see on TV... Although I may have to take up BoneyCork on that offer. A 30 hour experience sounds like a lot of fun. I would imagine though the worl...

Re: What an idiot

I dont know man. I hate to say it, but sometimes it's the only way you can get rid of junk. I listed a killer dreamcast hardware only auction awhile back on ebay for $25 and didn't get a single bid. I'm sure I could have sold it if I included that stuff.

For personal use Chrome 6, then Firefox, then IE if there are compatibility problems. I can't wait until Chrome gets official extension syncing. That is gonna be rad.

Re: Anyone here have an Arcade Cabinet?

I retrofitted a Hang on Jr machine for MAME on a serious budget. It even had a working coin door. The only thing that cost a substantial amount of money were the controls and iPac. For my monitor I just used a 27in CRT TV with S-video to some video card my dad pulled out of his "computer parts ...
