    Quick Logitech G15 Question

    The winkey+L will instantly lock the computer as well if you're on xp and might 2000. Its almost as good as a dedicated key. You could also program one of the G keys for that combo to get a single key solution.

    Reliable router for small business

    One of em was run off a UPS the other was run off an APC surge protector. They're both in an open environment in a back room seperate from the auto shop stuff with the rest of the phone/internet equipment so they probably pick up some junk but not much more than the computers in the front...

    supertalent = ?

    Supertalent is a mixed bag, we had a stick come thru our shop recently where the heatspreader had fallen off and it was a stick of corsair value select under it. Who knows what it actually is but from my experience its atleast reliable ram, not really overclocker friendly though.

    Someone explain this to me...[Stability, AMD vs Intel]

    This was about the time of the bad caps and so most of the value boards in this era had those kinda problems. Nothing to do really with AMD or VIA just mobo manufacturers being cheap or not knowing they were buying faulty caps.
