    GALLERY! Show off your HTPC!

    In all fairness, any damage to any albums was probably done by me. And the actual count of probable damaged albums is probably pretty low. I have some backup albums that have never left the house and have only been played once or twice. Sooner or later, vinyl will be extinct, or if available...

    ssh Don't arouse the harddrive gods attention. Seriously though, I rely on XMLDrive Image to restore in case of crash. It works for my main workhorse pc. So I hope I can trust it for my mp3 box.

    GALLERY! Show off your HTPC!

    I clean both. But, due to a somewhat mispent youth taking albums to parties and such, some of my albums aren't as pristine as they could be. And, I'm not sure about the stylus. It's been years, but, I think I recall that it's an upgrade. It's a belt drive Vector Research model. I believe when I...

    GALLERY! Show off your HTPC!

    If you'll notice in the left side of the day pic, there is a old tv bunny ear antenna stuck in the wooden vase. That's connected to the Sony --works great. I've tried all kinds of fancy amplified antennas and homemade dipoles, the bunny ears work the best. I have probably 200-250 albums and...

    GALLERY! Show off your HTPC!

    lol Never thought it looked like a face. It is a bright mofo though. It's in the living room and really lights up the room. It's above eye level so not too bad. The Sony model is STR-DE305. Younger brother to yours? Just a basic 2 channel. The other device is a Panasonic 5 disc player from...

    GALLERY! Show off your HTPC!

    So this isn't a full blown htpc. Just a dedicated mp3 server with about 25,000 files connected to my Sony 100w receiver with B&W DM220 speakers (been in use since 1985). I took a $25 midtower and layed it on its side. Fabricated a plain and flat black plexi front bezel to resemble an old school...

    On Call People - Holliday Compensation?

    I service point-of-sale equipment. 24/7 365 every other week. For either phone support or onsite support, I get 40% and my company gets 60%. The best example is clearing a paperjam (many of my customers don't know what needlenose pliers or phillipshead screwdrivers are for lol). If they insist...

    32 bit os with dual channel ram

    32 bit os with dual channel ram

    I'm planning a new build with a dual channel ram capable mobo, but with XP Home until Windows 7 is released. I would like to be prepared for a 64 bit OS and purchase a 4gb (2 x 2) ram kit. Seeing as how XP Home can only use 3.5 +/- gigs, would it still be considered "dual channel"? Or, would a 2...

    The official "clean desktop" club.

    I use a program called poplaunch. It's a quick launch bar that is triggered by mousing over a single pixel in the extreme upper left corner of the screen.

    The official "clean desktop" club.

    Pagan, I downloaded an image of a PCB and tweaked it in Irfanview & MSPaint. The Samurize config is specific to my zipcode. If you like, I can certainly e-mail you the PCB .jpeg. IM me with details.
