    Ballmer: You Want XP, We'll Keep XP

    Keep! Vista is the WinME of the OS world. Nice try, Microsoft. Decent ideas, but hopefully Windows 7 will put it all together.

    April Fool’s Day Prank Ideas

    The Intel boards with integrated video have quick-keys for this. CTRL+SHIFT+ARROW I think. You could map that to space or enter and that'd be fun. Hrm - might have to try that actually. =)

    Before Making a Thread About Buying a PSU....

    I'll be installing a 450W Nspire with the 24-pin ATX power connector in a new computer tonight. I'll post my impressions later. Components going into the new system: - Asus P5AD2 Deluxe (i925x chipset) - P4 3.2 GHz 1MB/800FSB - 2 x 512MB Corsair Value DDR2 PC2-4200 - eVGA 6800GT...

    Video Editing - How does nVidia stack up to ATI?

    Good info from the [H]orde as usual. Thanks guys =) Trans, why do you say the 6800 GT doesn't accelerate as well as the 6600 or 6800 vanilla? I thought it went 6600 GT < 6800 < 6800 GT...what's the difference that I'd notice?

    THE Memory FAQ

    What's TCCD? Maybe the FAQ could benefit from a glossary compiled of RAM terms. Most are already in there and a quick CTRL-F helps find them. Here's the best definition I could find on Google: http://www.dslreports.com/faq/11329

    Price vs. Performance

    Attention! You do not need antivirus!

    If you guys who aren't running AV or a Firewall and say "I don't have any viruses", how do you even know? There could be a trojan or a worm sitting quietly in your computer, waiting for you to shop online, or submit a password, or just being a zombie, waiting to DDoS some hapless IP address...
