    Upgrade for 5yr old Q6600

    Thanks for the feedback. I was considering the K processor because the price difference was only $10 and it keeps my options open in the future. I went with the Sabertooth board because it looks like it's built with above-average quality components. Maybe I just bought into the marketing...

    Upgrade for 5yr old Q6600

    Current system (in sig) is now over 5 years old. I'm about to start a new round of Microsoft certification testing which means deploying virtual servers running Windows Server 2008R2, Server 2012, and the Microsoft System Center suite as part of my study/prep routine. Current: Intel C2Q...

    Apple's Siri Let's Anyone Use A Locked iPhone 4S

    If it bothers you, you can EASILY disable Siri while the phone is locked. I just wish there was a prompt when enbaling Siri rather than defaulting to this access being allowed. Scroll down for screenshot...

    iOS5 on iPhone3GS?

    Understood, and I agree. I don't have to like it though. That said, I did pre-order a 4S... just waiting for tracking info so they did get me this round.

    iOS5 on iPhone3GS?

    I agree with all of the above. iOS 5 is definately an improvement.... 4.3.2 was almost unusable on my 3GS due to poor memory management and pruning. If I closed apps constantly, it wasn't too bad, but otherwise it was almost unusable. But so far with iOS 5, no slow performance issues even...

    Wardriving ((( i )))

    A friend and I used to drive just to see how many we could find; it became a sport. We intended to do some analysis of discovered AP's along a defined route and to chart the growth in the use of wireless networking as well as wireless security functionality. My setup was a Dell Latitude P3...

    PlayON in a VM?

    I had PlayOn in an XP VM (under VMware Workstation 6.5) when I was on the trial period. Since purchasing it, I'm running it directly on my main Win7-64 machine. It seems to perform pretty similarly in both situations for me. It works pretty well overall, but sometimes there are just issues...

    VCP 410 is no joke.

    You sure about this? I've seen nothing about this anywhere, and I also wasn't asked which version (Windows or Linux) that I wanted like I was when I took the VI3 test. Also, VMware's site indicates they are extending availability for the VI3 test, but that the vSphere4 upgrade offer is still...

    Playon for $20 exp 11/30 at midnight

    This is definately a great deal; this promotion makes it 50% off. I picked this up a week ago on this same deal after going through a couple trial periods with the software. For those of you with an XBox or PS3, give this a look. I use it regularly to stream shows from Hulu to my TV via my...

    Any one in here use PCoIP compliant systems?

    Link? My company's been waiting for View 4 to test the PCoIP functionality but no luck getting it so far. It was announced on Monday 11/9, but it's not available yet to people who have licenses for View 3, nor is the demo available for download. My understanding, both from our VMware TAM...

    Civilization IV Complete - $19.99 on Steam

    I've been watching it since it was released too, and as far as I saw the main complaint was that the game was pretty buggy initially. I did some quick research before jumping on the deal yesterday and it seems that most of the big issues have been worked out.

    Civilization IV Complete - $19.99 on Steam

    You sold me. Steam needs to quit having these 50% off deals. I'm buying more games than I have time to play. I just picked up Empire: Total War and now I have to divide my time between it and Colonization. The wife is sure to love this. :D

    Does anyone know if Colonization is any good? I already own Civ4 and the BTS expansion (CD version), but for the price....

    VCP 410 is no joke.

    What study methods are you all using for VCP410? Book? Lab? Class? I'll be upgrading my VCP3 before the end of the year as well. I'll be using a combination of this book in addition to studying in both my personal lab as well as my employers lab which I am currently implimenting. Also...
