They're a hardware test site AFAIK, but I don't think anyone would actually buy 9 of them in reality though so what's the point.
given the uncertainty inherent in fancy new bits and the limited lifespan on a SSD I'd probably be running several in raid for redundancy purposes.
how does the data transfer rate compare to SAS (4 gb/s in certain configs I think) ? I'm still pretty confident that's the way to go for the next few years.

8800 = antialiasing and full on pixel shader effects at high resolutions due to having the double memory bandwith of the 8600
8600 = less texture thrashing when playing games on account of it having double the memory - but less fancy effects and performance will drop off quite sharply at high resolutions
erm
i'd probably go for the 8600 if i had a monitor that displayed at 1280x1024 or less purely because it has more memory (256 isn't really enough these days).
If i had a shiny new monitor like mine that displays at a much higher resolution I'd buy a 512mb 8800 gt and figure out how to justify the extra outlay later.
edit:
that's all with gaming in mind - if you're not all that bothered about games get the 8600

Been looking around for a bmx to buy this year, and found the WETHEPEOPLE TRUST to be a gd buy, wat are people's forts on it?
and does anyone hav 1?
If that's the one down from the 4 seasons it's worth having - anything cheaper than that one (350 ish) doesnt have a full cromo frame so it'll kill you and weigh too much
under £300 you only have a couple of options - khe triple threat and the 24/7 seem to be the best bikes for that money

I'm pretty sure this is the only answer in this thread that's correct:
Just do it 3x -there's no real point in doing anything else. Read up about it if you want, but it's easier just to trust me. But bear in mind what Psycholist has said.
somebody cleverer than me said you dont do 4x on a 36 hole rim . it should be 3x

if it's anything like my orange deal where I get unlimited "orange world" internet you'll get all your 3 based services for nothing and then pay through the bumhole for everything you actually want to use..

I have liked girls when they don't like me. Just takes the p!ss after a while. However, at the moment i don't know how she feels, but I don't want anything more than just to hang out with her 'cus she is such a legend it's unbelievable. Really funny, easy to get along with, and the rest
It's not so much trouble, just things never really go my way, and I hope it starts to...I read that as "I like shaved girls" . I was about to agree, but after a re-read realised it's just the onset of senile dislexia

You don't know about my super cool mind reading skills!
I remeber when u firsted posted up, but then i was very drunk anyway, i thought i might have read it, but not really taken it in.
shall we all agree to believe that simon took one up the shitter until he tells us something different?

you can safely kill off the max2008raysat thingy, it won't hurt to prevent the service starting automatically either
i'd be a bit nervous of that FAT9ICE.EXE or whatever it is cos it's in capital letters
otherwise... call that a list of processes? you amateurs don't know the meaning of it-I'm on a 3 year old install of XP and i've never so much as defragged a disk,let alone cleaned it up properly.

Kill off the weak and feeble? Isnt it just a way for all the spasticated people around the well to meet each other and breed more spasticated children. Look at the two fatties in the vid, they were expecting a kid. Marvelous.
they're a rare exception - most of them never meet and those that do either stab each other over imaginary magical swords or manage to eliminate any offspring they may have had by letting them suffocate while they're off working towards earning an imaginary magical sword.

I love this shit - it does the job that evolution did before we invented hospitals.

I'm disgusted at the level of prejudice in this thread.
It's not just the younguns who get all smartarsed. I'm an old driver who's only recently passed his test (5 months ago or so) and i was equally guilty of thinking I was clever cos I passed first time.
What shocked me into a real sense of my inability to properly control a ton and half of metal at 70mph was nearly clouting the central reservation on a motorway with the missus and the baby in the car.
I wasnt driving like a twat at all - I veered right while carefully checking my mirrors to make absolutely sure it was safe to move back into the middle lane after overtaking something.
Anyway - my point is that I'm backing up those who've said you're shit till you've been driving a long time.
bad luck on the stack - as long you didn't damage anything belonging to somebody else adn there's no evidence you were doing anything naughty you'll be reet.

make urself not like them
and here's how
everytime you start to think about her ...
go to the kitchen,
open the fridge door,
pull the old chap out,
place him gently in the opening
slam the door - hard.
repeat until you stop having the thoughts
it works on dogs

maybe its just a stunt to try and blag some charity?
did you actually read it or just stop at the first picture?

that's pretty fecking rough - even for haiti
the sick thing is that if they could get some funding they could probably flog the dirt cookies to dieting western women for 2 quid a pop

I quite like Vista myself, never had any problems with it.
Scopse - I've got discs of Ubuntu 7.10, both 32 and 64 bit.
Have been very tempted to run Ubuntu (had it dual booting on old laptop briefly) but each time I've done it, I seem to get little niggles which would no doubt be fine for a computery guy, but I'm not one of them!
First time the wireless card apparently wouldn't enable. Online said to do something with ndiswrapper or something along those lines, but it couldn't be found.
Second time, no sound.
Are these sorts of things generally easy to sort? Even for a n00b like me?!
I really liked the look and feel of Ubuntu, but feel I might have a lot of issues trying to do stuff like that, and also with compatibility for programs like Reason, Matlab, games etc
running ubuntu on a desktop where you know exactly which cards/devices etc you have plugged in should be relatively easy to sort out, the OS update stuff is nice ne easy and they do a fine job of pretending you're not on linux(ie by making the updates easy).#
However, as you discovered - running it on a laptop where you have no hope at all of finding out anything about the various components is a very differnet kettle of fishies. I got hacked off with it last time i made the effort as I was having to rebuild the kernel every time i plugged something in and even then my wacom and four out of four wireless adaptors never actually worked properly
