Re: Starcraft 2 Rig

Yea, it's too old to support any newer components. PSU is only 450W I think. DVD player is re-usable, and I already have a couple of 350GB SATA drives that I can use. Other than that, I'd be starting from scratch. There aren't really any other games I'm that interested in playing on it. Since I got ...

Starcraft 2 Rig

Say I want to build a rig that will play SC2 well -- with all the bells and whistles -- while spending the least amount of money possible... How much cash would I be looking at dropping? I haven't built a machine in years (haven't felt a need to), but here are the system requirements according to Bl...

Just wait until you solicit advice from people you know IRL. You'll wish you never had in many cases.

Re: Question for the fathers here

The best thing she can do is cardio, and in the third trimester doing a lot of stretches. My wife continued to jog through the whole pregnancy until she couldn't anymore. I think staying in shape is a HUGE part of the reason she has had such a great pregnancy. Does the hospital there offer a class o...

Re: boston.com - pics of Tennessee floods

Yea, just rumors and people talking at this point. I haven't really had much time (or cared enough) to look into it. I don't think the estimates are very accurate yet, since there are still quite a few places underwater. But the '93 flood was obviously worse... how quickly we forget about these thin...

Re: boston.com - pics of Tennessee floods

the people in tennessee won't take long to clean it up, unlike the new orleans people. It's probably going to take a while, but we'll handle it. They're saying it may be the biggest non-hurricane related natural disaster in the country's history, but that seems a little exaggerated to me. Don't get...

Monday (May 3 - same as him), around lunchtime. I work about 8 blocks from there, so I took a break and walked downtown.

So the overwhelming response from the forum seems to be the A5.

Is that gonna affect your decision in any way?

I tried imageshack before. I guess it didn't give me direct links because I uploaded both of them at the same time, so it just gave me a gallery.

Re: boston.com - pics of Tennessee floods

It's all pretty crazy. I took these with my phone on Monday around noon. That's 2nd Ave -- the water continued to rise after that before it peaked.


edit: n/m, I don't have time to scour the internet for an image host that works with the forum here.

Re: Buying a new vehicle???

You can't blame people for being cynical. The last time you posted a thread about sedans, you went to test drive some, then came home with a Hummer. It seems like you're at risk for doing that again, because you haven't really decided, functionally, what you want out of your next vehicle. Start off ...

Re: Concert seating questions...

The only other concert I've ever been to with an assigned seat was the first time I saw Roger Waters. That was one of the best concert experiences I've ever had. It's a bit of a pain in the ass, but it's also nice to know you'll be able to get back to where you were, in case you need to get up for a...

Re: Concert seating questions...

Thanks bit, guess I should have just gone to ticketmaster first. :)

We decided to go to the Atlanta concert. That's going to be a whole lot easier with a 5-month old baby. We can just bring a babysitter along with us and enjoy the show.

I've never been to that arena either though.

Concert seating questions...

I'm trying to get tickets to Roger Water's The Wall tour later this year, and all the shows are in out of state venues that I've never been to before. I want to get good seats, but I can't figure out which ones to get. One show is at the Verizon Center in D.C., which is a possibility for us, but the...
