He was on Conan on Tuesday. wtf.

yeah.. that's just dogshit

She sounds a lot like Amy Lee but there's a little more roughness in her voice. Plus she seems to drown out the band more than Amy. And listening to "Evanescence II" has made me realize that it was decidedly... stale. I think the time for Evanescence has passed but who knows.. people will listen to anything that record companies promote hard.

In addition to fan/heatsink problems, there might be something wrong with ACPI or thermal management. I have never seen a computer that doesn't automatically shut down at 90 C. Those temps are quite extreme.

The Vietnam special wasn't exactly a let down but it won't be exactly difficult to top either. Now the north pole special.. THAT will be difficult to top. -Sir Ranulph falkon

Yeah, I thought they were just trying too hard to be like the original and not succeeding.

Top Gear Australia is absolutely terrible.

I wonder if they'll start introducing every guest as the Stig.

I would try somewhere else. Not too many people interested in NOS dacs here.

and yet, you don't blank out "fucking".

These guys had better be good cuz this is no easy task.

Part of it has to do with the expectation. I was perfectly happy with how it ended but for most people, with that much suspense for so many years, it's just impossible to have a satisfactory ending. Take Lost for example. What's the proper way to end that without disappointing anyone?

Rythmik Audio servo subwoofer 12" F12 This is also very highly regarded. Bigger and heavier but direct servo. Specs and frequency response claims 14Hz.

I seriously doubt you could do it for $100 less with a C2D unless you go used. Probably closer to $30-50 if you use a decent motherboard. I'd recommend a P45 chipset like this: Newegg.com - GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3R LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard - Intel Motherboards I'd recommend a PSU in the 500-600W range. The Corsair VX line is excellent. For something cheaper, Antec is alright but quite a bit louder. Don't buy a combo PSU+case. The PSUs tend to have a high failure rate.

good thread rename

I'm running 64-bit Autocad LT 2009 no problem.

They're probably going to make it a more commercial venture. Features via subscription etc.. The pages will probably end up facebook-ish. Probably time to quit like I did facebook.

The release's been pushed back about 4 times now. Sept. 08, Dec. 08, April/May, June/July, and now August 4th. This one seems more official since she's actually finished the album earlier this month but it was still from her blog. Not sure if this was confirmed by RCA.

I think he's talking about edition upgrades, not OS upgrades.

Does it force you to put in the XP/Vista CD to verify?

Same. Been looking forward to this for a few years now. From what little's been revealed, it should be quite good. Looking forward to that "little bird" track. I have a feeling it might be a tad bit too mainstream, though.

What little I could dig up:

The pricing on Windows 7 upgrade is attractive but I'd rather keep Vista than do an MS upgrade. I'll probably just spend the extra and get the full version.

There happens to be an D/AC 1100 up for sale: FS: Parasound D/AC 1100 DAC - Head-Fi: Covering Headphones, Earphones and Portable Audio
