  1. I believe they are going the board mounted heatsink route so there should be no need for a chassis group buy. Though I could probably never build one, I'm still interested in seeing the solid state version of the T2 come to fruition
  2. This thread made me reinstall Fallout 2 a few days ago. I love these two games so much
  3. I've become quite the Headamp fanboy [ATTACH=CONFIG]3550[/ATTACH]
  4. Dinny I trust you're watching Hard Knocks? Rex is funny
  5. Just IMO, those cases aren't particularly attractive. I'd much rather have the wood integrated into the chassis side panel (think TTVJ 307A), rather than two big blocks sticking out and acting as the feet as well.
  6. Happy birthday Matt
  7. This thread has run its course...
  8. Steve the Head-Case attachment limit is quite large so in the future you can attach high res images to your posts and not have to worry about your bandwidth.

    The Wire

    I think that's one of the reasons I like The Wire so much. Very plot driven, virtually zero filler episodes and it does play out like one grand Wagner opera. Probably why I can't get into shows like Deadwood no matter how hard I tried.
  10. They might have done that, but it sounds like the EQ was adjusted manually, hence the really weird/unnatural sound (again this is to me knowing what it's really supposed to sound like YMMV). I don't have any of these CDs anymore, sold them almost immediately.
  11. Genesis discography is a mess on CD. There are so many different versions of the pre-remaster CDs. Some sound good (even the best CDs will not touch the very good/excellent vinyl because the CDs are taken from such late generation tapes) and others are dreadful. It's hard to say which it will be unless you listen to it. The crappy CDs were probably taken from pre EQ (where the phono stage RIAA curve should adjust the EQ) LP tapes, so you basically have no bass and tons of high frequencies. UK Charisma and Mad Hatter vinyl would have been cut from either the master tapes or very close generations. Classic Records reissues claim to be from the first generation master tape.

    The Wire

    I agree The Wire is better than The Sopranos. I didn't mind (not sure if that is quite up to I enjoyed it) season two, but it was the weak link in the series.
  13. All the albums are digitally remixed. They have a more "modern" sound to them with the remixing. Personally I think the UK originals (though quite expensive) and Classic Records reissues (also OOP ) sound a lot better.

    Audeze LCD-2

    From the specs of the Gilmore Lite (wall wart power) would it be able to power the LCD-2? A few LCD fanboys say nay.
  15. I always played the most evil bastard I could. My karma was dreadful and the character names were from Paradise Lost. IMO you should always choose "bloody mess" trait, because it's hilarious watching bad guys explode.
  16. I only played each game once, so I have not heard about this. When I played I chose "gifted" so I could have +1 stats in everything, then just shifted around Agi to 8. And then used stims before big fights. If you do find out let us know, I searched through a couple of FAQ/guides and couldn't find the answer. Also agree that Fallout 1 is cooler than Fallout 2. Haj if you can boot into XP you should be fine. There are fan made patches for WinXP that fix nearly every bug that you'll probably never encounter one. I played all of Fallout 1 on my laptop's track pad.
  17. Ouch sorry postie I screwed myself in a similar situation in Fallout 2 my first time (exploring too far on the map, and getting raped by high level random encounters). Always use all 15 save slots (or how ever many there are). So you got to the last floor of the crater/under ground building and can't get out? How many times have you tried, IIRC the radiation poising hits in random intervals (and you don't have enough healing items to keep you from dying from radiation)? I just remembered there are some hard as shit parts in Fallout 1. The early game can be brutal, like the fucking mutant lizard dungeon where you have to rescue the dumbshit that gets trapped there. The end game is so fun though. You are making me want to install it again...
  18. Jeff, evenings are usually best for me (past 8 pm ish). It would be cool if we could invade the H-C chat.
  19. Happy birthday Ian!
  20. Firewire should have been the audio standard for computer use
  21. Even though the Pats aren't looking as great as other years, this is going to be one of the best seasons in football. Can't wait for the draft.
  22. Will people be buying multiple back ups of the touch screen? If it were to fail in the distant future I could see it being a pain to replace.
  23. The FirstWatt M2 looks really interesting
