Grand Enigma

Wish I had some newfangled, non-backwoods hick ISP. My option is my local cable provider or Hughes net.... I had to argue to get 10MB... they didn't want to hook me up if I was going to be using it for gaming or downloading movies

This is what I get for living in the boonies of NJ.

Am I cool now?

So, I haven't been around for some time... what the heck is a T2 and why does everyone need so bumpers for it?

I have now bought 3 septic inspections and 2 home inspections all to get nothing... hurray for looking for homes in NJ where everything in my price range is a short-sale, foreclosure or might as well be condemned.

Thanks all! Wish I could say that I didn't work too hard today... just got home from working all day in Harlem and sitting in traffic forever. I plan on having a good birthdays nights sleep.

The G15 is decent. The S1 is much better but does not come in a 46" size... think the smallest is 52" or so.

Try to find a Samsung LN-46a950 or Sony 46-XBR8... will take some shopping around at local stores to find either still but both are fantastic sets that will compete with anything out now... they are just not as slim as the 8500 or the new xbr10. Both should be able to be had for $1,500-$2k. The Sony being a tri-luminous LED backlit. Both are fanstastic. The LED edge lit garbage like the Samsung 6000,7000, and 8000 have the same flaws as CCFL with flash lighting and washout with the added bonus of horrible audio if you plan to use the built in speakers.

...and how good of a space heater they will make.

I am awaiting a Yobokies Modded Seiko SNKH63J1... left HK yesterday on its trip to the US. Was looking for a beater automatic and figured this would do nicely.

Dusty, Lin you read the Head-Fi you would fin that I love it when you call me Big Pappa!

Any ideas on if it supports Flash?

I think I would still choose to go with the Lenovo U1.

Still haven't made it back up to the pre-hype level yet. 90 days for the 3G is ouch but I understand why they did it as they didn't want anything to leek from the FCC filings.... but they are going to lose a lot of the impulse buys this way.

$499 is for the 16GB giant iPod.

Cool... so now you can pay monthly fees for mobile broadband, your cell phone, and this? I want to see this do something my netbook cant.

Giant iPod = Fail in my book. There is nothing new or revolutionary about this. No 3G... really? Unless they allow people to wirelessly tether this to an iPhone or other device this thing is all but worthless for most people... especially any business person that travels or anyone that is on the road for the matter.

For those who noticed and/or care I slightly edited the Title to make it a little more work friendly. Nothing like one of my FF tabs reading F-ing snow.

Nothing like walking out to your car in 4" of slush while it was raining... this is going to be a blast later this evening as we are hovering just above freezing right now...

Ice Ice Baby clearly should have been the track of choice.

This Is How a Record Made of Ice Sounds - Ice records - Gizmodo Pretty cool.

Amazon.com: Planet Earth - The Complete BBC Series [blu-ray]: David Attenborough: Movies & TV Great series and price.

Pretty certain that is one of the stock wallpapers that comes with Windows Vista

...those are some sick deer.

My wife actually has one of those for when we go backpacking so she doesn't have to use the alternative method... not fun with a pack on so I hear.
