how fast is ya cpu?
amd athalon thunderbird 1400 (not xp) 1 min 41 seconds. But I get 44 fps in unreal 2004 using a good video card, and benchmarks are the only thing I can find which makes my computer seem sluggish. It doesn't hurt that I am using a Gforce FX 5700 with 256 megs, and I have 768 megs of DDR ECC ram. -

Hybrids over-rated?
The best piston engine available can approach 30% efficiency. Your car, just driving around usually averages less than 12% efficiency. Power plants usually produce over 65% efficiency when converting fuel to power, some can approach 80%. In addition to that, they have air scrubbers to make the... -

Hybrids over-rated?
One problem with the biodesil solution for everyone. It uses about 750 acres of plant mass for a year of driving. So it is good for the novelty, and for occasional people, however it is not the solution for the millions. -

Hybrids over-rated?
[ QUOTE ] Darell said: Yeti - Cool! How do you like your Viento? I read that review when it first appeared, and thought it would be a pretty slick little bike. I think you need a little nuclear reactor onboard. What sort of kWh capacity do you have for your 100 pounds of pbA batteries... -

Hybrids over-rated?
I am actually thinking of converting my motor bike to a hybrid. There isn't enough room inside to fit the power plant. but I think that I can just bolt a 2HP generator to the bike so that I can charge it when the batteries start running low. A 1500 watt generator uses 1 pint of gas every 10... -

wireless woes
my guess is that is your usb. Most computers put usb devices to sleep if they arn't in use. Beyond that I would check to verify that your telephone base station, and handsets are not between the transmitter two base stations. If all else fails, disconnect the antenna on the base station, and... -

Good and Cheap Router?
In general I like the netopia 910 router as a home/office router. They are robust, have all of the router features, including the ability to act as a vpn server or client, serve dhcp, and do multinat. The netgear routers seem decent, but people usually need to call tech support in order to get... -

Good and Cheap Router?
When your linksys fails, and you open it up, there will be a blown resistor of unknown value. I would recommend replacing this resistor with a 5 watt 1/2 ohm resistor. This usually fixes the problem, the original is a 1/4 watt resistor, and is not up to the task. -

PowerMac G5
My pc is faster than my mac, but I am much faster on my mac than on my pc. It all depends on the software. I think that I am unusual here, instead of buying hardware and attempting to use it with various different software packages, I buy the software that I am going to be most effective working... -

This website stuff is hard...
you don't need a domain name. You could use a portion of their domain name But, if you want to go elsewhere later, for instance your hosting provider goes out of business, people have to learn your new address. an example that everyone here knows is with the led museum. -

Do you tell your friends and co-workers about CPF?
Sure, and some of them say they regularly read this. I have also sold my inretech UV modified m!nimag flashlight at a bar. They go over really well in the club scene. As does anything abnormal, and glowing odd colors (thinking about creative uses for the glow powder). I also sold my m!nimag with... -

Rube Goldberg to the Max!
They probably had a VERY stable floor to keep the hair triggers in tact... There is a split in the board, but there is also a slight offset, if you look closely the window doesn't go all the way down, but instead bridges the gap in the board... Try watching the quicktime version for the...
