'morning Folks, Cloudy here today, with a chance of freezing rain. Warm here compared the the mountain west--geez, minus teens. That air mass won't be quite as cold when it gets here next week, but it's a sure sign that winter isn't over yet. If you've been following Eric's (ngc1514) build your own computer project, check back soon. Looks like it should be ready to go this morning. My credit card cycles on the 17th, and then I'll decide what to do about my new machine.... Youz guys have a nice day, JM |

If you can swing it, John, the Core 2 Duo is the way to go! I'm sitting here comparing thousands of files that have been copied over to the new machine, installing software and downloading some stuff and the CPU utilization in the main core has yet to hit 35% and the second core 20%! It's amazing! Of course, it must be noted that the machines I have to compare the performance to are pretty puny and someone coming from a newer system might not be quite as impressed. I'm happy! |
