damn!
that would be sweet!

I was looking this one MB that can handle 16GB of DDR (8 slots total) but that one costs $890!


3GB should be enough to load XP and Photochop :rick:

This one time, I was playing a DiVX movie... it was 2cd's, and I played the first disc and then had to switch to the other disc. But when I started playing it, it was the same as the first one. I figured I burned it wrong. So I tried the 2nd cd on another computer, works fine.

Here it turns out, XP had cached the whole cd into ram and was playing back from ram instead of reading the other cd. I had to reboot just to finish watching the movie h:

Actually there are some pretty smart nerds with fabricating skills that made their entire house automated. Almost every single outlet has a remote control from one computer... security system, electornic locks, automatic windows/blinds, electronic control bath/shower, etc... tons of stuff.

It's all controlled by a Slackware linux 8.0 machine with a PIII 733MHZ cpu and 512mb ram. :thumbup:
