Well, do you need onboard graphics? If not, you should probably still get the Z68 because it saves power by using onboard graphics for non-gaming stuff

[QUOTE=Lanopo;32387691]How do I make a continuous document in word? Like a document with no page breaks?[/QUOTE]
I'm not sure if that is possible, there is however a "Web layout" view that does what you want. That's just a view option, and not a per-document setting.

If you use 2007+ then you should just have to double click the spaces between documents to make it like one continous document.
I'm applying to work at my school's tech department; i'm writing a paper to tell them what I'm capable of. Would this part of the paper make sense or is it incorrect?
"I have worked with a few different BIOS’, including ones designed for HP, Dell, Asus, Biostar, Asrock, Gateway, ECS, and MSI products. I know how to navigate the menus and enable/disable peripherals. I also know about boot order and which SATA ports should be used for each device, and how to physically and through the BIOS configure IDE drives for boot order as well."

Should I say something like "I have worked with a few different BIOS layouts..."

I'd definitely say "BIOS layouts" as I doubt we have a correct plural for "BIOS" other than BIOS'.
I'd also refrain from listing insipid tasks you do in a BIOS and just say you know everything there is to know about practically every BIOS, in a more formal way obviously.
What are those speakers with yellow cirlcle's called? Im so clear :v:

So, a cover letter? It sounds like you're going a bit too in depth. It doesn't really matter what BIOS-es you've used, say something like:

I have worked with the BIOS' of many major motherboard manufacturers and know how to navigate the menus, enable/disable peripherals, and how to physically, as well as through the BIOS, configure IDE drives' boot order.
[/quote] (I left out the SATA part, I couldn't quite understand what you were trying to say)
Maybe I made it a little too short, but that would look good on your resume under skills. You for sure don't want your cover letter more than a page, and you probably should just lay out your experience and skills lightly and let your resume list all the individual skills.
I have the opportunity to get an HTC Wildfire S on contract for the lovely price of 18 euros a month. Problem is, I have no clue if the internet data limit I get is anything near reasonable or just how much I can do with it.
How much use can I expect to get out of 500 mb per month and is it a reasonable amount?

500 megabytes? That's plenty, honestly. If megabits, I don't think so. I think I only used ~200MB max in a month since I got my phone, but I'd check what your overage charges would be, just in case.
I use like 4gb per month, i'm proud.

imo, it doesn't matter what data limit you get on the wildfire because the screen is way too small to actually browse the internet decently
I'd either go for a phone with a bigger screen or a phone with no data allowance

I agree actually, don't get yourself stuck in a contract without getting at least getting a nice phone from it. Just save up until you can get a better phone, I had a Droid (Milestone) for a year and it's really not a quick phone, browsing the web was a chore. Now that I have a Droid X browsing the web is much better, and enjoyable.

Live TV, Internet Radio, Youtube, Tethering my laptop, and general stuff like that. But lots of it.

Still looking around.
Opinions on the Xperia Arc?

I can get it on a plan with 200 minutes/texts and a 400 mb data limit for 25 euros a month.
That data limit sounds puny but I don't consider myself an intensive user (totally not talking about brt5470, no sirree) so that's not too bad.
Even if I do end up exceeding it, I can get an extra pack that will charge me 2,50 euros per 100 mb that exceeds my bundle, which also sounds pretty damn good.
I've checked Techradar's review and really, their listed cons:
[quote]
Small, fiddly power and volume buttons[/quote]
Okay, I have sausage fingers but I can adapt.
[quote]Timescape widget is rather ugly[/quote]
Nothing a delete button can't fix.
[quote]Text entry system is a bit last generation[/quote]
Holy shit, a standard keyboard (no swipe or whatever), how will I bear this?
[quote]Only five home screens[/quote]
Only 5? How dare Sony release it with only 5 (or maybe this is something I'm not grasping?)!

Small data limit isn't that bad, you'd mostly be using it off wifi I would think, you know bed browsing and all
I have these two cards

and

In CCC it shows that crossfire is enabled but no other program is saying it is. What's gong on here?

I'm also getting tons of flickering in every game I play.
[editline]20th September 2011[/editline]
Also, the second card I linked is loud as fuck. I might go back tomorrow and see if Microcenter has a different model.
I put a fucking gun to the head of HSPA and pull the fucking trigger.
That's how I treat my data plan.
What program do you use for checking the health of a harddrive? I suspect my laptop's internal harddrive may be the cause of a recent BSOD and maybe some rare freezes.
So I've been thinking of buying a neato xv-15, a automated vacuum robot for my mother birthday later this year.

Any thoughts or better suggestion?
