Pretty good evidence. I wonder what Microsoft has to say about it?

For a second there I thought it was reasonable, like going from an Athlon to an Athlon II. Then I re-read it, and had the same reaction.
I'm going to post some self-made content:
I burn my (legally-obtained) music to CDs as MP3s, for use in my car. It works great - I can fit about 7-20 disks onto one CD (the entire discography of Metallica takes up only two disks instead of 13), which is great when you have a long commute.
I recently made one of Iron Maiden - I managed to fit the first twenty years worth of music, a dozen studio albums, onto one disc. However, when I put it in in the morning, it showed up as an error. Not that unusual - the system is rather picky, and I assumed I just forgot to fixate the disk or something.
Well, my car broke down that afternoon (water pump went bad, and the engine started behaving like an overclocked Pentium IV with no heat sink). So, I had to borrow my sister's car to get to school today. I grabbed some of my CDs, since we have no overlap in music that we like. I figured that maybe her system was less picky, and stuck Iron Maiden in.
Still an error. I figured "it was worth a shot" and slapped in a Final Fantasy soundtrack.
So, I finally get home, and after working for a few hours removing parts to my engine, I get on my laptop. I decide to see just what was wrong with that damn CD.
Huh. It's blank.
Oh crap.
I had meticulously set up the disk image, making sure all the songs where there, in the right order, but never actually clicked "burn to disk". Thus, making myself some minor content.
@Wingless: This also explains why I'm not signed into Steam. I'm extremely busy, and not in a mood to chat with anybody anyways. So don't bug me about it - I'll be back on when I actually want to talk to somebody.

I get about 3MB/sec download on Steam, and about 2 MB/sec when seeding my Linux distros.

he went from a 2.8 ghz of the same processor to that one when he could have just overclocked the other one by 400 mhz

That's a just regular computer illiterate.
Dicking around looking at PCI and AGP graphics cards on Newegg and come across this GeForce 2 MX400. It has the highest rating of all the PCI cards so I read the reviews.

[quote= moronic newegg reviewer]Pros: Has the capabiliy of displaying today's games in good enough quality that it does not make my eyes bleed. Halo is a good example, although this card doesnt compare to my GeForce 5500 in my other comp, which btw is XBox quality, this card renders the 3D surroundings and textured to a high enough level that the game environment looks like an environment, not a bunch of white blocks w/ black outlines that the Intel integrated graphics this replaced put out. Having S-Video out and Composite out definitely help for a good emprovised home theater (6 channel sound card, 2 stereos, TV as center, old car sub on a 500w amp connected w/ 3 different adapters (lol) to comp) Also, when getting drivers do not use the disk, goto nvidia.com and download the GeForce drivers, the Forceware software, and the nTune software. This combo allows for advanced multiple display/TV config, ocerclocking, and much more neat stuff.
NVIDIA PWNS!!!
AND SO DOES NEWEGG FOR GETTING IT HERE IN 2 DAYS!
Cons: Kinda outdated, but works great in my old Dell Dimension L866r
Other Thoughts: Comp Specs:
Pentium 3 866mhz
Intel mobo w/ 4 PCI slots and no AGP (hence why i got this card)
192MB RAM (don't laugh I'm working on getting more)
Surround sound card on the way
Overall works great for a secondary comp so I can pwn friends in duels
If you are looking for a cheap yet effective gfx card for a comp w/o an AGP slot get this and avoid A-T-I because their drivers R teh suxx0rz[/quote]
"XBox quality"
:eng99:
"nVidia pwns"

I missed it at first too. But the joke is that in the reviews, some guy upgraded from a 240, which is only slower with clockspeed. Then he bought a whole new processor to get a 400 Mhz boost.
