...unfortunately. Facebook groups seem to be the in thing for convenience with users. That said phpBB and vBulletin are the way to go.

Glad I didnt quote him then ;) Using a stop watch though does seem to fall within his abilities ... barely.

It wont really, GRC.com did a test a good few years ago and showed not much difference and newer chips have AES-256 instructions built in so its a no brainer.

Hadnt noticed that before!

I bought my first TomTom (and last) a year ago, was instantly out of date map wise missing some fairly major chunks of motorway network that had been completed locally 6 months before purchase. No new maps were sent only tiny small updates. Khants the lot of them.

I'm not elitest but I really expected more from /. and their videos. I got to about 3 minutes in before actually seeing anything and the stuttering and stammering of the guy with the modded PS1 and PS2 crippled any remaining interest. For a tech site the production of the video was really low too. Up your game folks!

Yea and nVidia have been bringing out new video cards for over a decade ... still see the geekdom getting boners for the latest and greatest.

I remember the Fishtro from Future Crew exactly 20 years ago and it was 220k! (http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=1283) this is breathtaking stuff. Magic!

Reminds me of Geo Bushwhacker II and his "Yo Blair!"

Act like a kid. Register a new email address at live.com or gmail, timlikestheyankees@ or something that makes you appear young. Send an email to the company that owns the domain, make it very laid back, again act like a kid. Say you want the name for a new band / a project / your sister's birthday and how much is it. Make the email short and sweet, a lack of capitalisation and spelling will actually help here. If its a domain theyve not had any interest in you should get an offer at a low price. If you sent an email all business like from a proper email account they'd try and ride you out for a higher amount. In their eyes some money is better than no money. Worked for me in the past. R
