Comment Asus RT N16 (Score 1) 398

I'll cast my vote for the Asus RT N16 router with the tomato USB firmware. I recently upgraded to this. Before I had a Netgear 3500 with DD-WRT and I can personally tell you the QOS of Tomato is far superior in my experience and replacing the firmware on the router was a breeze. You have to know a little about networking before you jump in and change things though and Tomato information is kinda scarce but a few hours of googling will give some good information. So far this has been the best router I have ever owned and I am loving Tomato. The only downside is it's not 5Ghz though only 2.4.

You can download the roms from any source as long as you own the games so I suggest you buy the arcade PCB's of any rom that you download. http://www.jammaboards.com/store/arcade-game-boards-and-pcbs/cat_21.html http://www.quarterarcade.com/Browse.aspx?c=All.Parts.Boards Those are only a couple of the places that you can buy the arcade boards.

Well reviews are essentially opinions so you need to take them with a grain of salt. Still there a few truths I never quite got over that I feel cover the entire industry such as. 1.Games on optical platforms (CD or DVD) will be cheaper because of manufacturing cost. 2.Optical platforms will be better because they can hold more information. 3.Load times will be gone in a few years. Having said this am I disappointed with the industry as a whole? No I have played some incredible games some of which got lousy reviews you just have to think about what pleases you I am not saying stop reading reviews but look at more than one and think about what you like.

Ever installed Adobe Reader, Quicktime,Or Real Player? It seems to be a trend with even legitimate software I mean how else is a company gonna get their toolbar, registry cleaner, search engine, etc onto your computer? I must admit I am not that shocked to see CNET doing this and I believe it's only a matter of time before it spreads everywhere.

Comment The Truth (Score 1) 481

I doubt that we will never know the exact truth about what happened at Roswell considering the amount of time passed and the disinformation that has been injected into the claim. So the truth has now come down to what you believe taking on almost religious overtones. As an armature ufologist I have to approach this from a pure scientific standpoint and leave all objectivity aside. Sad to say just as Webmistress said this is a report taken from an individual and proves nothing.

Comment All Of Them (Score 1) 1200

Almost all the movies I have seen that involve a computer get it wrong but i have narrowed it down to three key points. 1. Very few people use the keyboard as much as it is represented in the movies or TV 2. It does not take less than 30 seconds to back up huge amounts of data. 3. A computer crash or failure does not constitute a huge explosion.
