    George R.R. Martin novel news

    Approx. 1100 pages, or comparable to AGoT. Edit: (woops... didn't see the replies already on this page.)

    Just saw RotJ Spec. Ed. on DVD for the first time...

    I agree... this was definately one of the lamest changes. I was rather upset when they were released on DVD and Lucas promised the true originals will never be released on DVD.

    Looking for a Graphics Card

    Few things: Be careful on pricewatch, there are some shady places out there. If you want a definately reliable site with good prices and reputation use: www.newegg.com I would not recommend a GF 5700, that's a mid to lower end card last generation card, and can actually be SLOWER than your GF...

    The 4400

    I've kind of fallen out with this series. There are some good actors and the main plot is interesting, but it moves glacially slow. I'm bored of the 4400 wacky power of the week that always "shockingly" turns out to not be what it seems. I'll watch it if I catch it, but it's getting painful.

    Batman Begins, no contest.

    Forays into the world of wireless network connections

    Check the website of the W-Lan card maker to see if they have newer drivers. The ones on the CD it came with are likely old. Many wireless card drivers had issues with XP SP2 and released updated drivers.

    Rate Batman Begins

    re: your spoiler Agreed, I had the same question :confused: But it IS a comic book movie ;) so I was willing to let that one go, especially since the rest was so well done. Definately, this movie had a very high quality feel to it. Much of that I think had to do with the casting. One other...

    Attn Computer Savvy People, Please Help!

    Sounds like a memory leak in a program or a bad driver perhaps. It could also be the drive like Psionicist said also. First thing would be to check for a virus or spyware. What programs are running on bootup? (Can be checked with msconfig started from the command prompt, check the 'startup'...

    Whoa slow down... that power supply is a good brand and plenty sufficient for the components he has listed. Now that isn't to say it couldn't be faulty. Here's a nice web page where you can calculate the peak total wattages of your PC's components. He's well within range...

    Black Company or Song of Ice and Fire, what should I read next?

    SoIaF are the best novels I've ever read, period. Since you plan on reading both series, I don't think it matters which you read first.

    Rate Batman Begins

    Just saw it this afternoon. I gave it a 9, near perfection. Hands down the best Batman movie ever, and perhaps even the best superhero movie ever! I can see what some people are saying about the fight scenes, but I believe it was done with a purpose. It's explained in the movie even as Ducard...

    Your favorite live-action Batman movie:

    Just saw Batman: Begins... no contest here, it's the clear winner.

    Attn Computer Savvy People, Please Help!

    Psionicist is right, it's probably heat. The first thing I would do is get a can of compressed air, open your case up and clean it out. Make sure all the fans are still spinning when the PC is on also.

    Age of Worms - Campaign tone?

    Bump for the thread, since I haven't seen Deadwood either, but would like to know more. You did a great job on the setting Erik, really like it, I'm dissappointed you aren't writing the rest, although I assume you'll have a say in how it plays out?

    A pseudo-scientific explanation of magic

    Cool thread :cool: I love this area of science, it's funny though how much it actually can start to read like magic or religion once it get's this far into the philosophical depths. Anyway I don't have too much to add, other than I like the ideas of tying String Theory and Ley lines, Feng...

    Customer Service Snafu

    Just wanted to chime in my agreement Twofalls, Dr Niles, and Yancey. The reply was definately poor and unprofessional. It sounds like your wife deserves a pat on the back. Like it's been said, a true business owner should realize when a loyal customer tells you their observations of something...
