I agree with mojo. I have both and the 510 usually seems fast enough for my general use. I was surprised at that. I have it with pico and if I had a SSD and 7 it would be even better.

I use the Asus EEE because I need one with a long battery life for use in the campo. I think the netbook linked to would be preferable future netbook for me. I really like my 510 desktop.

I don't know if this is entirely relevant , but I think it would be interesting to you to read about cics' clpayer.

I am going to resurrect this older thread rather than start a new one about the same subject. I know Mike C. uses a 240e in his HTPC, or he did a short while ago. But where are these cpus being sold? There are lots of articles at various websites, but none for sale that I can see. And what about "mo...

Here is a link to a short article that will give a simple explantion of Sandy Bridge. I get confused over what is included and when it will be released. Sandy Bridge sounds like an ideal solution for some of us. http://www.fudzilla.com/content/view/17669/1/ Am I correct in that Intel's 65w has been ...

Hi everyone, Could someone please recommend a case and CPU heatsink that will work well with my MSI 785GM-E65 motherboard with respect to space to fit everything in and thermal design? I want to eventually add a graphics card so the case would have to support full size pci cards. Budget is moderate...

I have some kind of single core in an older machine. It is very slow when updating windows or just doing anything. Personally I will never have a single core anything again. Even a NAS, or anything, needs to have updates and the single core I had was frustratingly slow.

ok, so I completely missed this thread and had started another one in notebooks forum. My bad.

It doesn't support Flash, It can't make phone calls. It has no USB ports. It has no memory card slots, or camera. While AT&T is saying it will have unlimited data download for US$29.95 per month, there are arguments being made that AT&T does not have network to support it. $630 for the AT&T version ...

I don't really know enough about these things to know if Noscript is actually needed. I do know that often I will sit here wondering why something isn't loading and then realize I must right click and allow something. It just seems almost pointless, because if someone wants to write something to my ...

Since the S1 with Turbo would add about fifty bucks to a card, I think the card the OP linked to seems like a good value.

this is a good article on the 240 cards. I like the card as I am not sold on ATI cards for Linux.

Today, on my machine, the FF 3.6 is noticeably faster than Chrome 4.0.266. The Chrome has a lag that just isn't there on the FF. I had been using Chrome since they started adding extensions December 17, I think it was. The list of extensions for Chrome is building fast. Being a Google thing, I guess...

I can have a motor run on natural gas to create electricity as required. What are you guys trying to achieve? Surely a large scale power plant has much higher efficiency than your generator! That kind of move should just increase your carbon footprint. yes, but come the revolution and we will stay ...

Take it from me, when compared to wood smoke, propane is not nearly the immediate health risk to people with respitory problems. While Neil is correct, Greg is also correct that wood burning puts a lot of toxins in the air. I've driven through small and poor towns where everyone clearly heated with...

I wonder how the 235e compares to an undervolted 250 for power usage and coolage. I never UV'd until recently, but it seems to work well. On a related note, while the computer seems fast enough I am starting to not like how it is slower when working with numbers. While I use the machine for HTPC I a...

Hi Greg, The new vacuum tube solar heat collectors are head and shoulders better than the older flat plate collectors. http://www.thebighouse.eu/images/2008/solar%20tubes%20big.jpg These have a glass tube with a vacuum around a heatpipe. The top of the heatpipe plugs into the header -- they are ver...

Hello Greg, Around here we have Stagnant Air Alerts. The smoke can get so thick in the winter that it affects people's health. Well, that is a separate issue -- and I would posit that fumes from propane would also hang around. Even though you might not see it, it still could have bad effects. Like ...

the Clarkdale processors are now at Newegg. but the 45w AMD processors are not, but apparently are at Tiger Direct. I don't understand that.

Hi Greg, Wood is much better than propane for one very important reason: wood is short-cycled carbon. The trees grew and they pull the carbon from the air, so when you burn the wood, the same carbon goes back into the air. Propane is old carbon, that has been sequestered in the ground for millions ...
