    • you should get a laptop
      Sure, all I need is $1,200!

      I'm having a hard enough time trying to keep my desktop up to date. I've been debating wether or not to dump another $40 worth of RAM into it. Currently, all I have is 256. $40 would double that to 512mb.

      Well, I did just get $30 for babysitting last night....hmmm....

      I would notice a difference in two areas, gaming and photography. As for games, I currently play Civ3 (not very power hungry) and Morrowind (a power hog). As for photography, anyone here ever try manipulating 50mb film scans??

          Well, I could just scan them as JPEG's, but then I would have a loss in quality. Instead, I keep 2 50mb TIFF files, one is a raw file (the image completley unedited, not even by the scanner) and one edited file.

          A couple weeks ago I scanned in all 109 exposures that I took on my trip to Europe, and added over 6gb of images to my HD.

          My mother had me scared ****less this morning. I had told her to press the power button on my keyboard when it finished printing her photos. She claims that pressing the keyboard button didn't do anything so she *grimace* pressed the main power button on the CPU.

          I turned it on this morning and it spent close to a half hour scanning for errors, crosslinked files, and crosslinked clusters

          I am amazed this thing is still running!

            • Paddy, did you send the save to me or to ChrisiusMaximus?

              In another words, I haven't received the save yet ...
