Aaaand it's another update on my life
I can't think of anything that would really be suitable for a situation like this so I'll follow Colrom and Darque's lead and just say:
-
NHL
Seems like Buffalo has started to falter somewhat. They've been beaten several times recently and just lost in a shootout to Boston.
-
CRT or LCD Monitor
What? When was that out? ...Or it is just a typo? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Typo.

Movies You Have Seen Lately
Ow, that hurts man, that really hurts. Chronicles may not be as good as Pitch Black, but it really doesn't deserve to be compared with an Uwe Boll film. That's just low... <_<

Movies You Have Seen Lately
Cheers! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No problem! You've gotten me in the mood to rewatch all three (Hurray for three disc special edition!) but I think I'll have to wait until the sun comes up and some people in this house wake up. For some reason they don't like having a booming subwoofer in the basement at 3am when they are trying to sleep. " Chronicles is to Pitch Black what Aliens is to Alien.

Movies You Have Seen Lately
Vin does play the same character in both movies. Chronicles of Riddick is a sequel to Pitch Black. If you can find it there was also a shorter (30 minute) animated movie called Dark Fury that was set between the two movies.

Need a Hard Drive
They got a little pissy about it? Gee, I don't see why. " Right now I'm feeling a bit of a squeeze with my 160GB drive. My next computer is definitely going to have a "tarna" level storage space.

Need a Hard Drive
Don't know anything about Hitachi's drive record so I haven't bought any. The only Tb drives I've seen ( I really haven't been looking too hard though ) have been smaller drives RAIDed together to get a Tb. I have had a good run with Western Digital and Seagate has a good rep as well as a 5 year warranty. I figure if they have that much confidence in their drives, they're not planning on replacing too many. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hitachi announced their new 1TB drives at CES last week. Link

Need a Hard Drive
Since I can't edit my last post I'll have to double post here... Tarna, what do you think about the new 1TB drives from Hitachi? Any plans to purchase one (or several) of those? "

Pictures of your games...
I remember playing that mission as the allies. I can't count how many times that I died attempting to get into that courtyard. Always seemed to have 4 people standing right beside each entrance ready to full burst anyone who walked through. I ended up using an RPG to blow a hole in the wall near the corner and going through there. <_<

Need a Hard Drive
He has your entire post history saved to disk. And damn that's a lot of HD space. You've got almost three terabytes of storage there. I'd kill for that much space...
-
Need a Hard Drive
What exactly do you do with all your hard drive space? Don't you also have several 500GB drives as well?

NHL
Edmonton was in it almost all the way. If it wasn't for that third Calgary goal I don't think it would have been much of a stretch to see Edmonton tie it up to send it to overtime. And Toronto was at home getting pwned! That's where they were!

Favorite Ongoing TV Shows
From off the top of my head: House Boston Legal CSI: Vegas (I hate NY and Miami.) Colbert Report and Daily Show when I bother to stay up until the 1:30am repeats. Battlestar Galactica (When I remember it's on.) Mythbusters Corner Gas The Class Stargate SG-1 (except post RDA episodes. IMO it went downhill without him.)
-
NHL
At least I can take solace in the fact that Vancouver pounded Toronto tonight almost as badly as Ottawa beat up on Montreal. ) And looks like Tampa manage to win 3-2 over Buffalo. "
-

That is kinda odd. Looks like something screwed up cause I'm pretty sure you shouldn't be able to get up on top of those. Never seen that happen before. )
-
NHL
Montreal is down 6-2 against Ottawa right now. EDIT: Make that 7-2 going into the third. They just can't seem to get a break today. EDIT2: And a minute later it's 8-2. :'(

Wii Outsold PS3 In Japan By More Than 2:1
You aren't the only one. I remember reading that somewhere a few months ago, but I can't recall where it was now.

Need a Hard Drive
Im just curious, is this a home built system? Ive never seen a PC that didnt have a fan for the processor. IIRC, my rig has one for the power supply, one for the processor and one mounted directly on the video card (GE Force 6800) which I hadnt seen before until I bought it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Lol ok. The only fan I don't have is a case fan. I do have one for the CPU and my vid card has a heatsink. Plus the PS fan. Anyway I bought a Western Digital 233Gb 7200rpm 8Mb Cache for 89$CAN which I think is a pretty good deal. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> $10 cheaper than what I've usually been able to find them for.

Favorite Toys
I had these two, or rather I had Commander Keen and the Shareware version of Cosmo's Cosmic Adventures. Not that it mattered as I couldn't beat the boss at the end of level ten. It dropped you in a big pit with the slippery walls so your suction cup hands didn't work as well and the boss was this giant ball with spikes on the bottom that tried to crush you. I could usually get maybe only one or two hits in on him before I got killed. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You weren't supposed to defeat that boss. Him killing you was their way of saying "if you don't like it give us money." I remember decoding the funky hidden alphabet in Commander Keen. so I could see what all those random messages said. Trust me, it wasn't worth the time. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Those jerks! How could they do that to me!? I was only 4 at the time. I didn't have any money to give them. :'( I never bothered to translate the secret messages myself. I looked them up on the internet years later though.

Need a Hard Drive
If you are spending $100 on a hard drive and only getting 100GB then you need to do some searching. A quick search shows 80GB drives as low as $60* and 250GB at around $100*. *All approximate prices listed in Cdn dollars.

And I bet that when you go make change for those few dollars that you'll get a few US coins as well.
