I've yet to have a single dead Maxtor, but I've had a few dead WDs. In any case, YES, get a UPS! I've lost more than a few power supplies and graphics cards to power outages before I went out and bought one. You can get a decent UPS for sub-$100. It's totally worth your while. Plus, you can have the...

I've been playing it, I think it's quite good in its own way, though I agree I do miss the RPG elements. Thousand Year Door was absolutely astounding, in my opinion. This game is "quite good", so I still like it, but it doesn't come close to the awesomeness of the second one. On the other...

Since we're reviving old threads, has anyone torrented on Linux / FreeBSD? I tried kTorrent, and it starts off strong at 300kbps, then within a minute or two drops to 3-5kbps and constantly bitches about corrupt chunks. The 'chunks completed' number just keeps going up and down, and you can basical...

Well, yes, I'd do it if I had to, but you shouldn't have to. Maybe if enough people complain to HP they'll stop trying to do stupid things like this. Doesn't the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act in the US essentially require them to prove that what you did screwed it up? HP seems to be treading dangerous ...

GAIM will solve AIM+MSN issues which is generally available by many distros.
Just make sure it's the 2.0 betas, as 1.5 has serious problems with AIM and MSN, especially with file transfers and DCs.

You could do it with AutoIt pretty easily. Can even scrape the screen for certain pixels or whatever.
