It's likely choking because you're visiting javascript heavy websites. I've noticed this issue with Firefox now taking an entire cpu core utilization to 100% when I have a small handful of tabs open. Makes webbrowsing very slow as Firefox isn't too multithreaded and this is on a significantly...
I don't understand what has happened in the last few months but I went to the Lenovo website yesterday and I saw that you can't buy a single laptop with an AMD processor anymore! I thought trinity was a decent product but I can see that Lenovo has decided to dump their AMD laptops and now once...
I'm looking to buy a powerleap PL-P4/N socket adapter. It allows you to adapt a Northwood socket 478 processor into a motherboard that is socket 423. I have about 3 systems with 1GB of RDRAM (yes I know very expensive!!!!) and I would like to upgrade them from their puny 1.7ghz P4 processors to...
Alright, after about 12 hours of fiddling with photoshop, I finally figured out how to take a line-art drawing or anything of the sort and make vectorized paths with it. Pretty much all you do is create a new layer, select the part you want with the magic wand, right click and tell it to make a...
This program is garbage... Why? It performs no MD5 calculation on the files to see if they're actually identical files. I have no idea what this program does but it seemed to miss pretty much every duplicate file I had on my computer. I know this because I used another program called "Duplicate...

I have some software that runs exclusively on Windows 2000 and I'm trying to upgrade a P4 machine to something that uses less power but is comparable in performance.
Anyway I found a power supply that should be very suitable for my needs and has very high efficiency...
Anyway I don't care about a pre-packaged computer, mostly looking for a good motherboard and good power supply. I've been looking around at some ITX motherboards but the problem is, in order to get dual displays, you've got to use the DVI and the HDMI but what I really need is an ITX motherboard...
Is anyone able to find out who manufactures the power supply used in the latest mac mini? What is the closest PC out there to the mac mini? I'm interested in the mac mini's efficiency and performance (potentially) but not the price tag nor the Apple OS.
Ok I've got a problem. I saved the BMP file then tried to archive it up, problem is the file size got reduced by Winrar all the way to a tiny little 26KB rar file, 46KB Zip File from its original, portly previous 1MB uncompressed size. The problem is that I think the Zip program detected the...
Huh? But each bit can't be 255 values, it can only be read as two values, "on or off".. That was my point. I wasn't trying to make a Bi-level image represent the data in a grayscale image, I was just merely pointing out in my steps that I needed it to be bi-level and that using grayscale...
Alright in photoshop, I created an Image that is 2896X2896 pixels. In Grayscale mode, in the "filters section" I told it to create noise, lots of it, as much noise as it could make. Then saved the file as a BMP with no sort of compression whatsoever. The File came out to 8MB.. Reason for this is...
