    A new argument in favor of DC?

    A new argument in favor of DC?

    Here are a couple of sources we used during our discussion: http://www.overclockers.com/tips30/ http://www.devhardware.com/forums/dev-folding-29/will-folding-decrease-my-processor-s-life-span-64446.html And yes, I realize the second could be the opinions of people who could be wrong. :D

    I also like Kubuntu due to KDE vs. Gnome. Also, NVIDIA drivers are pretty easy to get, they can be installed with the package utility within Ubuntu/Kubuntu.

    iTunes for Linux

    I use XMMS... but it is obviously most similar to Winamp. As far as iTunes... I don't know, I don't use it. amaroK is another player within Linux though, and the interface looks similar. You might try that?

    WoW. Pet Trainers Locations.

    You can also learn different skills for different types of pets. Once you train a new type of pet, fight along side it until you learn its abilities, then you can transfer those abilities to your other pets.

    IIS, ASP.net, VB.net help!

    No, see, I DON'T want the dialog to show when you are already logged into the domain. So now it seems to be working, by not showing the dialog box, and still pulling the correct username from the windows identity.
