So he just acknowledged what he did was wrong and left? What a stand up guy... Except for the bad thing(s) he did...

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not.... lol

Maybe it's because i don't speak french? X(

PS - Fix my Philips TV. I've got a Philips DVD player and when i use the DVD remote it makes the light on my TV blink (little blue on light)

That'd be a fairly large abuse of powers

whipped already

@Portgas: Not surprised

Hey Kollop

I use the Windows XP Theme "Royale Noir" - Did you make it Noir?

Your AVG is out of date Arfeh X(

Just installed the SSD into my Laptop with Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit

I timed start up at 14 seconds, lol. Shut down is about 4-5 seconds. The SSD registers as 6.9 for the windows rating.

Only one snag but it doesn't seem to matter. If your laptop sees your drive as SCSI then the Intel Toolbox thing doesn't work. But it looks like TRIM is activated and working automatically so it shouldn't matter for me

Solid State Hard Drives. Calling one a flash drive is like calling a tricycle a Harley Davidson

All SSD's have a failure date depeding on the amount written to it (and deleted more importantly) The intel is expected to last around 5 years. It's at least covered for the first 3 years.  I'm aware of the limited writes and slowing of the drive over time and the reasons for this (I was looking at the G2 because it supports TRIM and Intel's G2 drives don't "age" like other drives)

There's also an issue with write amplification which Intel's will succumb to (all drives do. Just some do it far slower then others)

I'm aware of steps to help reduce the number of writes (use a portion of system memory for FF Cache and storing larger files like movies and things to a seperate drive (External USB in my case)

One of the things i was concerned with was the interface speed for my sata hard drive on my laptop. I can't find anywhere that says if it's top speed is 1.5GB/s or 3.0GB/s. The intel will fly either way but some of the newer SSDs just coming out max out at the 3.0GB/s because thats the top speed for the interface until they start shipping with 6.0GB/s. I'd feel cheated buying a new SSD at an outrageous price and only be able to use half of it's ability

This from the person who encouraged his family not to research anything...

"You want to work out how much things will cost you with your construction bonus?" - Planets-Build-Check costs... Not much simpler....

I don't quite follow the part about killing science. If a person has an 80% bonus that means he's got at least twice as many RPs in the field as someone with 40%. So when you kill 3% of his RPs it would be at least twice as much as the 40% person for RPs killed.

So i just checked to see what the loss would be. i checked 3% loss for my 83% econ bonus and 3% loss for my 37% Welfare. I lose 3.8 times as many RPs with the Econ compared to the Welfare
