| | I'm interested how many, and what, PC components died, or ceased working on your systems. Include ALL hardware you had to replace, ever since you started using comps. Don't include replaced components that still worked...
I'm still making my own list  |

I have been using computers for about 20 years now and I am fortunate to say that I didn't have that many problems. Here is a list that I will try to make from memory. 3 crashed hard drives 3 mother boards fried 2 video cards wasted 4 ram chips gone 1 power supply 3 dead monitors 2 CD-ROMs busted 1 sound card 1 5 1/4" floppy drive 2 3 1/2" floppy drives 1 fried CPU that's all I can remember. I don't think its a long list.

I'm just looking at some of the things I managed to save over the years I used computer (10 years to be precise  )... 4 HDD's 1 CPU and 1 MB fried 4 CD-ROM's few memory modules (small ones, ~4Megs) 1 graphix card 1 sound card 1 monitor few power supplies counntless 3.5" floppy drives 3 mouses, 3 keyboards (I smashed one keyboard against the wall  ) and 1 Commodore 64 with disk drive I think that about covers it... Components that are available to us in Yugoslavia, are of lower class, and tend to break more often, then components available in rest of Europe...

Time Travel - An Impossibility?

of all; What do people mean by "time travel" Now, i think most people think of traveling back or
forward in time, and being in a certain place at a certain time, in full body, when they think of
time travel. But is that possible? But surely time travel could just be seing, history, or future.
And how would it work? Surely it would involve opening time, and placing yourself, i....

Boy Strangles Old Lady To Play Online
this is what technology does KILL (5) QUOTE A 13 year old Vietnamese boy was arrested yesterday for allegedly strangling an 81 year
old woman to death. According to the local police, Dinh The Dan "confessed that he needed money to
play online games and decided to kill and rob the woman". The woman, Mai Thi Mau lost her life for
100,000 dong (around Rs. 244). After strangling her with a rope, Dan buried her in a pile of sand in
front of his house. The saddest part is that is that he won’t even go to prison!
Here’s what a local policeman had to say – "He is too young to be put in pr....
Paintball: Spray-and-pray Vs. One-shot-one-kill
A debate on two shooting styles (3) As we all know, paintball, from the "pro" standpoint, has become a game of who can release the more
constant stream of paint as opposed to its roots where players didn't even have hoppers (and if
that, ones that could only hold 40 paintballs). There are now two ways of play when it comes to
shooting styles: spray-and-pray, and the actual (and now traditional) way of aiming. Is it
better to be able to shoot 20+ balls per second at players? From my standpoint, I can see how it
can be a little scary with a ton of paint flying in your direction. You could lite....
Weffriddles

next level, so it's less likely that you could enter a random letter or word and get to the next
level. In fact, the answer isn't always necessarily a word or letter. Though the first few
levels are rather simple, the further your progress requires you to do a lot of "out-of-the-box"
thinking and go through multiple steps to reach the next level. Right now, I'm on l....

I'm Going To Kill My Computer Before It Kills Me.
It's just one thing after another... (25) So, I had an issue a while back with my computer. The power supply had died. The computer sat
dormant for about a month before it was fixed. So, last night, after putting the power supply in, I
boot up the computer and everything is dandy. Then the processor fan decides to start making noise.
Usually I can just kind of push gently on one part of it and the noise will go away. But no, not
this time. The noise got, easily, 20 times louder. So I shut my box down and pulled the fan and heat
sink. I fiddled with the fan for a bit.. took a sticker off.. adjusted a clip.. put i....
Cure For Aids
Medical Discovery of compound to kill Aids virus (10) Hold your horses folks - this might be one of the ultimate scientific breakthroughs in recent times.
All the so called "cures" for AIDS so far have been nothing but retroviral agents (cocktails of
several expensive drugs) - that only served to inhibit the AIDS virus. None were able to purge them
from your body for good. They could only limit the activity of the virus allowing you to lead a
normal (almost) life till the end. But with this new report in the Salt Lake Tribune, it seems Paul
D. Savage of Brigham Young University has invented a compound that actually HUNTS D....

Thc Found To Kill Leukemia Cells
(THC = active ingredient in marijuana) (13) http://www.affymetrix.com/community/wayahe...c_leukemia.affx A group in London discovered that
THC helps to kill leukemia cells by affecting a certain gene. MKP3, enhanced by THC, helps stop the
MAPK pathway, which some scientists believe is a factor in the survival of tumor cells. So another
plus for marijuana? Think that the U.S. will ever legalize it nationally, even if just for medical
purposes? I think we're just too conservative as a country to do it, even if it has some big
benefits =/....
