6-Core Desktop Processors
If more programs took advantage of more cores then it would be awesome.

Auto resize, the only good thing to come out of the forum switchover.

HEROES SPOILER!!
Yeah I heard about that, I am not too disappointed about it either.

I love it, also have been watching since the very first episode. Plus you can't beat this:

Looking for the name of a device
The easiest way is with either a Xbox 360 or PS3. Streaming from a PC to them is so easy. If you don't have either of those then it gets slightly more complicated, but that is just because there are so many different ways to do it.

What movie(s) did you last see?
Yeah most people probably wouldn't be into it as much as we are :smile: .

Windows Media Player
Heh, I still use winamp for music. It kicks the llama's [wagon].

Bittorrent Help
µTorrent is probably the lightest weight torrent client (at least it used to be if it isn't anymore) so I'd say it is my favourite and many others client.

What movie(s) did you last see?
It's fun to do the Firefly marathon because if you have a day off you can do it completely in that day. You can also do the movie Serenity and fan documentary Done the Impossible in that same day. All that would total around 14 hours, so you could also read both of the comic mini series Serenity and Serenity: Better Days (official and part of canon, written by Joss Whedon). I have not yet done this, I have done the watch all 14 episodes in one day thing before but I usually leave the movies for the next day. Also I haven't read the comics since I first bought them (they were OK). Awesome, I'd forgotten about the documentary. And it wouldn't be quite 14 hours: they only run 42 mins each without commercials. That's a precious 588 minutes of the best T.V. show ever. :thumbup: 14 episodes (with the pilot being almost double length) + movie + documentary ~= 14 hours.

Region specific DVDs?
You can generally make a DVD player region free also, although I don't know how legal it is to do so.

Favorite alcoholic beverage?
Screwdrivers are generally one of the first drinks people try, mostly because it is cheap and easy. They do come with the stigma of being for freshman women because of that though, which is disappointing because they actually do taste good. Actually many fruity drinks have that stigma of guys not supposed to be drinking them, and that has always made me mad.

Favorite alcoholic beverage?
I used to like Guinness a lot until a few Saturdays ago. I did not drink properly (started on empty stomach, didn't eat much and drank no water) so the next day I did not feel all that well, and Guinness hasn't sounded good to me since. Rum and cokes are probably my favourite, they are easy to drink and can be made strong so you don't need to drink much for it to affect you.

[Spoilers] Stargate Universe
I think he just vaporized or something. Not sure why the room getting cold would do that to him, but I don't think we'll see him again. Maybe if he was more of a main character.

What movie(s) did you last see?
Iron Man 2, which was frakkin' awesome.

Toy Story 3
I don't know if I'll see it in theaters or not, but it is kind of cool. Definitely will catch it when it comes out on blu-ray.

Upgrading my computer for Gaming.
I played ME2 on highest settings at 1920x1080 with my 4850, and either one of the cards you listed would be better.

[URGENT] Stupid software...
I sort of disagree with this. There is a [cabbage] load of stuff online that may not really be all that great for kids to see. Now obviously sitting down with them and explaining and being open and everything would be nice, it's just not always plausible. I do agree with you on the programs not really working all that well though, there are pretty easy ways around all of the blockers.

motherboard on wrong side of case?
Dells have some crazy [wagon] cases. I've never seen one that you couldn't stick a video card in though if you really wanted to. You might have to get one of those low rising video cards, more expensive and less powerful but you have to do what you have to do. A regular one should work fine though. It would really help if you took a pic and we could see what you are talking about.

Online Shopping (Question)
Pretty much every credit card has some sort of security deal where if someone steals the info and starts using it you aren't responsible. No reason at all to worry when using a CC online. If the reason isn't because of safety, and you don't have a credit card you will have to use something like PayPal. Just go to their website and see what the options are. You could probably link the account from your checking/savings account, or just send them a check or money order. But really you should just get a credit card. If you pay off your balance every month then you are never charged interest, it is basically completely free short term loans. Also if you have a rewards card you can get money back.

Forum software you like best?
Doesn't make much of a difference to me. I absolutely hate having to click "go" after choosing a forum from the drop down menu though, so just for that I am going to say whatever was used here before this software.

[Spoilers] Stargate Universe
I'm not seeing the point in this, I stated the reason before. As soon as an episode airs it should be free game to talk about. That as it may be, Stargate Universe airs on a Friday night in the USA but airs in the UK 11 days later. I'm not sure about you but not everyone likes to know spoilers about the next episode. So it's to be respectful to users who haven't seen the episode yet because it hasn't being aired. I absolutely hate and despise spoilers. But I am also not stupid, I know if an episode has aired that people will talk about it. I don't view topics until I have seen the latest episode.
