    See, I was thinking FreeBSD. But how does it differ other than just distro and binary file types? Is it that FreeBSD runs Gnome and PC-BSD runs KDE?

    How do you get Flash Player to work on Damn Small Linux

    There's an open source version, too. I had problems getting the proprietary flash player to work on Fedora and Redhat. It's called Gnash.

    24 Samsung 256GB SSD Drives Raided

    I am surprised that the SATA controllers on their RAID cards would support such a speed.

    Ubuntu (linux) users...

    Ubuntu is arguably the best distro out there because of the software available and how user friendly it is. As far as support goes, just Google "*laptop's brand and model* +Ubuntu drivers". Or if you know what hardware your laptop has(eg. Nvidia video card) you can find the drivers in the...

    Cluster Experiment

    I just now noticed your reply. :P I looked into Beowulf but I got confused as to what actual software to use. I do have it running under a different software though, I have 20 machines running clusterKnoppix and it is working as far as connecting goes. I am going to test it tomorrow to...

    Cluster Experiment

    I have over 30 workstations available for use at my schools tech lab. These are experimental machines so no question that I can use them, we've done about everything to them. I just want to throw a cluster together and see what I can do with them. The only problem I have is finding the software...

    Just wondering...

    I think they need to make touchpads bigger. It would be better for accurate work, CAD, graphics, etc. I have another mouse that I use.

    Steam issue...

    Time will tell... The Valve founders came from Microsoft, so start expecting to see that Microsoft business model taking shape. EA is gonna fall and then Valve will take their spot, and everyone will hate Valve just as we hate EA today.

    Intel core 2 Duo 3.16Ghz

    No, you cannot double a CPU clock just because it's dual core. The way it works is like this. Core 0(1) gets assigned a task but Core 1(2) gets another task. The can work in unison but that won't mean that the clock is doubled.

    How Long to Format a 500GB HD---via USB 2.0

    You don't break it... But the reason it takes a while is because it is setting the storage 'tables' in place and prepping it to store data. I can't remember how long my 500GB WD My Book took to format. It seems like greater than an hour.

    Steam issue...

    Restart Steam... Same happened to me when updating Empire: Total War. It's another one of Valve's bugs, and they've paid it no attention. They've been terrible lately especially with game/Steam client updates all the time but they never fix an actual problem. Before Valve got all these new...

    What are you currently playing?

    I have been playing the BFH beta and I've been playing Empire: Total War. Both are great but I have been dead tired from school lately so who knows when I will actually get to sit down and play. I cannot wait for Spring Break, plus I have a case of 'Spring fever' and a case of 'Senioritis'...
