  1. Anyway, as i've always said, if they didn't charge such extortionate prices for their software,music,films................. perhaps most of us could afford them and we wouldnt want to risk buying from the underworld, will they never learn?

    Can you name another software company that charges less for software of equal size and complexity?

    Besides, when you buy a new computer, which is how 95% or more of people get their (legitimate) copy of Windows, you're paying about half that.

  2. what could they hope to get out of this if they aren't doing a man in the middle attack? this is the point of ssh, is it not? as long as you don't fall for a mitm attack, you shouldn't have anything to worry about. we all know the mict love to monitor internet traffic, so there really shouldn't be anything surprising here.

    they might have noticed a lot of ssh traffic from you, perhaps going to hosts that have been known at some point to be serving anti-whatever web pages, and they decided to monitor your activities more closely. guess you'll find out next time you pass through immigration. :o

    did you notice anything on port 23 or other common ports?

    maybe it's time to start ssh'n though a vpn.

  3. I've only dealt with the HP's business line of desktops, and that is all I would recommend as well as they have standard 3 year on site warranties (some of the super deal cheap models might include only 1 year).

    None of the business line of desktops had warranty stickers over the case denying entry as that would make it rather hard for IT staff to work on them without voiding the warranty.

  4. Your internet is more likely to go belly up, with much more frequency too. :o

    Installing an additional video card or two will not invalidate your warranty, it's a trivial procedure. You can get a decent HP with on board video for around 20k, then add dual head video card or two, or try find a video card with quad display support. The dual cards might be better for your purposes as if one fails, you will at least be able to use two monitors with the other card, and likely a third monitor using the on board video.

  5. So what do you think is a solution and alternative to the BS laws of owning land in LOS?

    I can't believe I read all that whining. It took you that long to get to the point because you thought we wanted to know about your inane reasons for being poor yet picky? How old are you?

    This should (hopefully) fit into your budget and land ownership requirements. Enjoy.

  6. Be careful with Cali Wow. They won't stay in business long giving away memberships like that. They've already gotten rid of hand towel service, and next on the chopping block is...

    California WOW Xperience Public Company Limited. filed its AR on February 20, 2009 for the period ending December 31, 2008. In this report its auditor, Pricewaterhousecoopers, gave an unqualified opinion expressing doubt that the company can continue as a going concern.

  7. What is your idea of reasonably priced? HD video editing is pretty high end. Which software are you using?

    Any of the shops in Panthip or Fortune will assemble the computer for you, which I suggest you let them do as it will help in finding any DOA parts.

    Based off my recent purchase, I'd say you're looking at about 30k for a decent system.

  8. Your RAID array could be using a bit of CPU cycles, which would slow down 3d mark. I wouldn't worry so much about benchmarks for drives in a desktop scenario.

    Which of the following hard drive config opens apps faster and gives you the least stuttering and delays when there is momentary or heavy disk IO?

    Stripped Raptors

    Single Raptor

    160GB

    250GB

    I'd suggest loading your OS and apps on a lone Raptor and putting your games on the other. That would probably work out best for you since a stripped array using the on-board controller won't help you out much anyway, especially when running CPU intensive tasks such as games or 3d benchmarks as the cheap on-board controllers require CPU cycles themselves.

  9. So she got laid, so what? If you didn't get any while she was gone, you must be THE ONLY man in Thailand who keeps it zipped for years over a gf he has barely even met.

    She had sex with another guy(s?) and STILL came back to your whinny ass.

    IMO, she should dump you!

  10. As far as the BBC being objective about the history of the current situation, a BBC "expert" explained to us simpletons that Thaksin was removed from power after he lost support following the tsunami and bird flu epidemic. :o
