Computers & Internet - 8 August 2006

I was thinking about getting the dell xps 400 but i dont want to buy something i will regret buying later. i would like an educated opinion on if its worth the money or if tyheir is someting better out there. the one i want comes with the nvidea 9800 gtx card and a 30 in wide screen flat panal moniter. it lookes like decent specs but im not a computer wiz by any means lol. you can find all the specs on on their xps website. I have also heard that dell dosent make the best computers so if anyone knows why, that would be helpfull as well, is it because of the programming?. The computer in total will cost about 1500 dollars.

Someone told me the math behind it was very simple, so I'm wondering how can it be considered secure.

I'm going to college this fall and am looking around for a good laptop to carry with me. I'm considering an apple because I've heard that they are reliable and don't crash. I'm open to any and all suggestions for good deals. I want something that can handle a lot of writing and can play games possibly (like world of warcraft). It's not required that it can do video games, though, because it's mainly for school (but it'd be a plus!). I want my laptop to have 1GB of RAM, wireless capabilities, portability, reliability, and hopefully cost under $1,200. =) Thank you.

I have MicroSoft Word 2000. Typically when I highlight any portion of a sentence and start typing it replaces what I highlighted. Now for some reason when I do it no longer replaces it. It just inserts what I am typing next to the highlighted portion, rather than replacing it. Anyone know what might be going on?

I swear this is true. Someone asked a specific question about what does the Church think Gay people should do about marraige or something like that. Being a Christian, I answered from the Christian perspective (of which I am qualified to do) and some witch emailed me saying that not everyone is a Christian and to stop pushing my religion down everyone's throat. People... I was just answering a question. I don't care what you believe. You can go worship that rock over there for all I care. You can sex with animals... who cares? He wanted a specific answer and I gave it to him. Leave me alone you witchie-poo. If you can't hear someone elses opinion, you don't need to be here.

OK -- here it is, August 2006. Blue Ray was established in 2003 (and later revised). Later in that same year, HD-DVD showed up. Now, 3 years later, both of these technologies not so "Cutting Edge" as say 3-D storage space and other formats on the horizon, is there any clear potential winner in this slow and Bureaucratic-laden race?
