DigitalBoyz I have a gash in my elbow that would disagree with the "Barking dog does not bite" statement. I dont' think the dogs intend to bite people purposely, I think they are just so frightened, it's an instinct for them to react.

DigitalBoyz I did it the old fashioned way and built my own system. I have a 3.4Ghz system, 1 Gig DDR Ram, GeForce 5400 AGP video card. For me it was cheaper to build it myself because I already had the case and the hard drive.

DigitalBoyz In college I used to download full length movies not realizing the legality issue behind it. Now I stick to watching the stuff like TV programs on the abc website. If I had something like TIVO I'd download it to the hard drive, and then watch it later.
