OK I'll look into buying one here soon, and thank you.

I can't. I was a gift from DoorTech. And how would I run my computer while I wait for a new PSU?

Not enough hours on it to have it go bad. If you recall it was brand new a few months ago and I turn off my machine at night.

You know WOM I understand you don't like me. I can't change that, so be it. That doesn't give you permission to treat me like dirt every chance you get. Besides, you are a moderator. Your supposed to have a better attitude. If you don't like my posts, by all means, do me a favor and ignore me. On the other hand if your post was meant to be funny, use some smileys. Thanks.

Just haven't heard from you in a bit, wanted to say hi. Oh and the fan on the PSU is going out, not sure how to fix that. Thought you might have some advice. Wonder where Starkers is at? Hope he is OK.

Anyone heard from Starkers? How about DoorTech? I was wanting to talk to both of them.

Going to have to disagree with you Frogboy. I think technology is heading more and more towards what we see in Star Trek TNG.

I trust USB with my data. I use an external hard drive connected via USB. Never had any issues. Ever. COA stands for Certificate Of Authenticity. It's a little sticker that comes with the purchase of Windows and it has the 25 digit code used to activate Windows on it along with a hologram of holographic strip to show it's authentic.

So they take away features you like and you still want one? Interesting.

Sounds like you're in the market for a PS4 as well then right?

Well it's just good to know that the console doesn't have to phone home every hour. Still, I am looking into the PS4 due to Final Fantasy.

[quote who="Mystikmind" reply="16" id="3373036"]Intel.... i only ever bought 1 AMD system and that system somehow managed to run games more slowly than the system it replaced, even though on paper, it was more than twice as fast. Never touched AMD again[/quote] Might want to look into the new AMD processors. 8 core. 4.4 GHz. Cheaper than Intel. Good stuff.

To the OP: Are you thinking of Intel or AMD?

Looks like Microsoft got a hint that gamers don't like a few things about the new Xbox One. http://news.cnet.com/8301-10805_3-57590134-75/microsoft-pulls-a-180-reverses-xbox-one-always-on-drm-and-used-games-policy/

I heard Final Fantasy 15 will be on Playstation 4. Guess I know what I what to get.

Actually I do know more than three people. Why do you feel the need to poke fun at my expense?

ARESIV - great post. One thing I would add is that almost everyone I know has a tablet and they all run Android. Microsoft seems to be failing in that market as well.

There is a simple solution. Tell Microsoft what you think with your wallet. Don't buy Windows 8. Stick to Windows 7.

I just had my first look at the PS4. Still too expensive for my blood. The only game I would end up playing on it would be Final Fantasy 14 or 15, what ever one is the next in line to be released. As for the XBox One I will hold off on getting one until they make one that does not spy on people and phone home all the time. I understand your post. I think a big part of the issue is that there are more games for consoles than for the PC.

Weather program in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

Hey guys. Sorry I haven't posted in a bit, I've been busy working. The computer we all built is running great, it got a newer video card the other day. Fan on the PSU is acting up. Any how, I was wondering if there is a simple little program to display the weather temp in degrees that will sit next to my clock in the taskbar. Thanks!

I just got a Nook. Now there is talk of getting rid of the Nook division? Figures.
