So I am "worked up" about it, because it's Newegg. If it were Mom & Pop computer store, I'd probably shrug it off. But Newegg can and should have just as good a security as an Amazon or Walmart.

You and gabbo are right. It's not necessarily the case the password is stored in plaintext. I'll update my post. However, stored in plaintext or stored in an encrypted, reversible manner, the password is not stored in what most folks would

I would add the marquee tag reinterpreted for 2011: 1. Tweets constantly scrolling through a sidebar 2. Unstoppable huge slide show above the content you claim to want me to read And of course, Autoplay video with sound.

That assumes that across all jobs and professions that there is some uniform distribution of the sexes. But I don't believe that to be the case. The sexes do divide themselves differently depending on profession and there are many reasons

The theory, often claimed, is that "X" is a man's world. As I am sure you understand, all it takes is one data point to falsify a theory. I have provided dozens of well known women that have made enormous progress for computing. It took me

Can someone explain what I am seeing (or not seeing)? It renders pyramids on Chrome, but just a black screen (with the words ZORRO PARK) on Firefox 4, IE 9, Safari and Opera. The wiki on WebGL suggests this should work on Firefox 4.

You're probably right, if you're buying new. I once read about a strategy that made a great deal of sense to me, and that was to buy a 2-3 year old used car from a new car dealer, and sell it after 2-3 years to a private party. There were a
