The Samsung drives are poor when used on a NFS server with sync enabled - they are about 4x slower than the Intel 320 drives doing that. When used without sync, the same if no faster than the Intel drives - with the drawback of course that

Q 1. The problem is, the DPI you are using is 82.6 which is already the lower than any modern display I know of. You could try to find a 21 inch CRT [~19.5inch viewable] (should be cheap or free). Another option might be to buy a second han

I think you just need one HTTPS only cookie (Amazon seems to have two) and just check that one (in addition to the others) at purchase time, since that one can't be stolen. However, the sign in button is served from a insecure page, so

Though the right place at the right time is almost never at home watching TV. Getting out and meeting a lot of people greatly increases the chance that you will be in the right place at some point.

Facebook detects this when you move countries and makes you do a quiz about your friends pictures - though it can be pretty annoying [though I haven't seen it recently so maybe they've stopped].

Have you talked to these users about why they are doing this? $19.99/yr seems insanely cheap, somehow I find it hard to believe anyone semi-serious about sharing their music wouldn't want to pay it.
