forget roses and dinner at a restaurant, oh and the dreaded "lets talk" - this is the solution to fixing probs with my girlfriend!
Is the included gfx chip (not the upgraded one) good enough for smooth 1080p playback via the HDMI output or do we need to get the upgraded one? What about the CPU? Is the stock one good enough or do you need to choose on of the other options? Just want to know what the minimum requirement is for good BluRay/mkv 1080p playback without spending too much. If i don't need to upgrade the CPU or gfx chip then I would rather put the money into the harddrive capacity and of course the BluRay drive.
Yeah, I cant believe at that price they give just a BD-ROM - not a burner! Talk about stingy. When you pay $7000 for a machine - everything in there should be the best there is given that they are taking a huge premium of several thousand dollars just for the overclock.
i'd like one thanks!
What is there to even skip on a MediaFire download page? It is pretty instant. They dont even have the dreaded countdowns or anything. Of all the free file hosting sites - MediaFire definitely ranks one of the best where MegaUpload and Rapidshare would be the worst - because those sites truly deserve skipscreen.
Good idea - some suggestions:

1. would like to see an offline version that I could carry around on a USB stick.
2. Allow us to click on a program and be taken to the homepage so we can find out what it is about.
3. Moving forward, you should sort the listing out A-Z. Right now it is a mess. In the future if it does expand - you would need to organise everything into sections eg internet.

Other programs you should include:

Microsoft Security Essentials
Combined Community Codec Pack (Handles pretty much every audio/video format going with a nice 5MB file size)
Avira
Internet Explorer 8 (If someone insists on using IE - they may as well have the latest much more secure version)
Paint.NET
Windows Live Messenger
Yahoo Messenger
Google Talk
AIM
Daemon Tools Lite
ImgBurn
Comodo Internet Security
Does this work with sites that require a login/pass eg. Discussion forums (vBulletin/Invision)?
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
