I'd like to see it made possible to verify the certification of cables, but NOT to verify the exact brand of cables. HP has already proven that,...
Normal keyboards have one context-menu key, and two Windows keys. You can afford to lose one Windows key, but you can't afford to lose the only...
I usually use hdparm to erase drives. The only tricky thing: modern BIOSes tend to send the "freeze security state" command before handing...
I've even run the thing on Pentium M with 915GM. In fact, that thing thoroughly trounced an Atom with GMA950 -- the Pentium M got between 5 and...
The worst thing about Celerons -- not sure if it's still true -- is that they have SpeedStep disabled. Therefore, they have absolute crap battery...

Oh, and please do test that game (or demo) on the Asus card!
Here's a good game to test EAX support: Uru: Ages Beyond Myst. (Even the demo will work, actually.) If EAX5 is working, you'll get nice,...
