I love the Dixie Chicks work - their productions are world class as their album sales verify. they have reached the peak of their chosen career and IMHO should be treated with the respect anyone who attains the highest level of their profession. I doubt any of the posters here have achieved as much. This whole thing started because of a remark made during an overseas concert - I have personally experienced many if not most US performers doing exactly the same and getting the same instant applause. The US is sus!! Your international respect has plummeted and the views put forward in the thread in some explains it. cheers john

7200rpm notebook Hard drive cheers john

Doesn't "dedicated" graphics mean that the CPU and its RAM aren't used for graphics? Or am I mixing metaphors here? you are correct - most laptops share the CPU and 128 of the Ram for graphics. The puter I posted has a fully dedicated video card and it's 512 meg and a Nvidia which the 3D guys tell me are the best for graphics. cheers john
