Whoever mentioned the sequence and the Golden Ratio, did you like just get done reading the Da Vinci Code or something

jrowa does maths!

I just built my new computer. :D

Are you posting from it now? =-O

Plus, specs or gtfo.

This ravioli is kickass btw, and built a computer? Specs!

What meat and sauce?

[QUOTE=Riva;16041666]Haha. You should bid goodbye to your wife and children then, and proudly proclaim, "I march on Valhalla!" Then you can shoulder your axe, walk out into the snow, and be found three days later, sitting straight up on a rock in the middle of a forest, frozen to death.[/QUOTE]

Core 2 Q6600

8800GTS (G92 revision)
1TB HDD
22" LCD

etc

:D

And yes.

No one knew my lyrics, sadness.

Oh well, bed for me. Hopefully I'll sleep.

I was going to get a 8800 GTS but I thought I might get just a 8600 GTS to save money, since I am not that big of a gaming nut anymore.

And good work on the terabyte hard drive.

Have a nice sleep, Vince.

how much did it end up costing?

@ luc

nice one luc. you should almost be able to run vista on that

[QUOTE=riva]What meat and sauce?[/QUOTE]

Just regular Ricotta filled. But with a savory Meat sauce made by myself :D

Both of the things you mentioned gained immense popularity because of that book.

quite coincidental is all.

Well, My major is in a branch of mathematics and I'm taking a course that deals with number theory this semester, so Occam's Razor sez otherwise :p

I had this really good pasta in Prague once. It was vegetarian, but not awful. Tempeh, spinach, pine nuts and spaghetti in a very light virgin olive oil sauce. Sounds bad but it was incredibly tasty and filling.

EDIT: It's just like how Jason Bourne has been around since the '80s, yet people are only latched onto his name now that 3 movies were made about it.

And Leonardo was talented, sure, but people always seem to get caught up in the hype surrounding him these days, and forget masters like Vasari, Boticelli, Vecchio, Donatello, and of course [I]the [/I]Master, Raphael.

No dude. I'm a cooking kinda guy. And that sounds wonderful. I like to make my own sauces. Alfredo, Hot Sauces, pasta sauces, mammal sauces lulz

I suck

Shows what you know.

I'm running Vista Home Premium 64 bit and it runs faster and smoother than XP and looks better, and is much more streamlined.

The hate against it is unwarranted.

And I paid $2400 including shipping, but keep in mind I was buying completely from the ground up so that included all my peripherals etc.

Still at least a couple hundred cheaper than any prebuilt, and I have the satisfaction of knowing I put it together myself.

It took me hours though, this was my first ever build, and the cpu cooler was a real bitch for some reason.

But it was worth it.

I'm just finishing up some tweaking, then I'm going to install some games.

Let me know how running older games on Vista goes. I am worried about the memory gluttony and also the backwards compatibility issues. Other than that, the other bad marks against it can be remedied out of the box.

Vista is gei for a lot of reasons

Performance is arguably not the most important of them

Dude I cook my fetuccini alfredo in a frying pan and I have to mix it by tossing it. It's hard. I learned how to do it when I worked at this cool italian resteraunt. The alfredo sauce is basically just heavy cream, garlic, and ricotta.

Well, my poor ability at cooking probably has some connection to the kinds of foods I like

I can eat things like scampi every so often but usually I don't like to eat foods that have heavy cream, a lot of butter or more than three or four ingredients.

No wonder I don't gain weight

Alfredo is best made rather than bought. There are a few brands here that can be up to par with homemade, but generally they're too thick and are void of a garlic aroma, which is why I like about my Alfredo.

Well I don't play many old games, but the real problems I would have with older games is that I am running 64 bit Vista, that is what would cause incompatibilities and not neccessarily Vista itself.

Garlic is cool

@ 64-bit operating systems, I wonder why there was no intermediate step of 32-bit processors with 64-bit addressing space like they did with the old 16-bit dinosaurs

Well, I'll only cook chicken alfredo every once in awhile. Because you're right. It's not great for you. Very fattening. I mainly eat alot of red meat during the week then treat myself on the weekend. But I also exercise everyday. Or try to. Though I suck at it. I'll work out for like 15 mins and get bored.

I might dig up my copy of XP if I end up buying a new pre-made computer, or requesting that XP is installed on it if I have one built.
