Another "It's a trap!" desktop: Click on thumbnail to enlarge it... Also reactivated Geektool and the Bowtie theme I'm using is Clear 2.0 with some font modifications.

I'm quite curious, what is the model of the laptop? If that model has a nVidia chipset, it's most likely caused by a defect with the nVidia GPUs used in the chipset. If this the cause, the manufacturer should be able to repair it for free if they have issued a recall on them.

Nope... Internet Explorer 9 is still crap, and still can't load Melative properly for this instance because it doesn't load XHTML documents properly: Likewise, it loads properly in a browser, like Opera 10.5 Beta Opera does not support H264 HTML5 video and neither does Firefox. This is...

Despite of myself being Chinese, I only know English since I was born in the US and never got the chance to learn it. Maybe someday along with Japanese. In terms of computing languages, I know Visual Basic (including VB.net and RealBasic), HTML and I'm trying to teach myself Objective-C so I...

Tohno Minagi - Late 2006 Macbook Pro (MacBookPro2,2) (Mainly used when I'm at home and developing/programming stuff) Intel Core 2 Duo T7400 at 2.16 GHZ (4MB L2 Cache) 3 GB DDR2 667Mhz RAM (2GBx1 and 1GBx1) 320 GB Hitachi 7200 RPM HD ATi Radeon Mobility X1600 with 128MB Video RAM Mac OS X 10.6.2...

Like I have said before, Laptop GPUs are not upgradable unless they use MXM, which is not available on most consumer laptops except gaming laptops. This means you are pretty much stuck what you have since most of these GPUs are built onto the motherboard, making it impossible to upgrade to a new...

I'm in college right now and on the second year as an Accounting Major attending Rutgers University Newark. I originally attended NJIT for one year and afterwards transferred in since I couldn't get in since my high school GPA and also the ACT/SAT scores (those tests are pain in the butt), but I...

HD3200 from my knowledge is an integrated graphics card since it says "Hyper Memory." HyperMemory is not dedicated video RAM, it takes memory from your computer to store graphical stuff like textures and displays them onto the screen. With such a card, don't expect for the game to play at full...

Well, I think this one is a trap: (Click the snapshot for a full view) I tend to keep not that many icons on the desktops. Also, if are interested on my earlier Desktops I haven't posted here yet, you can browse my Ember profile, which is accessible from the full screenshot above.

True, since 3G is pretty much like a shared connection like with cable internet, except it's more constrained. This is why pages load faster sometimes and sometimes slower and not ideal for realtime stuff like IRC and gaming since the ping time is very high (in the 300 ms and sometimes higher)...

I own several Macs (atleast 4 that is in current use and 2 for old programs), but the problem with Flash on Macs is that the unusually high CPU usage when I go to play Youtube videos, especially on the Mac mini G4 which the CPU hits 72% and also the infamous Flash Crash bug that Adobe haven't...

I joined because I joined... Well, I haven't done forums for most of the time, but since everything else (like the Pokemon Anime) besides the Pokemon Games don't interest me much anymore, I tend to post in forums with other topics. Besides this forum, I participate in a mostly Anime oriented...

From this week, I have watched: Kobato 20 Sora no Woto Ep 10 My Thoughts:

There is not much I can say since Satellite Internet is known to be very slow and expensive because the data has to transmit from the dish to the Satellite from space. If I were you, I would look into Mobile Broadband like 3G if you are unable to get cable, fiber or DSL. Not all Mobile...

I use KUbuntu 9.10 on one of my other laptops with the help of rEFIt on my Macbook Pro (it's a very helpful bootloader that doesn't require you to hold down the option key to boot to another partition). If you going to use Ubuntu first time, I suggest using KUbuntu since it's rather easier to...
