Declaration of Homestead

I recently moved to a new house, and today I received a letter, probably from a lawyer group, on declaring my home a "homestead" for $30. They go on to say: A property recorded Homestead will help to shield a certain amount of the equity you have in your home for satisfaction of several ty...

Hehe, only in California. I don't believe a word of it unless they have actual proof that someone has died from eating Oreos cookies. If they can't prove it, then the lawsuit will go nowhere.

Neither Singer nor executives at 20th Century Fox were immediately available for comment on the allegations.
It would be nice to hear one of these exec say: The Islamic group can kiss me where the sun don't shine.

Is it something to do with the chipset or the hard drive? I know when I setup my wife's pc with Win2k, I installed using the onboard IDE controller. I then installed a Promise card with drivers and turned off the pc. I then switched over the ribbon to the Promise card and had no problem with Win2k.

The AnandTech faq says nothing about that.
I had no idea that PCA had a free email. I guess I'll have to look into that. Thanks.

I had the same problem with my wife's pc last month. I thought it was the video card, but even swapping it with another card did the same thing. So then I installed a PCI video card I had laying around and it worked. So I guess the AGP slot quit working. I trashed the mobo as it was an old Abit LX6.

What's the deal with Anand's Forums and Yahoo?

Because of all the spam, I finally got another new email account with my new Verizon DSL connection. I'm very reluctant in giving this email out to just anyone, including forum boards. So I created a free Yahoo email account for all activity on the net. Every board that I belong to accepted it with ...

Here is what they said: We will be coming out with version 7.0 late May of this year. Paid registered users of version 6.0 only are entitled to a free ...

That is what I use: 512 megs of ram running win2k pro. You will get slightly better performance with Win2k because it won't have all that bloat that XP has, according to several experts that encode DvD's. I did a clean install of Win2k with SP3 and nothing else. It's bare bones setup with only all m...

Anti Virus software

Since I finally have DSL, I want to install a decent AV software. I currently have Norton AV 2001, but it seems like the viruses target Norton. What options do I have? I've seen this one before, but don't know how good it is: http://www.grisoft.com/html/us_index.htm?session=e3c0451ddd4e93bc64cf693ac...
