hardware acceleration...

Otherwise GPUs work will be done by CPU

Remember old games like Midtown Madness , whereby there is software and hardware rendering

lappy still under warranty la.. but can RMA in malaysia?? feels kinda mafan eh..

Interesting

makes me wanna try it out too...but no Wifi support eh..that would be a pain...maybe it's time to get homeplug

Yup, well i guess like weiyap did his last time, buy an external one (USB) should solved the problem

Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1


and Asus Xonar U1 Audio Station


if same price, which would u guys choose?

My vote goes to Creative SB X-Fi 5.1 ...but that Asus is not that bad also, well if the price is the same then maybe can opt of either one ...which one catches your eyes??

at first was looking at Xonar, but after checking the prices, i am leaning towards Sound Blaster...

last i know, Creative sound cards are always bloody expensive... probably X-Fi Surround 5.1 is old (almost 2yrs), thus price dropped quite a lot... but for sound, old does not necessarily means outdated...

and also, when comes to audio (less headphones and MP3 players), Creative will always get my vote...

@Fan
the dependency issue with debian and ubuntu is minimal...it does not hurt (really) to install a debain .deb in ur ubuntu, if cannot use, just let it go
now is quite a good time to try out ubuntu, specifically 10.4, is a long term support version. you will meet far less support issue in terms of software support with it. also, try out mint LTS, build based on ubuntu.

btw, anyone playing NFSW???

i just realize another plus from linux (am using now, live usb mode...forgot bring windows cd to reformat at office...)
normally we dont dare to open pdf files in browser rite, always download first...cos direct open will cause mega lag..
open pdf file in browser with linux, took less than 2 sec...


@pry,
OSX is the only way if we want to sniff into other hotspot and ppl system? can linux does it?

just realised that the sluggishness in my Magic is caused by memory card....
the memory card kaput last night and i switch to a temporary one...not so laggy anymore...

Same with me, Creative never fail me when comes to sound ...well, though its old, the quality is

My line got problem, cannot play liao ...and also when connect suddenly got kicked out

go 2.2 la...

if price is the same i guess i'll be going for the Creative card...that one have 5.1 output which is an advantage to the Asus one..and i heard review saying it's not bad either..u might wanna look into the drivers, cos i heard creative's driver kinda sucks...




btw gotten Starcraft II inivtation key...will benchmark after it's done..since gameplay is just 7 hours i don expect to play much, so at least i wanna get the optimum setting out

read some comments about CM 6...not so stable yet...RC 2 already though...you on froyo now?

Yup, the beauty of linux ..well, mine here got no problem opening PDF directly from browser without downloading it ...maybe because of the line also maybe

iinm, Linux also got some apps that can be use as like sniffing in OSX but the one in OSX is much more because like prasys did said that it allows you to actually see what people is doing
