  1. I'm seriously lagging, only at 30 stars or so.
  2. This made me chuckle, especially given the username.
  3. So, is the 9.90 extra per month that I've been paying Comcast for "3-5 Additional IP's" a valid charge? I have the router with 3 lines running to 3 different computers Technically it's valid, but from the sounds of it you really don't need 3 Public IP addresses. I would cancel that and tell them "you only have one computer now". Then use the router like you normally would. ^ That is inaccurate. You still only have 1 IP to the outside (ie. to Comcast), the other IP's are internal. Look again. The modem is the only device on the 100 subnet [it could be totally different like 216.109.112.135 - doesn't matter]. Everything from the router back is on subnet 0 [a different network]. The rest of the IP's are just bogus representations of real IP's. Since the router is likely to be set up with DHCP anyway? He won't have to worry about that. The router will feed him his IP's just like Comcast feeds the IP to his modem. Was this directed at my statement? I was basically saying the same thing, just without the jargon. Also, the diagrams just popped up when I googled "home internet diagram", so I realize a more accurate representation of the clients would've been to specify that they were getting their addresses through DHCP. Though maybe I need to start speaking in more technical terms if I plan on passing the CCNA

  8. I've been following it today as well. The current price doesn't reflect all this stuff just yet. But I can guarantee you in the coming days their stock will soar. Not to go OT here, but most information has been "priced in" before today's announcement. ..... Also, no user-replaceable battery with this. Huge turnoff there I would think to a majority of users.
  9. I really wish I had bought Apple stock two weeks ago like I planned. Also, never put your eggs in one basket.
  10. More pics of the MacBook Air: Nifty.
  11. Thanks for the heads up. This is a fantastic program and I'm glad they're keeping it.
  12. The fact that Georgia got hosed while LSU rose only further proves that point. Maybe they should've won their division?
  13. Here is the visual Georgia included with their presentation of what this year's tournament would have looked like:
  14. 4 plays for the Giants from the 1/2 yard line. 4 straight stops by Buffalo. Huge.
  15. gotta respect those teams who have the testes to play some real competition (unlike chicken shi'ite uf).
  16. uf: the arrogance of the yankees with the winning tradition of the cubs.
  17. In Alan Greenspan's new book, he suggests that the Fed will have to raise interest rates into the double digits in the foreseeable future to fight off inflation. Let's hope it never comes to that. My fiancee and I have been keeping an eye on housing prices here in the area over the last 6 months, and it's amazing how hard this credit crunch has hit. The last report I saw had the housing surplus at 24(!) months, we'll be looking to buy at around the 18-24 month mark when prices have bottomed out.
  18. http://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/p...y/20071211a.htm The Federal Open Market Committee decided today to lower its target for the federal funds rate 25 basis points to 4-1/4 percent. Incoming information suggests that economic growth is slowing, reflecting the intensification of the housing correction and some softening in business and consumer spending. Moreover, strains in financial markets have increased in recent weeks. Today?s action, combined with the policy actions taken earlier, should help promote moderate growth over time. Now that I've graduated and have a steady flow of income, I'm slowly turning into a finance geek, and pay attention to announcements like these. Most of my money is in liquid savings, so rate cuts like we've seen over the last few months do me more harm than good. The seemingly last vehicle for high yields and liquidity are these Reward Checking accounts that are popping up throughout the country at local credit unions. There's one here in South Florida that I've recently opened, which gives you an APY of 6.01% each month with a few strings attached (You have to use their debit card for 12 transactions each month, pay 3 bills a month with their service, and receive online statements). Hopefully they will keep their rates up amidst these announcements. There doesn't appear to be any financial-based thread on this board, so I figured this could become a thread to discuss any future news, as well as any personal financial discussion (Savings, Credit Cards, 401(k)s, etc.)
  19. Per Fox's & BeefWillinghams request: Just wanted to bring this over to the new page. And also announce that it is my new desktop background and myspace picture.
  20. One of my roommates was an Architecture major at UF. Pretty sure he spent more hours in studio than he did sleeping in his own bed.
  21. Bills special teams is kinda good. Have been for a few years
