    Really awesome day for me today. Firstly, results came out today. I didn't think I'd be nervous, but I actually was before I got to bed. Ended up doing really well in four courses, and the one I was worried about, I scraped a pass. I really shouldn't be that happy since on average, my marks have dropped this year, but considering how close I was to failing that last course, I can't help but grin at the fact that my study plan ain't messed up.

    @below: Hardly "wallet-friendly", but I was going to get it anyway. I'll have to see if I'll survive the next semester with this new temptation around the house. (Pre-ordered DBZ:Burst Limit, comes out tomorrow)



    Last but not least, my ISP upgraded my account without notice. They brought out better plans, and for the same price, I can now get 30GB of monthly downloads. In Australia, where internet is expensive and metered, a 50% increase from my 21GB/month means a lot. I was going to bust the limit this month and get shaped to 64kbps, but now I can use it with even more liberty. I love my ISP

    It really has been awesome today, so I might even drop down to the newsagent and try my luck with the Lotto..

    Off to play DCM4 now while I wait for the MGS1-3 clips to finish.

    Yeah it's a pretty geeky thing to laugh about. I had a real good chuckle about these two products with a coworker today.

    I've been smiling for the past two days. For one, it's exam week, which means I get about 150 easy questions done in about half an hour, with two exams per day. It also means that I have two hours to do absolutely nothing. Third best thing about it is that I get out early.

    Though the main reason I'm smiling today is because both of today's exams are being held in computer labs. Awesome.

    Edit: And now I'm smiling because I'm completely finished with all of my exams.

    This made me laugh more than smile:

    Mio's Knight Rider GPS speaks with the voice of KITT


    “For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”

    why wouldn't I be able to, monitors have been "hd" for ages you know >_>, that monitor supports up to 1920x1080@85hz or 2048x1536@66hz, the one on the right goes up to 1920x1080@33hz or 1680x1050@60hz.

    edit: like BOC said.

    It's the chipsets. Conroe on 865 and Phenom on nForce3. It's completely ridiculous how they even got that working. They're not "supposed" to work.

    I was just wondering how you'd connect that up. HDMI to DVI didnt' pop into my head at that time.

    Nevertheless, thanks for the info.

    I don't use hdmi or dvi... digital cables actually have less bandwidth then analog cables you know...
    Atm i just use component for the ps3, but will change that to a vga cable, 360 uses vga too.

    You should really hook up your PS3 to a HDTV. I believe it's pretty cheap nowadays to get one, since in my region they're always on sale in every other PC Fair/show.

    My monitors are HD enough, plus I sit fairly close to the screen, plus colors and contrast on these beat any LCD/Plasma out there.
    I will upgrade my monitors once SED tv's are released.
    Buying a HDTV just as a tv would mess up my 5.1 setup aswell, so nah i'll patiently wait, just having a bigger screen doesn't do it for me.
