Well said, Junyah. :)

You'll find some help in the Virus forum.

Moved. :)

(Obviously there's an error somewhere in this formula, but that's the fun of it :mrgreen:

Your error was here:

5. 2a^2 - 2ab = a^2 - ab

Since ab= a^2, then your expression above is the same as below:

2a^2 - 2a^2 = 0

Muses at how much of a math nerd I am. ;)

That's not true, actually.

If you substitute -3 for x, you get \sqrt{3} = i\sqrt{-3}, that is, \sqrt{3} = -\sqrt{3}.

Actualllly....;)

if x=-3 then sqrt{-(-3)} = isqrt{-3}

Then, we know that sqrt{a} x sqrt{b} = sqrt{a x b}

Therefore, we have:
sqrt{3} = sqrt{-3 x -1}

Which equals:

sqrt{3} = sqrt{3}

It's kinda funny.

It's a Canadian company, and allows Canadian-only visitors, yet the servers are based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. ;)

I'm pretty confident that if I had to guess, that's against the ToS of MSDN.

:cheesy:

Amseterdam has a distinct Red Light District.

Just post it in there, and PM when its ready with a link. :)

i dont get that much spam actually, max 5 a day usually

That's alot, compared to my 0. ;)

If you want, to can just post a nice tutorial in the hardware section, and I can sticky it.

Sorry to see ya go Dave. :sad:

That's odd. Win98 and ME are 2 different operating systems.

Win 98 SE from what I recall (its been 8 years ;) ) is the most basic form of Win98.

But I guess that doesn't help ya on why it isn't working.

Could ya just reclarify what the exact problem is?

Thanks for everything, Christian.

On what basis do you make this judgement? If you're an atheist, do you really believe that you "evolved from a rock"?

*Cough Miller Experiment cough* ;)

If I was an oracle, I'd say this will soon be a very argumentative thread. :)

Do you ever play games? MacBooks suck at gaming, so get the MacBook Pro if you want to do any real gaming.

Not so much, although I'll always have the ability to use my PC for that.

How big do you want your screen to be? The MacBook's only come in 13" models, whereas MacBook Pro comes in 15" and 17".

That might be a small issue. I've tested the 13" before, and they seem fine to me. However, I might be looking at the 15"

Intel Core 2 Duos are inside both MacBooks/MacBook Pros, so unless you need really, really fast clock speeds, the MacBook's 1.8 Ghz Core 2 Duos should be perfectly fine.

Excellent.

Processor speed isn't quite as critical at this point, because multitasking is more about RAM than about your processor's clock speed.

:o Shows how much I know about hardware...

Joeprogrammer, thanks for the response. :)

Ok, I'll admit it. I want an Apple. ;)

I've been a PC user since being introduced to computers way back when.

My question now is, what specs should I be looking at?

First off, I'm set on buying a laptop. That leaves the MacBook and the Pro.

In PC usage, I'm quite a heavy user. Usually I'll have an instant messenger client, iTunes, and the internet open eternally. On top of this, I have photoshop open at times as well.

My main question is whether 2 gigs of RAM will cover me on a 2.33ghz processor?

IMHO the republic of ireland is just slightly more western

True statement. ;) Edit: Latitude lines are key here.

:o Back to the OP's problem...

Would it show up in the Add/Remove programs, perhaps?

I'm feeling a bit pathetic right now that I'm the only one who referred to DaniWeb as a "she" ... but I meant it in the "captain and her ship" type of way.

;) I was just going to comment on that.

To me, Daniweb is a solely a place of learning. It is the only place I mod at, and I guess it just teaches ya stuff about people. Oh, and I can't even relate to how much technical knowledge I've learned just watching threads here.

Oh, and I think it's worth saying that when I found Daniweb early last year, it's what really pushed me into the nerd I am.

Christmas, although we celebrate it in the present-less state (well, except for a few).

I strongly feel, like Sharky said, that Christmas has become too corrupted by businesses.

As a pagan (Wiccan) I celebrate the Sabbat of Yule on December 21.

I still find that so cool/intersesting. :) (In a good way)

Yes indeed. On the top of the page, click 'Control Panel', and under 'Subscribed Threads,' it will list all the threads that have been responded to.

Oh, and nice avatar. :)

Since this looks like it's going to turn into a link dump anyway...

Thats crazy. :)

Here's an awesome one:

Hmm...I was gonna mention Narue...but that was already mentioned. :)

Another mod we have here, Nanosani, is also female, I believe.

Well I'm Chicagoan at heart. *Sneers at the New Yorker* :mrgreen:

But culture wise, all my great-grandparents were immigrants.

Irish, German, Russian, Polish, Ukranian, Czech, Norwegian...

Very true.

However, later in his life, he tried working on the unified field theory, which tried to incorporate all sciences (including quantum theory, from what I recall) into one theory.

EDIT:

Also, quantum theory was the basis for his "dice" comment.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein

Copenhagen Interpretation" section (1.3.2) above, reference was made to the disagreement regarding Einstein's actual position regarding the quantum theory. The famous quotation "God does not play dice" is often used to support the majority view that he disliked the theory due to its indeterminism.

Others make the case for a different view. They note that the 1926 "Dice" quotation occurred when the quantum theory was just in its first year of discovery and in the subsequent 30 years of his life, one would be hard pressed to find a similar comment from the man. Instead Einstein focused on the conceptually independent subject of 'incompleteness'.

I think I must add, I hate MessengerPlus from the security perspective.

With most downloads, 'addons' are checked for installation (with a checkbox to opt out).

However, one of the 'addons' is LOP, a difficult infection to remove that's been known to cause some harm to computers.

When I visited Italy, I began with an overnight train ride from France into Italy. I must say, the trainride itself was quiite nice.

When in the country itself, I only saw Rome. As sad as I am to say it, it felt dirty all over the place, with graffiti rampart.

Nevertheless, I thought it was worth seeing Vatican City and other historical buildings in Rome.

Wow!

I couldn't find it on the linked site, so I did a google search.

I still can't believe it..:)

I don't know if you knew this, but quantum computers are already being made and sold. It is extremely unreliable, extremely expensive ($100.000)

Err.....are ya sure about that? ;)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_computer

Very very very....addictive. :)

It looks like a great post, except for one thing.

The soul is not a material thing. Irregardless of how the body is put together, but if no soul is present, then there is no life.

That is an imagenary number. I think it is represented by the letter 'i'

Exactly. Err....well, its an italicized .

[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/math/0/e/c/0ec6fcb6da4903ce355359d219ef3f5c.png[/img]

Therefore, i equals the square root of -1.

:)

My computer desn't have the specs to run Vista (it's a mini laptop).:sad:

Read my post here however:
http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforum...ad60569-2.html

Yes, do read it.

But the short answer is, it's a violation of Vista's terms of service (ToS).

Hmm, I don't think it does, sadly. ;)

Sorry, there’s no version of ClamXav for 0S 9 and, as far as I know, there’s no version of Clam AntiVirus for OS 9.

C'mon!

1) I can't even understand what you're trying to say. Our rules do not permit shorthand speech.

2) You're trying to find information on C#....yet you posted in Tech Talk.

3) We don't do homework for you. That's basic.

I don't use a cellphone

Whaaaaat? :eek:

Oh, and let's try that new search code command:

[search]Free ringtones[/search]

Sorry we couldn't help.

But I'm happy ya got it all figured out. :)

Re-Read your thread, and click on the Green Underlined text

:mrgreen:

Can you tell me PLEASE where can i get free ringtones?Thank you in advance! Please be kind to me!

My apologies, I don't use ringtones too often. Sorry. ;)

Haha I love it Dave.

:)

And didn't you say you were gifting me a copy of Vista? Time to own up to your promise ;)

Yeaaa.....we all know about that large bonus you got. :mrgreen:

I wish DMR could still do that.

:?: Do What?

http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread62631-2.html

DMR can't 'alter' polls anymore.

And I know that you're probably against him doing it, but it's more of a tradition for polls in the Geek's Lounge as the 'no opinion' answer. ;)

I prefer large numbers of wombats.

:)

I wished DMR could still do that.

Hi Starbelly,

Have you seen this thread?

http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread55459.html

If that doesn't work, try this.

Open Start>Run.

Type in appwiz.cpl What comes up?

Hello Matt,

I don't know what happened to my computer, but I rearranged my room and moved my computer, and all of a sudden I can't access certain pages.

Are you on a wired or wireless connection?

It sounds like your internet connection has become very slowed.

Well said, ShadowputerDude. :)

Well said blud. :)

Ha! :mrgreen:

I've gone through too many iPods. Now I'm at the point where I don't buy new ones.
