as for the web site, the current plan is to actually move it over to my servers after i get moved in at my brother's place sometime within the next few weeks. it'll live there for the summer, and then we'll move it back to 8m.com as the hunt approaches. for the 4 or 5 hits a month we're getting on it, i think i can handle the bandwidth usage on my connection :)
and goodness Tim--it was just my observation--it does not look exactly like the guy TO ME wether other people said there was speculation or not - I just thought the guy on the tv (even before they said he may be a body double) looked funny and not right.
and THANK YOU to everyone who took part (even in the little ways) to get COOLERCREW.COM :)
Anybody still need directions for tonight? If so, it might be best to email me at AllisonWondrland@yahoo.com and then I can just reply back to you.
And if you're not sure about going, remember this. Afterwards everyone is likely to be talking about how much fun it was and you're likely to wish you actually had gone. So why not just avoid that whole episode of regret and go!
I don't really know. I said people could come as early as 3 if they want to help set up. I was thinking of dinner around 5. But I'm guessing a fair number of people may not come until later.
...Not dead, just missing. Hope this finds you all well, cooler, and no worse for the wear. AW- Need your singles club website- A gentleman I work with would like it. He's a real brainiac, and is interested. Please e-mail it to me.. I never know when I'll have the time to play on the forum lately. katie@gottafish.org Thanks!!!
first question about your burner, is it really capable of burning at 48x? the first number is the read speed off of it, the second is the burn speed, and the third is the burn speed to a cd-rw disc. bear in mind also that with a burner, you won't see the full burn speed unless you're burning the whole disc. reading and writing data to the center of the disc, which is where they always start, is always slower because of how the drives spin cd's. the speed of the machine probably has little, if anything, to do with it.
if the software supports the drive, it ought to at least be able to take advantage of the full write speed the drive supports. i suppose it is possible the processor speed is limiting the drive burn speeds. i don't know if they exist for win95/98/me or not, but you could try to find something that measures cpu utilisation while you're burning, and that'd tell you if it was the processor or something else.
I don't even have windows 2000 on my computer- I think that is a nice thing that someone didn't need anylonger to pass it along. Does it come with the pass code to run it? you can probly get one from Ares ;) and Ian, I thought you were a computer wiz too to be asking the question of grabbing it or not. :)

Cooler!
Great job guys.
Happy Birthday Sam
Take the day off, I'll cover your shift.
thanks, ralph. :)

ARES! ;)
thank you, baby.
Shouldn't you really be saying Thank You Deer?
Well, its either War or M*A*S*H on tv today
M*A*S*H episode is "the pigeon flies at midnight" ;)
(They are playing a virtual Clue game ??)
No no no, it's war or basketball on tv. Heck with MASH
That was our choice last night ---basketball or war!

now if we can get this in all the parks, i'll be set for next year's hunt :)
too funny- I got this feedback today from someone...
Praise : TRULY EXCELLENT EBAYER!! KNOWS WHAT SHE WANTS AND NOT AFRAID TO ASK :)
hahahahahahaha
and what, pray tell, did you ask for?
Happy B-DAY ares!: > )
hehe me2
Funny they pick MEARS 1st! I love it. ; > )
Happy birthday ares
Happy (late) b-day Ares!

What time are folks gathering, Allison?
I don't really know. I said people could come as early as 3 if they want to help set up. I was thinking of dinner around 5. But I'm guessing a fair number of people may not come until later.
I know we won't make it at 3. 5 is more doable...give or take a bit. Might be closer to 5:30.
we should be there around 6:00 or so, and only one kid :)
We are just about ready to head out. See yaz all sooner!
Headin' out ourselves. C-ya out there.

Mornin' Sam
mornin' ralph.
Someone left a Windows 2000 Professional CD in a cache. Is it something I should grab? What is included on that?
It's just Windows 2000 professional. Which is an NT based version of Windows ME (Is that correct, ares?).
Main page:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/professional/
Overview:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/professional/evaluation/business/overview/default.asp
I'd grab it, but I actually have a use for it.
Mornin' Sam!
Ares, my computer wizard friend, why would my 48X cd burner only burn at 8x - 10x?
Is it because it's on a pretty slow machine (475MHZ)?
you're more or less correct about win2k, jt.
first question about your burner, is it really capable of burning at 48x? the first number is the read speed off of it, the second is the burn speed, and the third is the burn speed to a cd-rw disc. bear in mind also that with a burner, you won't see the full burn speed unless you're burning the whole disc. reading and writing data to the center of the disc, which is where they always start, is always slower because of how the drives spin cd's. the speed of the machine probably has little, if anything, to do with it.
Here's the drive:
http://www.samsung.com/Products/CDDVD_Writer/COMBOHalf_Height/CDDVD_Writer_COMBOHalf_Height_SM_348B_sp.htm
It says it's capable of 48x.
I didn't expect a full 48x but I expected more than I'm getting.
Could I be limited by the software?
I'm using Roxio.. Easy CD Creator basic (I think is what it's called), that came with the drive.
I'm thinking the "Basic" might be limited and to burn faster with their software, I would need to upgrade?
if the software supports the drive, it ought to at least be able to take advantage of the full write speed the drive supports. i suppose it is possible the processor speed is limiting the drive burn speeds. i don't know if they exist for win95/98/me or not, but you could try to find something that measures cpu utilisation while you're burning, and that'd tell you if it was the processor or something else.
joe!
sorry if this is overly obvious, but are your blank CD's 48x ?
I don't even have windows 2000 on my computer- I think that is a nice thing that someone didn't need anylonger to pass it along. Does it come with the pass code to run it? you can probly get one from Ares ;)
and Ian, I thought you were a computer wiz too to be asking the question of grabbing it or not. :)
you can probly get one from Ares ;)
they're out there on the 'net. all you have to do is search for them.
Well, I have XP and ME at home, and Kris has 98SE so I don't think I need it. It says it is a legal CD.

Actually, good question.
They're either 40x or 48x, I can't recall which.
funny, I was thinking 40DD ;)
If it's bigger than my head, I want no part of it.
:-)
:::bangs head on wall::::
Hi Bomber
which head are you talking about?
the big one or the little one?
