    Reading REAMDE by Neal Stephenson. Really interesting but beware, it is very long :) The size of this book is going to turn some people off. The depth of this book might do in some more, but it is exactly these things that keep Neal Stephenson fans coming back and spending a lot of time getting...

    Insurance for expensive Laptops and Mobiles

    I have just ordered a new Macbook Pro 17" for development purposes. Since Macbooks are very expensive (Rs 1,35,000), I am worried of theft/lost/damage and want to get insurance for it. I have never taken out such an insurance so I dont have much idea about how to proceed and where to get one...

    does anyone know for sure that the MSI 6950 2GB Twin frozr III has a bios recovery switch like the one is a reference 6950 board? Apparently Frozr II didnt have one.. Also, I am very excited to use the 8800GT as a physx card.. atleast till I can get a decent price for it.. but would the card...

    Upgrade Advice? AMD X2 4400+ / Asus M2N-SLI / 8800GT to Core i7 / GTX 560 Ti

    I have been reading up on the 'slow CPU fast GPU' situation on the net as well as the Phenom II X4. It appears that a modern GPU will independently function well enough (not 100%) even if the CPU and the chipset architecture is slow so long as the CPU is not below the minimum req of the...

    Upgrade Advice? AMD X2 4400+ / Asus M2N-SLI / 8800GT to Core i7 / GTX 560 Ti

    The thing is I am hoping that I will get two step advantage. first by just unlocking, just like the sapphire one and second with further OC after the unlocked shaders and clocks. The bigger heatsink would definitely allow better OC then I can do with sapphire.. Does this sounds worth it? I am...
