I read download.com's review of Netscape 8.0 here and found that NS8 is mostly bloatware built around the FireFox engine. Yes, compelling for IE users but not at all for FireFox lovers. And 12MB download for a browser? What a waste of bandwidth!

Simply cutting down prices will not automatically reduce piracy. If I can get a software for free, why would I pay even one rupee for it? Of course, I will get peace-of-mind, support, blah, blah but how many times have you really wanted to contact Microsoft for support on Windows? And how guilty...

Hey is there one the other way round? I mean, use a PCI-e card in an AGP mobo? That would mean I can buy a PCI-e card and still retain my K8N-E mobo for my next upgrade. :) :) I dont know many (make that any) user who has a PCI-e mobo and an AGP card. Most new mobo buyers will also buy a PCI-e...

Site went directly to my Bookmarks folder. I will probably not search the web every other day for my wallpapers, at least for the next few weeks. Thanks, Albert.

Hopeless policy is the only description for this utter nonsense. Who cares about the monthly rental? Let them charge Rs.500 p.m. and allow unlimited downloads. That would make more sense. At 2 bucks per MB, one will be running up bills of 1000-1500 just browsing. Add downloads to that and God...

Hey, nikhil, wonderful review there. Repped you for that. Ha, ha, that is a good one. This seems to happen everywhere. Oneupmanship, I guess. Keep up the good work and if you have more hardware that you can review, post those too!

@funky, I am not sure whether this is a problem specific to the GF series. I have an ATI Fury/Rage3D Pro on my office system and whenever I am browsing thru web pages that have a lot of flash based animations, the scrolling is not smooth at all. Actually, it looks like it is a problem with the...

Yeah, I know exactly what they want to say. But it is the way they said it that I found funny. :)

Found this on the Zebronics site: Is this supposed to be their idea of a joke? Or do they think this can be an USP for them? Check it out at the bottom of the page

As I had mentioned earlier, the Antec SLK 3700 is probably best bang for the buck, since you get a bundled 350W PSU along with it. If you ask me, a 350W is fairly sufficient for your rig, unless you are thinking of SLI at any time in the future. I have the same case and it is quite good...

Can I run a single SATA drive on RAID? Doesn't it require at least two separate drives? The onboard RAID manager says RAID is not possible, since there is only one drive but there is another application called SAM (Sil Array Manager) which at least allows me to define something called a RAID...

GameSpot has a new preview of the new Prey, as they are calling it. This is what we have all been waiting for. Blow away anything and everything you see. And let not a blade of puny grass stop your rocket from doing the damage it was meant to do. Actually, the quote above was from a preview...

Must be ATI specific, since I am seeing no banding whatsoever. The screenies I posted speak for themselves. I can post more screenies taken in different areas, if anybody wants, just to show the absence of this "banding". Any nVidia guys around here getting banding in this game with SM 1.1? How...

I downloaded and ran nTune 2.05.09.08 to check up on my system performance. In the "Troubleshoot system performance" option, nTune recommends the following: -------------------------------------------------------- Info and recommendation: Current IDE channel mode primary master channel...

Sorry Sunny, I did not even know that the 5350 and 5750 come in PCI-E flavour. In any case, who is going to buy them now? Thanks for upgrading my infobase. So, chic_magnet, now you know which cards NOT to buy.

If you are buying an SLI motherboard, obviously you have to go for a PCI-E card. For SLI to work at all, both the card must be the exact same thing, i.e., same chipset, same manufacturer, same video BIOS, etc. In other words, whatever you buy, buy two of them. Otherwise, no SLI. Any nVidia...

@saumil, if you are talking about the image in the Beyond3D forums, yes that seems to have heavy banding. I am not seeing anything like that here. Maybe that appeared since the game was still in development at that time. Must have improved it before final release.

I have an Antec SLK3700 AMB and it is much more roomier than the Super LanBoy. And it has got an Antec SmartPower 380W included in the case for 5750/-. This PSU is quite enough for whatever you are planning to run, unless you want to do SLI or some serious overclocking. Suggest you change the...

Right, I am now running the game on SM 1.1 and the FPS jumped from 15-20 to 25-30, without AA. No banding of any kind seems to be visible. Take a look at the two images below. The first one is SM 1.1 and the second one is SM 3.0 with no AA/AF in either case. The FPS difference is obvious. I have...
