Now, on the product page, the most recent review ...

I am currently a Windows user on my primary laptop but am getting a Acer Aspire One Netbook with a 160 GB HDD Hardrive and the Intel Atom 1.6 Ghz Processor that uses the Windows XP OS, and am intrigued by Linux because it is free and open source, but it seems like there is a lot to understand such as the partitioning and knowing code (of which i ...

I recently created partitions to dual boot vista and fedora. I screwed up when installing fedora and i installed it in the largest space on the hard drive. Having deleted all partitions, I was about to try it again but am unable to reclaim the space. When trying to format the ''free space'' as vista calls it, i get a 0x8004240f error code. ...

Plus, what about strategies like using THREE $50 1 GB SLI cards instead of one $150 (or more) Quadro or FireGL?
There are many ...
