Hey Alison, what is ECOS?

hmmm... while I pretty much have got the whole silkscreening technique down-pat (I mean how many people out there have university-level silkscreen training? I didn't think so)... I would still LOVE to get over to that DIY silk-screening thing just so I can see how they do it DIY style. I'm unfortunately trained in the hundreds-of-thousands-of-dollars-worth-of-equipment style of silkscreening. I'm DYING to figure out how you do it in your own home for (as a little birdie told me) CHEEP-CHEEP!!!

    Hey Pete

    For the Bios, hold delete once the computer starts up, and the temps will be in "hardware monitoring"
    For the floppy, there is an individual interface cable that only plugs into the floppy and certain slot on the motherboard, make sure it goes in there. Assuming you're doing that, flipping the ribbon when you insert it (btw, the red wire is for "Pin #1" so try to keep them aligned in the same way, you should be able to find pin #1 on the mobo, but it'll be trial and error for the drive)
    For the Internet and Sound, you need to install the drivers on the ASUS cd (in fact I think you'll need to intall all the drivers on the cd, including the "4 in 1" driver package) that should take care of that.

    Here's the proggy: http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php

Hey Alison, I think it's up to you to take every opportunity that you see in order to rise to power. People like Sharma and Hudema sound like obstacles.

    so... I get to read the SU web board as part of my work hours... this seems strange.

    But... I guess Roman Kotovych was doing some research on ECOS... talking with Anand Sharma and Mike Hudema (because they're obviously the experts on ECOS) and asked them what ECOS was doing. His statement is thus: "I asked Anand and Mike what ECOS was up to, and they both said 'They're doing a lot, Roman.'" well, what were you expecting? I don't think i've seen Anand down here ever... even before I was working for ECOS... and Mike rarely, if ever, stops by... so what would they really know? Please, if ever any of you end up with untold power to decide the fate of things that other people depend upon and/or enjoy, consult with those who know (really know) what's going on before you make any kind of decision. Mind you, at least an interest is being generated.... it can only lead to more accurate information being made known later... much more in-depth than "they're doing a lot," wow.

    Hurray, my new computer works! kinda...

    I still can't get the internet or sound working on it, nor does it like my floppy drive from my old computer.

    Leo, what key(s) did you hit to access the bios setup on my computer? I can't seem to find it on my computer now, though I didn't have much time to look into it. Also, what was the name of that program you were talking about that can control temp, fan speed, etc?

    Also, for those of you who went to Napoleon Dynamite last night, Uncle Rico, a.k.a. Jon Gries has quite the storied career. One popular reference may be the driver of the illegal aliens (haha, so clever) in Men in Black. I, however, remember him in The Pretender (hey, it was a good show... sure, it was a thinly veiled ripoff of the Fugitive, but it had its moments!), as Broots, nervous computer/science/technology/nerd guy.

    Oh, and Ed, I'd like to help you out with the dream wings correlation dealie, but I dream about chicken wings all the time...

    Oh, and for Jere, Kip hasn't been in anything else. In fact the only previous work mentioned in IMDB for Aaron Ruell is as a still photographer.
