Replacing case leds

Found an article in an Elektor Mag... Replacing your computer's case leds with their ultra-bright counter-parts can be hazardous to your mobo's health.

Humblest of apologies... it be hard to use movie quotes without actually hearing them, "I think not little puppy" originating from Cats & Dogs...

Anyways, as stated, views differ... my view : Drop it. If it not be good, ok.

Well,

Once again, views differ. Dunno, but I think that the hype over the release and anticipation of this game caused the developers to rush a couple of the aspects to finish it...

Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong, maybe the world ends tomorrow and it doesn't matter when it is to be released.

Bad advice? Bad ... advice?

As is with personal experience, I do believe that Half-Life 2 will be horribly unsatisfying. I scoped the internet for weeks prior to the release of Mission Impossible 2, trying to find premieres, early releases etc. And it sucked when I actually watched it.

Oi, Azgard mate... Being of the silent and shy type meself, you have to consider Newton's third... cause and effect. Cause : Not talking, effect : No response. So, rather than looking down on yourself for not being a Superguy under the ladies, just realise that you do not need them. Realise that you...

South-African War Game?

Recently there's been a lot of World War type games released.... Call of Duty, Brothers in Arms, even Medal of Honour (although a bit far back). How about creating a game about the Anglo-Boer war? I mean you can't get more South-African than that. You can have like boere riding on horses shooting wi...
