  1. The Line That Will Change Your Life Forever™
  2. Excuses are excuses, it's still half assed.
  3. No you cannot!
  4. Discuss.
  5. I've had good experiences with HPs I'm guessing what you do on the computer isn't very graphic intensive. Quad Cores will be more than enough. If you're getting Vista 64 might as well pony up for the extra Ram (I would say 4 gigs). The more Ram you have the more virtual memory the computer has to work with and multitask. HP monitors, I don't know but I'm guessing they're rebranded monitors from Samsung or something. Should be fine. As far as printers go, I would look into what Epson and Canon offer. They are by far the best IMHO. I haven't had any issues with my HP all-in-one, but it can't compare to the Canon printer I also have when it comes to printing features and quality of the prints..
  6. I know, thanks for noticing.
  7. First of all, it's `57 Plymouth Belvedere. Secondly, when was the last time you saw one? It's not just about the car, but the history and the people involved. Thousands of people gathered from literally around the world to see it unearthed. No one expected it to come out looking like it did when it was sealed away. It's a relic of a time long past. It should and hopefully will be preserved.
  8. You're missing the point entirely. It will never go down the road because that's not the point. The car is being stabilized to keep it from deteriorating further, not being restored. The car is priceless because it is the only one of it's kind in the world that was buried ceremonially and dug up ceremonially.
  9. Came across this set of photos today. Here is Miss Belvedere at Ultra-One in Hackettstown, NJ on June 6, 2008. Note partial exterior cleanup of fender, part of the door, and half of the upper and lower grille sections. Side view of the car. A closeup of the cleaned up passenger fender and tire. The fender seems to have survived fairly well. The chrome on the vent window frame looks great, with only one or two pits in the metal. The gas tank on the left looks like it survived and could probably be reused if the car was restored. The leaf springs, as seen on the right, have brittled and snapped. This is true for both sides. The southern parts car that was acquired by Ultra One and will be used to 'stabilize' Miss Belvedere. Plans are to use this car's frame and some of its sheet metal.

  10. Well, it depends....do yu plan to use this in a car? Do you plan to rebuild it and resell it? Would it sell or more than the landscaping job would cost? IF yes to any of those I would seriously consider it.
  11. No worries, it happens.
  12. Everyone to should have the right to be happy (or suffer) together.
  13. It cracks me up.
  14. Best vehicle for the unemployed or soon to be unemployed is the one they have now (in most cases).
  15. They don't suck just because it was their pre-square interiors. I would love to find one of those.
  16. I didn't hear about the wood grain, how much did that one go for?
  17. Not a problem at all. It would be nice to get the CD Changer to work but it's not the end of the world if it doesn't...my main goal was to get the seats...everything else was extra.
  18. This might be helpful.... Although I've never setup an HDTV to my computer (don't have an HDTV....YET!) so I could be off.
  19. *unlocks and locks the doors from the living room*
  20. Deleted the double post, just so you know.
  21. If your video card has an HDTV / S-Video Out port than yes.
  22. Look at the bright side, at least it's a small car so reaching over isn't impossible to do.
  23. Those work well. Trust me. I don't like crappy monitors either. Those are what you call good deals on great products. Also, if it hurts your eyes you can turn down the brightness and/or contrast In the meantime, you could also try turning the resolution up on your monitor and try the following: Settings> Advanced > DPI setting (this enlarges text and icons) Display Properties > Appearance > Advanced (here you can change individual font sizes, colors, and styles)
