Nope, never had NY Pizza. Had pizza in Newark, NJ tho

What is the most you've ever spent on an automobile?

What is your favorite brand of printer?

[twilyth]

Samsung. I got a good deal on a color laser and I love it. Before that I always bought Canon though. But inkjets are just too prone to premature death and they really bend you over the kitchen sink on refills. A few months ago Newegg had a special on B&W samsung lasers - $50 with free shipping. Hot damn!

they suck a lot of juice though. Don't put them on a circuit that has a lot of other loads.

should I get the gf an xmas present or make a donation to a charity in her name?

[[XC] mysticmerlin]

should I get the gf an xmas present or make a donation to a charity in her name?

Depends, Do you want her to still be your GF after xmas?

What is your screen you use on your main rig?

[Martijn]

Depends, Do you want her to still be your GF after xmas?

What is your screen you use on your main rig?

A Samsung 245B 24" LCD and 3 NEC1550X 15" LCDs.


What is your all-time favourite keyboard?

[[XC] mysticmerlin]

zBoard that I have had for like 6 years now.

do you mind typing on a laptop keyboard?

[karl_eller]

I love laptop keyboards. I bought a Razor Lycosa because it was supposed to be very laptop-like, although I have been less than impressed with it so far.

What do you think is the max usable res for a 15.4" laptop LCD: 1440x900, 1680x1050, something else?

1920x1200. I use it myself and it's awesome.

Do you think trackpoints are useless?

[Ashraf]

A: Yep, I think so.

Q: Do you love your girlfriend more than your mother?

[rcofell]

Well, that's honestly a Non-Applicable question for me, so

At least this way I can comment on the trackpoint.
Useless? I think that's reserved for regular touchpads; using a trackpoint is way better, as after a bit of practice it can be just about as fast/accurate as a regular mouse. Touchpads on the other hand, bleh, so slow and the potentiality to drag/click things you don't want to.

How much do you think the team's production will be up over the winter season(Northern-Hemisphere) compared to during the summer?

[Indignity]

If it's similar to what has happened with F@H in the past(all that I'm familiar with until recently), most people will OC their CPUs just a little bit more so I will say "YES".

1 display or multiples & why?

[karl_eller]

Multiple displays FTW. Being able to display one full-screen window on one monitor, and another on the other monitor. Or having something full screen (eg game or movie) and still being able to do stuff on the other monitor.

One big GPU (eg HD4870 X2) or two smaller GPUs (eg two HD4870 1Gb's) in SLI/Crossfire?

Eller

[Mr_Slinky]

pff ...... pci cards ftw using my big ole 16 MB TNT2 Riva card as my 8600 is away at RMA.
But I did do SLI with 2 6600 GT's but that was before you could fold on them

Favorite drink around the holidays that is not eggnog? (this is a non-alcoholic drink for the holidays, you can list your fav. alcoholic drink too)

[inCore]

Coke. I will always love Coca Cola.

Where can I let out some steam about the incompetence of the largest Swiss phone company called Swisscom when I'm trying to get a Blackberry but they can't seem to understand the words coming out of my mouth?
