The raccoon stole it when he stole your floor mat!

Careful, those can be mean critters. There was a news story a couple days ago of an old women being jumped by a gang of raccoons when she went outside to shoo them away.

The computer was a 486 processor with 256 MB of RAM. XP installed and ran fine. Disk activity was not excessive. I installed XP as an experiment, eventually I loaded Win2k on it that ran a teeny...

I've run XP on less than 256 MB of RAM. Having more than 1 GB of RAM is NOT essential. Where have you seen 2 GB as a recommended minimum for XP?

System restore is mostly for correcting hardware configuration errors, like if you install a new piece of hardware and the computer refuses to boot.

There's a lot of repetitive advice in this...

I still can't believe that plane landed in one piece. No-power water landings are basically impossible to pull off - the plane normally clips the water with a wing and cartwheels, and everyone dies.

For anything but a turntable, I can't see how the object supporting the equipment makes one iota of difference. Can anybody explain this in at least pseudo-scientific terms?

What really got me was watching the A pillar just fold up and disappear.... yikes!

heh, nice file name :)

Aww man, I loved that video. Why'd you have to go and ruin it for me?

A lot of people bring this up, but judging from the reflectivity of the ramp before and after they throw the buckets of water on it, I think the ramp was pre-wetted and the buckets were simply a...

It doesn't take too much to make them sing. But if you want them to roar, drive them with 400-500 Watts per channel. (Recommended is like 50-500 WPC. Keep in mind they are a 4-ohm speaker, not 8...

Depends on how hard your amp was working to produce that "arbitrary" level. The indicated "-15 dB" really doesn't mean anything.

For instance, with certain low-impedance speakers, my amp clips...

Let's get a little more serious here. What system are you using to listen to movies (how many speakers and what arrangement)? Do you use the same system to listen to music, or do you reduce the...

Peabody, I feel your pain. See if you can find some cheap thick rugs, and maybe some wall hangings.... that is if your SO lets you redecorate a bit. If you want to get more serious, there are a lot...

tweeter looks like an SL2000 to me.

Without CL I wouldn't have my stereo, or my road bike. It's been good to me.

That's not natural behavior for a squirrel! Noosh was kind of joking, but they can be highly aggressive.

Personally, I would give animal control a call - it's the same as any other wild animal...

Good speakers for a fair price - what I paid for mine a couple of years ago.

One does not own SDAs.... They own you!

+1 for upgrading your amp. At this point it sounds (oooh, pun) like it's the weak link in your system. Also.... don't piss your wife off - no good will...

Interesting... don't imagine that's a whole lot of fun to drive in the rain... or when it's buggy out!

Doors are lacking interior panels - very much a concept car then.

A miata is on my very...

Hey soft,

The guts of these things normally aren't that complicated. It might be worth unscrewing the large driver and pulling it out a little bit (mind the wires that are attached to it) just to...

A bit of a contrary experience. Last time my civic needed new tires I took it down to Costco and grabbed some entry level michelins for about $50/tire. The balancing job they did is the most...

Congrats man. Before you know it you'll be hunting for a pair of SDAs. :)

The tweeter upgrade is highly recommended - the SL2000s are a little harsh to my ears.

As others have said it's hard...

maybe distortion purposefully added to the sound track? I know a lot of radio ads do that to make the voices more attention-grabbing, but it's annoying as you-know-what.
