The bare minimum is like a P233 and 64 megs of RAM...and it will be struggling if that is all you have. It really needs 128 megs of RAM or better, a hot video card, and it should be a processor with MMX support (with 3-D Now too is even better...as in AMD K-6/2 and up). I am running an AMD K6-2/400 with 384 megs of RAM and an Nvidia TNT video card with 16 megs of video RAM (wish I had better video even).

It is a hard drive selector that allows you to run three hard drives off the same IDE connector and switch back and forth between to boot from whatever OS you have installed on the drive you select...no disk partitioning required. I am not sure if you can run all three at once and flip back and forth on the fly though. Speaking of flying...RAM is dirt cheap right now. You could pop in a couple more 128MB modules for under $20 each right now (unless you have DDR DRAM...in which case it is about twice that much...still cheap though).

There is a series of 7 books by a woman named Janet Evanovich. They chronicle the life of a woman named Stephanie Plum as she goes from bad job, to no job, to a job as a bounty hunter. It is absolutely the funniest set of books I have ever read. I literally caught myself laughing out loud-so loud sometimes that I would get reprimanded at work!! They are fabulous. The first one is called "One for the Money" and they go on from there. Read them, I strongly recommend it! Linz Yahoo!

I already have a bunch of Garbage skins and a so-so poe skin but it's not as good as it could be (although I know nothing about making them so I don't really have room to complain all that much). Please don't bother to read the following if you're short on time or don't want to know my blunt opinion of some ppl: I saw Poe for the 1st time at the Austin show, it was absolutely wonderful except people in the crowd kept pissing me off. Do you really have to get drunk to have a good time? It's one thing to have a 1 or 2 beers at a concert or get as drunk as you like at your house or where ever, but at Poe? Can't you just enjoy the fact that you're seeing Poe sing her heart out right before your very eyes? And for whoever it was being constantly obnoxious and asking the bass player (Ziggy?) for a pick WHILE he was playing a song: that was really rude besides the fact that he wasn't playing with a pick in the first place. Playing an instrument does require some concentration (isn't that a totally new and innovative concept?!:)) Maybe that explains why his bass was so beat up from bashing people like you and some other chick trying to grab him after he told her a bunch of times (while he was in the middle of a song) not to in the face with it. I know most of the people being stupid around me were psychos but I'm not going to let some of you continue think you're better than everyone else at concerts because you're an AP. Sorry if I offended anyone, actually I'm not but this isn't really going to all APs, just a small group that had been around me at the show and were no doubt smashing me into the stage because all their friends who had come late or just decided they were yet again better than everyone else wanted to be at the front instead getting there early like logic would tell you but who uses logic anymore. It's also really rude to get pulled up on stage (which some of you definetly deserved and I'm very happy for you and I hope more people get the opportunity) and pull your yuppie friends on stage with you w/o even asking, I have NEVER seen anyone do that like they own the place at any concert or show. Poe's being nice when she does that but you shouldn't abuse the priviledge. So to sum it all up if that hadn't been one of the best performances I've ever seen I wouldn't be inclined to go back but Poe was even better than I thought she would be (and she did do Not a Virgin!) so I'll endure the crowd or anything else another year to see her again. And btw I did see a few APs around me just laying back and enjoying the show without being remotely rude or out of line, some of you should take the hint. If this has angered any of you please email me privately I'm open to hear anyone's opinion be it a reasonable one or a lame ass excuse for your behavior. Thanks in advance.

Poe was delivered to my doorstep this morning. There's a little pic of her on the cover of the Calendar section and an article. :) bn http://www.calendarlive.com/top/1,1419,L-LATimes-Music-X!ArticleDetail-47560,00.html Thursday, November 29, 2001 POP MUSIC Memories That Matter Poe returns with a second albuman intensely personal effortand a new perspective on music. By STEVE BALTIN, Special to The Times If sudden fame were all it was cracked up to be, VH-1's "Behind the Music" series would have long ago been canceled. Just ask Poe. The singer-songwriter's 1995 debut album was slowly developing a following when one of its songs caught on. Soon she was living on the road, courting film offers and hanging with millionaires and rock stars. While it sounds like a dream come true, Poe strikes a note of caution. "Everyone may or may not find their moment in the light, but as quickly as that moment comes, it disappears," says the L.A.-based artist, who headlines the Roxy tonight. That debut, "Hello," came out on the heels of Alanis Morissette's "You Oughta Know" phenomenon, and its payoff track was Poe's own angry-chick manifesto, "Angry Johnny." The song's refrain, "I wanna blow you away" made Poe a staple at modern-rock stations across the country and helped the album sell more than 600,000 copies. Just as quickly as she surfaced, though, Poe, whose real name is Annie Danielewski, vanished from the pop landscape for more than three years. She spent most of that time working on her next album, "Haunted," which came out on Atlantic Records last November. Because of the intensely personal nature of "Haunted," a concept album detailing the complexities of her relationship with her late father, Tad Z. Danielewski, a filmmaker who strove for perfection in himself and in his children, Poe found herself working almost obsessively on the album. "During the whole time of making this album I didn't have a date," she recalls. "I didn't go out to dinner once with anyone. I just sat in the studio and had this dialogue with my dad and with myself really." She is speaking literally when she says "dialogue." Poe incorporated samples of her father's voice from some tapes she discovered in the last few years. The process allowed her to achieve closure in "If You Were Here," a poignant ballad in which Poe says goodbye to her father, who died in 1993. The song features a sample of a young girl saying, "It's OK, you can go now." It was an emotionally draining experience, but when she finally did lay the track to rest, she felt free. "It was really crazy because, he, this ghost of my father, was gone," she says. "Those issues had been sort of put to rest. And what was left was really a memory." The album was a true family affairPoe was inspired during its making by her brother Mark Z. Danielewski's acclaimed debut novel, "House of Leaves." Many reviewers called the album a sort of soundtrack for the book, but Poe disagrees, saying that the book and the record held a "similar sensibility based on a shared history, but they are independent works." In spite of its serious subject matter, "Haunted" offers plenty of escapist moments, including the psychedelic rock-meets-techno hook of "Wild," the in-your-face aggression of "Control" and "Not a Virgin" and the mid-tempo beat of the title track. But the long delay between albums, as well as the complexity of the current record, have contributed to its modest sales figureabout 250,000. Still, it came as a big surprise to many when Atlantic Records recently released her. Accordingly Poe, 33, has a new appreciation for being on the road, which almost didn't happen. "There was definitely a moment with this record when I didn't think I was going to be able to raise the money to go on tour," she says. "And those moments are frightening to me because the final step to me with this album was absolutely to see it come to life live. It feels so good to be back out. It's been so long. I'm really kind of enjoying every minute of being on the road." Poe has also gained a new perspective on what she hopes to achieve with her career. "My agenda is not rock stardomit's making great albums that for personal reasons I can look back at and be proud of what I've created. "You can have a year or six months of extraordinary fame, but what does that give you? I can pick up 'Haunted' for the rest of my life and find pieces of myself there. That's priceless." Poe, with Think of England, today at the Roxy, 9009 W. Sunset Blvd., West Hollywood, 8 p.m. $12.50.

It is a step up from the Athlon Thunderbird series. They have a few architectural advantages and, I think, a few additions to the instruction set...but basically they are a Thunderbird tweaked for some additional speed in actually running programs. AMD has sort of given up on the idea of cpu clock speed being a reliable indication of realtime performance. It used to be that the system bus clock speed and the cpu core speed were all you needed to get a good idea of capabilities where actually running programs was concerned...this is not so anymore. For one thing, the type of RAM you are using is now a strong indicator. Programs run in RAM, so the fact that DDR is twice as fast as conventional RAM makes a big difference. Then there is RAMBus, which is used by Intel machines. RAMBus is deceptive, since it doesn't always run at the speed indicated by the maximum figures. (800mhtz). It is sort of a quadruple version of DDR that will default, under various circumstances, all the way back to the single data rate it is based on (slower than DDR, which AMD uses)...whereas DDR always runs at the indicated maximum. One of the default conditions occurs if you have more than one RAMBus module...it runs at the max untill it has to access the second or third module. There is also a latency issue with RAMBus which DDR does not have to deal with. Something similar is going on with the Pentium 4 front side bus of 400mhtz (compared to the Athlon's 200 or 266 mhtz). Athlon gets their fast FSB by using DDR on the old 100 or 133 mhtz bus (DDR= Double Data Rate...it performs an operation on the falling edge of the clock cycle as well as the traditional rising edge, creating an actual bus speed that is twice as fast as a rising edge only system clock)...and the AMDs always run at that bus speed. The P4 bus is derived in a fashion similar to the RAMBus...by a sort of quad version of DDR which uses all four aspects of the single clock cycle to perform operations. It appears to be based on the single data rate 100 mhtz bus, and will default all the way back to that single data rate under some conditions. The result is that the P4 is capable of incredible bursts of speed that will blow off an Athlon big time...but it only will do that some of the time. Meanwhile, the Athlon will roar along at its own amazing speed consistently and without the P4s fluctuations and latency. So, the 1.4 gigahertz Athlon with DDR will outperform a P4 1.7 ghtz with RAMBus when it comes to actually running programs. In fact the P4 is now widely available with the old single rate PC 133 SDRAM, which isn't nearly as fast as RAMBus or DDR, but it is consistent. These are no match for a DDR equipped Athlon (which can also be had with PC 133). Look for DDR P4s and maybe even P3s at some point. Anyway, the Athlon 1800+ is not a 1.8 ghtz processor...the actual core speed is a little over 1.5 ghtz...but it will run programs as fast (or faster even) as if it were a 1.8 gig by the old measurements. Meanwhile, the Pentium4 2ghtz is now out (with RAMBus). Which of these new machines is actually faster is a moot point since, at these ungodly speeds, who cares if one is a few millionths of a second quicker at something like opening RealPlayer...and to make it even more "old news", the even more ridiculously fast 64 bit cpus from both Intel and AMD are about to be released now. Talk about overkill! ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2001 14:39:39 -0500 From: Ed Hunsinger Subject: RE: NPR Good books >===== Original Message From Wes Overall ===== >All the books suggested so far have been VERY good, >but I just wanted to add: > > >"Ender's Game" & "Pastwatch: The Redemption of >Christopher Columbus" by Orsen Scott Card > I loved Ender's Game, and read it several times.. highly recommended by me as well :) > >"Fight Club" by Chuck Palahniuk > Also, check out Chuck's newest? book "Choke" Unless you are easily offended.

Fishkin Ent. is looking for a new deal for POE. He has mention that he would like the AP's to be a apart of this. What we need to is to make a brochure about us. I'm looking for a couple people to help out, especially good graphics people. Please let me know ASAP if you can help out. This could be HUGE for the AP's thanks - -Robby ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2001 22:41:43 EST From: JSens70632@aol.com Subject: Re: PR: Fishkin Ent. damn, i wish i was good with graphics! :( oh well.... ~*jessica*~ ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2001 23:36:35 EST From: Spidersrcute2@aol.com Subject: Bimbo's show Well, I'm not gonna lie about the songs, I forgot the order they went in. After standing in the rain for an hour (Miki and Rachel were there for 3, poor girls) we got to go in to the coolest night club I've ever been to. The color scheme was red and black, little tables set up around the perimiter of the dance floor with a single candle on each one, no other real lighting. It was just a really beautiful place. Poe said she loved it there too, thought it was a way cool place. Think of England were really awesome, I shook Libby's hand and told her how amazing she was and that I hoped she got signed really soon. During Beautiful Girl Miki and Rachel and some of the others were pulled up on stage, I didn't go up because I was with my friend who's 6 months pregnant and I wasn't about to leave her out there alone. The crowd was really mellow, which was cool. My friend hadn't really listened to Poe until yesterday morning, and I had let her borrow my copy of Hello. She likes Trigger Happy Jack, Choking the Cherry and That Day, which were all played last night. Poe was her usual wonderfully energetic self, running through the audience and jumping around on the stage. It was so great. She looked really well rested and I was happy for that, I had been worried about it since people had said at some shows she looked a bit overworked. Favorite moment from last night? Had to be when Nate was talking to Rachel and Miki and saying he was happy they wore their jackets this time. It was just really touching to see how much the band cares about the fans. Anyways, I'd write more but I'm still a little off today. I drank a bit too much and had a nice little hangover this morning. Later everyone!! Hopefully none of us got sick from being out in the cold for too long last night.

I'm not saying he was horrible, or that every person you meet off here is scary [as you can read from other people's experiences], but we moved way too fast. That and he was very clingy. We lasted maybe 2 1/2 months, but it seemed like ages, just because he was ALWAYS there, and very paranoid. But I do have to thank him because I don't think I would have gotten with my current guy [who I've been with for almost 9 months, yay!] if scary-boy wouldn't have pushed me over the edge. But meeting friends through this evil box is always fun. I've only had maybe one not-so-great experience. That was because the guy, who I had been talking to for years, finally meets me and because he "didn't get anywhere" w/me that night, he stopped. Oh he started talking again, yes, but only after he found out I was an exotic dancer. Other than that I've flown coast to coost and back just to meet my friends. They're awesome. All in all I just have to say be careful. You already know that =) I had more advice to offer but uh...I guess if I remember I'll post. Or something. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 30 Nov 2001 00:39:13 EST From: LivTheMdns@aol.com Subject: Re: PR: Fishkin Ent. I'm not that good, but I can fake it long enough to get by.
