Little long but a very interesting read. Not exactly my take but wow some people are really getting deep into this.

Union Jack - Water Drums
This is a downtempo song that is really atmospheric and really good, but use the bathroom before listening. :-)

radeon 9800
3.0 pentium
120 gig raid hd setup
I was thinking it would be best to go for the 9800 and raid setup and just go ahead and get a 2.8 instead of the 3.0 does that seem about right to everyone else. I have never done a raid setup before so would I was just wondering if I would be better off with that or the 3.0? Also how hard is it to setup I'm just planning to get a mobo with raid 0 on board so I'm just assuming it wont be to hard.
Thanks

So, for no reason in particular, I've decided to post a whole plethora of songs from one of my favourite metal bands, Kamelot. These guys aren't all that original or particularly unique, but I'll be damned if they aren't the best goddamn power metal band in the universe. Oddly enough, they are an (mainly) american band... Strange because almost all of the other decent power/fantasy metal bands come from germany/scandinavia. I say mainly because the singer is none other than Norwegian singer Roy Khan, one of the greatest metal vocalists around. The smoothest voice in any case. Khan formerly sang for Conception with Guitarist Tore Ostby, who's now playing with another killer vocalist in Ark, which I have talked about at length here on the shack. Kamelot should be noted not only for its awesome vocalist, but its highly memorable melodies and driving bass... Very funky for a power metal band. :) Not only can they write great metal tracks, but Khan's voice is perfectly suited for gorgeous ballads as well, of which I've included two (Temples of Gold and The Sailorman's Hymn). Really great songs.
Anyways, enough talk. Here are the tunes:
Kamelot - Silent Goddess | Album: The Fourth Legacy (Man.. the bass! the bass! \m/ \m/)

For all your evening Shackers the idea is simple. Open up MS Paint and (in 4 frames) show us your favorite movie. You can find the archive of over 30 that were done earlier today here:

I'm still taking submissions and we're still trying to figure out some of them (especially SAfuze's entry in the archive).

Ya prolly didnt realise that you responded to my post http://www.shacknews.com/ja.zz?id=7929085 and didnt catch my name or some such business. This would be a good reason to go "who the hell is this fool saying 'psst psst'?" Sorry to lash out at you, didnt get much sleep and i thought you where just being mean for no reason. And if you where then disregard the apology.
Peace. Shack on.

I love going to Super Target, because the one in my neighborhood is ALWAYS full of hot chicks. Today was no exception. Some cutie with thin white shorts...unf!
However, that wasn't the best part. I ran into these two cute girls (I think they were roommates or lesbians...either way SCHWING) and they were blocking the item I needed, and we had a nice conversational exchange, but something was off, I caught one of them checking out my package. WTF? I've never actually CAUGHT a girl doing that to me...nice! haha
So I go about my business, and check out, and leave the land of hoochie that is Super Target. As I get into my car to go home, I look down and notice that my fly is unzipped. :(

There's nothing more I want to do in my life than science, however, I've always had mild opportunities to travel and I do not want to give that up to stay in one place for a long time. I want to see new places and discover lands that i normally never would. How do I fuse this with my career?? :(

Just moved to NYC for my residency and need a new computer for my apt. The absolute budget is $2000. I was initially going to build my own P4 2.8C/865PE system but I saw some cheap systems at abspc.com.
I was wondering if the shack could check the configured system (in reply) and give the yay or nay on dropping the cash. I didn't include a monitor - I'll probably buy one separately on my own.
