Thanks again for all the help guys.

Mother-in-law's friend installed XP on her system a few years ago with a new HD, copied the old HD to a folder on the new HD. Still with me? Turns out XP is not legit, system ran fine until recently when it just wouldn't boot. I tell her to pick-up legit copy XP home at OfficeX for $30.00, and new 160 HD from CC for $50.00. New HD with XP installed, old HD set as slave. Weird part: Can't find her most recent files on the old drive, just the files from the original backup years ago. The question is, will an illegit copy of XP eventually jack her system up until MS does some authentication? Can you ever recover those files and hundreds of family pix? Any ideas?

Since i've never played the game, i'm not sure exactly what it is about. Is it more of a gran turismo or a project gotham type game? Can you upgrade your cars at all? are the cars rated with some weird system like project gotham that doesn't really correspond to anything in real life?
This is important since my room mate has a 360 and i don't want to buy a ps3 for gran turismo until the price goes waaay down on both!

let's say i made a short movie clip and i wanted to turn it into a streaming flash file to put on a website, is there an easy way to do this or should i just upload it to google or youtube?
okay lets say i wanted my visitors to see an into page on their first visit to my website, and anytime after the first visit, they are just sent directly to the main page of the website.
also, the current main mage, index.php, has to keep its file name since i am using a complex php script. so i'm assuming i can have the www.domainname.com go to the intro page first with htaccess or something right?

I think its time to update my resume.

I am a recent BSc Comp Sci graduate with about 2 years of working experience under my belt (Mostly .net and c#). Im here in calgary looking for jobs nowadays. So far ive responded to various job ad's on Sites with different ammounts of luck. Im looking to expand my search so i went down to a career fair at the University of Calgary today and got some good leads.
Since i dont have much to do I was thinking i`d head downtown tommorow and go to various companies offices and hand in my resumes. Is that a good thing to do ? If so whats the ettiquite for it ? Should i walk into the office, find the HR department and go talk to them and give my resume ? Should i make an appointment beforehand ? or should i Just avoid it completely and submit resume's online.
It should be noted that one of my key points is my ability to talk with confidence to potential employers and give them a good idea of what I will be bringing into their organization, keeping that in mind is a face to face approach by walking into their offices good ?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Oh and if there's any guys in Calgary who can help a brotha out with respect to a job hunt please let me know :)

$249 on Nov 14th.
A lot of the engadget commenters seem to be down right angry that MS is getting into the PMP game. I don't really know what's up with that.
Me? I'm glad that a big company with big advertising is going to be competing with apple. I like the fact that the screen is a little larger and the face is really clean on the zune. I know a lot of people are going "omg brown!" but I think the zunes use of earthy colors is supposedly to directly contrast with the ipods black, white and pastels. Just as when people see those white headphones they automatically recognize it's an apple, people will start to recognize these earth tones as zune.
It'll be interesting to see how this plays out over the next several months.

Can someone point me toward websites with professional reviews of audio products like speakers and amps. Like, the sites of well-established magazines, or something. I'm already aware of C|Net, thank you, and I'll smack the first person who suggests AVS Forums.

What an intense show! So educational and facinating. I found some of the poses to be distasteful, but certainly a mind blowing experience.
Anyone else seen that? It made me speechless at points.

In the interest of fairness, today has been declared PS3 Day in my class, since we've had basically two Wii Days with no equal time given to "the other side."
You, dear Shack, can help by linking me to good PS3 media that's not prerendered. Streaming, preferably, so I can jump right to it in class.
Also, feel free to post in this thread why PS3 rules and why you're getting one. With two exceptions:
-OMG OMG BLURAY BLURAY - I get it. You want Bluray. You're an early adopter for the new format. No prob.
-I'M GONNA SELL 12 OF THEM ON EBAY ON CHRISTMAS EVE, I'M RICH BIYATCH! This is gaming class, *not* business class for a change.

- If different from above answer, what's your favorite moment in any game period (single player experiences, not multiplayer)?
