That would be untrue. I never received a PM from your SN.
Yeah, but I'll have to put in about $40 more in the long run to get either the g15 or g7, as the board I got came with a $20 mir
| Quote : a review on computer chairs would be nice...seriously |
I should be considered a chair expert.
I suffer from wide butt disease. Wide butt disease is common in middle age men (and women) that spend way too much time in a chair, and not enough time on the dance floor (or running laps or whatever).
I have a serious case of wide butt disease, which makes my opinion on chairs quite valuable. If a chair is durable for me, it will be durable for others as well.
And I suffer from pickiness disease. It can take me two hours to pick the right blue shirt to wear. Purchasing a new chair for me can require more time than a woman gestating a child.
I think I should be hired to evaluate chairs on a worldwide basis at the various chair manufacturing excellence centers. Many chairs are made in China, but they are actually designed in various Scandinavian countries, Italy, Austria, Germany, Brazil and of course Australia and scenic Hawaii.
I will be willing to spend an appropriate amount of time at each design center, evaluating current and future designs. If Tom's can advance me an allowance to cover my travel and living expenses, I am sure I can accomplish this task in, oh, let's say about 2 years? At which time I will file a full and meaningful expense report and my detailed evaluation of the best (and worst) chairs on the market.
One last question. Those tickets will be for first class travel and will include both my wife and my mistress?
I am also pretty picky about the chair I use. Its one of the few things I don't generally worry about cost for.
Sorry, I'm just bored and figured this thread was as good as any to post too.
Its either this, or my ongoing argument about the relative merits of making an internal USB floppy drive and whether floppies are dead. Its actually quite the funny thread, considering all the misconceptions of the OP (did you know that floppies connected using an IDE cable?)
Thats a nice keyboard you got! Almost got that myself.
I just picked up one of these Z MERC the only thing I do not like about it is where they located the delete key, otherwise the gaming pad is really nice.
I have large hands and the gamepad is laid out for a large hand, I really don't think it would be a good choice for a person with small hands, but thats just an assumption based on where the Jump key is located.
The software is really nice saved me a lot of configuring time, since my favorite games to play are preprogramed into the control panel of the keyboard, just select the game you're gonna play and the buttons are configured for you, nice.
It is taking some getting used to, but the more I use it the better I like it, anyway I give it a thumbs up.
pretty cool board there, I got small hands being young, so I don't think the gaming pad would help me, but it looks pretty cool.
Man, I think I got a doa board, now it doesn't even turn on at all, it's not even detected by my computer. I think I'm gonna go to best buy and exchange it there, and then buy a g15 or g7 (I'll just say I got it as a gift, which I did to some extent, Iranian new year is in two weeks), unless you guys think I'll be better off with another of the same board

Its the Aeron chair for me.
I'm not sure if mine has a brand. I just know that I spent a long time sitting in various chairs to find one that is micro suede, has padded armrests, and is curved to provide lumbar support.
Now my old chair, which coincidentally I passed off to my wife, was a ripped up, semi-broken pleather piece of crap. Hey, I offered her a new one.
When gaming for a while, all that stuff about supporting you lumbar and proper posture really becomes bloody appearance and necessary.
I have some random chair my dad got me from his office at Ford, it's quite comfortable though
Does it connect PS2 or USB?
This Zmerc is USB with special software and is a little finicky, mine came with a warning to make sure I kept it in the same USB port I originally installed the software on, or problems would occur if I changed it to another USB port.
This is really the first USB keyboard I've used on the PC, had one with my laptop, but don't remember it being USB port critical, but there is a lot more software to this K/B.
usb, I wish I had a ps2 adapter, but it didn't come with one
good and funny post.
i dont have the w.b.d. but i did go to my first l.a.n. party yesterday
and the chairs were alot better than mine
PS2 makes it basically plug and play unless theres additional software for the perks of the K/B, if you live close enough [preferably USA] I'll send you an adapter, if you want, I've got an extra one of them I'm not using?
If you are in the US so I could send it First Class Postal, PM me your mailing address and I'll send it to you, I've done this kind of thing for a lot of people here at the forums, if you need references let me know.
If you live outside the US it will cost me more to send it than I'm willing to loose, I hope you understand that.
Your 3D Mark 05 score is awesome

I have been through so many chairs, the last time I was searching for a new chair the wife and I went to our local Office Depot and basically spent the afternoon there.
I think the employees thought we were never going to leave, but all the chairs have a certain comfort when you first sit in them but what about long term, some get really uncomfortable.
Finally found exactly what I was looking for and have not the first time regretted getting it.
Pros: Fully adjustable period
Cons: The Headrest did drop a little too easy, but a Nylon Wire tie stopped that altogether.
Comments: I would make the same purchase again.
So heres my chair reccommendation.

SWEEEEET !!!
Is the 8800 640 or 320?
the 640 and so far it laugh,s at the video games i play
well except f.s.x. and oblivion. but it runs a low of around 30fps
in oblivion according to fraps.
that is with all sliders maxed except for self shadows.
and i cant use a.a. and hdr at the same time.
thought you could with the 8800cards?
still looks great though.
wow, i love how these topics evolve.
just. love. it.
Personally, I could never use something like that at home. I need to have full length padded armrests. I have some problems with my elbows from HS Hockey, and they get irritated very quickly without padding.

P2155:CL142572]This[/url] is close to what I have, though I paid around $160 for mine.
The chair I have at the office (the few days a month I am there) isn't bad for a cheap office chair. I actually have it tilted backwards so that my but is a little lower than my knees. Its more comfortable for me to lean forward and type or lean back and read that way.

You've got to enable a.a. in the Nvidia control panel, rather than in game.
ok cool ill give it a try.
if i can get nv control panel to open.
everytime i try it locks up 8O
yeah, anything is possible in these forums
Well, this particular one kinda started out hijacked, or at least asking for it...
I agree with prozac, I don't see how this thread was made to be hijacked, but I have seen many others that were
it was made to be hijacked because it used up all of its usefulness with the first post
well, i guess thats not exactly true, but you know what i mean. it didn't really start a discussion.
true...

I'm getting 60fps pretty consistently (dips to 45 once in awhile) in Oblivion according to Fraps...with an FX-55, 2GB's of XMS, and an X1900AIW card...
I'm not sure on my AA settings and so on, but Oblivion set my settings to Ultra High (highest) when it tested my card. My Catalyst settings are mostly set to default and "Quality" although I don't think I have AA specifically set, it's set to use app settings. How are you only getting 30FPS?

uhh, it's one thing to get off topic, but this seems kinda random beyond belief to me...kinda spam like...
why not? it just reflects my opinion and general level of interest in the current topic of discussion. it also credits me with another post.
Tell you what, since you are new here, I won't harass you about the whole extra post thing, but there are other people here that will get mad at you for things like that. Trust me on that, there are people here that get mad at me for posting a lot, though I don't spam, I'll just let you know people here don't tolerate those types of things. I'm not trying to be harsh on you, just explain the reality of it, take care
To be honest, you're post count per day is higher than mine ever was... It scares me...

I could definitely have used this in thw USB floppy thread...
I think it's actually the highest in forumz, I've checked yours, Jack, prozac, and even crashman and wusy's, but I believe I have the highest, kinda makes me wonder how much of my life I have spent here

Sorry for attempting some humor.
I guess that's why my wife always says I'm not funny.
Actually, I'd have to say you helped hijack it, with the very first post you kidna told him off, but there's nothing wrong with that.. xD
id have to say that i pulled a little middle-eastern maneuver there with my "evolve" post.
Tacos, isnt it ironic that Dave Uk has actually been her LONGER than you, but is still in that "i want mroe posts" stage...
and isnt it EVEN MORE ironic that ive been here since whenever and am still in that stage?
im gonna make a new s/n and post like 50 responses to become the new PPD(post per day) leader.
Had the questions he asked had any merit or at least make it worth ones while. But to test mouse pads, led lights.. man come on he should have known it was headed for wasteland

I would not recommend that as being your goal here, as it might lead to a ban
I know its a very dry sense of humor, but at least I enjoy it.
HE HE, I apparently did it again. Unintentionally
