Israel See that wasn't so hard.

I doubt there is any way to make it "completely inaccessible" and still fulfill your obligations (e.g. returning a melted drive probably wouldn't fly). Is the drive still accessible at all (e.g. does the computer recognize it when you attach it)? If so there is software that can write...

Yes

This doesn't use USB but it may be what you are looking for: http://www.maxivista.com/

Funny, someone else said installing it was "MUCH easier", not "no different" from Windows, guess that was just hyperbole. You know, by all accounts Beta was technically better than VHS but sometimes you just have to let it go. Not everyone is ignorant and waiting to be saved. I bet many of...

Why would you need to walk anybody through it if "installing is MUCH easier than Xp + Office" You *nix-heads crack me up, as soon as a thread with Windows in the title appear you all swarm to it like a moth to light. Sorry, didn't mean to interrupt your preaching - please continue.

I agree its better but it makes no sense to say its more stable. Its the same code. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/home/howtobuy/choosing2.mspx

Wow, that's like asking if you should change the exhaust on your car or replace it with a motorcycle. Anyway, if you don't know why you need XP Pro then you probably don't need it. If you want to know the differences between xp pro and home you can google and get a list of features that...

I don't understand the question, what other OS choices are you considering?

True (good deal even if the rebate doesn't pan out). I have no personal experience about TD rebates but over on FatWallet whenever someone mentions a TD deal that involves a rebate the folks go crazy like its a sure thing that the rebate check will never show. Example...

Yes its quite possible (as long as the apps in quesiton allow you to chose where they get installed). Be sure to chose a USB drive that is fast, they do vary (look at the read and write specs in MB/sec) The next version of Windows (Vista) will automatically take advantage of any attached...

Glad to hear everything worked out so well. You really lucked out with Maxtor giving you a new & larger drive to replace your dead one. I've heard some horror stories with regards to TigerDirect handling of rebates but hopefully that will not be your experience (be sure to save photocopies...

I believe that this will do what you want: http://www.nat32.com/ although I haven't used it myself, I have read about it before and saw it mentioned here in response to a question that looked similar to what you were asking (http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=700234) I did have...

Other than the "usual places" this is all I can think of: http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?fsop=1&fsoo=1&keyword=on&from=R3&strKw=+n&siteid=0&satitle=dell+coupon&sacat=-1%26catref%3DC6

Not to change the subject, but did you know that there was some random person talking about you a few weeks ago? http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=65182&perpage=40 This is the first time I've seen you post since then...just thought you should know.

A company does not ever have to do a buyback, it has no obligation to do so. A short position by definition means that you do have an obligation. If I have a bar of gold and decided to sell it and one year later after the price has gone up decide to buy it back it doesn't mean I was "short"...

Wow, amazing post! I can't help but be swayed by your convincing logic. May I ask, how far above the legal limit were you intoxicated when you posted this? I'm guessing by a factor of at least 4.

I use USB for single drive enclosures and firewire for a multibay (4 drive) enclosure I have because firewire supports chaining and USB does not. From everything I've read the speed between the two is really a wash but most PC's have USB 2.0 ports but most desktops do not have firewire...

Buy an external enclosure with the interface of your choice (USB 2.0 or firewire or both) and add your own drive. Its cheaper that way and you get exactly the drive size you want. The official external ENCLOSURE thread ...
