    lol yeah so later this week if I can bring myself to get off my ass I'll go to take some pictures of the car I was given. Its a little shitbox with a 4 speed auto, but its alright for now. I'll kill any existing suspicion that I'm a troll and take some pictures (with eggnog)

    Yeah today I spent like 350 bucks, roughly. I spent the last 2 hours playing gta4 I was confused by the driving for a good part of those two hours after I've gotten used to playing gran turismo 4 lol

    Really? You got to go and show me up? I was just about to brag that I got some Black Hills "remanufactured" (once fired brass) .223 for cheap. But now I don't think I'm going to share my find.

    Nope, I just don't want to be accused of it and end up being banned. I just remember skimming through the post eggnog made about proving your ownership of a car. I assumed it applied to everything else you said you owned lol

    You won't be banned unless you do something really stupid. The guy that was banned for claiming to own a G35 was a complete troll. Not actually owning the car was a tiny part of his ban.

    You use an optical for the sound? is it really that diferent from the HMDI sound? or it only maters if you use an independent sound system?


    Purchase:

    I switched my PS3 HD, i should have a 500gb PS3 but alas it shows as 465gb with 412gb availabe, with nothing installed. A bit of a head scratcher.

    So if you are going to switch the HD be prepared for some desapearing GBs.

    500GB hard drives are in fact 465GB hard drives. Hard drives use SI units, while most operating systems use IEC units. Thus you're 500GB hard drive shows up as 465GB.

    1GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes (SI)
    1GB = 1,073,741,824 bytes (IEC)

    Why it says 412GB left with nothing installed is beyond me though, have you formatted it properly?

    1GB Does not equal 1,000,000,000 bytes

    1GB Does equal 1,073,741,824 bytes.

    Thus 500GB = 500,000,000,000 / 1,073,741,824 = 465.66GB

    THEN, anysystem has to put a directyory/file structure and 10% is not unreasonabel to support that.

    So from basic Computer Science, it looks bang on the moeny for what you paid for !
