SSDs are definitely faster but they rarely last for longer than 3 years. New and fragile technology.

FranT, a HDD is a classical storage unit with a disc inside. A SSD is a flash memory unit a bit like an SD card for example.
The worst part is the million digit code to activate Windows on a new PC. Plus all the updates! But it's also a good chance to clear out the chaff. You not tempted to get a SSD?
Thanks, it was really time... now I'm starting to cry, thinking about to setup everything right! 
I knew it, I knew it! Even from the remote Italy, you could hear me giggling, laughing, jumping high... horray!
Perhaps I wasn't heard the first time. That is enough. Whatever happened on the OT is not relevant here on Fanres. Take it to another venue.
Politics? No. As John Wesley once put it, "we can agree to disagree". It's about forum rules selectively ignored/created at the whim of the ruler(s). One party shouting-down the other party with impunity is the problem.
I'm glad that so far we have kept politics off Fanres. Let's hope that it stays that way.
Speaking of which ... Silverwook, do you have an email address for the OT administrator? I'm not a member over there but I'd like send a message and there doesn't seem to be any "administator@website.com" contact information like normal websites have (either that, or I missed it).
Thank you, FanRes, for "Shoutbox"! I, and dare I say "we all", appreciate a place to shout out, while not shouting down.
I have edited/deleted all posts I made that are being looked at as bad. Rosey color returned to the shoutbox and I won't be returning to it either. I don't need the extra weight of it on my shoulders. This should fix the issue permanently.
Yes, you were just talking indeed but politics is a sensible subject as everyone knows. Let's not start debates on the chat.
@DoomBot .... you pm me even if it's just to check up on me, how could I not be nice to you? LOL 
Thanks Chew, I'll be working on the Alien DC project while I'm away. It needs a release.
Take care, Fo. I hope that you get what you need from your time out and return to complete your projects.
@Jetrell Fo - just wanted to say (and on "Spaced Ranger's" behalf) a hearty thank you for standing up to the gang-of-4 (which includes "Jay") when they plotted (which includes "Jay") to toss "Spaced Ranger" off that other forum. Even our esteem-able Silverwook could see that those doing the provoking, and outright breaking of forum rules, were the ones that should've been sanctioned. You stood up for what was right and against what was wrong. That means more to the dear departed "Spaced Ranger" than all of OriginalTrilogy's seamy underbelly. And you have my sword-of-bronze salute!
Good luck Jetrell, I hope it all works out for you. We will be happy to have you back when you are ready.
Mhm... He could post his postal address, and we all could send him a postcard via mail... 
Agree, we should all be kind! Take your time, don't worry about the projects, they will be finished when they will be finished... logic, uh?
I forgot, please be good to each other, it is more important than we know and it does go both ways.
So everyone knows, I will be away for awhile. If you need or want to contact me please use the "send pm" selection. I promise I will respond to you. I just need some time away. I will work on the Alien DC DVHS project while I'm out. Maybe I can get something nice put together that is worthy the time all the contributors put in to help.

Where there is worldwide designer Weather -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGhFjwNMA9o -- there is 3 letters: NWO
It's really cold outside, they are calling it a major freeze, weeks ahead of normal. Man, we could use a big fat dose of global warming!
Agreed, but it's not quite that easy when you'd have to uproot the family and leave a great deal behind, not to mention finding a new job. Maybe in the future... :-)
I can't wait for some warmer weather. The cold didn't bother me years ago, but nowadays it gets me down.
In Spring there are sometimes trains delayed due to playing kids on the tracks, in summer it got sometimes such hot that some of the climate systems in the trains faild due to overheating.. in autumn the leaf on the tracks surprises the "DB" .. and in winter.. either it is just the cold.. or the snow..
Well.. in Germany we have the Train system.. formerly known as "Deutsche Bahn" now just "DB - Die Bahn" .. it has 5 big foes for there sceduled train arriving times: "Spring", "Summer", "Autumn", "Winter" and it's own scedules...
We've got snow too. Unfortunately I'm in the UK and our infrastructure breaks when it snows
Currently 47°F (9°C) in the south of France... Planning to move into some warmer country ASAP lol
21C I would consider jacket and warm long pants weather I don't break out the shorts until the mid 30s.
I don't break out the shorts until the mid 30s.Wow well here it just went from 70F (21.1C) to 28F (-2.2C) in the space of 3 hours. Literally shorts weather to snow storms in the eastern US
How much would you pay for an ebook with 12000 laserdisc reviews? And for an "old style" (read: printed) book?
Guys, I miss a website with screenshot comparisons between laserdisc (and even VHS, CED, VHD) Vs digital video formats... and you?
I didn't realize that John McTiernan directed a video game ad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2On9gv3C_iI
