  1. Trade show pricing on SignBurst computers

    I am sorry, I posted this to the wrong forum and asked Fred to move it for me. If you have any questions, please PM or email me. Sorry for the inconvenience.
  2. Should I have a server?!!!

  3. Should I have a server?!!!

    Most good (professional) NAS devices have 10/100/1000 Ethernet connection(s). Both servers and NAS devices have the ability to "team" two Ethernet connections for better performance, but I doubt that many shops would see any real benefit. NAS devices (and servers) perform at all different...

    Welcome to Signs101!
  5. Should I have a server?!!!

    I am a huge fan of professional NAS devices (instead of servers). Much less administration and most good ones have RAID 1,5, or 10. There are many different sizes and brands (I like the Bufallo TeraStation line), but as with everything else, you get what you pay for.
  6. Trade show pricing on SignBurst computers

  7. Hello from Salt Lake City

    Welcome from a neighbor!
  8. SSD Drives Revisited

    It is hard for me to justify a quality SSD for any of our systems right now. The price per GB is simply not good vs a RAID "0" array (even VelociRaptors)., As I said before, they are GREAT replacements for single drive or non-RAID systems (such as most notebooks and mass produced desktops)...
  9. Xeon/Opteron: Are Server-Class Processors Worth It?

    Sounds like solid reasoning to me.
  10. SSD Drives Revisited

    Your guess is as good as mine. It has been an issue for a while now. I have my fingers crossed though.
  11. SSD Drives Revisited

    It is really fast, but you have to be sure that your RAID controller can handle that kind of throughput or you will be bottlenecked. Also, the lack of TRIM pass-through is an issue.
  12. SSD Drives Revisited

    It is funny, we are constantly testing these drives and are still a bit weary of them for long-term, professional systems. Don't get em wrong, they can be a great replacement for a single 5,400 or 7,200 RPM drive (especially in a laptop). But when you start comparing them to RAID "0" #s on...
  13. Xeon/Opteron: Are Server-Class Processors Worth It?

    This question is a often argued one in the computer hardware community. Most of this will be too much for most folks out there, but there are some very techy guys and gals on the forum that may find this conversation useful. I know Choucove is a "computer guy" and he asks some interesting...
  14. CS5 Photoshop Content-Aware Fill

    I think that this was posted yesterday too. It is very cool stuff.
  15. How honest are you?

    Now that is a great post!
  16. How honest are you?

    For the most part, the folks on this forum are all good people doing the best they can to make a living by doing something that they enjoy. Some are more experienced, some are more knowledgeable, and some are more artistic than others. You seem very happy to be everything that you say you are...
  17. How honest are you?

    Gregg, It really doesn't matter how long you have been here. My impression is that your post was an ego trip. Saying that you don't have an ego just solidifies that impression (we all have an ego). If you want to encourage others to up their game, there are better ways to go about that. You...
  18. How honest are you?

    What? That is not exactly what I would have posted on my 11th post here. Way to piss off 99% of the people you are talking to. Why come in here and do that? These are good people making a living... and you seem to think that you are better than them.
  19. This Will Blow You Away. Sneak Peek at The New Photoshop.

    It is pretty cool. CS4 has "content aware scaling" and now CS5 is going to have "content aware fill". Not too shabby. Both are amazing. But, if you were using a SignBurst™ computer, you wouldn't have to look at that progress bar nearly as long (if at all). :smile:
  20. ISA show in Orlando

    I will be in the SAI (Flexi) booth at the show. I would like to attend a get-together if at all possible.
