I've been a sysadmin for 12 years, tech support for years before that- I get the technical side of it... just haven't been able to find evidence to support or disprove your claim. Again, I'm not arguing with you- just looking to see if what you say will justify switching to Intel on my next build.

so... spending the extra 600 bucks made you more money and increased productivity? that's amazing!

I don't play games, which pretty much solves that one. My 7600GS 512MB dual-dvi has done more than I need for a LONG time - same for the 6000 series in my G5. If the need arises, I'll look elsewhere... but so far, nvidia has my vote. Graphics cards are EXTREMELY overrated for our industry, it's...

any sort of independent research, comparative data, etc... it's been a while since i was in a true cad environment, but the workstations used AMD athalon single/dual cores and opteron servers. if there is solid data, it will greatly influence my next upgrade (3-6 months). so far though...

Does your shop lack a heater? Materials should acclimate around 72-76 degrees minimum.

any proof, please? (not being an a-hole, honestly curious)

Good post, but for that last part- you will see a lot out of both sides of the argument. I'd rather keep my drives running, especially after a long night in the datacenter trying to recover 160 clients data by extending IDE/Power cables and flicking the HD in a "start-spinning-damnit!" motion...

Welcome from Florida! While you freeze, we sweat our asses off installing in our extended 90+ degree humid summers. I'd trade ya in a heartbeat.

scoop up samples from a few manufacturers. if it were me, I'd just use Oracal 651. Inexpensive, easy to work with, great product. edit- also, buy smaller rolls. don't let it sit around very long. I've got 6 year old 651 that works well with a bit of finesse, but it's always best to use the...

I've got nearly all AMD systems, the value for the dollar is much better. Burned out processors- ever find out why? Clogged heatsink? Bad fan? Overclocking? I've never had a problem with either AMD or Intel processors. In addition, the board has nothing to do with the processor other than...

That is VERY cool! My wife was just asking if I could do something similar with ours!

We've been using only Mutoh inks, and will probably continue to- but have been considering bulk ink systems. Is anyone running bulk in their 1204? If so, what kind and how are the results?

Our ioline recently died, diagnosed by support as a bad power board. Does anyone have one of these laying around for parts or know of a source other than ioline to get parts? We rarely use this, but it'd be nice to have. If I can't find parts for it, I may sell it for parts as it's in great...

Just spent 5 days going back and forth about getting a few products with our area rep, he's been pretty short and rude with me, never answering in full and sometimes outright ignoring me... This was his second chance. May be looking for another emergency ink and oracal source... I may not be the...

They usually stock what I need in Tampa, saved me when I ran out of ink 2 days ago. Overall though, we have a GREAT rep at Grimco that we're using for everything but inks and Oracal.

they have printer-specific MM mag for mutoh...

Same, just ordered what has to be my 100th roll.

some are surprised... myself for one. just not going to publicly judge. if i have something to say, i'd call the dude or at least PM him and would be friendly about it. the truth spoken in love personally, notsomuch directly in public. just me, no judgement passed on what you said.

:roflmao: !
