    edit in -> I tottally mispelled Klaws name B)

  2. I'm a pretty simple guy:

    blue jeans cuffed of course

    white or black shirt

    creepers or all-stars.

    white or black wife beaters in the summer.

    I am partial to blue and black dickies, and I have a lot of bowling shirts too.

    my hair grease is the most important thing though. black and white brand just like elvis :devilboy:

  3. hope the fans got in some good shots. I would love to kick a pro ballers ass.  7 figures to throw a ball through a hoop and they can't even act right.

     

    I was going to reply, but you pretty much hit the nail on the head.

     

    They get paid far more than anyone who really contributes to society, to do something millions of people do for fun, and they've got the self control of a street thug. Not all of them are that bad, I'm sure, but the situation is ridiculous.

     

    they act like street thugs cuz most of them are street thugs. I remember when a gangta type like spreewell or iverson stood out on a team like a white dude. now the whole team looks like boyz in da hood. :D

  4. I've never really been a big GT fan. and I gave it plenty of chances, I owned all of them including the gt 4 teaser. I guess I am just not fast or furious enough. :clapping: I would like a GT type game with all old muscle cards and hot rods. not just a token mustang or vette. :D I wanna build and drag a rodded shoebox ford, or a chopped '32 5 window coupe. that soulds like a game I'd never get bored of. :banghead:

  5. The 3x FRAG is usually an issue with d0.  The only thing I can suggest is possibly cleaning the d0 poing and the connection of the Matrix Chip since it sounds like it's having issues staying in contact.

     

    I don't trust Matrix chips and their connection w/ d0 as it can be very difficult to align one.  I'm putting one in for a friend of mine and I soldered the d0 from the chip to the backside d0 point of the motherboard and it works perfectly everytime.  Unfortunately I stripped the screw to hold the chip in so I've gotta find another one tomorrow.

    yeah I will try that, thanks. like I said I'd solder it in but I don't have an iron and don't really know how to solder. anyone know of a general soldering faq? if I had the cash I'd just get a new xenium ICE with solderless adapter....

  6. If I were going to buy it. (I'm not I am broke :banghead: ) it's alittle disapointing that steam costs the same as going to the store and buying it. you'd figure for not getting a disc or manuel or even a cool little box. they could knock a few bucks off the price. not to mention the download time, I'm guessing between 6 and 8 hours on cable. it only takes me 10 minutes to get to best buy..... if valve really wanted steam to work they'd give a bit of incentive to it's users

    Actually the cheapest Steam (Bronze) is 5 dollars less than the normal retail. It's extremely costly to run Steam so that's why the prices is what it is. But the main reason it's not at a lower price is that Vivendi won't allow them to sell for cheap otherwise it would be a breach of their contract since it would take sales away from them.

     

    well I would rather the bulk of my money go to Valve and not Vivendi. so if I do end up with some free cash I'll get it on steam, does it come as something you can burn? like an iso or zip or whatever? I am not paying for a program I can't back up

  7. I've had my matrix and v1 xbox for ever now. but I am having a problem now. sometimes when I turn on my xbox I get teh 3x power on/off then frag. I look in the side and see my matrix is still lit green. usually if I lift up the xbox on the left side an inch or two and then let it drop I will boot up fine after that. so I figure my matrix isn't contacting the points solidly. I have realigned my chip and tightened and loosened the screw to see if it helps nothing helps.

    any suggestions? I heard someone hot glued thiers in but that sounds suspect to me. I'd just solder it if I knew how and had the tools available.

  8. the post above hit the nail on the head I'd just add:

    APPS:

    boxplorer (it comes in handy if you use evox as a dash, for poking around in your harddrive. I actually used boxplorer to install evox when I first started.)

    the dongle free dvd player I can't remember the name. hehe

    Dash:

    Evox: is what most use and there is pleny of help avail. for it

    Avalaunch: is prolly 2nd most used and features faster ftp transfers if used with qwix.

    xbox media center: (it can also be used as the dash)

     

    if you are into online games you may wanna get xbconnect too.

  9. If I were going to buy it.
