I'm finishing off my NES project, modding a new case to house my water cooling setup and going out of state for soccer.

I always thought it was Cholmondy Warner, after those wonderful english double barreled names that weren't prounounced as they were written...

That way you had to know of the person in order to be able to say their name...

The 8KHA+ first me hopes? That would be more interesting to me personally. And before you start, read my motherboard reviews article please

EDIT: I will be doing nothing computer related over the holidays as I am going to Florida for 8 days. I'll post more about it before I leave, as I am quite busy right now getting Linux set up without modules. Modules are too hard for me right now.

Didn't the guy from Arctic Silver say it was a "good budget solution"? Personally, the tube I bought of AS2 will last a long time, and the price was good. (I think I used it 10 times already and have not used 1/3) Any loss of performance at all would make me want to stick w/ AS2 if I needed more.

I guess for those who only need a few applications, a smaller packet and a lower price would be a good thing if it still does a good job.

I look forword to reading your review Betty.
