In the Depths of the SLC!
Just got myself a used PS3! I'm so excited - got it mostly for media handling as my 360 can't really read most of the higher def formats. It is going to be used for BluRay and .m2ts files.

I also got Little Big Planet, an HD Scape Sampler Bluray movie, and The Dark Knight. I also got a PS3 BD Remote as well - not pictured.

And the final set-up

Last time I checked, hollow points were illegal. :confused:

Guess you haven't checked very often.. Hollow points are not illegal at all here at least (Illinois)

that's why gun owners get a bad rap... so much disinformation out there.. sheesh and in a situation where you need to use a firearm you really would want that person using hollowpoints. If they use a regular ball ammo the bullet might penetrate and exit the victim possibly going through and hurting an innocent person on the other side. A proper hollowpoint should expand and mushroom upon impact and hopefully stay inside the victim. Much safer for everyone that doesnt deserve to be shot.

He may be confusing hollow point with tracing rounds? idk

And I agree with koobcamuk, that was VERY American :p

I haven't been following it lately; but is it pretty easy to install a video card just for boot camp now on the new Mac Pros? I'd love to get a base model with the GT120, but only if it can replace my gaming rig... so I'd want to put a card like that, or maybe a 295, in it for Windows.

Lucky you! Everytime I get some money together specifically for travelling somehwere cool, I end up traveling somewhere more local or at least within a few states distance.


And this is way cool, I have a usb keyboard and mouse connected to my "new" PS3 and have a USB extension cable - sitting on the couch using the internet is awesome, although a bit of a pain.

You can find out about:

1. Rent a car in Italy
2. Take a boat over from Italy to Greece
(you can take a boat from Bari (Italy) to Patra (Greece). I live about 30 minutes from Patra. From Patra its about a 2hr drive to Athens.

Any questions, feel free to ask.

well i assume you are a US citizen, so yeah, it can be dificult for you to travel outside the coutry,i.e., more expensive.

Since i live in europe, i can spend a lot less and travel a lot more because europe is the same size of the US and as 50 countries in it :D

Well, i considered renting a car but students dont have that much money, so it will depend on how much people are coming along.(so far we are 2).

There is a Brindisi-patras connection on the interrail map. I was wondering this is a cheaper trip since brindisi is closer to greece than bari. Do you hapen to know how much it is for this boat trip?
