I need a new laptop I think. I want to get rid of the old mac, which I love. I just can't fit it into my all PC lifestyle. Even though it runs current progs pretty dang well.

What I want is something with a good deal of processor power. Lots of app running and number crunching, web surfing and multi tasking. It won't be used for games really.

I want the smallest form factor (screen size) I can get that will still have some power. I don't care about weight and I don't care too much about battery life. Anything over 3 hours would be fantastic.

Anyone ever try a DIY rig?

Any suggestions?

Not much of a computer person myself. I bought an Asus, which one of my friends recommended. Depending on what you want, they make different models.

Keep in mind this guy lives in Japan and that is what they use.

Shanghai General Motors started selling cars in China in 1998 and sold fewer than 20,000 cars in 1999. By 2009, sales had grown to over 1.83 million units and are on target to top two million this year. Because private ownership of cars in China is a relatively new concept, an enormous percentage of the customers picking up new rides are doing so for the first time. We met two customers in the showroom during our visit.

One gentleman was a 41-year-old employee of a construction company in Beijing who just got his driver's license a year ago. He bought a new LaCrosse last year based on the recommendation of friends. Because of his inexperience (and the relative inexperience of most Chinese drivers) he wanted what he felt would be a safe car. Word-of-mouth promotion is nothing new, but it's particularly important in China. What's different in China is what happens at time of sale.

In the United States, the vast majority of new car sales are financed. Very few people buy cars for cash. Precisely the opposite is true in China. Over 90 percent of new car sales are conducted for cash. When we say cash, we are not just talking about paying in full at purchase time with a check, but actual stacks of cash. Customers will typically walk in with a large bag or case filled with bundles of Yuan. The largest Chinese note is 100 Yuan, so imagine paying up front for a $40,000 (about 280,000 Yuan) LaCrosse. It's a very peculiar phenomenon.

Another factor that's different in China is the number of sales per dealer. Shanghai GM has 385 dealers around the country including 17 in metropolitan Beijing. The one we visited sold an astonishing 2,513 cars in 2009. Among the other dealers in Beijing, Shanghai and other large cities it's typical to sell over 2,000 cars per year. Those are the kinds of numbers that make even Toyota dealers in the U.S. look like laggards when they sell 1,000 cars a year. In contrast, American Buick dealers typically sell less than 100 cars a year.

Buicks sell so fast in China that on average they spend less than 20 days on the lot. The one exception to that is the Enclave, which became available in China in 2009. Because they're imported from the U.S. the Enclave is quite expensive and only available by special order. It can take from three to six months to get an Enclave, and the customer we met earlier came in and bought his LaCrosse the same day – a standard practice, we're told.

The other thing most customers do is come back to the same dealership for service. This particular dealership has about 80-100 customers per day and the service department includes a full body shop in addition to the usual repair and maintenance facility. In order to help customers dealing with the aftermath of a crash, there are representatives of the two largest insurance companies on site whenever the service department is open. The insurance representatives work with the service department to process claims and get the cars back on the road.

very interesting stuff

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. . A woman has told police in Southern Indiana that her ex-boyfriend threw a Chihuahua at her head as he attacked her. A Bloomington police report say that the man hurled the three-pound dog across the room at the 22-year-old woman. The report says the dog wasn.t injured as it struck the woman, slammed into the wall and then fell to the floor.

Rough edges on the sub cutouts and missing the second baffle. Ran out of daylight....

Dual purpose box. Sealed for daily fun and ported for burps.

Can't wait to see what 2 Polk 12's can do on 2000w

Looks like the temp one I made for the geo a few weeks ago. Except for the slant.

What are the two other holes for if you are using only 2 12s? Big ASS ports?! Lol.
