    Programs used in university engineering

    I am a current undergrad in a Civil Engineering program, and the most demanding program, (well really the only program) is VMware to run Linux for the g++ compiler that the university wants us to use, but that's just for convenience because I could just dual boot if I had a weak computer. It all...

    ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD550v 64-Bit 1GB DDR3

    Pretty weak. I'd suggest at least a Radeon 5650 or GT 435M for gaming.

    Super Maximum and extreme compression software tools

    Firstly, that torrent is likely a fake. There is no compression algorithm that can compress 3.9 GB of unique data down to 9 MB. I really doubt that windows iso you downloaded is legitimate.

    Most programs are still 32-bit so they go into the (x86) folder, but it doesn't really matter where they install. It's just easiest to leave the default.

    I'm almost certain that the only way to do that is to really cut back on the quality of each movie along with the resolution.

    Why are youtube videos all choppy?

    Samsung Galaxy or iPhone 4??

    Though both are great, they also have shortcomings. The iPhone 4 has the much-talked-about antenna issue, but thats mitigated with the bumpers or cases. The Galaxy S has terrible battery life - from what I've heard, it's less than a day usually.

    The Solar Arch: Keeping Roads Cool and Lighted

    Hopefully they can survive a car crashing into the side of it... otherwise a car crash could destroy a LOT of those at one I would think.

    What Browser Do You Use?

    I'm using Firefox 3.7a3pre at the moment. It's noticeably faster than 3.6, but it's incompatible with so many things that I'm thinking of switching to another browser like Chrome or Opera.

    New USB 3.0 Laptop and Storage—Tested!

    I'd have to say that the laptop has really good value. I'd love if I could win the contest, but it's too bad it's only eligible for people in the US.
