    On the topic of rendering- Is there an effective way to render hair? Cutting hair out with a pen or lasso tool seems to leave it choppy and displeasing. I'd guess that it's along the same lines as rendering a flame, but then I don't really know how to do that either! Thanks in advance pals.

    do the 64's get the same battery life? I really don't want to have to carry an adapter all the time either =/ I went to Best Buy today to see the Toshiba's and look them over, I really like the M55, it's only a 14 inch screen which looks a lot smaller than the 15, but I can get over that pretty easily I guess. It says it uses a Centrino 750, but it wasn't 750 MHz, I assume it's the 1.73GHz because it was $1500, and it had a 100GB hard drive too instead of the 60GB I figured for $1300. Anyway I more or less wanted to sell my car right there and get the notebook I liked it so much =/

    I've just got a query about laptops. I've been looking at getting one for about a month now, instead of upgrading my desktop it seems more economical to just downsize. Looking in the $1300 range I managed to come up with a couple brands that I thought stood out, Toshiba and Apple. first let me give some specs as to what I want at the very least: Pentium 1.6 GHz processor 1GB DDr333 64MB geForce go6600 (or the radeon equivalent, I'm not too picky) 15" screen Dual Format burner (DVD-RW+-/CD-RW) the Toshiba Tecra A5 is currently on Newegg.com for $1199 with something close to that. Browsing around CNET I found the Toshiba Satellite M series (45-55) which I found to be very good looking, and not too much more than the A5 ($1300-$1400 if I recall correctly) From the Apple site I found an Apple certified refurbished g4 15" powerbook for $1600, which is really one heck of a deal considering how much I REALLY like the aesthetics of the apple notebooks. Also on Apple.com They have the 14" iBooks for a reasonable $1300, and again, I like this option a whole lot. As for usage, I don't see myself playing anything newer than Counter Strike: Source except maybe Day of Defeat: Source, but even those aren't necessary since I'll be at school again and trying to graduate. Half Life 1 mods should keep me reasonably entertained in my free time before bed. So really besides powerpoints, some graphic/webpage design, forum browsing, folding@home, I don't think it will see too much stress. If any of you has any experience with any of these models, or if you can suggest something similair, but of another brand or what have you, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks in Advance. -theNino

    $3.34 in Springfield, IL (roughly 2.5 hours south of Chicago) some friends and I were talking about it, and we decided that maybe this will spur the government to put more funding into the Hydrogen Fuel cells research, which is only about one billion dollars currently. Compared to something like the Manhattan Project, which recieved much more attention..
