    Best Graphic Card for 4x AGP??

    8x to 4x is fine. It's AGP 8x to 2x or 1x that blows up your computer. Buy a 6600 or 6600 GT, and you shouldn'y have any dramas. Alternatively, you can go for an X700 or X600 (if you can find them in AGP). I_F

    Mobile AMD Athlon XP-M 2200+

    The Pentium-M is not a Pentium 4. The M has a far more efficient architecture than the Pentium 4. A Pentium-M will outperform Mobile Athlons at the same clockspeed any day. And at the moment, I think AMDs are slightly more expensive because they're far rarer. Intel owns the mobile market...

    Dehydration of ethanol

    This is a different dehydration. The dehydration of ethanol produces ethene, correct. That process removes one water molecule from each ethanol molecule. However, the dehydration of glucose to get ethanol is slightly different - in the fermentation process, this dehydration is simply getting rid...

    indefinite integral

    You need to write out the individual parts of the fraction, cancel common factors, and then write in terms of negative indices if necessary: ( ) (4x3 + 3x2 + 5)/x2 dx = ( ) (4x3)/x2 + (3x2)/x2 + 5/x2 dx = ( )(4x + 3 + 5x-2) dx = 2x2 + 3x - 5x-1 I_F

    Mobile AMD Athlon XP-M 2200+

    The XP-M 2200+ is clocked at 1.67Ghz, just under the Pentium-M 740. However, the Pentium-M will be a better performer due to its highly optimised and efficient architecture. My laptop has a 1.4Ghz Pentium-M, and it easily outperforms my desktop's Celeron D 2.4Ghz because it's so much more...

    Sc Scale

    It's the School Certificate. Why do we care? Scaling doesn't particularly matter, and you can't get into university or get a decent job with only a School Certificate under your belt. I_F

    what the definition of momentum

    Momentum is the inertia, or resistance to change of motion, of a moving object. The more momentum a moving object has, the harder it is to change its motion through the application of an external force. I_F

    Mariner 10 - space craft - help needed

    Mariner 10 was an unmanned space probe (a satellite is a craft that stays in Earth's orbit) that was the first to make use of the "gravitational slingshot" manoeuver. This manoeuver uses a planet's gravity to accelerate the probe's speed without a major use of fuel. It used Venus as its...

    beyond the hsc..^^

    Whatever I do, I want to be able to determine the way my life works. If I want to do this or that, work at this time or then, I want to have some control over how it all proceeds. I don't think I could really love a job that constrains me to set hours and set tasks... I like having some freedom...

    hsc 2006

    whats the use of internal assessments? i dont like them. id rather just be put against the state ie old hsc. Exams don't test all the outcomes. A formal state-wide exam can't test how well you speak, act, or independently research and present information. Plus, some people just suck at...

    Some dot point helps

    * Crude oil will run out in the next 2-5 decades. Most of the discussed polymers in this chapter are produced from crude oil, and when oil supplies run out we will require alternative sources of compounds to continue production. Even though the petrochemical industry currently only consumes 3-5%...

    WindowsVista+directX10 leaving ur comp in the dust

    Superior: - Far more secure (though I wager that if as many hackers targeted Linux as they did Windows, it would have just as many holes) - There's about a thousand different distributions, so it's relatively easy to get one to suit your exact needs - Cheaper than Windows if you...
