    Don't forget when you've got a close estimate for your total requirements, find a power supply to ~130%. This will keep it in the most efficient zone and give you room to expand.

    Example only, find the specs of your individual unit. If they're unpublished, you may wish to reconsider your choice.

    If I've shaved this month, it hasn't been since VERY early in the month...amazingly this hasn't been itchy! So I haven't shaved basically because it hasn't bothered me and I haven't had a reason to...

    Hard to see this as "attacking HBO." Netflix just made a show set in the middle ages. How is that a direct attack on HBO?

    This was my question - I'm guessing it's possibly seen as attempting to steal viewers, but as I mentioned it really won't steal viewers since they are watchable easily at different times.

    This isn't anything like the Stargate SG1 vs Firefly debacle (which Fox lost on tremendously, which is to bad because Firefly had the potential to be a huge show)

    Firefly FTW!

    I was a die hard SG1 fan - I wasn't going to not watch a show I loved to try a new show that was on at the same time (stupid Fox), which is, I'm sure, why it failed.

    Firefly was so popular it spun to a theatrical movie - While it's short stink on TV might have spurred some additional appreciation it might not otherwise have gained, I'm willing to bet it would have made at least 3 seasons on Fox had they not put it in the same time slot as SG1

    And today the same thread hits 250K views!! Wow. That gives us a pretty good metric on how long the first 100K took and how long the next 150K took, which was not too long!

    The thing they did right was to hire a professional marketer to help them with merchandising and appearances. That's why grumpy cat has millions of dollars and Scumbag Steve doesn't.

    My worry would be what is the machine was powered down for any unseen reason, would it be able to start again and function. I'm sure that there is a backup, but if its a VM backup, it would still be over 3 years since the last reboot.

    Yup, no idea if it will reboot. Pretty scary.

    I personally avoid Celerons like the plague. Mainly due to the fact that historically, they have been a cheap pile of crap that bottlenecked the system. Kind of like a cork in a bottle.
    Yes, as @scottalanmiller stated, that's not so much of an issue today but I still can't bring myself to consider them because of how bad they used to be.

    To me, they still seem like 3-4 year old tech picked up at a $2 shop, repackaged & sold as new.
