I was conceived immaculately and am humanity's Saviour. When I get around to it.

In Canada-Land The Grass is Green and Sun's Out HA HA USA

I am so deviated that I even had to go and look up the definition of 'deviated' in order to accurately express the magnitude of my deviation. Shenanigans! I demand a recount! Congratulations Z!

Yeah, maybe compared to Calgary. This place is a frigid lifeless wasteland where there is only depression, flannel, and syrup. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm taking the Buell out for a spin.

Reg mentioned it. I've used a CARB can, and had no issue filling my power equipment. And it stops poison gases from evaporating into the atmosphere. Since it hasn't affected me any, and saves the environment, I'd say it's quite the upside. If 'brainwashing' is what is turning us into practical beings that can operate the simple levers of a gas can that never causes us issue, AND helps the environment, then I hope it is kept up. I think it is called 'education.'

No. Seriously, a topic about gas tanks has morphed into something about the government being a power-hungry entity and my generation supposedly facilitating this control.

Hi, I represent 'Generation Y' and bring you this message: NO IT'S BECAUSE IT'S A GOD DAMN GAS TANK THAT MANY OF HAVE USED WITHOUT ANY ISSUE OR SPILLAGE WHATSOEVER AND WE ALL BOUGHT THEM FOR UNDER TWENTY BUCKS BECAUSE WE KNOW HOW TO INTERNET.

In addition to igniting into large balls of fire, gas cans can also ignite internet forum threads!

Pfft, three submissions from DF?! Obviously the KFAP has the competition unnerved. Know what time it is? The time to admit defeat and send me that watch.

LOOOOL!

Are you sure you're looking at the right place? I can roll into Canadian Tire and buy a 20L tank which is a bit larger than 5 gallons for $9.79...

It's called 'impressionism.'

Whoever docked my post a point couldn't handle the competition.

Here's the Chevy 'KFap' Blazer. The watch is mine, losers.

Doubt it. Australia's market is much like North America's, and the Camry, Aurion, and Avensis all sell very well; Toyota is the number one seller in the country. In fact, their car prices are far higher than ours so reliability is a huge concern, as many Australians keep their cars for a long time. They want a vehicle that is reliable, and do not place much emphasis on what wheels drive it.

For the same reason everyone else offers 18" wheels and low profile rubber: looks.

But they're still made, and Intel has since been busted for those anti-competitive acts. Like I previously said, nobody was ever fired for buying an Intel. Their products are regarded as 'safe' and name-brand, like Microsoft. AMD needs to get it out there that their products are just as reliable, and more cost effective. Well, if that was their plan, it has utterly failed, because Intel has really encroached on AMD's server, and mainstream markesthare. Joe Average does not care what is in his PC, as long as it loads his email, spreadsheets, and porn. That's why you never see an Intel ad on television talking about 'hyperthreading' or cache. Instead it's a jingle at the end of an advertisement for a laptop, or it's a bunch of dancing engineers, or Homer Simpson.

What AMD needs to be doing is promoting itself. As it stands, the company is non-existent in the public's mind. OK, so they sponsor Lance Armstrong; the only time the American public really see Lance is when he's on the podium and they're busy making fun of the Frenchies. This is why their CEO was given the boot, I think. The guy is an engineer, and underperformed when it came to marketing decisions, among other things. Hopefully their new CEO will be overseeing some big advertising overtures soon. As it stands, Intel is the juggernaut it is, not because it makes the best chips, but because people identify Intel with being a superior product. People bought Pentium 4's thinking they were great, when AMD's K8 was easily the better chip. Why? Because Intel has commercials, branding on every PC advertisement, and of course, the oh so familiar jingle: Fortunately, AMD's Bobcat, and Llano platform make Intel's comparable offerings look like 8086's. But AMD needs to market these products; people won't know it's the superior technology if you don't convince them of it. That's doubly important, now that VIA is once again raring to enter the mainstream, and nVidia developing its ARM chip that will be CPU/GPU. Those companies will be going for a lot of the potential share AMD is targeting too. AMD also needs to make a large push to businesses, especially small businesses who buy Intel because, well, nobody ever got fired for buying Intel.

I think a lot of people miss the point of this vehicle. It's not intended to be that 'sporty,' and is more of a La-Z-Boy on wheels. A place that you can park your ass comfortably after an eight hour stint in a cubicle. People spend about a month of their lives in gridlock; having a 'sporty' vehicle is entirely worthless when the fastest you'll ever go is 60km down a secondary road to skip a couple blocks of traffic.

Those six-core CPU's aren't that new. In fact, Intel's 'Sandy Bridge' line can catch up to the Gulftown in many tasks, at almost a third of the cost. Remember too, that the new P67 platform is only a mid-range product; if AMD's Bulldozer can only perform on par with an older X58 CPU, and those from its new mid-range, then Intel will likely still remain the high-end player. What makes me a bit worried is that there have been no real preliminary 'public' benchmarks yet. Often, AMD is quite content to show off their wares when they have something advantageous in the pipeline, like Magny-Cours. Given that Bulldozer is supposed to be ready for Q2, there should be some benchmark or indication of performance by now, usually on some Chinese website that doesn't care about NDA's. And then, AMD's CEO has just been forced out. That adds even more concern. At least he didn't bail on his own accord, rats leaving the ship and all.

I hear that. But I bought this AMD system when X58 will still very expensive, and P55 wasn't even out. So I'm making do. The patch will really be put to the test when I get triple-monitor 'Surround' going. However, overclocking via Afterburner, and benchmarking has been entirely stable, with both cards running on par with 480's now. You should post your PC's spec's into the C&G systems thread!

Just under a year, and the software has improved immensely. I now have a pair of GTX 470's on my AMD rig through the hack, and couldn't be more pleased with the outcome!
