Can Am Renegade Xxc vs Outlander XMR?
I can see that they have the 2011 models for the outlanders and only the 2010 Renegade Xxc's
I would like to get one in about a years time for off roading and going through streams, so not for working although some of the features of the outlander sound good ie ACS ( Air suspension ), onboard air pump, the XMR outlander comes with gorrila tyres where as the Renegade only comes with the stock ITP tyres
Thoughts / suggestions ??
Thanks

ATI Cards :

Unless you know of a better card , I did see a physics card or something of the like that it supposed to help so a recomendation of which one of them to get would be helpful as well as letting me know what type of slot they require.
Thanks

1 AnswerOther - Electronics1 decade agoMac OS X and FAT32?
I use mac os x a lot and I have an external hard drive that is partitioned ( one partition with HFS+ and the other with FAT32 ) so that I can use it on windows pcs at friends house's if they require assistance.
My question is this
Is it possible to use mac os x to defrag the data that is on the FAT32 partition or would I need to attach it to a windows OS to allow me to defrag it ?
I am aware that I do not need to defrag the HFS+ partition as mac os deals with that partition in its own way so please dont tell me something I already know.
1 AnswerSoftware1 decade agotop contributer?
have seen a lot of top contributers / best answers on yahoo answers ( obviously )
I was just curious as to what is the determing factor of a yahoo asker / answerer being a top contributer or best answer, is it dependant on whose question you answered and then if they dont choose your answer then your obviously less likely to be a top contributer regardless of whether or not your answer was a good one or not ?
Maybe im missing something....
4 AnswersYahoo Answers1 decade agoRemote Desktop?
I have a friends computer who has windows xp home on it and is with orange that uses an orange livebox.
I want to remote into my computer at home that has windows xp pro and I am with virgin media behind a linksys router ( I have already port forwarded 3389 on both TCP and UDP ) and I know it works as I can remote into my home machine from work and else where.
I have port forwarded both ports on TCP and UDP on port 3389 for the orange livebox and I can not connect to my home machine, can someone please enlighten me as to why not.
I think its because virgin media must be a different domain and I need to enter the domain ip address or something along those lines, I am now using MSTSC version 6.0 for windows xp
Please help

1 AnswerDodge1 decade agoDodge RAMs?
I really like the look of the dodge RAM however there are a few varieties of them which either have a V10 or hemi V8 and other things, I was just curious which is the better one to choose and why and also what other add ons or things can you get for them, also can you customize them so that each driver of the ram can have a key fob each and make it adjust the seat, what music the person listens to etc ??
4 AnswersDodge1 decade agoProgramming Language and relevant resources ?
I have done a lot of vb 6 but still have a fair amount to learn in vb 6 such as dcom, com, etc, what they are and what they are used for etc.
However I know that java, C++ and objective C ( on mac os x ) would most likely be better to learn as they are OOP, the same with C# and the dot net stuff but im not so sure about any of the dot net stuff programming wise.
So any advice and relevant resources for the recomended langauge would be great.
Thanks
