  • Why would I need an i7 anyway?

    Is an AMD Phenom II 8GB Ram faster than a dual core Pentium 2GB Ram? and by how much?

    I'm not really sure what programs require an i7's performance.

    My research is telling me I may not even tap into it for years to come, That doesn't make much sense to buy one now. I can buy it later.

    I really just want a fast computer that doesn't search for things just gets them, inexpensive is good too!!! I just want to buy the best one for my needs. -business, some graphics, no games at all

    I use it for business, some graphics ... ie MS publisher, I never use it for games.

    I like Intel buy at

  • Do you think green space is a good name for a stonework company?

    I am already incorporated as Green Space Inc. My company primarily focuses on Stonework, with site work a close second. Since the majority of work we perform is in Stone should I change the name of the business to something that portrays Stonework or just leave it alone?

  • should I move and start over or stay and suffer?

    I live in a very hard hit area of Florida with no work. We are both working dead end jobs and subsidizing with our rapidly diminishing savings. (Oh and currently unhappy and depressed) If I move back to NY and restart I can be back in business and making good money within 2-3 years but I will loose my home and my credit already stinks so I'll be renting for 10 years but at least I'll be able to put my kids through college.

    Do I stay or do I go?

  • Should I loose what little I have left to start over and or ride it into oblivion.?

    I have owned and operated several companies before and been very successful in NY. I am trapped in SW Florida in a home with an upside down mortgage and I am almost out of $$$. If I go back to NY I will not have no credit for at least 7 years and maybe some judgments, but I can rebuild the company with out credit in 3 years. Here in FL the best I can do is drive a delivery truck for some very arrogant managers. My Florida business is a bust and it seems this place although beautiful is starting to depress the snot out of me. I am protected by the debtors laws but what kind of life is this.

  • Reading dipstick on an 02 Audi 3.0?

    It the orange fiberglass dipstick has the rings. One side gives a higher reading than the other. I was reading the lower side but now I'm second guessing that. There is way too extreme of a difference to say split the difference. low reads 3/4 full highside reads overfull over the top ball.

  • Audi Quattro vs Front wheel drive?

    I have a 02 A6 quattro, and I found an A4 I like but it is only front wheel drive. How do the Two compare driving wise. My A6 feels like I have magnetic wheels on a steel road and very smooth, the road vibration does not register through the steering wheel like other cars. Is the Front wheel drive similar, By the way I live in Florida so quattro is not necessary. Has anyone driven both? Thanks

  • Tire guys !!! Different weight ratings on my truck. Could it be the problem?

    I went to Firestone bought Bridgestone duelers to replace the duelers I had on the truck also got an alignment. They put 2450lb weight rating max 50psi on the front and 3415lb weight rating 80psi max on the back.

    I rotated them myself and brought it back for an alignment and they rotated them back. Ever since these tires (same model as my last tires) were put on, my truck handles like crap and now the front tires are wearing funny. Of course I spoke with the manager who said it's OK because the heavier tires are on the back but then he just looked at me funny when i said "How am I supposed to ratate them,... Dude?( with an attitude ) The Door sticker says 60PSI front and 80psi rear, I can't put 60psi in 50psi max tires. I really use to like this truck but lately because of the way it handles I don't like driving it anymore. Is it me or are they trying to pull a fast one. I never even heard of putting two different weight ratings on the same car especially when you're paying 1000.00 for new tires. I also have a lifetime alignment agreement and believe me I use it. What to do???

    I need to buy a scanner that works. I really don't want to spend a lot of money on a snap-on. I only need for my car but I want my own.

Bottom line is It will cost what it will cost but I would like to the least expensive one that will work.

  • 2002 AUDI A6 Auto,Transmission Fluid/Filter change??? should I?

    I have a 2002 Audi A6. I can tell by working on it that it has been Maintained but I have no records. It has 113,000 and I want to change the Transmission fluid and filter using the "blau kit". My experience on CHEVY transmissions tells me not to if it has not been done within 60,000 miles because of the washing effect will keep clogging the new filter. Is it the same with Audi will it clog the filter and cause it to slip??? I plan to keep the car a whiiiiiiiiile or unleast until the stimulus package kicks in. Ha
