I promise: No archery talk within
I have hardly any attention span right now - I'm waiting for campaign to start, have laundry in the dryer, two different Google searches up, and the .tex of my geo paper open - and I imagine this entry will reflect that.
Dear DangKid,
You're in CS 2, and your girlfriend is in CS 1 - it's really sweet that you help her with her homework. Really, it is. However, we spend a LOT of time on the differences between arrays and linked lists. While that is new material in CS 1, you should probably know it by now, rather than coming to ask me about it.
No skin of my back,
Your TA
Dear NewEgg,
I realize not all of your stock is in the same place. Even still, did you really need a box that big for just my keyboard and mouse? Seriously, I could hold an entire family of cats in there.
Actually, that'd be pretty cute.
Still no access to recycling,
Brian
Question 1: Operating systems! I've seen some badmouthing of 64-bit systems, notably in driver compatibility. Is that something I should wonder about, and try to hunt up a 32-bit Windows? What about Linux - how well is 64-bittiness supported there?
Question 2: Sound hardware. The one bad thing I've heard about ASUS boards is that the sound drivers are a bit flaky. However, I'm not enough of an audiophile to feel like I need 5.1 or 7.1 sound, let alone accelerated. How much difference does it make?
