I think I've seen every episode of this show 3 or 4 times but it's still awesome stuff. Great to watch while grinding Furbolg faction :)

We'll look into a host challengy thing. I always love to dump stuff on Tina's head :)

Lets move past the shirt...

Laura — Fri, 19 May 2006 15:44:43 GMT

I lost my luggage on my flight and had to get up very early in the morning to attend Maker Faire but all the stores were closed so as I ran through the barron streets of san mateo in my filthy clothes from the plane ride the night before I found a man on the corner selling trinkets from a blanket sitting before him. He offered an "Annie" lunchbox, three silver rings, an "I heart Satan" shirt....and the one you see me wearing. Now, let's move on.
Oh, and p.s. I got the rings too :)

That would be a hard to bust objectively. How about: Macintosh computers are more reliable and less likely to crash or fall victim to viruses than Windows based PCs. Bear in mind, I use both platforms so I could give you a reasonable answer.

btw...Laura's shirt is the bomb! I need one of those to wear under my Air Force BD uniform! LOL!

Who has more PC myths?

MarkN — Fri, 19 May 2006 08:03:38 GMT

How about an entire show on the drastically dreaded and much maligned Starforce so-called "copy protection" and just how badly it affects PC systems? I've never had the displeasure but there sure is an awful lotta talk about it.

Also, Laura, would there be any chance of a 10 version of "Host Challenges"? You once played for me on G4 when I was Cheeky Monkey there.

Great shirt, too!

Your shirt sucks. Mythbusters rock.

That's all I have to say about that.

Bust or Confirm
1. Liquid Cooling cools your processor well enough to provide a noticable difference in processing power over convention heatsink/fan
2. That people somehow need 3+Ghz 2GB RAM to browse the net and play solitare
3. CD-ROMs last a gajillion years if stored away
4. Placing a cracked but still intact CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive will cause the CD-ROM to explode upon wind-up
5. Placing a magnet on a hard drive will wipe the all info
6. fully submerging a motherboard, or any component for that matter, under fresh water then letting it fully dry will not harm the components.
7. You can make money off the precious metals found in computer components
8. You actually get use the full downloading potential of your internet connection
9.Staring at the light emmited by a optical mouse can blind you.
10. LCD screens give off no more radiation than a piece of paper reflecting sunlight

SWEET!!!

Here's a myth for you that's VERY easy to bust: "Macintosh computers are better suited for graphics and are more powerful tools for video-editing, 2D image manipulation and 3D animation/rendering."

Care to stop that one into the ground for us? ;)

Such a cool idea

Laura — Thu, 18 May 2006 19:16:50 GMT

I haveto admit I had only seen mythbusters a few times before interviewing them- but what a great idea for a show. If it wasnt a complete rip off I'd do my own mythbusters episode for 10. ooooh, maybe something about PC myths, like if you change ANYTHING in your registry your computer will die. hmmmmlight bulb goes off over head :)

I'm gonna go jump off a bridge.

Never heard that one. You and Tina should test it out...do your own Mythbusters episode.

Oh, and nice shirt, Laura.
