    soundblaster and audigy sound cards

    I have a Soundblaster Live! in my FreeBSD box now. It's a PIII desktop with a 500 mhz processor and 512MB of memory running FreeBSD 8.0. I use it a lot for listening to mp3s with 2.1 Creative speakers. It sounds good. I've thought about upgrading my sound card and the Creative Audigy...

    freebsd 7.2 and firefox 3 and flash 9

    I'm an idiot :-). I got my versions wrong, running 7.0 and ready to upgrade to 7.1! 7.0 has worked so well I never even think about the version. OK, so when I upgrade... Is there a package of Firefox 3 or do you have to build it from the ports collection? I understand the procedure...

    freebsd 7.2 and firefox 3 and flash 9

    adding new HD on PIII with FreeBSD

    I'm currently running FreeBSD on a Dell PIII. It has a 13GB HD that came with the box when I got it. It's getting a little tight, not much room for music. Next year I'm planning to buy a bigger HD and install 7.1 on it but I'm wondering if I'll run into limitations with this older PC...

    Which is your Favourite Linux?

    I support AIX at IBM and first installed FreeBSD at home (in the 90's) because it seemed closest to AIX. I found it easy to install and maintain. Later I went through a period of running Slackware and liked it but eventually came back to FreeBSD. My wife runs Ubuntu because that's what...

    I always come back to FreeBSD since 2.4, and it always works, running 7.0 on a Dell PIII 500 mhz now and I never even think of it as an old machine. My workstation :-).

    Question about flash player ?

    I gave up on it. I have 2 computers (FreeBSD and Win2K) on a KVM switch and if I'm going to go to one of those glossy flash 9 websites I use the Win2K pc, but if I can do it with flash 7 I use FreeBSD.
