I have been wanting a .308 rifle for a while now, I had never really been interested in FHN Usa, but since I Got my PS90 and I love it, I am very into them, These are going to be outstanding rifles, God willing if Mc Cain gets elected I will buy one of these when they come out http://www.fnhusa.com/le/products/firearms/model.asp?fid=FNF045&gid=FNG007&mid=FNM0109 in a .308 however if Insane Obama gets elected, no more assault rifles for any of us, then I will settle for a .308 Ed Brown Marine Sniper, that is if they are not banned as well!!! PLEASE VOTE FOR Mc Cain, I really want one of these guns

I was referring to 2 versions of Windows, driver issues, IRQ conflics alot of crap can happen, remember windows does have its flaws, now I have Never encountered a problem when a version of Windows was dual booted with Linux, but I have seen several with different versions of windows on the same drive -

Removable hard drives, that is what I have always done to keep it on seperate drives, companies sell chassies that you mount in your PC, they are fairly cheap, they make cases that enclose a 3.5 hard drive that plug into the machine, I use to Boot Linux,and all versions of Windows just by installing the operating system on your machine, then shut down and remove the hard drive, If you try this another way, having 2 operating systems on one drive, you can run into problems, -

The higher your resolution, the smaller it will appear from across the room, that is the trade off, now if you want it to appear bigger from across the room you will have to go with a 60 or so inch LCD. that is the trade off unfortunately -

Not all machines have that issue, I agree with you, However I have personally resolved issues in DDR2 based machines Laptops and Pc's by matching the memory modules, Although the memory can be installed one module at a time, the best performance comes from using matched pairs of modules as a rule of thumb this is the best way to go, Glued in sucks, but Compac use to ( not sure if they still do ) solder their modules in, that was a royal pain in the arse!! -

If I were you, I would put the same modules in, in other words if you plan on leaving your original stick in and put a new one in the next slot, you may encounter problems, mismatched memory has proven to be a pain in the ass, several computers that I have repaired were problemic because of the memory banks not being the same modules, as a rule always use matched sticks of memory for optimal and hassle free preformance,, -

www.crucial.com I have been building PC's for over ten years and always use them, they sell Micron memory guaranteed for life and have a program on their site that ensures that you order the correct memory, they are the best in my opinion, Memory is dirt cheap these days -

Do you have the Mac Book Pro? that is what I have mine came with a 250 Gig hard drive, I bought a 2.5 Firewire 800, 320Gig external hard drive for it and I love it, Mine came with 2 gigs of ram, I bought 4 gigs from Crucial for like $89.00 man it really makes a difference, I have tried everything to lock it up and it will not, I love that machine!! My neice has a Mac Book, with I believe an 80 gig hard drive, I installed the 2 gigs that I removed from my laptop into hers and it runs great, the Macs are awesome, the Mac Book Pro is very expensive, but I love the thing and can quite honestly say that it is worth every cent. -

I have personally used every Microsoft operating system in existance, I Beta tested XP and Vista well before their public releases, the ONLY operating system that Microsoft makes that is totally hardware dependent is Vista, Vista MUST be ran with a Dual Core ( at minimum) processor and should have as much memory as your motherboard will allow, with 32bit windows versions this is 4 Gig, 64 bit systems can handle alot more. My machines run Vista Ultimate with no problems whatsoever, look on your Windows experience index, right click on your my computer Icon, select properties, and it will bring it up, if you have 3 or better, you should be good. I was always one to stand behind Windows versions, however I recently got a Mac Book Pro laptop and I will never again buy a PC, the Unix based operating system of Leopard is the very best I have ever seen, I am sold on it! -

+1 the internal extractor Kimbers are a great gun for the money

JWP, this Picture shows it better, it is a Very Dull finish, almost like parkerizing, I am not sure exactly what it is but it is called Diamond finish in Black, they also have a Earth color of this finish, again thease pictures are when the gun was new, it looks the same after hundreds of rounds and holstering, I am very impressed with this stuff, it is expensive but worth every cent
-
I agree, I was allowed to keep my DL this last time in Nashville, they popped a hole in it, always before they took it from me,

Yes he is mistaken, as a TN resident of 6 months or longer he has to get a TN permit to carry a gun, as far as Florida is concerned he is Covered, Tennessee however feels diffrently ( I went through this ) Taken from the TN department of Safety Website: If a person with a handgun permit from another state decides to become a resident of Tennessee, such person must obtain a Tennessee handgun permit within six (6) months of establishing residency in Tennessee. Such person will be processed as a renewal applicant if the eligibility requirements of the other state are substantially similar to the eligibility requirements of Tennessee. View application requirements by state for persons holding a Handgun Carry Permit from another state and applying for a Tennessee Handgun Carry Permit.

Black Diamond, is the best finish that I have seen, I love stainless steel but if you want a black gun that is going to last this is the way to go, I love this finish this picture is from when it was new, it still looks the same, I can not wear this finish off, I carry this gun constantly in a leather holster and it is showing absolutely no wear, it truly is an awesome finish
-
Intresting, I tried to keep my Florida permit, but to get the Tennessee I had to give it to the DMV, nonetheless it was still good with the state of Florida, when did you get yours? the laws may have changed,
-
Yes you do, It is the law When I moved here from Florida, I had to surrender my Florida permit, the receipt I got after taking the TN class worked as my carry permit until my TN came in, However, the state of Florida does not care, if you are a resident of TN, they will let you renew your Florida permit, I just did, but for the money it is not worth having as long as I have a TN permit, Florida use to be the king of Permits as most states recognized them, now TN has just as many states
-
I have a Florida and Tennessee permit, I just renewed my Florida but I will not do it when it expires, Tennessee NOW has just as much recepitory as Florida, the benefit to a Florida permit is that it is a Concealed Weapon permit, not a Handgun carry permit, meaning in the state of Florida I would be able to carry my PS90 if I wanted to,

Thanks joe, you are the man
