@Rich ...do the images go too if you copy paste to another thread ?  I can always repost if I can get it to work

I tried but the images won't post.

Do you guys want me to transfer Mick's tutorial to the Corona thread?

If I copy and paste Mick's original post (#38) the images transfer fine.

If I copy and paste Jintu's copy of Mick's post (#41) the links to the

images transfer and are active so the pics can be accessed.

I would have just gone ahead and transferred the post but there

seemed to be some question as to whether the steps were working

properly or needed to be tweaked.

I don't see a Corona Thread Jintu? 

Mick, that thread is in the chatroom.

Hi

 

Thanks for your tutorial. Please allow me to repost this in the Corona thread, this information is important. The question is how.

Just highlight Mick's post and copy it. Then go to

the other thread and past it into the reply window.

I think here is where I'm supposed to say ... easy peasy.

Looks like that Holstein on the floor didn't fare too well either.

Yep, there's a lot to like about SSD's. Why wouldn't

you want to replace an internal disk spinning at 5 to

10 thousand rpm with a drive that has no moving

parts? Think about that, no moving parts. Are you

kidding me, a fence post has no moving parts. A

rock has no moving parts. How the heck does a

highly sophistimacated doowhackey like a data

storage and retrieval device have no moving parts?

Let's see you build one of these with base cabinets.

Sounds like a decent upgrade and you probably got the

most bang for your buck. The only thing you said that I

might take exception to is that your 525W power supply

is "robust". In today's environment I would want 750W

minimum and more likely 1000W. If you eventually want

to go to the real performers in the video card market you

will need a bigger power supply (as you noted) and you

will probably need a bigger case to pack all those goodies

into.

I recently went for the brass ring and sprung for the GTX

780ti. The card is a physical monster. It is literally the size

of a foot long 2 x 6 and weighs in at 30 ounces! Imagine

that in your laptop. I could have fit it into my 8 year old

Antec case but I would have had to take the tin snips to

the drive bay frame to make it fit.

I  am not sure how many users know this, but the available catalog / 3D Library for Mac users is significantly less than Windows users. I use both Mac and Windows and found that some of the libraries on my Windows computer is not available on my Mac. Is there a reason they are not for both?

The contents of the library catalogs are pro-rated depending

on the market share of the respective operating systems.

You could just be creepy : )

LOL!  Hey, I resemble that remark.

I hope your joking, everyone else was.

Sure I'm joking. Isn't that what the "wink" and "grin"

are all about?

Rich,  for a very large fee,  I can smooth out some of the rough edges.

I will do it for slightly less!

I won't do it at all

This price seems a little low to me for a such a huge amount of work. 

 

For an extremely large consultation fee and a moderately high markup I think I could find an exorbitantly high priced architect to get them finished up to the point you could hire Scott at a relatively low rate to clean the plans up and add a few crappy ray traces to sweeten the deal.

Wow! Now I see what everybody is talking about

when they point out how helpful everyone on this

forum is.

And Perry, thanks for your generous offer.

When I purchased my spread here the main house was

in the middle of a major (non-permitted) remodel. I asked

the owner (a sweet old lady) if there were some plans of

the project so I could see what she had envisioned for

the project. She assured me she had some plans and

that she would dig them up for me. Well, here's the plan.

Whatever you buy just get one with the best video card and CPU you can afford. Those are the 2 things that mean the most.

Those and a SSD.

Waasup D. Scott? No update? Are you going to leave us all hanging?

How did the call to the cable company go? Is Dawn sleeping with the

fishes? Let me guess, to make up for it they gave you a dedicated

fiber optic line run on a six inch diameter cable. Now when you hit the 

download button all of Southern California temporarily drops off the grid.

Just wondering....

....don't blame me,  it was  Dawn "the internet lady's" fault,  I was relatively happy too....  

So.... what you are saying is that it finally "Dawned"

on you that you have a crappy internet hook-up?

I just upgraded my HughesNet service to Gen4 and am doing many times better than previously.  Here's my before and after upgrade results:

 

Thanks for posting those results Curt. That's just the info

I was looking for when we visited this topic a while back. 

If I have to go satellite (for the dwellings too far from the

road for cable) I could live with 6 Mbps but definitely not

less than 1 Mbps. I'm still bickering with the powers that 

be at Charter to get them to run a couple of hundred feet 

of hardwire to an existing telephone pole on the property

so I can get the same cable modem service which I receive

at the house near the main road. Up front there I am paying

for 30Mbps service so I guess I should be happy pulling

66+ Mbps.

Intel motherboards have a setting you can access in the BIOS

to select the "primary video adapter". You can select "internal

graphics" and you will be using the onboard graphics from the

motherboard, or you can select "external PCIe graphics" and

you will be using whatever video card you have plugged into

your motherboard.

LOL! I think David just set a Guinness World Record for

duplicate posts.

 

 

......The shades cover up my green alien eyes, must keep that a secret. good thing you can't see the rest of the body, alien for sure

Whoa! Hold it right there buster....

You aren't one of those shape-shifting insectoid praying mantis aliens

who came down to earth from a star in Orion's belt to infiltrate our society

and enslave all of mankind.... are you? .... I'm onto you guys. You won't

get away with it on my watch.

I'm PRETTIER

Oh yeah, well I'm SILVERIER.

What do ya think? I put my shades on too.

Kind of like two peas in a pod, huh?

You know what's missing?

 

Some people and a few cars in the parking spaces.  Something to "Liven Up" the Mortuary. 

Too true, what is it that they say, people are "dying" to get in there every day.

Sorry, I got carried away there.

Not to change the subject (again) but have you noticed how

hauntingly similar my image and your (Mr. P's) image are?

"You've painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted hair
Ruby, are you contemplating going out somewhere?
The shadows on the wall tell me the sun is going down
Oh, Ruby don't take your love to town"

Dang Jon, either there is some serious foreshortening going on

or that is one tall flag pole. If that is a 10' basketball stanchion in

the distance I make the flagpole out to be 50 to 60 feet tall.
