Sorry. Ted Nugent gets my vote before you. Better luck in 2012.

Its got a nVidia GeForce 8500GT w/ 256MB of GDDR3 memory. That can run quite a few games.

If I didn't just build a PC, I would probably get this, considering its not a respiffied!!

If I needed a media center, or was thinking about getting or building one. I'd skip it and buy this frackin computer. Honestly its just sexy and good specs Trust me.

Kentucky, Tennessee, all you wide short states are the same to me.

So, this stupid HP convinced me to write a short PHP script off the (Linux) watch program that runs every 10 seconds and checks the site RSS feed and breaks all hell loose on my media player when the sold-out percentage passes 95%.

First 65W desktop quad-core

Apart from the regular Quad-core Phenoms, AMD has launched an energy efficient 65W part designated Phenom X4 9100e. You probably remember AMD's Sempron EE and Athlon BE series of energy efficient CPUs; in fact, the Athlon BE is still the most energy efficient dual-core desktop CPU on the market.

The new 9100e gets an "e" suffix instead, and it's rated at 65W, unlike the plain Phenoms which suck up to 95W or 125W in higher clocked models. This is a B2 stepping part, it's clocked 1.8GHz, while the voltage is 1.10~1.15v. It's nice to see AMD is targeting this market segment, if only we could figure out which market segment this is supposed to be.

Energy efficient server parts make sense, and both Intel and AMD have quad-core server parts rated well below 65W. Low-end CPUs for office and home use, such as the EE and BE parts mentioned earlier also make sense. But a desktop quad-core, well, not really. Diesel powered Aston Martin, anyone? Sarcasm aside, it will probably be the cheapest quad-core out there and that's what really makes it interesting, forget the TDP.

F A I L! Bourbon comes form Bourbon county, KY. Other whiskeys can't be called Bourbon (just like sparkling wines that aren't from the Champaign reigon of France aren't Champaign). Whiskeys like JD (from TN) are labeled TN whiskey, or just whiskey. ;)

You can't buy whisky in the county that Jack Daniels is made.... it's a dry county.

davidwr99 wrote:Close but no Cigar, Bourbon can be made anywhere in Kentucky

Geographic Origin

Bourbon may be produced anywhere in the United States where it is legal to distill spirits. Currently most brands are produced in Kentucky, where Bourbon has a strong association. Estimates are that 95% of the world's bourbon is distilled and aged in Kentucky[4]. Other states producing bourbon include Tennessee, Virginia, Ohio, Missouri, Kansas, Indiana, New Jersey, and New York.[5] In the past, bourbon has also been made in Illinois and Pennsylvania.

Bardstown, Kentucky, is called the Bourbon Capital of the World and is home to the annual Bourbon Festival in the fall.

The Kentucky Bourbon Trail is a patchwork of paths that lead to eight well-known distilleries: Buffalo Trace (Frankfort, the oldest continually operating distillery in the United States), Four Roses (Lawrenceburg), Heaven Hill (Bardstown), Jim Beam (Clermont), Maker's Mark (Loretto), Tom Moore (Bardstown, producer of the 1792 brand, added to the trail on August 27, 2008), Wild Turkey (Lawrenceburg), and Woodford Reserve (Versailles).[6]

Is this in the mini pc case? Aren't these things a PIA to upgrade?

BUT you CAN buy JD at the disteller there in Lynchburg - that is the only place to legally buy it in that county.

How do you dress your bacon before you fry it?

Well, in times of financial uncertainty in the U.S., even the blue chips can't always be there for you...what you want is what people will buy anyway: booze.

Taken from Wikipedia so take with a grain of salt:

At one time, all whisky was spelled without the extra 'e', as "whisky". In around 1870, the reputation of Scottish whisky was very poor as Scottish distilleries flooded the market with cheaper spirits produced using the Coffey still. The Irish and American distilleries adopted the spelling "whiskey", with the extra "e", to distinguish their higher quality product. Today, the spelling whisky (plural whiskies) is generally used for whiskies distilled in Scotland, Wales, Canada, and Japan, while whiskey is used for the spirits distilled in Ireland and America. Even though a 1968 directive of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms specifies "whisky" as the official U.S. spelling, it allows labeling as "whiskey" in deference to tradition and most U.S. producers still use the historical spelling. Exceptions such as Early Times, Maker's Mark, and George Dickel are usually indicative of a Scottish heritage.

Hmmm.... I learned something, too.

When I order from a bar I usually ask for scotch by its name brand. Asking for 'a whisky' is too much of a game.
