I have four 512MB Infineon PC3200 sticks for sale. I'm thinking $140 for all of it, or $75 a pair. Don't really want to sell them individually. I'm not using it now because I ordered two 1GB modules.

That's right! I have two full "gigabytes" of "Random Access Memory" for the low-low price of just $140. Act now, and I will throw in a free anti-static "RAM-Cozy" for free!

That includes:

Four 512MB sticks of PC3200 "Random Access Memory"
The anti-static "RAM-Cozy"

All for just $140

What an amazing offer!

To order, PM me on forums.enderzero.net today!

ROFL, RAM Cozy! I love it!

Everyone needs a good ram cozy!

Make Frills, Not War: A Cozy for a Missile

By ANDREW ADAM NEWMAN
Published: June 5, 2005
Elizabeth Demaray, a conceptual artist who lives in Brooklyn, has upholstered stones and knitted sweaters for plants, as part of a campaign she calls "inappropriate care-giving activities." Her largest effort: a cozy - akin to the teapot or cake-mixer covers found at church bazaars - for a 10-ton Nike Hercules missile.

Ms. Demaray had the idea during a residency at the Headlands Center for the Arts in Sausalito, Calif., a former launching site for nuclear and conventional missiles. The artists' colony sits alongside an educational center where decommissioned missiles are restored and maintained by volunteers, mostly Army veterans once stationed there. Ms. Demaray took a walk down the hill to introduce herself, and the veterans warmed up to her quickly. "These ex-Army fellows invited me to do a piece at the missile base, and I said, 'Funny you should invite me, because I've been thinking about it and I'd like to upholster one of your warheads,' " Ms. Demaray recalled. "They all got really quiet and looked at each other."

It turned out that it wasn't the propriety of draping a frilly cover over a cold war weapon that concerned them; it was the possibility of damage to their precious charge. When she convinced them she would do no harm, they made her an official volunteer, issued her a uniform and pointed her toward a silo. The cozy, which required 88 yards of quilted light-blue satin, ensconced a missile on its launching pad for two months in 2001.

The cozy has lain dormant since, but will be shown again, if only in two dimensions, in a group show, "Fear Gear," that opens June 22 at the Roebling Hall Gallery on West 26th Street in Chelsea. Unfortunately, at 23 feet at its longest point, the gallery is four feet shorter than the cozy. Ms. Demaray will display photographs of her handiwork at the opening, but is hoping to find a space nearby - perhaps the ground floor of an office building or a spacious apartment - that could hold the piece during the exhibition. If the cozy re-emerges, it will be a kinder, gentler version. Ms. Demaray said she would stuff it with foam, "reasserting the missile as a soft-bodied, lumpy variant of its original form."

Missile cozies. What will they think of next?

Sorry to distract from the amazing RAM sale, but a news article on a missile cozy just seem to go with the topic of this thread!

Indeed it did. I think I'm actually going to close the great RAM sale. Think I'm going to give the 2GB to SpiderChoki, take his 1GB of Corsair Value Select, and use it in this computer I'm upgrading for someone.

Thats the ram I have, Corsair Value Select!

Mine is Corsair XMS TwinX2048 CMX1024C2.

I don't think the name is long enough. (Well, part of the name is indicating that it's a matched pair, but still...)








Still waters run deep!

My computer is actually starting to look like it could tear ass around the back yard. If I was going to compare it to an automobile, I'd put it in the "Security Edition Black BMW 740I" category.

ROFL...


Yeah I gotta post some pics of my machine, its Sahweetah!

Oh sweet nectar!

Think I'm going to pick up a new cooler on my way home today. Then, I may try OCing just a touch. My RAM is running quite happily at CL2 1T right now, so perhaps if I drop it back a bit, I can speed up El Proco.

How is your Psychonauting coming along Admiral?

I should get Teh MonX0r over with a camera. I should actually just go buy a camera. I've got a DV cam, but no stillery pockery camera.

My camera was $238 on newegg the other day... The kiddies havnt warrented you getting a camera yet?

psychonauts, [spoilbox]i just finished the dance party level, that was awesome![/spoilbox]

Well, they have warranted a camera, but I haven't gotten one yet. I kind of like my mom's Optio. Oh OH Oh oh oh oH OH! Optiooooooooo!

It's tiny, takes higher quality images than I have a need for, and it looks cool.

My DV camera takes stills, but they aren't too good. The video quality though is quite nice.

[spoil]That was an excellent level. I can't wait until you see a level or two after that. You'll know what I'm talking about when you get there. It will remind you of something from the olden days.[/spoil]

Hey! My spoiler box turned out stupid!

What DV camera?

I saw this cool casio slim pocket camera, i was really impressed by it. So tiny!

I have one of those tiny little JVC DV cameras. (Blue and Silver jobby) Firewire, USB, etc. It's pretty cool.

Niceorz!

Mmmm.. RAM Cozy. sehr tempting.

I'm really not supposed to do this, but I could send you a RAM cozy for the price of shipping.

indeed. further contact will be initiated sooner than two shakes of a lamb bone.

Unfortunately the RAM is no longer mine. It was purchased along with all my other spare parts yesterday. (I'm building a system for someone.) I expect I shall have some again soon though. That always seems to be what I have laying around. I'll notify you as soon as I have some. On the other hand, a GB of Corsair Value Select (good RAM by the way,) is well under $100. (70-90 if memory serves.)
