I used linix for ages, though Debian (apt is the greatest loonix tool ever)...

Might install it on my old box as a "**** around" server, but I'd never go back to using it as a desktop.. Way too involved and time consuming trying to get everything windows-based to work :cheers:

Yeah, well I was sick of windows crashing all the time and the 400 spyware/adware a month.

I don't think I can get spyware/adware anymore so that problem is solved. I still have a dual boot with XP running.

BTW, I still have a running copy of DOS 6.22, ALL Windows Versions, Redhat 7 and 9 and Fedora Core3.

you say....what the hell do you know about OS's

I'm the f$%ken OS MASTER.

Linux aint that bad. Especially this Fedora. It way outpowers windows in all ways and has less vulnerabilities. Plus I was being attacked by members of Andre NET every day. I had to run 4 firewalls just to stay alive. Now...no probs and I have a massive artilary at my disposal....so now I go to war.

Are you new to computers?

1 x hardwire firewall/router

1 x XP install with personal firewall running and all non-essential services blocked (remember, DENY all and allow each port individually!)

1 x MS Anti Spyware

No problems.

Just use common sense. "Britneynaked.jpg..................pif" is still a pif. "Click here for free porn" is never free porn. Accepting files from people you dont know is stupid. Running an FTP/HTTP on common ports is asking to be pwned. Using MSN is asking to be pwned. Using IE in anything other than "Restriced Zones" is asking to be pwned. Etc.

For the casual hax0r, a loonix box with a default install is easier to hop into than a windows box :rofl: Hello plenty of installed services that are all open and left with default settings!

I'm interested to know how linux "outpowers" windows too, is this a tractor pulling contest? X Windows is slow and clunky and needs a 3Ghz machine to run anything more hardcore than KDE.

      thanks for the advice on the box... i was thinking the 6 speed was better for cruising on the highway but on closer inspection and comparison the Rb 5 speed box was not too different...  So the choice is going to be the RB25 box... if I can save up and find one at the right price

      Thanks Matt, yes that's what i am aiming for. Just going to apply the right voltage and grounds to the dash connector. Hence my search for these pins... any chance you know if these pins are in the same spot as the ones on the S15 Dash connector? as mentioned above on page 8?

      Yes, unfortunately that's the one. Signal was noisy to begin with; after driving once and looking back at the logs I saw pressure constantly swinging between 0-200psi, or staying at 0 randomly for a few seconds. There's a lot of good sensors that share the same look and feel, so don't presume they're all bad. I bought mine for 20$ off Amazon and I should have read the reviews prior, as it's clear they're junk.  I purchased a lowdollerr motorsports sensor.
