I dont see a problem. We'd just be fighting hordes of moose and red shirted mounties anyway. >.>

I hope that's sarcasm.

Americans seem to know little about their own country, let alone anything about Canada. Apparently all Canadians drink beer, hunt moose, our police force is composed of mounties, it's cold, and we still hangout with Brits.

Canada is a completely independent nation first of all, has it's own constitution and severed virtually all ties with Great Britain since 1982.

Vancouver, where I am from, is more of a metropolitan area than most U.S. cities and it rarely snows, if at all.

Contary to popular belief, red shirted mounties are rare. We have an atypical police force just like our American counterparts.

Our military has been fighting in Afghanistan since 9/11.

We don't say eh, at the end of every sentence. And personally, I've never seen a moose. Although, I really do hope to see one.

Canada is not in a recession, and our dollar has been consistently up to and above par with the American dollar.

Lastly, aside from the Americans showing up late in both world wars, the Americans haven't won a war in what... over a 100 years?

And although the American military is significantly larger than the Canadian military (population alone is 10x more), most of the world hates Americans and loves Canadians. So if there Americans were to invade, the rest of the world would show up. And if you guys can't beat a bunch of farmers in the desert, how do you expect to beat fully functioning militaries?

World War 2 was only 66 years ago... How can you say we haven't won a war in over 100 years?

Reread the sentence... he said besides WW1 and WW2. He means American hasn't won a war on its own in over 100 years.

1. Overthrow the Canadian Government - our government would flee to the north or Europe and request assistance from every NATO country. 2. Dismantle its military - you cant dismantle a military spread across the 2nd largest country which has around 100,000 soldiers. They would hide out, use Canadian tactics which have time and again proven to be unbested by numerous armed forces. 3. Displace its citizens to vacant U.S. territory within the current boarders of the U.S. - You really think any armed force in the world is capable of transporting a population of 35million people, again in the 2nd largest country in the wold, to some mid western US state? LOL 4. Transform Canada into a huge military base and use its coastline as a naval front. - Utterly, totally impossible. Hitler had enough trouble securing Europe, imagine the challenge you would have securing one of the worlds longest coastlines, and once again the 2nd largest country in the world. 5. From there, we'd launch a naval-assault on Greenland and take it over. 6. We should also do the same to South America. - Implying any single armed force is capable of waging a war in the jungle of South America and defeating the hundreds of millions of people down there. Vietnam... ??? 7. The United States would become a huge empire which includes all of North and South America, and Greenland. - never going to happen unless Europe combines into some United European empire or Asia or some legitimate threat, which is highly unlikely

Definitely my XBOX 360. Not to hate on the console, I just hate consoles in general. I purchased the 20gb "premium" version with Forza 2. That set me back $600, which was almost all my money (was like 12 years old at the time). Considering my PS2 a few years earlier was $250 and came with 3 controllers, controller extensions, 5 games, memory cards and a network adapater (before they were built in). Bad choice buying a Xbox 360.

First of all learn English before trying to make accusations about what the citizens of a English speaking nation like or dislike. I am a Canadian and I'm not proud of any of those musicians, Canadian or not.

The 2500k is the sweet spot.

Nothing is really future proof. Some people think that getting a Phenom II X6 will do that but even in application that FULLY use 6 cores the superior architecure of the 4 core 2500k still beats them hands down.

I recommend getting a 2500k with a P8P67 or a P8P67 Pro if you want to use SLI.

This... I own the 2500k and the p8p67 pro. Freaking amazing combination.

LOL @ AMD who haven't released anything notable in the last two years calling competitors products, which are vastly benchmarked as twice as good as their own products, inferior. I'd really like to see what AMD can throw at my Core i5 2500k oc'd to 4ghz stable at 25c and under. An 8 core, 5 ghz stock... headroom for 6.5-7ghz oc?

I would use compressed air after taking the filters out. I don't trust vacuum cleaners as I'm pretty sure they can cause ESD on electronics. I vacuumed an old PC out a few years ago and I ended up with a dead CPU and mobo because of it.

Bought it last night... seems freaking sweet! The spells are awesome and have many combos. Pretty good deal for $10, however its pretty buggy atm. Me and 2 friends bought it yesterday and spent over an hour trying to host a game that we could all connect to. Once we all go in in the room and started the game it would crash for one of them in under 10 minutes. Hopefully well get some patches pretty soon.

My laptop cost $750 and can play most older games maxed. Anything from the last few years it can play at low-med. Its a good laptop for casual games (wow, cs, older games pretty much). If he can get a couple hundred dollars more in his budget he can get a cheap MSI laptop. They usually combine a mid range laptop graphics card with multi core processors, 4gb ram, decent hdd and it wont cost you $1500.

I think AMD processors usually run hotter than Intel processors. I have a Core i5 2500k and it runs at 24c idle with the Hyper 212+. My Intel Q6600 on a hyper 212+ runs at about 30c. Its an amazing cooler, you probably have poor airflow, bad fans on it or like I said it might just be AMD processors running a bit hotter.
