Falcon Northwest’s portable FragBox 8500 gaming rig gets reviewed

Oh yeah, you’ve options oozing everywhere for a bona fide gaming desktop that takes up some serious square footage in your domicile, but what about those looking for a potent portable? And we’re not talking laptops, either. Falcon Northwest’s FragBox 8500 — which sports a chassis that hasn’t changed much in years — was recently reviewed by the folks over at PC Magazine, and put simply, it was deemed a “game system without apologies.” Checking in at $1,895, critics found the internals to be “neatly put together,” the unit as a whole satisfactorily mobile and yes, they confirmed that “you will definitely be able to play the DX10-heavy versions of Crysis and World in Conflict at very decent frame rates.” Did you hear that? They said Crysis. Head on down to the read link for the full review of the Editors’ Choice-awarded machine.

Windows memory limits

Dave called after installing Microsoft Windows XP, and the issue of memory limits arose…

———————————————–

Before you go to the website I’m about to mention, you may want to lower the volume on your speakers: I was greatly annoyed by an advertisement on this site that had sound. The best “plain English” answer I found was at the “Dan’s Data” website:

“…you shouldn’t install more than 3Gb if you’re not running a 64-bit operating system.

“…a plain PC running a 32-bit operating system…shouldn’t have more than 3Gb of RAM…

“If you install 4Gb, there is no way to make all of the RAM between 3Gb and 4Gb available without installing a 64-bit OS, which you can’t do unless you have a 64-bit CPU. And even then it won’t necessarily work.”

Per Microsoft…

Physical Memory Limits: Windows Vista
32-bit Windows
4 GB

Physical Memory Limits: Windows XP
32-bit Windows
4 GB

Outlook file size limits

During our radio show we had discussed Microsoft Outlook, and the subject of size limitations was mentioned…

Per the article, “The .pst file has a different format and folder size limit in Outlook 2007 and in Outlook 2003”:

The .pst files for IMAP or HTTP accounts in Outlook 2003 are limited to 2 GB.

In Outlook 2007 and Outlook 2003, the Internet Message Access Protocol Version 4rev1 (IMAP4) accounts and HTTP accounts are configured by default in the Unicode format…making their limit to be 20 GB.
