30:14 <JarZ_> great
32:17 <JarZ_> i'm burning a bunch of cds for it now :D
33:04 <JarZ_> alsoi noticed that the insurance was for the wrong kind of car
33:13 <JarZ_> so my premium is like $100 less - $904 or something
33:29 <JarZ_> which is prety reasonable, especially since places like RAA quoted me $1900
33:43 <aSH^> nice
34:42 <JarZ_> now i just need to work out why the left channel of audio is sent to all of the speakers
34:47 <JarZ_> and/or just buy new speakers
35:38 <aSH^> yah

39:55 <JarZ_> soonish?
40:15 <aSH^> do you know what time dylan and co are going in?
40:31 <JarZ_> their plan was as soon as they wake up, i think
40:51 <JarZ_> i have no phone credit to call and wake people :\
42:08 <aSH^> i need time to get ready and get into town first
42:19 <JarZ_> yeah
42:22 <JarZ_> i assumed as such
45:21 <JarZ_> well, i'm ready to go whenever you are

57:21 <aSH^> hi
01:26 <aSH^> hey stef you there?
01:31 <stefan> yeah
01:43 <aSH^> what digital cameras can i order through you?
01:59 <damian> the good ones :P
02:01 <stefan> pretty much anything compact, a few SLRs too I think
02:20 <aSH^> can you charge to my cc?
02:25 <stefan> not yet, EFT is best
02:43 <damian> can't you DD from your credit card to a normal account and then DD across? :/
05:08 <aSH^> got a pricelist stef?
07:30 <damian> bahah
07:36 <damian> that Soul telephone/internet company is Comindico?
08:53 <damian> you got-ta got-ta got-ta hef soul!
12:20 <stefan> not really ash, they change too much, but if you tell us what you're after we can draw one up easily
13:16 <aSH^> i just want a good compact camera
13:20 <aSH^> i'm not sure on whats good these days
17:33 <aSH^> mayb canon S3 IS
17:35 <aSH^> how much is that?
20:01 <aSH^> thats pretty chunky though
20:08 <aSH^> mayb IXUS 65
21:37 <damian> $500
21:42 <damian> give or take :P
24:30 <aSH^> for whcih one?
27:16 <damian> 65
27:36 <aSH^> so $500...take :p
27:43 <damian> lol
27:48 <aSH^> what about bundled with a 2GB card
29:06 <damian> 2gb!
29:53 <aSH^> is 2GB the standard one to go for nowdays?
30:13 <damian> standard is still 128. lol
30:16 <aSH^> or is 1GB still the most efficient
30:25 <aSH^> like, is 2x1GB cheaper than 2GB?
30:49 <damian> i haven't looked at memory prices in a while, so not sure
31:11 <aSH^> 128 wow so small
31:33 <damian> yuh
32:05 <damian> but the only real reason to get anything higher than 512mb is if you're either using it for more than just pictures, if you have a very high quality camera, or if you're going on a world trip and need the space
33:28 <aSH^> yeah, i'll be travelling
33:35 <aSH^> but also i need some kind of permanent storage solution anyway
33:44 <damian> yeah
33:51 <damian> your phone support SD?
33:54 <aSH^> last time i had that XS drive
33:56 <aSH^> nah
34:21 <damian> buy a labretto, or whatever they are
34:28 <damian> more compact, better usage!
34:30 <damian> fifteen times the price
35:25 <aSH^> i've heard of people using ipods to store photos
35:48 <damian> yuh, i'm prettys ure all ipods are all media capable now
35:55 <damian> colour lcd's and what-not
36:18 <damian> but you still need a device to transfer
36:43 <damian> anywho, must be off. gotta make nicole food before i leave for work
36:46 <damian> useless girl
36:53 <aSH^> seeya
37:05 <damian> last night ig et home from work, find an eaten tub of nutella gone (it was pretty much full yesterday)
37:11 <damian> and she complains that she's getting fat
37:27 <aSH^> lol
37:32 <aSH^> mmm nutella
37:49 <damian> bai
45:03 <stefan> sorry, cousin over
45:16 <stefan> the bundled cards are generally pretty useless
45:33 <stefan> the A80s came with 32mb, heh
45:43 <stefan> don't think many of the others are much bigger
48:07 <aSH^> stef, can you please quote me on Digital IXUS 65 and Digital IXUS 700
48:16 <aSH^> also 1GB sd
48:28 <damian> your cousind visit too much :P
48:33 <damian> ey ash
48:39 <damian> you should just get a cheap/quality Kodak or something
48:45 <damian> in case your camera goes missing :P
49:00 <stefan> IXUS65 $542, IXUS750 $596, IXUS800IS $688, PSS3IS $688
50:18 <aSH^> watcha mean damo?
50:57 <stefan> $45 for 1gb Secure Digital Card
51:05 <stefan> looking ~$115 for 2gb
51:13 <damian> $200 Kodak that takes good quality pictures vs $550 Canon that takes supurb quality pictures
51:17 <stefan> and that 2gb one is EOL too
51:30 <damian> bag goes missing while you're on the road, and there's your camera gone :P
51:47 <aSH^> 1GB is sounding better, cos i just realised i can go to internet cafes and burn them to cd and post home
51:51 <damian> think of Eurotrip, no one is safe!
52:13 <aSH^> i've learnt the hard way that i need to take good care of my camera
52:23 <damian> yuh :P
52:57 <stefan> haha, the 65 comes with a whopping 16mb SD
53:14 <aSH^> haha
53:17 <aSH^> that sounds pretty bin-worthy
53:58 <stefan> I don't think I can even get cards <128mb
54:43 <aSH^> what's the RRP on the ixus65?
55:34 <stefan> $629
58:14 <aSH^> Lithium-Ion NB-4L battery & charger
58:21 <aSH^> so it has a lithium-ion battery ?
58:32 <aSH^> or i have to use AAs?
58:39 <stefan> yeah, the IXUS have their own custom battery pack
59:08 <stefan> considering the AAs are most of the size/weight of the ones we've got
01:18 <aSH^> awesome
01:42 <stefan> we can get a pretty good range of accessories for those too, batteries seem to vary from $50-150
01:55 <aSH^> can you invoice me for the IXUS 65, 1GB SD and the soft case please
01:59 <stefan> but they last pretty well afaik, so probably don't need a spare for that reason
02:07 <stefan> ah, case, want a real canon one?
02:16 <aSH^> sure why not
03:14 Quit: Taliesin ([email protected]) Ping timeout for Taliesin
06:07 <stefan> hmm, codes for the cases don't match
10:32 Join: Taliesin ([email protected]) to #marryatvillehs
11:13 <JarZ_> hi
15:17 <aSH^> ey
15:34 <JarZ_> sarp?
15:38 <stefan> I think I'll have to get back to you on the soft case, need to see if I can find a distributor that can do it, the listed soft cases are $25-45, but I'm not too sure if you'll get a generic to fit the IXUSs too well easily now I think about it
15:52 <JarZ_> you might as well get a case from an actual camera shop
17:24 <aSH^> k, yeah don't worry about the case for now
17:50 <stefan> ok then, doesn't appear to be one on canon's site for that model either
18:43 <stefan> Speed** - Up to 9MB/sec. read rate and 7 MB/sec write rate
18:45 <stefan> not bad for that price
27:51 <Dylan2> hey
28:44 <JarZ_> eya
42:07 <JarZ_> http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1950611
42:11 <JarZ_> HAHAHAHAHAH that rocks
42:17 <JarZ_> zidane's headbutt photoshop thread
54:57 <aSH^> k stef, don't place the order yet though cos i'm still not entirely sure what i want and also i gotta wait till i get paid anyway
56:29 <stefan> ah, ok, I'll just make it a quote then
56:50 <aSH^> ta
59:10 <JarZ_> hey stef
59:19 <JarZ_> do you happen to know anything about car audio at all? :P
02:57 <aSH^> lol
03:25 <aSH^> two years ago if i'd have told you'd be getting a car loan and investigating car audio options you would have laughed and sifed
03:52 <stefan> yeah, a bit
03:59 <stefan> just not so much the rice stuff
04:19 <JarZ_> i agree, as
04:21 <JarZ_> ash
04:48 <JarZ_> stef; lol. fair enough
05:26 <JarZ_> i'm starting some research.. i want a good quality sound system. just dont have a clue on where to start even
05:48 <JarZ_> i know *nothing* about how car audio is done :(
07:49 <aSH^> andrew, you could talk to adam's friend martin
08:01 <aSH^> he's really into that, and has a pretty genuine knowledge too i think
08:11 <JarZ_> true
08:13 <aSH^> also knows a lot about installing it
08:25 <JarZ_> yeah
08:46 <Dylan2> yeah he used to spend so long building and tuning sub boxes and stuff like that
08:50 <JarZ_> installing it isn't really the hard part.. it's just finding out what i need, and then what's good value + sound quality
09:18 <JarZ_> aSH^; also, for the record, i'm still against large, stupid loans over long terms :P also i never had anything against car audio
09:29 <JarZ_> except for SUBWOOFAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA type audio stuffs
09:30 <JarZ_> :P
10:35 <aSH^> haha
10:37 <aSH^> yah
11:08 <aSH^> yeah i reckon your loan is a good idea anyway, since the car is good and you'd probably end up absorbing the loan payments into your weekly spending anyway if you didn't have it
11:23 <JarZ_> well
11:44 <JarZ_> i'm saving money on fuel costs, cos it's on gas and is more efficient on petrol anyway
12:12 <JarZ_> and it's only a small loan anyway - $6600 or so
12:51 <JarZ_> and it's over two years... so i'll only pay ~$700 interest over that time, which is pretty good
13:04 <JarZ_> and that's assuming i only pay back the minimum, which i wont. i'll pay back as much as possible :D

38:02 <aSH^> if i do what you said with transfering money off my credit card into my normal acct, do you know if that will charge me a % of that for a cash advance?

10:58 <Carson> Thermaltake 680w Silent PP PSU PSTH-W0049
11:07 <Carson> stef, how much can you get me one of those (or better) for ?
11:16 <Carson> also, do you know if they're quite good?
11:26 <Carson> i've been advised to get one as they're apparently really good...
11:41 <stefan> don't know much about the thermaltakes, but they're one of the better brands
