| 13:10.20 | lkcl | leaving it to adam |
| 13:19.43 | lkcl | i've given him a list of questions. |
| 14:24.27 | zecrazytux | hum, this is not related to our netbook but... |
| 14:25.17 | zecrazytux | do [power sata(15 pins)] to [power sata(15 pins)] cables exist ? |

| 15:12.34 | mnemoc | zecrazytux: i have never seen one |
| 15:13.45 | mnemoc | always pata-style to sata |
| 15:14.06 | zecrazytux | there are some "extension cable" |
| 15:16.19 | mnemoc | http://www.lightinthebox.com/SATA-7-15P-Data-Power-Extension-Cable--54cm-Length-_p76195.html |
| 15:17.09 | mnemoc | zecrazytux: ---^ |
| 15:18.33 | mnemoc | can't fin power-only extension cables yet |
| 15:23.20 | zecrazytux | yes, both data+power |
| 15:23.32 | zecrazytux | but that's what I need for my openrd bord |
| 15:23.35 | zecrazytux | board* |
| 15:23.56 | zecrazytux | I may also "hack" some electrical cables to connect two HDDs... *fear* |
| 15:24.10 | mnemoc | exact same price at DX, http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.13067 |
| 15:24.52 | mnemoc | for 4 bucks i guess it doesn't worth to try an evil hack |
| 15:26.27 | mnemoc | unless you are in a hurry to burn your openrd board :p |
| 15:27.57 | zecrazytux | It won't burn my openrd board, it may only damage the cables or don't draw power enought to power up the two hdds |
| 15:28.03 | zecrazytux | (imho) |
| 15:28.12 | mnemoc | i was joking |
| 15:29.37 | mnemoc | i'm adict to those .hk/.tw free-shipping sites :( |
| 15:30.48 | zecrazytux | wow |
| 15:30.49 | zecrazytux | Worldwide Free Shipping |
| 15:30.54 | zecrazytux | _Worldwide_ |
| 15:32.06 | mnemoc | even for stuff of less than US$1 |
| 15:32.31 | zecrazytux | i want a linux-supported GPS usb dongle :) |
| 15:33.06 | zecrazytux | "Mini Lightsabre LED Keychain" |
| 15:33.09 | zecrazytux | uhuh |
| 15:33.59 | mnemoc | zecrazytux: didn't know those sites? |
| 15:35.01 | zecrazytux | no :D |
| 15:35.08 | mnemoc | when i "discovered" DX like 2y ago I spent a day looking around their catalog :p |
| 15:35.14 | zecrazytux | i've ever heard about DX but did not know this was so cheap |
| 15:35.53 | mnemoc | sometimes ebay (from .cn or .hk) can be cheaper |
| 15:36.19 | zecrazytux | in this case i don't think so |
| 15:36.28 | mnemoc | nods |
| 15:36.52 | zecrazytux | I've been to the "computing & hifi supermarket" near where I live |
| 15:37.03 | zecrazytux | 13⬠for one data sata cable |
| 15:37.21 | mnemoc | here (spain) it's the same |
| 15:37.24 | zecrazytux | DX, I love you <3 |
| 15:37.53 | mnemoc | i end up buying all that stuff from DX or similar sites if DX doesn't have it |
| 15:38.31 | zecrazytux | WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOt |
| 15:38.33 | zecrazytux | http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.26349 |
| 15:38.36 | zecrazytux | MAN ! |
| 15:38.43 | zecrazytux | GPS USB Dongle |
| 15:38.48 | zecrazytux | LINUX supported |
| 15:38.53 | zecrazytux | and that's written on the box ! |
| 15:39.47 | mnemoc | for that kind of stuff usually it worths to look at tomtop, focalprice or lightinthebox too |
| 15:43.00 | zecrazytux | not that much choices on other sites |
| 15:44.08 | zecrazytux | electronis are so cheap in those countries |
| 15:44.09 | zecrazytux | :o |
| 15:45.53 | mnemoc | EU is absurdly expensive |
| 15:46.19 | mnemoc | if you are lucky things are 1:1 dollar/euro with online sites in USA |
| 15:46.36 | mnemoc | but US sites don't do cheap shipping |
| 15:46.41 | mnemoc | only expensive couriers |
| 15:47.04 | mnemoc | for international orders i mean |
| 15:49.24 | zecrazytux | DX is amazing |
| 15:49.58 | zecrazytux | a few things that I don't want to buy i nfrance because it is expensive, I know add to cart :) |
| 15:50.21 | mnemoc | =) |
| 15:52.11 | mnemoc | stuff as http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.1991 costs 10x in my town |
| 15:52.44 | mnemoc | and DX is making a large profit already |
| 15:53.14 | zecrazytux | same in france I guess (I don't buy it, I just go to the datacenter :p) |
| 15:53.15 | mnemoc | their customer support is slow, but always fair |
| 15:55.37 | mnemoc | hehe |
| 15:56.57 | zecrazytux | thank you mnemoc :) |
| 15:57.02 | zecrazytux | I won't sleep this night |
| 15:57.06 | mnemoc | =) |
| 15:57.59 | mnemoc | i buy something at DX at least once per month since 2y ago |
| 15:58.10 | zecrazytux | :) |
| 15:58.19 | mnemoc | they take 2w to arrive |
| 15:58.41 | mnemoc | a bit less if you pay for registered mail |
