Thanks for the explanation, because I've had no clue what so ever about what he is talking about.
Of course! That makes perfect sense!
Why does every thread on this forum lead to "LFS NEEDS S3!!!!ONEONE1"?
LFS needs only one thing. Less people that complain about every chickenshitdetail.
Love it the way it is.
ADSL routers?
Haven't seen those.
And if you have the correct version of firmware for your router, and electricity doesn't run out right when you're flashing, everything should be fine. I've probably flashed tons of those and neither got "bricked".
Yes, it's not ideal. But I'd rather lose 100kB/s on a 20Mbps line than only have have 100kB/s available.
And turning of torrents on PC2 sometimes isn't exactly an option. You know how brothers can be.
As for upload, you don't need to cut it in half, you can rate it at let's say 25% and ceil it up to 75% max, or whatever.
Hard to administer yes, but far from impossible.
I'm 100% sure that it's a better solution to do it like that for home use or even in small to medium sized companies. Larger companies like banks, insurance companies and all those high muckymucks have the money to buy "serious" hardware anyway.

This however is true, but you can work around this "problem", if I can call it that.
As an example I'll take a 1024kbps connection with 2 clients and only look at download.
Because 1024kbps is the upmost upper limit of the connection I'll mark that with iptables/ipchains in the mangle table as well as both connections to both clients/computers(or subnets for that matter). So I have 3 marks:
1 - link to teh worldz!one11!one
2 - pc1
3 - pc2
Then ussing tc I'll make the mark 1 as the parent class with rate of 1024kbps. Marks 2 and 3 will have rate of 512kbps and ceiling of 1024kbps.
And because borrowing is a fundamental part of HTB qdisc both clients will try to borrow more "bandwith" from the parent class(mark 1) until they reach their ceiling or there is no more "bandwith to borrow".
So if computer1 is idling, virtually not using any bandwith, the computer2 can borrow up to 1024kbps of bandwith(in theory) and is using up it's own rate and ceil, but as soon as computer1 becomes active and needs bandwith, tc will assign computer1 as much bandwith it needs until it reaches it's rate, and try to give it more if needed and if available(because of computer2 using it as well fully on).
I don't have anything against HP or Cisco. I have against all the vendors.(ok maybe a little bit more against Cisco, because of their, "you needz to take our 31337 classez to set up a connection on our most basic, heavily overpriced network equipment and don't even dream about something better until you really mastered our stuff", policy)
I like putting things together from scratch.
And I've been running the above scenario(with higher speeds) for years at home, worked ever since, and all that for nothing. Had an old computer laying around, only spent ~8€ for another NIC.
It get's complicated tho if you have quite a few computers running and you need to ensure each of them their share of bandwith. The script grows pretty darn quick in size.
Now, I don't know if the gfx interface of dd-wrt and/or tomato provide such functionality, but one can still SSH into them and play around with the settings.

Get a decent router that supports QoS.
Like Linksys WRT54GL and load up dd-wrt or tomato firmware.
Or any other router that supports either of those firmwares:

If you'll have problems setting it up, feel free to contact me.
Don't see how this situation is at all funny tho.
Just because it says HP doesn't mean it's any good. And certainly much overpriced for such a situation. At the worst you'd need a old pc, slap on a lightweight *nix OS and configure everything by hand. By far the best performance, specially on such a slow and "underused" network.

How and where?
I've been looking for a decent G25 that wasn't overpriced for a few months now. My FFB on my old wheel broke so now I'm stuck with driving without FFB.
I can get a G27 for ~330€ here, but that's a bit too much for a G25 with 4 more buttons. And then if I'm lucky I find a G25 for ~200-250€. To much, for a used wheel, considering a new G27 costs a tad over 300€. A while back when those were still available prices were around 170-180€. So now I'm pretty much stuck, and don't tell me ebay, because I'm not fond of that bidding system. In other words, I hate it. Do any companies in your countries still hold the G25 and would ship abroad?
It works. But not as it should. Only advantage in a non-server windoze OS with PAE you get is the NX-bit. It's still limited to 4GB of RAM. Something about a driver compatibility/stability issue and a whole more yadda yadda(licensing) from M$.
So anyway, if you already have 4GB of RAM, I would go with 64-bit version of windoze. You never know when you're going to upgrade your RAM. And are you going to re-install it again just because of that?
In most cases they don't need guns either. But they still carry one all the time.
Just give it a rest. RWD is better than FWD. And it's not about the amount of power the car has it's about the amount of power you can get down to the road in any situation.
Before buying filters, try to pick the machine of the floor, specially if it sits on a carpet. Don't have to be on the ceilling, just a height of a shoe box should improve the dust issue. I'd do that anyway, filters or no filters.
Also, you could check the disk out with MHDD. It wouldn't be the first time for me to see that kind of behavior because of the hard drive.
And open up the box and check the capacitors if they're inflated. A small bulge is visible on top of them if they're inflated. Inflated = bad. Then you've got your MB to replace.

If I recall correctly, Scirocco was modeled pretty quickly and was "withdrawn" just before release due to the found bug which lead to long lasting development of tyre physics.
Oh my....what have I started 
M$ is somewhat of an "insult" to MS, because of their known "it's gonna cost ya" policy on everything. In other words, I don't give a rats behind how it's "spellt", I'll always spell it M$.
And thanks dadge for taking over the explanations.

Actually with PAE enabled OS and CPU you can use more RAM than 4GB. Sadly on desktop "oriented" OS from M$ it is not possible to run more than 4GB of RAM, because of "driver compatibility issues" and mainly, M$ licensing "issue". They use PAE only if and for the NX-bit.

Is it just me, or did you take a picture of the car with a camera and uploaded that picture?
You know of the little button called Print Screen, don't you?
You need to buy LFS before you can change your avatar.
Pause the replay where you want the screenshot from, go to options, set everything to highest, take screenshot and then turn back down to where you had it before. No gfx is that bad that it couldn't handle this. :P
Say that this smaller car is a modded XRT, wouldn't that mean that all XRTs would be "smaller" on your side?
How is this an improvement?
It's not even a suggestion.
