            <title>Where to dispose used batteries?</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1124308</link>
            <description>I have problem finding a place/recycle centres that take used batteries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All that I found takes only newspapers, papers, plastics, aluminium &amp;amp; glasses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am reluctant to just dump used batteries into dustbin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any suggestion? Thanks.  &lt;!--emo&amp;:)--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;</description>

            <title>L2 Cache Size</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1078799</link>
            <description>I am going to replace my existing aged rig (P4 Prescott 3GHz, 2GB DDR-400, i865PE).  &lt;!--emo&amp;:)--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have decided to go for an Intel quad core, but have question on their L2 cache size. I am considering the following processors:&lt;br /&gt;Q8400 (4MB), Q9400(6MB), Q9550(12MB).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The new rig will be use mainly for development purpose (1-2 VMs and shared Oracle/DB2 on host OS, occasional GIMP/Photoshop), no OC, no heavy gaming (I&amp;#39;ve passed my FPS/NFS time).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My main concern is I am not sure if that 12MB L2 is the right choice for my case, i.e. paying for something that will be mainly under utilized?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I&amp;#39;d appreciate any view and reasoning behind it for which processor that I should go for. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks in advanced.&lt;br /&gt;</description>
