I can't speak for Graet, but I sure hope so! As westerners, Christianity is shoved down our throats everyday whereas the same doesn't really happen with Islam. Maybe that's why you've experienced what you talk about.
As an atheist, I'm very sensitive to religious propaganda, and I can honestly say I see a LOT more Islam-related articles on the front page of my local newspapers website than anything else. It almost seems as if mainstream media is bending over backwards to ingratiate the Muslim community. Have you not seen this phenomena in your neck of the woods?

Give it a try if you're not convinced so If not him, others would have created the thread
Even if you're right, so what? This makes prayers in the blockchain anymore acceptable?
I don't understand what makes it unacceptable. If you don't like a certain pools fees/name/random text in the block chain, then (and this is from way out in left field lulz) don't join that pool. Or better yet, create your own. It's not exactly rocket surgery we're talking about, or am I missing something?

You know what I don't understand? And this is just an observation from what I've read on various forums, mind you. People are always quick to chime in when it comes to Christianity or any of its various flavors, but if Graet had noticed quotes from the Quran being quoted, would he have been so eager to post the same thread? I've noticed that when it comes to Christianity, people get really loud about denouncing it. But when Islam is brought up, the exact same people suddenly get REALLY polite and STFU about it. Or at best they'll be like "Oh hey, yeah whatever you want to believe, that's cool man!" Or they'd never even make the thread to begin with, which is how it should be IMHO.

Probably. I was running two OC'd 5870s and a 5850 on a 750w PSU without any problems. The cards you listed draw significantly less power, so adding a 4th card shouldn't be a problem, unless it's a 6990

I saw that and was thinking about buying in, but I have my heart set on a 5970 now. But that's actually a really good idea to sell a card and is a lot more fun than trying to find a buyer in the Marketplace->Goods sub-forum.
