I agree, if the M5P gets listed for that price, man, they'll sell truckloads to customers. No one beats Plextor when it comes to compatibility and reliability (the old timers know exactly what I'm talking about). The 5 year warranty just sweetens the deal even more. Even though their drives are...

Glossy screens suck. Most companies already ruined notebooks this way with their shitty glossy panels. Buy from another manufacturer if that's what you want, we're perfectly happy with the anti-glare coating.

Yes, they're both great drives, if it follows in the M3P's footsteps, it'll be almost untouchable for this new generation. :cool:

Thinkpads are way tougher than the rest of them junk other companies are selling. Good job, OP!

Not if you use Linux... ;)

Well fucking said. :mad: For those who insist the OP is wrong, publish your own data or GTFO.

You obviously haven't played ut2k4 or ut3 with Mr. Pant's Excessive Overkill mod...load up all the bots and watch your PC grind to a halt. ;)

Thanks, fellas. It'll only be powering my small modem/router combo, so it should suffice (I have a notebook that's connected to it, but it doesn't matter as it has a battery of its own anyways). I'm mainly looking for a "green" UPS, that is one that doesn't use a lot of energy itself...

Holy resurrection thread batman! :eek: Yeah, still using it but the time has really come to buy a new one, the backlights (it's used every day for 8 hours, at the very least) are getting uneven and thus showing some dark spots here and there. But overall it was one of the best investments ever...

EGGcellent. Corsair 0wnz yet again! :cool:

Pfft...* > HL2. What an overhyped POS game.

So...I'm looking for a good set of headphones for gaming (primarily) and some music/movies. I prefer the closed types, but I don't really have a problem with the open ones either (and a microphone etc. is not necessary). Anyway, I read the stickies but they don't mention either of the...

Hmm...damn, that really sucks. :( I *really* want this passive 8800GT, but since I live in the Caribbean that's going to be a problem. Sigh...well thanks for the info. I'll keep an eye out if/when they become available on-line. :o

Does anybody know of an e-tailer (which ships Internationally) where I can buy this awesome Sparkle graphics card?
