    pci-e or pci sound card?

    I would get PCIE as PCI is really on the way out. If you are going to keep the card for a while it would be a better investment in PCIE. My new MB has only one PCI slot and I have a PCI sound card and a PCI TV tuner so I can only use one or the other. I'm keeping the sound card for now.

    Will they ever get rid of IDE and Floppy controllers?

    The motherboard I have has no IDE, no floppy, and no PS2 ports at all. Who needs them now? If you have something that is still one of the above formats it is dirt cheap to replace.

    Vista SP2 Results in Increased Free Disk Space?

    I gained 2gb of space after running compcln.exe - it did not do this automatically I had to run it myself in command prompt. Great utility, but I have no idea if it runs automatically, it has not on any of the machines I have installed it on. Run it yourself as a test. For those gaining a...

    Circuit City Calls Cops On Customer Wanting Price Match

    He fully deserved the cops called on him I would bet. People think they can cause a scene and get what they want, I see it at stores all the time. Glad the manager stood up to him actually.
