Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
I love my Toshiba X505-Q8104X. It does have an 18" 1920 x 1080p screen and is a little weighty with the power brick. But after throwing an SSD in it crushes anything I throw at it and surprisingly has 2.5 hr battery life with general office use without going into the eco utility to wring even...
The Sager will be the best performance of the options you had. Also I think the processor is a desktop version and the video card is modular so you may have an upgrade path there in the future if you want it.
Congratulations on the second child. I have 2 little girls myself.
If I would...

It is awesome, I came from a dual core AMD 64 X2 with 8800GT and this thing smokes that like crazy.
Every day...
I have the same problem with my Plantronics Voyager 520. It seems the driver written into Windows 7 is the problem as Plantroncs does not write drivers for their bluetooth headsets. I have tried using an internal Toshiba laptop bluetooth adapter and a Rocket Fish external USB adapter and both...
Yeah I know it was over your size limit. I like the LanBox Lite but I would suggest buying a 3rd 60mm fan for over the slots and I plan to mod my single front 90mm fan into 2 x 80mm or 90mm fans, I may loose my hard drive cage in the process but that is not a big deal.
Sounds like a video card hardware or driver issue. I would lean towards hardware with the oddly colored screen you were getting and crashing once the system heats up after 20+ minutes.
