    Pixel 7 / Pixel 7 Pro enhanced trade-in credit and promo gift card @ BestBuy

    If you went straight to BB's Trade-In Program, they will low-ball you there every time. Did you happen to try adding an unlocked 7 or 7 Pro ("Activate Later") to the cart and then checked your value?

    EVGA GTX 1660 SC ULTRA + EVGA 500w BR PSU $426 + Shipping

    It might also be worth noting that EVGA, as of 1/6/2022, has immediately changed the way that their Step-Up program works. Details on those changes can be found here: https://forums.evga.com/EVGA-StepUp-Program-Updates-162022-m3510480.aspx

    Microsoft Wants You Using Edge, Whether You Want to or Not

    https://www.hardocp.com/news/2018/03/17/microsoft_wants_to_force_windows_10_mail_users_open_links_in_edge This was already reported a few days ago, too. :) Granted, this post refers to the same info from a different source (Neowin in the post by Megalith and The Register by rgMekanic).

    EVGA Cards in stock

    I've also read that EVGA recently hiked their prices by about $50-$60/card due to increased costs for GDDR5 (though I do not have any direct sources to back that up). Either way, EVGA is definitely worth supporting due to their excellent customer service. Historically, they've proven to build...

    Netgear "Fixes" Router with Phone-Home Features That Record IP, MAC Address

    Only the Netgear firmware can give you full Gigabit WAN speeds due to their proprietary method of Cut-Through-Forwarding. https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-WiFi-Routers/QoS-and-the-quot-Broadcom-Cut-Through-Forwarding-feature-quot/td-p/1080686 Last time I checked, third party firmware...

    Another Hijack Hole Found In Netgear Routers

    Excellent point - I was merely trying to point out that the "issue" noted in Megalith's so-called "news article" was addressed and fixed up already via those then-current firmware versions. Heck, read the item that I quoted from Megalith's own post and understand that is what I was providing a...

    Another Hijack Hole Found In Netgear Routers

    A little quick research would reveal that, yes, Netgear did release updated "stock" firmware that resolved the vulnerability for the devices that were identified as being vulnerable. So where is the actual news here? http://kb.netgear.com/000036386/CVE-2016-582384 <-- that is where you can find...

    Windows 8 Unlock Problem. Windows appear off-screen or between monitors. Heard of?

    To give a quick answer: I haven't seen this behavior yet myself. There is a chance that the behavior difference lies in the fact that I'm basing this observation on a mobile video solution from nVidia. However, I am also running DisplayFusion on the laptop. Perhaps you could download the trial...

    E6300 vs q6600 vs q9650

    Agreed. As stated, I just wanted share the rest of the differences as per the specs. You did not say anything "wrong" - and, in fact, were spot-on as you already know. ;)

    E6300 vs q6600 vs q9650

    Although I do agree with your advice, I would like to suggest a few modifications to your statement here: Clock speed & cache size are both different given that the Q6600 has 8MB L2 cache versus the Q9550's 12MB...

    Hi there! Saw your post about the eVGA 7900GT and artifacts on the screen. FWIW: I had an eVGA 7900GT that did the same thing. There is a BIOS hack and/or update for the card that addresses your problem. It can't hurt to give eVGA support an email or call about it. I think if you search...
