    Yamakasi "tempered glass" models

    I've got one- no AG coating under the glass that I can detect. Works fine although periodically I have to switch it to alternative DVI operational mode (ATI Catalyst) to get rid of green blockness which I suspect is more an issue with the video card than the monitor. Mine had no bad pixels...

    [Hot] PowerColor HD 7870 MYST. Ed. 2GB + Bioshock & Tombraider - $209 (no rebate!)

    Of course it goes down right after I buy... Warning, there are issues with the card esp with BF3- check forums for BSOD issues. Also, reviews on Newegg are being edited/witheld so I wouldn't go by the reviews there- the newegg of old seems to be gone..

    Hi, Where are you at? Can you estimate shipping to 01463 (MA) for the monitor? Thanks.

    Battlefield 10th anv sale BF3 $10 Today only

    Not even a year in and it's going for $10? About what it's worth IMHO- it marked the death of a great franchise.

    Dell U3011 $849.99 at BestBuy

    I have been looking at 30" monitors- is there a reason (beyond being new) to grab one of the 3011 models over the HP 3065, Dell 3007, etc? I am not able to see any of these in person and reviews of the same don't seem to provide much beyond the obvious as far as the differences. I believe they...

    BF3 20 bucks on Origin

    This- loved 1942, Vietnam and Bf2- even really liked BFBC2. BF3 I've left unplayed after a few weeks. Maps suck, dynamics suck, it's just not fun. Completely ruined the franchise- BF was really the only game I played. Good news- lots of free time now and I won't even consider buying BF4...

    WD MyBook Elite 1tb USB 2.0 at Costco for $49.99

    Ha! When we were members we always called it the $200 club since we'd go in there for some great deal and never came out with less than a $200 bill:)

    Samsung 2tb External (with HD204UI) 90 bucks

    Not sure where you got this from- link is to someplace else (WTF?) and the promo code is no good on newegg. From an old flyer or ???

    Good sound card?

    If you can wait a few weeks I would suggested the ODAC (http://nwavguy.blogspot.com/) which is essentially a VERY high quality USB soundcard will come out for right around $100. The performance of this is supposed to be along the lines of the very finest audio equipment- 24 bit encoding, 192khz...

    ASUS P8P67 DELUXE refurbished 87.99 shipped

    I own one of these (not refurbished) and it's now sitting in the closet replaced by a Gigabyte. It was such a tremendous POS with arbitrary reboots, drives it would and wouldn't work with, a TERRIBLE layout (basically impossible to get SATA drives attached) and a BIOS which wouldn't work...

    Amazon: Asus P8P67 Rev3.1 $89.42AR + FS

    It is FAR AND AWAY the worst board I've ever encountered- the SATA ports are horizontal, stacked and pushed up to where the drive bays are so it's impossible to do anything with the board installed yet the cables get pushed out if try and put the board back in your case after having installed...

    Looking for good headphones

    If you are using them for travel as well wouldn't you prefer buds since they block the noise (crying babies, jet engines, etc)? If you want another pair of open air then you might consider the Grado 60 or 80 as they are under $100 and sound great. If you are concerned about sound quality a Fiio...

    college laptop?

    My daughter has a Hannspree SN12 (under 300 from Newegg) which she hooks up to a 24" monitor and wireless keyboard when she's in her room. Best of both worlds.... I also added an external (powered) drive and she backs up all her stuff onto that. The laptop is small enough so it doesn't weigh...

    Hannspree SN12

    I use VLC (Ubuntu) and have no problem with 720 or 1080p. Watched top gear just today. I don't see why streaming netflicks wouldn't work either.
