    Predictions on 6850 pricing?

    I'm looking to switch to a 6850 (I like the low power consumption as I'm now paying my own electricity and it's expensive, less power means less cooling). Do you think the prices will stick around the MSRP for the next few months or do you think there will be a drop in the near term? Want to...

    Acer Aspire One Tablet Mod

    Same thing happened on my Aspire One. Just open it up and re-seat the cable. It should be good to go.

    Is something going to happen around 2150? Doom 3, 2142... what else?

    A lot of games (and movies) seem to take place around 2150. My friend and I had thought up a more exhaustive list earlier, so I know there are more than those listed below. Doom 3 Battlefield 2142 Avatar, takes place in 2154 Anyone know when Quake 4 takes place? Any more that you can...

    Possible to approve individual packet?

    Is there are firewall that allows you to approve each packet which is incoming? I realize it seems kind of extreme, but this is for a machine that wouldn't be doing any web browsing so approving a new packet for each web page loaded wouldn't really be an issue. The only packets would be when...

    Windows Phone 7: Microsoft comitting suicide

    Microsoft looked at the iPhone and wanted to copy it's popularity. So, they looked at the differences between the iPhone and Windows Mobile that are the most obvious as viewed through the MS paradigm: 1. iPhone only sells Apps through the app store and otherwise doesn't let you install them...

    Kin is already dead.....

    That is a surprise. At least they quickly recognized it's a lost cause and didn't waste a lot of time trying to develop a concept that wasn't going anywhere. It is quite nuts when you consider this was to be the successor of the Danger. So their business plan: 1. Buy Danger, maker of the...

    MS Office Ultimate 2007 $60! 4 Days Left!

    This is back. I bought Office and one copy of 32 bit Windows 7 AND a copy of 64 bit Windows 7. YES, I realize the keys are interchangeable. But this way you can get two copies of Windows 7 Professional. An extra key for $30 will doubtless come in handy. Also Office 2010 is much better, and...

    A quick LCD mod - Great for Multimonitor Users!

    From about 18mm to 8mm (half inch to a quarter inch). Here are some (somewhat) better pictures. Sadly, this is as good as it gets with my cellphone camera. Comparing the old plastic bezel to the thin metal bezel. The rear of the monitor, I plan to paint the removable metal housing...

    A quick LCD mod - Great for Multimonitor Users!

    No, there's no risk of that. They're quite well hidden behind the metal shield. The risk of a toddler spilling something into the sensitive control circuits is the much more apparent danger.Unlikely, but the risk is somewhat greater without the plastic shield. If you do try it, report back...

    A quick LCD mod - Great for Multimonitor Users!

    Disclaimer: You may very well damage or destroy your monitor if you attempt this. Your monitor may be different and this may not even work for you. You have been warned. I recently have fallen back on a L90D+ 19" monitor while traveling, the FW900 is just too impractical. I quickly got tired...

    Nope, it is $9.99 on steam. But I am cheap so $5 would be better. :D

    WTB: Half Life 1, $5

    Hey, anyone have an old copy of HL1 they are not using any more? Also, I need a key not registered on steam. Of course, I'm not just buying the key, its just the key can't be registered on steam. PM me if you are selling.

    Metro Vacuum ED500 DataVac Electric Duster, Safe alternative to canned air?

    Or, if you are a hard core spendthrift. http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=11987759 At my local Walmart they sold for $6. About the price of one can of compressed air depending on where you're buying. Just put the slightly larger plastic nozzle on it (comes with it)...

    Dual power supply - does it work well

    Done, now a single power switch controls both PSUs. In this picture you see a wire splice on the internal AC line in the primary PSU (warranty already expired anyway) The whole thing working! Basically, the primary PSU has a power cord comming out of it with a PSU style plug on the...
