    *HOT* ASUS Eee PC 1000HE(Blue) $349 @ZZF

    Yeah, it's back in stock and of course.. as I said, it's back to 379.99. I've been checking back infrequently since this thread waiting for it to come back up for 349.99, as soon as it was available again it was for 379.99. I swear ZZF does that crap so you'll watch an item or browse their...

    *HOT* ASUS Eee PC 1000HE(Blue) $349 @ZZF

    Notify Me! ...lol. I'm waiting for a hotdeal on a netbook, but they all seem to be not-so-hot. Once this is back in stock, expect ZZF's typical raising of the price. It will go back to 379.99, or 399.99.

    MSI U120 Netbook (10", 160gb HD, 6 Cell) - $310 w/free shipping

    Well, it's 329 now. The question remains though, is it upgradeable to 2GB or not? OP says no, second post says yes... that's the deal breaker for me, 2GB or not 2GB. (Har Har.)

    Wow, logitech support is great!

    Yeah, Logitech's customer service is superior to to any other manufacturer I've had to deal with. Had the model before the Z-5500 of speakers and the remote just stopped working. Without the remote, the entire speaker set up is rendered useless. I called them and spoke with them, they asked for...

    Desperate need of help, Vista 64 Ult + 4870.

    Nah, it's not a bad video card. There's a 20+ page thread on AMD/ATI's own forums with users complaining of the exact same problem. AMD even admits the video cards are not faulty / defective and it's a driver issue (on their end) w/ Vista. Microsoft even has several knowledge database entries...

    Desperate need of help, Vista 64 Ult + 4870.

    I found a 22 page forum thread on AMD's own forums regarding this issue. It dates back over a year, almost two. No fix, just acknowledgement from AMD that it's their fault. Has something to do with monitor EDID's, DVI and DVI's frequency. There's no real fixes for it that don't cause you to...

    Desperate need of help, Vista 64 Ult + 4870.

    I just did another fresh Vista install. This time I'm getting all of the updates provided by Microsoft then I'm going to try installing just the raw video driver. (The other times I've tried to install the raw video driver have been AFTER I've tried to install Catalyst.) Believing Catalyst may...

    Desperate need of help, Vista 64 Ult + 4870.

    Last night, I had to format due to messing up my uxtheme.dll file. Up until that point, I haven't had ANY video problems (I've been set up since September 08 and running fine.) Anyways... I formatted last night and reinstalled Vista 64 Ultimate. The install took fine, everything installed...

    HELP! My (good) system is EXTREMELY laggy

    Yeah, those results point to a failing drive. Contact Seagate customer support (have the drive model and serial number ready, sometimes they require a tentative date of purchase as well) and let them know what's going on and report the Seatools results to them. I've had Seagate send me a brand...

    A budget of $1370 for EVERYTHING...what have you?

    If your "speakers and stuff" are going to cost more than "$60 or so", why don't you list what you intend to buy for "speakers and stuff" so that the actual budget you have remaining for PC parts is known? Otherwise, don't expect us to sit here and throw builds at you while you put more...

    HELP! My (good) system is EXTREMELY laggy

    If you think it's your HDD, why not test it? There's utilities out there to test every manufacturer of HDD. It's easier to start eliminating possible causes than it is to look for a needle in a haystack. Get the latest version of SeaTools at...

    Help me with my midrange build

    I've been following this thread for a bit, and I still feel knock the motherboard down and up the video card to a 4850 with a 24" monitor, your choice though. In the end, if you disagree -- hindsight is always 20/20. ;)
