I have an MX Revolution I stopped using a while back because the rubbery bits started breaking down. The textured grip on the right side deteriorated to a sticky mess and the rubber center of the main mousewheel is disintegrating. With some rubbing alcohol I removed the coating from the right...

The comfort and convenience factor would keep me from ditching open-back cans. I bought my first pair of IEMs a couple years ago (Etymotic HF5) just for amazing noise isolation. If it was illegal to use them outside an airliner, they'd still be worth the money... but they fit like earplugs and...

There are KVM's that work over Cat-5/Ethernet. I work at a TV station that uses these, but they're quite expensive.

I've never seen a monitor stand like the one you're describing. Perhaps you could mount them vertically.

Personally, I'm perfectly content gaming on a 22 inch 1680x1050 IPS display... and I have the added benefit of getting higher settings out of an older GTX card since I'm driving fewer pixels. You might consider a monitor that favors color accuracy and viewing angle if you do things other than...

Description + Zoom I might buy a new keyboard, some passive speakers and a proper amp in the new year but I'm content with this at present.

192kps sounds pretty good compared to lossless, but if you can't tell the difference between 128 and 320, something is wrong with your hearing or you have crappy equipment. My stuff is firmly in "Mid-Fi" territory but I've migrated most of my music collection to FLAC. I have the space, I can...

Does the laptop function properly when in the 'stuck on' position?

I haven't had any great need for a laptop since I graduated from college, but I decided to pick up a 'new' toy this week, a VAIO X notebook. I bought it sight-unseen and you really don't fully grasp how thin it is until you hold it.

Certain VAIO S and Z models have compatible docking stations.

VGA ports are quite useful on portable machines. Just about every projector in existence has a VGA input... that can't be said for HDMI. I don't see anything wrong with optical drives either... the DVD won't be dead for a while. Sony put out several 11 inch notebooks with them... still quite...

Last year I upgraded from TN to IPS panels. Same size screens but it was still a very worthwhile upgrade... much better color and viewing angles.

I used to have a pair of those monitors... good screens.

I use the included mesh filters with my P180 case. I clean a healthy coat of dust off them weekly. They don't catch the finest particulate dust but they get nearly everything else. Six months after a total cleaning, the case interior still looks quite good. I much prefer rinsing a couple...
