    Stuck trying to fix 24" Core 2 iMac - Any ideas?

    Sounds like the 24" Aluminum iMacs don't have socketed desktop processors, so the e5200 wouldn't work. You'll need a mobile processor it would seem...

    $45 Unlimited BYOP GSM Service for ATT / Tmobile

    I have been waiting for something like this for the longest time: being able to buy an iPhone and put it on a prepaid carrier with 3G speeds. Unfortunately, the Sprint iPhone came first (cheapest postpaid option for me)...but oh well. I just ported 2 lines over from Sprint and the process was...

    iphone 4 sim + upgrade question

    I work at an AT&T reseller and we do this all the time. We'd just upgrade and activate the iPhone 4 on her line, call up AT&T and tell them to do an upgrade swap with your line. They might need the IMEI and ICC ID (from the SIM card) to switch them back, but like jayx9 mentioned, as long as...

    Apple MBP 13in vs. HP Envy 14

    I had the MacBook Pro 13" before the most recent refresh and I really enjoyed that machine. I sold it right before the refresh to get maximum value out of it and I was contemplating moving up to a 15" MacBook Pro because of the higher resolution screen. Then the Envy 14 was detailed a couple...

    Post Your Workstation 2009!

    I think there's been discussion on the Voodoo forum that the back vent is actually meant as a cool air intake since the case is chambered and there isn't really any cool air coming from anywhere else for the top chamber.

    Post Your Workstation 2009!

    Like I said...it's just the case, but what a case! I was originally planning on buying a Blackbird after I graduated from college this year and saved up some money, but seeing as how HP Voodoo has declined to put i7 procs in the Blackbird and killed it, I had to jump on the opportunity to buy...

    HP Firebird with VoodooDNA

    Looks like here's some more in-depth information about the Firebird with a video: http://thenextbench.com/t5/Blog/A-New-Bird-Has-Landed/ba-p/24776#A629 Looks like an interesting computer to say the least. I was intrigued by the price of the machine. I thought it cost too much for what...

    Spy Photos

    Appears this thing will be for sale in a couple of days: http://www.crunchgear.com/2009/01/05/bfg-techs-new-phobos-high-end-system-looks-amazing/ Doesn't look too bad. Though it will be weird to see BFG sell whole computers. Interesting to see the use of a GTX 285 for PhysX use only.

    Assume TheBlueChanell is a scammer until he posts in here

    I was the guy he referenced buying the 2 4850's for $250. I received the cards in a timely manner, however, I have had similarly questionable circumstances regarding the invoices for the cards. I bought two Visiontek 4850's from him and bought them with the understanding that they came with the...
