Update: the Sansdisk SSD was a great low cost choice. Used SuperDuper to clone everything over (Disk utility was nagging me about some weird error). Test boot worked great (and much faster). Swapped out drive this morning and surprised the wife! Thanks again fellas!

Thanks for the tips! I walked over to Bestbuy at lunch and snagged a 240GB Sansdisk for $82. I hate shopping at BB but I had a $20 giftcard from work so that helped bring the price down and make it a no brainer!

I'm sure this has been asked over and over, but SSDs are getting better and better every few months. Long story short, I need to replace my wife's 500GB 5400rpm drive. The MBPro is in great condition, it's just the harddrive is slow as hell. This is for a MacBookPro9.2 (mid 2012 model)...

Thanks for the ideas! I never thought of the emulator on this machine before. I to have a fan controller and normally have that running at higher speeds when I'm encoding videos or recording some multi track guitar parts in Garage Band (while playing along to multiple tracks). I'll look on...

Looking to do some light gaming on my 2011 MBA. Basic stats are 256GB hdd, 4GB or RAM, 1.7GHz i5., and a Intel HD3000 w 386mb. This is not a gaming machine, I know that for sure. I feel like this thing overheats just encoding videos in iMovie 90% of the time. I'm just looking for something...

I checked for a firmware upgrade and couldn't locate it before. I'll dig into it again later today and see if I find anything.

Kind of a noob question but it's a unique situation. My office has a Netgear router that has built in Sprint LTE service as a backup/failsafe for when we have fundraising events. The back of the router has 2 spot for antennas. 1 for the LTE and 1 for the wireless component of the Router...

bump for a legit skin!

I'm waiting a while for at least a couple of releases before upgrading my 5S. There isn't anything special that really helps my phone in regards to new features so waiting to see what happens to everyone else first is ok with me.

Super noob question here. I have a SOL Republic set of headphones that I plug directly into my controller to hear the game sound while I play. They are iPhone compatible and have the 3.5mm jack and was wondering if all I needed to buy was the headset adapter for the controller or if I needed...

I do but decided to grind my warlock to start out with and get a feel for the story and game. I plan to start a hunter soon and will probably use the boost for that character!

Just starting out in Destiny now. I have a warlock at lvl 16 (almost 17) and have the same problems as most of you guys. I'm a casual player but I would like to knock out a few main quest story lines and raids in a fireteam here and there. Gametag is: turb0nix I don't have a set schedule of...

I haven't used Bing Rewards in years. Thanks for the reminder!

Thanks for the heads up! I'll keep my tabs on it and snag one when the time looks right. $40 is better than $60 any day for sure. Cheers!
