    Corsair Obsidian 550d?

    Yeah, I'll go for it and give that a try, too. Currently the H60 is up top with the stock 120 as a rear exhaust, because why not. :D Noticing that with quiet fans inside the case and the case under my desk on a hardwood floor, the noise level difference is pretty minimal between top on/top...

    Corsair Obsidian 550d?

    I also got mine from Amazon two days ago, and spent a few hours pulling everything out of the P182 and dropping it into the 550D. Very happy with the case, especially the cable routing options, the design, and the general thought put into it! Gives me the old Lian-Li feel in a good way. :D Also...

    Saints Row The Third - PC Steamworks for $39.99 from Amazon

    I didn't bother using the downloader software - just running into the 'my game keys' or whatever let me grab the key and punch it straight into Steam!

    Droid 3

    Yeah, I've had a rooted droid since day 1, and I hardly ever use the keyboard. The best part about is is controlling arcade games. :\

    Total War: Shogun 2 $39.99 PC DL Amazon

    Yeah, that was what I was basing what I said off of. Also when I hit the 'see all titles this applies to' button, it brings up a page of Amazon DL-stuff. Kinda related, Crysis 2 is on there for $52 - $15 credit. $37's not too far off of the D2D price from before... though this not being...

    Total War: Shogun 2 $39.99 PC DL Amazon

    No, but the odds are pretty much nil - everything about the promo mentions 'download version.' $28ish for the download version is kind of a screaming deal for this, though!

    warm! Microcenter DotD MC branded Sandforce 64GB SSD 89.99 no rebates! B&M only

    They yanked the firmware a week or so ago, and are supposed to be releasing a 3.4.4 firmware on the site soon (per some comments on the anandtech forums about it).

    Microcenter G2 SSD 64gb open box deal

    Ah no, you definitely lose it if the drives themselves are RAIDed - the Intel RST fix was for if your drives are on an Intel controller that also has a RAID (i.e. 2x RAID1 1TB Drives + 1 SSD boot drive = no TRIM on boot drive, the driver fix corrected that so that the SSD will still get TRIM...

    crysis 2 pre-order up! $50

    I haven't heard anything indicating Crysis 2 is Steamworks - if nothing else, EA hasn't published anything non-Valve that is, have they?

    Eset NOD32 v4 3 user $29.99 with free ship @ egg

    whoa - yeah, it's dead again on Amazon. :( The link I used goes somewhere else now, and Amazon's 2-3 week page went from $30 -> $55 today.

    Eset NOD32 v4 3 user $29.99 with free ship @ egg

    FWIW, looks like you can still place orders from Amazon, though it's OOS - it just says ships in 2-3 weeks instead liiiike so

    Acer Aspire Timeline Core i3 1.2GHz 12" Laptop $512

    My girlfriend got a 3820TG 14" off of Amazon (this thing) around Thanksgiving for $800 - it had the 2.53GHz i5m and a 5650, basically an Envy 14 without the 16x9 LED screen option. That thing seriously impresses me - looks and feels awesome, lasts pretty much forever on battery, and seems to be...

    What is more important in your smartphone purchase?

    Not even that, really... it's just Activesync. Exact same protocol a WinMo phone or an iPhone uses to sync with Gmail (or Exchange, at that). It'd pretty much have to be either Google's servers having problem, or your phone's entire Internet connection having a problem. Phone-wise, maybe if...

    What is more important in your smartphone purchase?

    For a), I've just been sharing multiple calendars with my primary account.. it lets me view/edit all of the calendars from my phone, and enable/disable them individually. Not sure if there's native support for multiple calendars or not, though - simply never tried. :D For b), I'm agreeing...
