    Is this HTPC Overkill?

    Yeah that is pretty much my thought. With all the different codecs and audio/video formats, there is nothing better then a PC...

    Yep, it was doing the back end processing for my XBOX360.

    Is this HTPC Overkill?

    I have an old Pentium 4 3.73HT. It's the max my motherboard supports. My PC really isn't the main issue. I can watch most 1080p rips, just without AAC 5.1. The main issue is, I am tired of the limited codec support through my Xbox Media Extender. A HTPC will put a stop to that... I've...

    Is this HTPC Overkill?

    My current system is too old to upgrade the CPU... Are there any reputable companies that offer custom built systems and good value?

    Is this HTPC Overkill?

    My PC is struggling with 1080p and I am getting tired of codec issues with Xbox360 media extender. I'm really drawn to this unit, but if I select all options it gets close to $4000... :eek: http://www.endpcnoise.com/cgi-bin/e/fanless_htpc.html I don't mind the idea of paying a bit more...

    Where Can I Get Black Keys for My Mechanical Keyboard?

    Holy Crap! That Dell AT101W is identical, that is awesome..I might just buy that and takeoff the dell logo. I wonder if everything underneath is the same too? Although, for the cost, I might just be better off getting something newer...

    Where Can I Get Black Keys for My Mechanical Keyboard?

    I have a couple of these granite Silicon Graphics keyboards... I have been thinking about updating its look by going black. I just can't seem to find any place to buy black keys... They use an Alps mechanical switch. For those who like Mechanical Keyboards, these are really...

    They're really not that expensive, and there are good deals out there. The only thing that is ridiculously expensive is the ram. A 400Mhz with 1gb of ram can run $400-500 bucks. I am really picky, and I got this mint condition one for $250, and it's 350Mhz and has 256mb of ram. Combined with...

    Where Can I Get One of These?

    Its an Alienware case. They had terrible customer service. but... They are now owned by Dell, so I don't expect customer service to be any help what so ever, at all.

    My New Chair...

    I mostly got it for nostalgia value. It's crazy that my machine cost over $40,000+ in 2004. I also wanted to learn a unix based system and do a little graphic editing, but mostly I wanted to discover some neat things can be done.

    My New Chair...

    Maybe, but it would take along time to polish the frame of a standard one, if it can even be done. I don't know if I would want to pay almost a $1000 for a chair, and then immediately take power tools to it as soon as it arrives.

    Nothing very exciting for most around here. It is a Silicon Graphics Octane2. It is a Unix machine, the OS is called Irix. That is what is running on the left most monitor. SGI has a tremendous history, but it all went down in flames in the last decade or so. Its kinda sad actually. I...

    What do you guys think about the new Alienware case design?

    Well, its all Dell now. No Thanks. It looks like my next PC will be from Falcon Northwest and they have been venting out the top for years. So long Alienware... Its been a good run.

    Well, I got all the bells and whistles so it was just under $1300.00. If I was going to pay a thousand for a chair I wanted it to look like it. So, I got the extra polished aluminum frame and leather arms. but, you can get a basic one for around $750.00. I got it at sit4less.com. They...
