the 10% off coupon you can print from that PDF via the post office does work. They just scan the coupon then scan the card. Oh, Cumberland (Georgia) store has the cards on the floor, you just have to find them. In the video card section they put over stock on the top top shelf (reachable)...

I had NewEgg remove my personal information from their site. After watching card prices get jacked to the levels they did all they showed me is a willingness to screw over long time customers for tha almighty buck. Too bad they get a pass on this site because they advertise so much here.

I already have decided never to buy from these fools again. They are running higher than MSRP prices in order to abuse their customers. Fortunately many other sites have popped up since NewEgg came along that offer fairer pricing. Newegg used to be the place to be, but now they are just...

Pretty sad state of affairs when Newegg is so willing to exploit the pricing so much. I figure the site admins aren't going to chime in simply because Newegg advertises here so much, but they are no longer "gamer" or "enthusiast" friendly anymore

Crucial was also selling 2x2 kits for 199

Simple, unless they perform like 8800GTs they cannot be priced like one. Meaning when that 256mb 8800GT comes along ATI better hope these cards of theirs perform better. Claiming your card is better because of price is silly, benchmark it and prove that price and performance are both clearly...

I need something stupid simple. I want to be able to resize pictures as well as play with the JPEG quality so I can save them small enough for web pages and the like. I found Imagewell but are there ways to do this with my native OS X software?

Well I picked my A3 up yesterday. I have it hooked up to a Phillips 47" 1080i projection HDTV. My TV only has component connections but the picture is nothing short of fantastic. Fortunately I have both types of players and enough connections to stop/pause each at similar scenes to see...

mine is an older 1080i from phillips (47 projection 16x9)

since my tv is older it only has component in. can I actually use that for HD DVD?

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8494435&productCategoryId=abcat0102004&type=product&id=1186003898783 add it to your cart to see price I just wish I could find seven movies I actually want... where it LOTR?

Except when she made that reply they had none in stock.

Its just proof their online system is not integrated into their warehouse properly. The fact they are shipping orders made one way over another probably means that online orders are going through a clearing process which involves someone approving them .... who isn't doing it on a timely basis...

One of the MWAVE reps responsded on their forums to some of irate customers claiming that they were filling orders - unfortunately for her too many of us know they only filled orders at the higher price and jacked all those who got the right price - the first price. Funny how on forums around...

As if anyone needed proof to what MWAVE was up to? They simply did not fill any orders placed early for the RIGHT price. They charged all those people that ordered over the net, took the items they paid for and turned around selling them at a much higher price. Basically bait and switch with...

Got to love NewEgg for JACKING THEIR PRICES too eh? Sorry, they are just opportunist who were lucky enough to have stock. Some cards have risen forty bucks on their site since release. Go figure.

Well this thread gave me pause, with the new processors just around the corner I think I will wait. The new C2Ds that are coming look very good. Are the new quads true quads or more of what we already have now?

Looking at mostly use for gaming, go for the fast dual core (2.6) or get a quad core (2.4) ?

Cancelled my order with MWAVE. Seems they too only filled later orders which were at a higher price. Go figure. They charged my card when I place the order, within minutes. They then did not reply to ANY email I sent until I told them I was going to have my bank do a charge back unless I...

Only takes a screw up on something big to ruin the name of a small fry like them. Looks like they are going to get a lashing for shitty customer no-service. Sorry, but these thieves charged my card within minutes (my online banking shows both date AND time) of my order (possible clock...

Must be nice. Jerks charged me for the card and haven't replied to one mail (using their forms) that I have sent. As such I told them via their webform to cancel it or my bank will do a chargeback (and yes my bank will do so without cost to me - their policy is that if the merchant charges...

Well I have a 370w (some super brand - forget - variant of sparkle) with two HDDs + CD so I am going to just go with that. Already have a guy at work in a stock dell with one... if he can do it I am pretty safe. Still will be buying a pre-built game machine soon ... whats it take to SLI...

so besides a new background, a new reflective dock, and a new top bar what I was supposed to notice? Folders on my dock? Yawn. Time Machine - Yawn - why? Because its dumb. Change to my mail file and it will back it ALL up again. Change to a VM - same thing. Change to movie - oh...

and no customer service! Two great marks for Microcetner :D

Even with the COSTCO name behind it?

I was really close to buying a system from MainGear, but stopped at their processor upgrades $293 for a Q6600? HELL NO. Their other component prices are in line with their competition, their processor prices are a joke. (was going to build a Prelude)

Hell I ordered at 12:03pm (EASTERN) , a few minutes after it appeared on their website, and I still don't have a ship confirmation. Checking their site shows that it has not shipped. I haven't purchased from mwave in a few years, so the likely hood of doing so again requires the card being...

I have held out as long as I thought warrated, was actually going to buy a 320mb GTS when I heard that these cards (8800gt) would hard launch in October... I am replacing my trusty and very good 7600GT. I actually have three machines with variations of that card, my main has a PCI version...

will find out, ordered one..

I am getting leopard on Monday (Amazon free ship for $109 - figure the twenty plus bucks I saved is worth a few days). anyway, I am going to install bootcamp. I saw that a leopard feature is being able to resize the partitions (even create them) on the fly. As such. Can I use an original...

The 8800gt states PCI Express 2.0 ... I have an old MSI board using 6150 and 430 chipsets from Nvidia. It has a PCI Expressx16 lane... but no where in the documentation does it give a revision number. Should I be worried? I would have to finally upgrade from a 7600GT only to find I need...

anyone using something like HP's media vault? Basically it is a home network storage device.

something simple to host a laser printer (its a windows only printer and I would like to print to it from my iMac), serve my iTunes music to all my machines, and hold files. Pre built systems are ok if you know of some place with one.... perhaps one of the thin dells? I have a game...

if it does not have movable parts then it should be a little more reliable. I am on my third disk version in four years or so. The problem I cause my iPod's is that I ride a motorcycle on long trips and it doesn't like that. As in, don't even dare jog with them.... and if they pop out and...

Actually has anyone had XP crash or Vista crash on a Mac machine? The primary reason Mac OS X appears so stable is that they don't have to worry about all those 3rd party drivers crashing the system. My two "windoze" machines have never crashed in all the time I owned them or had any other...

Yeah, if your PC system uses AMD don't render with it. My laptop can rip/encode DVDs faster than my desktop (C2D 2.0 laptop 4200rpm drive versus 4400X2 10K drive) I haven't tried my iMac - but I think I will as I have been told that handbrake is easy enough for dummies like me

provided you don't play in window mode then you have to and beat the tar out of OS X so it quits stealing function keys and mouse buttons. I had to patch just to get F14/F15 back from my silly iMac.

Amazon has OS X 10.5 for $109 shipped. 2 day shipping is only nine bucks to where I live.

Get a multibutton mouse, like from Logitech Other than that, gaming on a laptop is just fine. You could try some add ons and macros to simplify in game operations to minimize any impact from the keyboard layout or feel

I remember reading this forum and seeing different builders mentioned, outside of VM I don't recall many of them. Which were good, bad, indifferent.
