    Good backlit keyboard?

    To each his own I guess... About a year ago (maybe) less, I purchased the logitech G15, after about week of usage I gave it to a friend. The construction of the board looked like it was made by fisher price, and the keystrokes were "recoil spongy". By that I mean that the keys felt as though...

    Please Recommend Good Keyboard

    I second the Enermax Aurora recommendation, particularly if you like fast laptop style keys with good tactile feedback.

    Anyone used the new Logitech G9?

    I have the G9 and it is the best mouse I have ever owned. It is the one I prefer out of my Death Adder and G5 (2007). While I do like the G5, the scroll wheel is horrible IMO. It's not nearly as "liquid smooth" at the G9 (even with the click feature enabled). The Death Adder has a great...

    what is the best mousepad in everyone's opinion?

    I have to second this... I have tried 3 different pads so far (everglide, func, icemat). And the icemat wins hands down in terms of smoothness. The other pads are textured whereas the icemat isn't. So if you are using an optical mouse I would strongly recommend a non-textured surface like the...

    Tried VP191, back to CRT?

    Ah, I see. Man you guys must have some good eyes. The human eye can only detect up to 6ms in terms of blurriness on lcds. Although the 12ms is double that.. that is still tough to see. I can't see any of that. For the lcd has be slower than 20ms for me to see blurriness. Could be because I'm a...

    .AVIs and other videos not working on 2405fpw

    Go into MEDIA PLAYER not your display settings and go to Tools -> Options -> Performance Tab -> and at the bottom there is a video acceleration section. Turn it to None.

    Tried VP191, back to CRT?

    When you say "smoothness" were you running your crt and lcd at the exact same resolution? I only ask because people tend to run their crt's at a lower resolution than most lcd's native res. The "smoothness" is normally attributed to FPS, unless of course you have a slow lcd (higher than 16ms) in...

    .AVIs and other videos not working on 2405fpw

    The hardware acceleration is just with videos in media player. It has nothing to do with games or anything else. You did turn it off in the option in media player not your video card right? If not leave hardware acceleration on for your video card and turn it off in the options FOR media player...

    .AVIs and other videos not working on 2405fpw

    It's not your 2405 that is causing this. It is evident since it plays correctly in other media players. Go into your options and turn off hardware acceleration and that should resolve this issue (at least it did for me).

    Dell 2005FPW image burn-in

    Ahh.. good post. That very interesting. It might be a good idea to have your pc turn off the monitor when you are using it.

    Dell 2005FPW image burn-in

    I didn't think that was possible. You can find many sources on the web like this http://www.lcdtvbuyingguide.com/lcdtv/lcdtv-misconceptions.shtml that give a brief explanation as to how it is theoretically not possible.

    fUnc sUrface1030 vs Icemat 2nd edition

    Both mousepads are excellent buys. My roommate has the func (and older one tho) and I own the icemat. The best thing about both of these pads is that they don't warp. I have had 2 everglide pads warp on me inside of 6 months and I don't apply a lot of pressure on my mouse either. If you...

    New Logitech Laser Mouse!

    Yeah there is only a 400 dpi difference between the 518 and the G5 and you loose a button by going with the GF (2 buttons if you coun't the application switching button, which I never use). The other button on the side will be sorely missed though. Since it can be configured to use in a lot of...

    New Logitech Laser Mouse!

    Looks nice! Man I just bought the 518 too. I had to stop using my mx1000. After 6 months it was just too heavy for a heavy computer user. Good mouse if you use your computer casually. Too bad they didn't add the extra button on the side like they did with the 518.

    Gaming on Dell 2405FPW and HP L2335

    Personally when it comes to ANY lcd I would recommend a few things. 1. Dont bother playing xbox or ps2 on them. They don't run at the monitors native res. If you want to play a console I would wait for the ps3 or xbox 360 to come out. Since they are capable of displaying at 1080 res which is...

    2405 input lag

    Unfortunately, I don't have an xbox to test this. I do remember reading a while back that the xbox natively outputs at 480p which is significantly less than the monitors native res. If that theory is correct, that will explain the delay because the monitor has to scale the picture to it's native...

    2405 input lag

    I have the same problem with my 2405fpw as well. At first I had my MX1000 hooked up to it and could see lag on the desktop that was very annoying. I had to pull out my old intellimouse and it went away completely on the desktop, however there is still some lag and some screen tearing in Half...
