    Logitech G604 but with more side buttons?

    I use every single side button on my G604. I also use it with profiles so each button can do a specific thing in whatever application I'm in. Does anyone know of any other mouse besides the MMO geared ones that have more than six side buttons?

    Logitech mice users what is your DPI set at for normal desktop use?

    Currently mine is set at 3050 but whenever I go up higher it seems that it's harder to control the mouse down to specific/precise movements like getting it into a small box such as the x/close on browser windows.

    Does the Dell U2410 have blurry text due to AG?

    I bought two U2410s. I am coming from a Dell 2405FPW. I hated the 2405's black crush problem. On this forum I move my head a few inches and the color shifts from black to grey. I honestly got used to it and it doesn't bother me anymore. I also have a 2001FP which I believe uses an IPS...

    Can't get to Newegg.com

    It seems that my DNS is jacked up. I have two DCs that do DNS/DHCP but for whatever reason I can't get to Newegg. If I use my Verizon iPhone's 3G I'm able to get there. Any ideas what I might be looking for? I don't see anything weird in the DNS events.

    Does anyone know if iPhone 5 when reverting to CDMA will do simultaneous voice/data?

    Right now the iPhone 4 and 4S on Verizon cannot do both data and voice at the same time. It is either or. It looks like with the iPhone 5 it will be able to do voice/data at the same time since it will use LTE for data and CDMA-EVDO for voice. I'm wondering what happens when there is no LTE...

    Cooling a server room 10x10

    It's probably 10x10 or maybe 10x15. But it's a relatively small makeshift server room that also houses a refrigerator and a water heater. I know, I know, obviously not great for housing a server but it's really not my call. I can only make recommendations but if they don't take me up on it...

    Dell T310 with an i3 vs Xeon?

    Is it even worth while to go with something like an i3 if the server is replacing a ML330 that hosts an application and also as a file server. It is connected to a domain but is not a dc. It's really basic and we do not see any need to run VMWare or any other type of virtualization software on...

    Can't resolve a single host name with Win Server 2008R2 DNS but can using FQDN

    Any idea why this would happen? I created a new host (A) record and when I try to use IE9 or Chrome, it just searches the net instead of resolving the actual host. If I use FireFox, it resolves the single host name. In all 3, if I use the FQDN, it will resolve properly. NSLOOKUP resolves...

    I see there is a 4-port gigabit Intel NIC and in one review he or she says that they have it setup through AD trunking and are getting 450MB/s through their pipe. Is this type of setup best used when using a NAS or SAN that uses iSCSI to help speed up file transfers?
