    WTB: Cheap Laptop for college

    Hi, I'm looking to buy a relatively cheap, used laptop for my brother when he returns to college in late August (he spilled water/beer on his old one while it was on, a no-no). He doesn't need much, the old one had a Pentium 3 933mhz processor with either 256 or 512MB memory, with Windows XP. I...

It doesn't have Internet access (wireless) but the FAQ says that you can just install and run the client on one computer and then change it to another. I tried...

    Running a Server-noob

    My mate wants to run a server for a Steam game, although he's not sure which. He has enough upload for a 14 person server (700kb/s) but he doesn't have an extra computer to run it on. I have an extra old computer and I'm wondering if it would be good enough to run a server (a relatively stable...

    FS: PSP

    I have a PSP for sale. It has firmware version 2.01, never been updated at all. I got this a year ago but I really have basically never used it, at all.

He insists that his card is SOOO much better than mine because of...

    How to maximize performance with a weird(ish) setup

    All right, I am going to be trying to upgrade my parents' Dell to get it to run faster. Right now it has 4x256 MB DDR2-400 sticks (the mobo supports DDR2-400 or DDR2-533). Which way would be fastest? Get 1GB stick DDR2-400 (cuz 533 would just run at 400, right?) and have 1.75 GB with 1GB in...
