    Logitech G27 = $149.99 at BB

    No i did not, It was at one of their terminals that they have throughout the store. I'm not going to buy the wheel at $300, but I will at $150, therefore I didn't feel like causing a scene at the register.

    Logitech G27 = $149.99 at BB

    BB in the colony has one, but at the normal price. If anyone can pick one up for me at the good price I'll gladly pay shipping and a little extra on top! Posted via [H] Mobile Device

    Data recovery software

    So far I have tried Recuva and Active@ file and partition recovery. No luck yet. Any other suggestions? I am thinking that I am going to revert back to when she got a new computer a few months ago, those HDDs are still intact.

    Data recovery software

    Ok, so mom ended up reinstalling the OS on her laptop after Vista SP2 corrupted the boot sector. During the reinstall (expanding files specifically) she called me to ask how she could get here data back (it was not backed up). I told her to stop whatever the computer was doing and send me the...

    ** A Picture I Took - 2009 **

    Sorry if I missed it earlier, but what camera do you have? I ask because the RAWs from my 50D can only be processed in Lightroom 2. As far as cropping, use software, LR2 can also do many more great things as well.

    No but my second monitor I purchased a year after the first has a much cooler color than the first. FWIW, I run my backlight at 30%, 100% burns my retinas!

    I had the no wakeup problem, turns out that the monitor cable that you get when you buy your monitor went bad on me and stopped working all together. I bought one from monoprice and have not had the issue return.

    Recommend me a laptop

    I bet they are. Get yourself a laptop with a Quadro or FireGl card. That will be your best bet for CAD work. They will also play games, of course not as well as a gaming card, but not bad at all. I loose about 10 frames playing games on my softmodded 8800GTX. Lenovo has their T61p and W...

    Recommend me a laptop

    My 8800GTX gave me 1 FPS with Solidworks 2007-2009 until I soft modded it. The thing with gaming cards is that it is a crapshoot if it will work with solidworks. Now if you are set on using "real view", you will have to use an OpenGl type card.

    Recommend me a laptop

    For Solidworks I highly suggest a professional video solution, (i.e. Nvidia Quadro or ATI Fire GL), a gaming card (i.e. Nvidia Geforce or ATI Radeon) is simply inadequate. Given this, I highly suggest a Lenovo W series laptop, they are a bit on the costly side, but you get what you pay for. I...

    Lenovo T500 or HP HDX16t?

    I am a huge Lenovo fan. I currently use a T61p with 1920 x 1200 rez on a 15.4" widescreen. I know that that resolution seems appealing to you know, but I urge you to find someone who has a laptop with that resolution and screen size for you to spend some time on. There are two issues running...

    Wow, logitech support is great!

    Yeah Logitech is great about taking care of their customers. Be forewarned, don't take advantage of the situation, or we will all loose their awesome replacement policy. Also, their high dollar items, they require you to send them in in order to get a replacement.

    Designing Logitech’s G-series Peripherals

    All my Logi stuff works great. I have no problem plopping down my heard earned cash on their new products. With that said, I find it hard to believe that they still hand file their prototype models. After all with this day and age of computing, drawing a 3D model in the computer to a...

    If you correctly solder the wires to the pins they will hold. I've used this method wiring our FSAE racecar. It works on AMP, WeatherPak, Deutsch, etc.. connectors. In the event you do not have a crimper, this is acceptable practice. But if you can wait, crimp.

    Very small pair of needle nose pliers, and a lot of patience. You might also want to try and solder the wire and pin once you have them crimped. I never trust a crimped joint without using crimpers.

    Antec 1200 users - How loud is the case?

    With stock fans all on high, it is still quieter than a 2U server! I highly recommend the case, but beware, even without anything in it, it is heavy. I have just about decided to build a new PC for LANing. Lugging around my 100 lb beast is getting tiresome.

    Antec 1200 case owners.

    Higher fluid velocities are turbulent, not laminar. At any rate, any airflow coming out of a fan is going to be turbulent. Turbulent air will also increase your convection coefficients. Just remember, for air cooling, flow as much air as fast as you can. You can almost never go overboard...

    I've set my brightness to "30". I still get the burn-in. Not too overly concerned, these monitors are going to go to work with me and I'll get a new set for home. Maybe some 27" or 30"ers.

    What about the "realistically lower part"? In my opinion a 50% decrease in flowrate is not "realistically lower". At any rate I was trying to inform him of the error in his logic, not try and insult him. I applaud anyone who wants to build things based on their own thoughts, dreams and...

    Hate to rain on your parade but, running two fans in series the CFM will not add (unless you are compressing the air, which you are not, don't even think about it). So you are going to be flowing 133*3 CFM through the radiator. Another interesting thing to note is that a fan pulling on a...

    TI-Nspire vs TI-89 Titanium for Physics

    I am an Engineering senior. The single most useful tool I have is that 89 Ti calculator. It will do unit conversions, symbolic integration and differentiation, summation......just about everything, pass on the N-spire and get an 89 or a 200.

    Where did the Pure demo go?

    Disable v-sync. You have to do so within your video card control panel. There is no v-sync option in the game.
