    What do you use your tablet for?

    Shoppers Fume Over Sears' $69 iPad Ad Mistake

    I wished Sears would not have tried to be Amazon-esque. They used to be easy to find products and see if they were available locally, now it's very hard to do that.

    What Do You Want from Windows 8?

    I want Windows 8 to have the same layout of the Control Panel and various other settings that Windows XP has. They added more clicks and complicated a lot simple tasks when they re-arranged a lot of things in Vista and carried the bad layout right on over to Windows 7. And yes, I am still using...

    Need help setting up CPU & DDR3 for best performance

    Turns out it's a moot point. Foxconn has a setting for mem freq but all that is available auto and 800mhz and the auto freq defaults to 800mhz. Although there is all kinds of timing settings available when SPD is disabled. Thanks again.

    Intel G31 Int vs. Radeon X550

    The Gigabyte G31 was defective, so I changed my mind and have decided to just go with an Intel branded G41 motherboard, using it for the video and retiring the X550. Thanks for the replies.

    Intel G31 Int vs. Radeon X550

    I've got an older pc(amd sempron s754) that has developed boot problems(I went through the usual troubleshooting steps, including replacing some parts, like the psu, etc.) and determined the motherboard is on its way out after three years or so of use(it's a TUL brand).

    Firefox 3.5.1 Update is Now Available for Download

    I wish they would fix the "allow all passwords to be saved" bug(every time FF updates since 3, I lose the ability to save my PayPal PW).
