Xoleras, good points. I worked at Diamond MM (Modem group) back in the 90's. I actually worked for Supra Corporation (Modems for Amiga, Commodore and Mac back then) and we were acquired. I also worked for USRobotics in the late 90's.
Keep in mind that employees come and go, and the...

All good dude and you make great points. If I'm going to drop some cash on something, I want to have some support from the company that made it. And I hope that Galaxy chimes in here sometime soon to give people an...
Good question (and response). There are two ways to look at it. From the AIB side and from the NV side.
From the NVIDIA (or AMD) side of things, there are a number of factors. Trying to own the entire system takes a lot of work, time and money. You need everything from a chipset R&D...
So we went from ALL CAPS to swearing every other word.. I guess if you can't get your point across successfully, try a new tactic..
Read the thread closer. There never was a Galaxy NA office. There was a rep firm that may have called themselves that unofficially, but they had zero...
LOL.. You crack me up. As soon as EVGA, ZOTAC and the rest of the AIB's post their confidential stock numbers, contract information, I'm sure Galaxy will jump right in. Galaxy can tell you whatever they want (or don't want)... I don't work for them.
Who am I? Same as you except I've...
Guys I worked in tech for 20 years (Supra, USRobotics, BFG) You have to understand the sales channel. You don't call up Newegg and say "Hey I'd like to sell my product there" and have it show up the next day, week or even month. As was mentioned in the article, Galaxy parted ways with the...
I'm not sure how people are reading into this that Galaxy is out of business or something. They are one of the biggest brands in Japan/China/Korea and also do well in Europe. They parted ways with their rep team here in the US and have stated they are still here. I'm as cautious as...
Galaxy is based in Hong Kong. Like many companies overseas they use rep firms to sell products in the US (and other markets). The two friends Kyle referenced were not owners but simply a rep firm.
Keep in mind that things take time. If the sale force here was dumped, Galaxy will probably need to get new contracts in place for dealers, facilities etc. They are still taking support calls, still honoring RMAs, and I'm sure they will start selling again in the market shortly. Lets be...
Wow.. and I thought the Patriot Home Box Office or WD stuff had crappy UI's. I've been trying to "cut the cord" at home for about 4 years now and with a wife and kids its impossible. No way they would put up with using crap like this..
I have at least 6+ devices for media...
Why make it look like sheet metal? If you are going to make it look like a home theater component, make it good enough for me to show off in my media room. Might as well make it beige.
You guys kill me. 7.33 million units in Q4 and 4.69 million units in Q1 and "iPads don't sell"
Find a NVIDIA board partner with those numbers OR margin....
I have an iPad2 AND an Acer Iconia A500 tablet. The Acer has a few things going for it but the main issue is that Apple is the...
They are way more comfortable for me than my G35 or the G930 but the mic issue is a show stopper for me.
I've played around a bit more and I almost think it's codec related. For some reason I don't have any issue in DOD:S but in CS:S, 50% of the people hear the feedback and the rest...
Earl noticed an issue and wrote it off as something caused by the PC. Why not ask Corsair about the issue? Mic noise to me seems like a pretty important issue for a premium gaming headset.
As for your point about a "single review unit".... These are supposed to be production...
I'm sure I can get an RMA or return them to Microcenter.
As for "what more can they do?", how about Corsair be more responsive to the people on their forums wanting to know what the hell is going on? Most of us want to give this headset a second chance but haven't heard anything about...
I went out tonight and purchased these based on the "Gold" award from my favorite website and I have to say I couldn't be more disappointed. I should have spent 2 minutes looking at the Corsair forums and realized these are crap. Tons of posts about their crap mic. You even mention in...
I use my iPhone (or Android). There are a couple very slick remotes that offer keyboard and custom remote layouts for various programs.
If you have an iPhone/iPod or iPad:
Mobile Mouse is an amazing device. Smaller server app on the PC and you are good to go.

There are a number of tools.. Other than those shipped with the cards:
CPUID HWMonitor (and Pro version)

Great tool and does logging as well. Pro version allows you to monitor from another computer on the same network.

This is exactly the problem. I just gave up and installed the crappy Comcast DTA's since the majority of the channels are filtered now and won't show up without a "box". I've avoided owning a set top box from Comcast for over a decade but the game is over. They now control EVERY TV in my...
While I think home control has a future if some companies get off their hands, I have to laugh at anyone that thinks Energy Control is the "mother of all applications".. seriously? I can hear everyone talking about it now instead of the final episode of Lost. Hey Netgear, how about you...
I wrote about this a number of times on my blog already. If you are interested in a Social platform that might be done the right way, check out the project Diaspora that some guys are working on. Similar to an idea I had about 10 years ago before all this Social networking crap started.
Wow... sweet setup. I thought my Dell 24 & Acer 22 were pretty sweet for SC2. I may have to step up my game...
I'm assuming in SC2 it shows the secondary adapter as unavailable? That this is going to keep you from using one (or two) of the monitors for overview/map? That could be...
In the past I would have recommended my Razer Barracuda's.. AMAZING sound and great comfort. Unfortunately, I've had 2 pairs and BOTH are crap from a quality perspective. I have 2 friends that bought them on my recommendation, BOTH are having the same problems. First, the screw FALL...
