    Netbooks for the savvy

    I know netbooks are highly commoditized to get the prices very low. But can you push them even lower by doing a little DIY upgrades? Specifically, Has anyone done an OS install? Linux based netbooks are a little cheaper, and I have unused XP copies gathering dust. How hard is it to do a...

    48v fan

    Well, the spec sheet I linked isn't the exact model I have. I finally peeled off all the price sticker to get to the specs printed on the fan itself (on the whole fan, they couldn't find another spot to put the price sticker?). Anyhow, it's only a 16w motor, not 40. So that comes out to less...

    Computer crash, recovering RAID

    Long time lurker, first time poster... Our HTPC croaked and for some reason took the drives with it. The drives are mechanically fine, but I'm not having success recoving the data on them. The setup (in hindsight a bit too creative), was two drives with two partitions each to make two...
