    No Jail For Virginia Craigslist Killer

    well, to be fair, from the article it sounds like it was a shooting in self defense which is probably why he's not doing jail time. If that's what happened or not, who really knows...

    Music Industry Wants Cut of Pirate Bay Sale

    I gotta say that I'm a little bit shocked over this. Not that I didn't see it coming but always just expected it to be a backdoor deal through another company. This makes me wonder what their plans for it are. Will they just buy it to let the name die, use their server records to try to go...

    Good controller for ps2 emulation?

    I'll ask my buddy what he did, but I know he was able to use his ps3 controller on his PC somehow (maybe a custom driver?) or just go with a 360 pad, really can't go wrong with either :)

    How "overkill" is a GTX 260 or HD 4870 for 1680x1050 gaming?

    not at all overkill IMO With some games it might be more than enough @ 1680, but there are plenty of others that will stress that card no problem. With that said, a 260 is more than enough (in most titles) to run 1920x1200 maxed without aa enabled If you can find a more powerful card for not...

    Beware the iSpud Conmen

    lol sucks to be them but I bet they learned a valuable lesson Scam artists used to do this with VCR's way back when. They'd throw a brick in a VCR box, tape it up and sell it to some sucker on the street for pennies on the dollar.

    AnyDVD HD Questions

    yup, rip it to an iso image instead and mount it to a virtual drive. However, whatever blueray software you're using for playback should be able to read the files in the folder you ripped it to (like playing .vob files with dvd), however, the isos are much easier to manage imo

    Oblivion compared to Fallout 3

    ok, I take it back. decided to re-install fallout and give it another shot. The bugs still annoy me, but I forgot how much fun this game can be as well lol Can't help but love the unnecessary violence.

    Any hard drive cooling tips?

    I'd just use a standard fan. I've read that you may actually shorten it's lifespan if you run it too cool though (how true this is, I'm not sure)

    Good controller for ps2 emulation?

    I use my 360 controller... it works very nice imo. I used to use a ps2 > usb converter which worked pretty well but without deadzone calibration (thanks M$) it was sort of flaky... I've also had this problem with several logitech gamepads over the years (since DX9/10 came out). The ms pads have...

    3D monitor or not? That is the question.

    I've never used nvidias shutter glasses, nor have I used one of iz3d's monitors but if I had to guess I'd say that the iz3d solution would give a better experience due to using polarized glasses/screen. with that said, I'm not sure how much longer they'll (iz3d) be around in this economy so...

    Oblivion compared to Fallout 3

    For the most part it's just minor annoyances. Character animations are horrible, the level cap was low which is perhaps my biggest gripe, once you beat the game you were done (this has been fixed in one of the DLC's), the environment is very bland (I understand their need to make it...

    Oblivion compared to Fallout 3

    I liked Fallout 3 for the most part, but (in my opinion) oblivion is a much better game. There were a lot of things that irked me about fallout and pretty much stopped playing because of it. I may go back to it sometime in the future though

    Pls help a dumb and lazy guy overclocking his Q6600

    What cpu cooler are you using? Honestly, just leave everything set to auto and give 333 fsb (x9 multi) a shot. You should be able to run it at 3.0 with no issues. I would highly recommend learning about it before doing it though. It's a bad idea messing with stuff like that without understanding...

    Recover deleted partition? Possible?

    thanks for the suggestions. I was able to recover most of it with a handy piece of software called testdisk. It found the old partition info and was able to restore most of it, then converted it back to fat32. I lost all the large files (over 4gb) but got a majority of 'em back. thanks again
