    WTB: Plantronics DSP-500

    $20 including s&h? heh.. they are collecting dust at this point. That's like $15.00 (ship is $3.85) for a still $70ish headset. :)

    WTB: Plantronics DSP-500

    Not exactly the DSP-500s, but I have a set of DSP-400 headphones - as far as I can tell on Plantronics' website there's not much difference. They work great and are in mint condition, no scratches or scuffs and I still have their carry/storage pouch. I'd sell for $28 (includes priority...

    Never getting my X800XT-PE

    I preordered a X800 XT PE from CDW on 7/7 with an original ETA of the 12th, but now they don't have a clue. I've ordered a 6800GT from zipzoomfly in the meantime, i know it's an awesome card and with a simple oc it'll become a $500 ultra. And if, a big if, I ever get my X800 XT PE, i'll just...

    R9800pro and S-video in black and white

    I had this issue and it was my TV's fault. Broken pin? No, but I had to hit it a few times; aka loose/flaky connection.

    Can I play BattleField Vietnam with an ATI 9600Pro?

    Heck yes you can, but you'll be holding yourself to 800x600 or 1024x768, also by maxing everything out, if you exclude FSAA and AA being maxed, you'll be playable, but not 60fps, more like 30-40ish.

    EverQuest benefits hugely from these cards, that's why I'd pay a million dollars for one... :)

    X800 XT PE availability date on ATI Web Shop...

    http://shop.ati.com/product.asp?sku=2537962 - link for you lazy folks I'm hoping that the reason for the very very late date is because ATi is choosing to fulfill vendor/distributor orders first before they fill their own. Makes sense to me.

    X800xt pe still on schedule to arrive today (7/9) at CDW!

    Just thought I'd let everyone know the current CDW status: I just got off the phone with my rep and there is an ETA date of 7/30 now but he has no idea if that's a firm date or not. When I ordered, 7/7, they gave me an ETA of the 12th, but it's been pushed back. Honestly, if I can't find a...

    comments on passive laptop cooling?

    We carry the laptop desk and the targus chill mat at Best Buy. I don't remember how the fan setup is on the chill mat but my manager got one for his m6805 and said it didn't do a thing. And just by looking at the heatpipe setup, I doubt it would even make a difference because I would HOPE...

    Messing around with Linux on m6805, Best 64bit Friendly Linux ?

    You forgot to mention SUSE Linux! From what I've heard it's the best supported 64 bit distro out there. I would definately recommend giving it a shot. It was also, I believe, the first "commercial" type distro to do 64 bit.

    Small size, long battery life, powerful laptop? Help me!

    Wow, I've never ran into this model before... they are going for great prices on eBay. Although 1.26" thick seems a bit much, and it's basicly 5lbs. I want to check out one of these in person first. I wonder if any retail stores carry this model...

    Cd-Rom Drive Sounding Like an Airplane on m6805

    Happened with mine as well, if I wasn't selling it to get a smaller & longer lasting battery life laptop, I would have exchanged it under my Best Buy service plan for a new one. It didn't do it when I first got it, no idea why it started happening though.

    I'm looking for laptops with long battery life (4+ hours), a nice small size, and that have a decent amount of power, centrino 1.4ghz+. Please help me out. I am probably ordering a Sony Z1-WA, but I've heard many contradicting reports on out of the box battery life, some people get 3 hours...

    best buy and rebates...

    Our price guaruntee is the same length as the return policy (sometimes we do extend it in certain situations). If it's within the 14 day return period of your laptop then you can come in and get the new rebate. Just bring your receipt, you don't need the laptop.

    Emachines 17" laptop soon?

    Just want to let you all know that I work at Best Buy in computer sales and have not heard one bit of information regarding any exclusive eMachine power-house notebook.

    If you are somehow able to obtain a notebook from Best Buy, our service plans are international and yes it covers shipping via UPS or FedEx for repair. Question would be though how you could get it. Got any relatives in the US or Canada? :)

    First attempt to open the M6805: Failed

    With our service plan (Best Buy) you are able to open up and install your own hardware in PCs and notebooks without voiding the warranty, however if you cause damage to it BY installing something, that is not covered. You're safe with Best Buy. It's good to hear you got the service plan, as...

    emachines m6805 display

    Lets straighten this out, eMachines should no longer be labeled as "budget" per say, they do still have budget machines (aka cheap) but they also have extremely nice systems and notebooks that are comparable or better to HPs/Dells/Etc for a little lower price. Anywho, to answer the post...

    LCD Screen size - M6805

    Sorry, I don't have a ruler to measure my m6805 with exactly, but it's a standard 15.4" widescreen, so it's going to be slightly shorter vertically and a couple inches longer horizontally. Yes, I know you are saying "duh." Your cover will probably still fit, but it's not going to cover the...

    ATITool on M6805

    Tests are working fine for me, but I do get some weird error message at first when the 3d view pops up, but it doesn't seem to affect anything. I auto detected core and memory and am now happily running at 447 / 243. ;)

    My eMachine m6805 3dmark 2k1 Bench

    I was already extremely satisifed with this laptops stock score of approx 9,500 on 3dmark 2001SE but then I went ahead and overclocked the card (nothing else was done, no quality changes, etc). The stock on the Mobility Radeon 9600 it comes with is 299 / 199, I easily have it running at 447 /...
