    i wish i could try them out, but i cant seem to find any places where i can test these out =/ thanks for the input though! i decided against the 590s because the price i quoted ended up being refurbished. i went ahead and bought the 555s over the 280s.. i figured, like you said, they shouldnt...

    I've been happy with an old Palm V but it was KIA a few months ago, so im looking for a replacement now. Surplus computers has the same for $35 but I'm thinking something with color might be useful. I'd get something newer but for now I can't justify the cost since i only use it for...

    WTB: Really Cheap Working Laptop

    as far as i could see he offered $300 obo, that was $100 difference and like i said ebay auctions were at $150 no bag or wifi, i think $50 for a nice laptop bag and a wifi card is within reason. if you dont like the price thats fine, i said OBO, but no need to be rude.

    I know ya'll dont like dell, but what about the 400sc?

    It's been said already.. but you'll basically be paying for a lot of stuff you dont need/want and you wont be getting of stuff you do want. You'll get rid of the 48x drive and the video card and you probably dont need to be paying for that 40gb HD, and you'll be buying more ram. so thats...

    advice for building video editing PC?

    A few friends of mine need a PC for video editing, stuff like Adobe Premiere, and im not sure what makes a good video editing machine. I figured any low end video card is fine since they're not dealing with 3d, but would they benefit from having more than 512mb of ram or would they benefit from...

    will extra vdimm take my crucial ddr400 to 250fsb?
