I got tired of trying to buy a 30X0 GPU for any kind of sane price, and my PC began to show signs of instability anyway, so I ended up buying an ABS Gladiator prebuilt PC. I was happy with the components used and the case was OK, and it was a reasonable deal, so I went for it. When it came I...

Well, I have been getting billed by Verizon for $0.00 balance from the previous month, with a warning if it wasn't paid I would be cut off. It's supposed to have been fixed now, but we will see at the end of the month when I get the next bill. This nonsense started in June, and so far, they seem...

The claim they are "losing money" is a joke. There's no way the stuff inside a PS3 costs as anywhere near what Sony is claiming. When they make a claim like that, it just further erodes any credibility they had with me, not that they had much anyway at this point in time. They are buying these...

I had a nightmare go round with Dell Financial when I bought my laptop. The laptop itself is about as perfect as it could ever be, and my 20" monitor has been great too. I decided to order a 23" monitor, and it was insane. I have a Dell credit acct, and the website wouldn't accept it. So, I call...

I loved Seinfeld, but the two ads just flat blow...They are slightly, very slightly, funny at times, but the praise heaped on them here is just over the top.

Yep, nearsighted and attempting to make shareholders temporarily happy. Between some truly stupid long term decisions, the money wasted by the CEO flying all over the country to play golf on the company jet, the insane prices paid for PCs and accessories, the wasted money in thrown away brand...

I've never really understood how selling a factory or outsourcing in general saves any money at all. How come another company can run the same factory and make a profit on it, yet the original owner can't do it with less expenses (Duplicated personell and paperwork)? When the company I used to...

I don't remember where it was from anymore, but ordered two sticks of DDR 400 Ram a couple years ago for a PC I was building. I come home a few days later, and there was a huge box sitting on my porch, easily big enough for the biggest computer case I have ever seen, and inside, taped to the...

I am so disapointed in the Camaro. As a former owner of a Z-28 and a TransAm, it saddens me that GM could have screwed it up so bad. The interior is just horrible. The Challenger, on the other hand, is a home run. I was afraid Chrysler would screw it up, and put the interior from the show car...

My TV is slowly dying, getting greener and greener. It hasn't got too long now, so I've been looking, a lot. I see the rainbows in DLP sets, supposedly this is not going to be a problem soon, but I haven't seen a rainbow free DLP set yet. I don't like projection sets, too narrow a viewing...

I'm pushing 50, and last year, I had to make a change from the two monitors I had at home, a 19" Dell Trinitron, and a Sony (can't remember the model) that was very very similar. I was having too much eyestrain trying to read smaller fonts, I had a crappy Dell 15" at work, and it was laggy as...

Nothing Dell people say on the phone surprises me at this point. My I9300 is a great machine, so far, but I have had all kinds of insanity when it comes to calls to billing. I spoke with people in (4) India,(1) Panama, and (I'm pretty sure)(3) Texas. They sent me conflicting info and all I was...

What worries me is cordless 2.4 GIG and 5.x gig phones. I have a Panasonic set of three 2.4gig phones I've had for a year or so. They work great, sound ok, have amazing range, BUT when I talk on one for more than about a minute, I can (and I can tell with my eyes closed if the phone is on or...

A co-worker went to the nearby Office Max, looking to see if they had any of the 200 gig WD drives they advertised in the paper. He got there 10 MINUTES after it was open, and they were gone. This seems to be the story with them, as over the years I have tried to get stuff there that's...

Thanks for the reply. Biostar has been sent a request for info on this at least twice and never has replied. There are two versions of the M7VIP, and the max processor is different on each. The info below is what I got from the Biostar Webites (Amer and Taiwan). I don't seem to be able to...

I just built one for a friend with a Asus K8V SE, it was the most trouble free build I have ever done. Zero real problems with it, worked great. I wish I could have kept it, it sure blows this machine away...

I've looked and can't seem to find out what version I have. I looked at the bios screens and also in Sisoft Sandra and can't find it. I am thinking about upping my CPU from a XP 2000+ to maybe a XP 2800+, until I can put the money together for a new PC. Anyone know where it (the info) is for...
