I'm debating between the dell s2721qs and the dell s3221qs as a replacement for my old dell 2405fpw to connect my linux box, macbook pro and maybe a mac mini. Anyone have any thoughts over which one to get?
I don't game anymore so I'm not worried about that. I do a lot more development work so...
I have a directory on my local apache server that looks like this:
www/
index.php
index.php?page=1
These look like php pages but are actually HTML files. When I go to www/index.php?page=1 the index.php is displayed. When I go to www/index.php%3Fpage=1 then the index.php?page=1 is...
It turns out I have a bad disk in my ZFS array. It's an older Hitachi HDS5C3020ALA632 2TB drive that failed, which don't seem to be around anymore. What is a good replacement drive to get?
My HTC One is just over a week old and somehow I already cracked the camera lens! Does anyone know if I will be able to exchange it since the phone is a week old, or do I need insurance on it?
It's becoming time I replace my Nokia N8 on ATT with something newer. I love the smaller size and camera of the N8, but that's about it. I like smaller phones that can fit in my pocket without it feeling like a brick. I was thinking about the HTC One or the iPhone 5s. Are there any other good...
I read this yesterday. I'm not surprised by this. EA doesn't seem to care about its customers or their products, but more about their bottom line and share holders.
I'm looking to replace the cpu fan or grab an aftermarket cooler for my 8350. The damn thing sounds loud and revs up whenever I open applications or start to do something. I may try reseating it to be safe, but I don't think that's the problem.
Anyone recommend a good cooler? The case is a...
I just installed Ubuntu 12.10 and I am experiencing some odd behavior. When I open multiple applications, say two Terminals, I cannot click back on the first terminal. It appears as though I can only control one program at a time. This doesn't seem right....
I am looking to build a new PC to either run ESXI or Linux with VirtualBox as needed. The only VM I have planned so far is a Usenet indexer with Couch Potato, sabnzd, and sickbeard. I do web dev so I might spin-up a web server or two if I don't use XAMPP. This will probably act as my main rig...
So I just received the Quick Fire TK and for the life of me I can't seem to figure out how to get the window and tab key to function. If I press the window key my windows start menu does not open. If I press the tab key in a browser it's supposed to take me to the next form element but instead...
What happened to the classic Beat 'em Up and hack 'n slash games such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Double Dragon, X-Men, Golden Axe? These were always fun 2-4 player games. Today's consoles could do wonders with these types of games. Are there any of these kind of games out there now that I...
Can anyone recommend a stand for the ipad that will work well in the kitchen? I'm looking for something that isn't too big and will be nice if you want to use the ipad while cooking. I was thinking about this one, but it seems expensive for what it is: ipad stand
Where are all of the Black Friday deals for 2011? With BF being only 2 weeks away I would have thought some stores would have leaked their deals by now. The [H]otDeals section usually has some of these deals posted by now, but so far all has been quiet in this regard. Maybe I am missing...
Does anyone know of a good pair of wireless headphones to use with a mobile phone? I have a Nokia N8 and I want to listen to music when running but I don't want to use headphones that have wires getting in my way.
I was thinking about getting the Amazon.com: Plantronics BackBeat 903+ Headset...
I switched a website from JustHost to VPS.net yesterday and when I ping mydomain.com it will ping the new VPS server, but if I do www.mydomain.com it will ping the JustHost sever! What gives? I changed the DNS entry with my domain registrar (GoDaddy). Is there something I need to do, or wait for...
How do these Hitachi 2TB Deskstars compare to the 2TB Samsung F4? The Hitachi Drvies can be had for $79.99 with promo code (EMCKHKJ26) and those Sammy's are always dropping to the same price.
I'm looking to purchase 4 at the moment so which ones would be good for a ZFS system?
I just got this in an email from Buy.com:

The time has come to replace my old Promise SmartStor NAS. This will store mostly DVD and Blu-ray rips. I plan on purchasing 4 2TB drives to hold me over for now. I want something that is relatively small, quiet, and will be able to support at least 8 hot-swap hard drives.
I never used FreeNAS...
Somebody I know recently purchased an AMD 6 core processor. He was telling me that the AMD 6 core processor has 6 true cores unlike Intel who instead of dual or quad cores, have dual or quad threads which they pass off as cores.
Please correct me if I am wrong, but I thought Intel's Core 2...
I want to use a front-end such as XBMC to watch my movie streams as well as Netflix and possibly, Hulu and Amazon VOD. Right now I use my Wii to watch Netflix but I would rather have access to everything from 1 place, my HTPC. I wouldn't mind so much if I had to close out XBMC and fire up a...
I think this X-Mas I am going to put together a HTPC build. It only needs to play Netflix, maybe Hulu, DVD and Blu-Ray rips from the file server. It will be hooked up to a Panasonic 54" Plasma. The front end will run XBMC. I went with an SSD because I want it to run quieter and cooler than a...
I'm not sure if this should go in the Hot Deals section but it looks like Hostgator is having 80% off all of their plans.

Football season is around the corner and I need a big screen TV. I want something that is at least 52" and it can be either LCD or Plasma. Since the TV will be in basement I'm thinking a plasma is a better choice because there is less glare and they are cheap. I was looking at getting either of...
I noticed a lot of people do side work creating websites for local businesses or friends and families. My question is, who maintains the website when you are done creating it? Do you hand off all content updating to your client or do they continually provide you with content which you must...
I was able to OC my Q6600 to 3.6ghz at 400mhz x 9 using 1.44v. Here is the old thread that talked about it. Just recently (as of last night) as I play BC2 I received two BSOD while playing. I thought it was the game causing this but it's my OC. I fired up Intels Burn Test and about a minute in...
I'm putting together one of those "Product Reivew" websites using WordPress. My featured products will be local hotels and people will be able to review and rate these hotels. I'm not really sure how I should setup my website file structure or permalinks as WordPress calls it. I'm thinking I...
How are you guys mounting your 2.5" drives into a standard ATX case? Does your case support 2.5" drives or are you buying an adapter? I have a SSD drive waiting for install but I'm having a hard time spending $12-$15+ for a metal or plastic adapter. It's the $5-$6 shipping that kills the deal on...
Does anyone have any experience with video on demand services such as Amazon's VOD or any other sites where you can download full movies legally? I'm curious to the quality and how popular such services are and if they can expect to grow in popularity.
Anyone here good at designing logos for websites or know somebody who is? I have a website I've been working on that needs a nice logo but my skills lack in creating something nice.
I was surprised to see BF2 on steam after so long. I wonder if this means future BF titles will be released on steam on launch day.
The Battlefield 2: Complete Collection features the following:
Battlefield 2 (v1.50)
Battlefield 2: Special Forces
Battlefield 2: Euro Forces...
Who thinks clubbing.com will have Windows 7 as a prize shortly after it is released? I noticed they had Vista Ultimate for a while and now only Home Premium. Vista Ultimate was going for 28,000 points. If Win 7 does get added do you think it will go for 28k points or more?
I don't know why but this game has my interest. I noticed it on steam and downloaded the demo to try it out but I get some strange runtime error.
Has anyone played this game yet and how do they like it?
