Need help choosing hardware, loads of questions!

I'm planning a build too Xatrix. And like you, I haven't built anything in a while (2002). Here's what I'm settling down on. I'm about 99% there I just don't know if I want to splurge on an 8800gt now or wait until it drops below $200 next year. ABIT IP35 Pro Corsair 520HX E6750 GSkill...

Westinghouse L2410NM Glossy Black 24" 8ms Widescreen LCD Monitor 500 cd/m2 1000:1 Built in Speakers - Retail

I think that'd be the best way to go ghost recon. The SD TV is pretty bad and from a review I caught online, looks great only when running through an upscaler (especially non HD/Bluray DVDs.

Westinghouse L2410NM Glossy Black 24" 8ms Widescreen LCD Monitor 500 cd/m2 1000:1 Built in Speakers - Retail

Okay, yea just got it... blown away, great monitor (excuse my sentence fragmentation). I read some so-so reviews of this thing but honestly, from subjective views (at BB compared to every other monitor on the floor) and next to my Acer glossy 20" widescreen side-by-side, this monitor really lays...

I got my HDMI cable from monoprice.com also. Turned out to be like $11 shipped. You can't beat this deal if the monitor is as good as it looks in the store. I mean, VGA out will be to this monitor, DVI out will be to my secondary monitor, component for XBOX, and HDMI for TV, I'm never going...

Taylormade R580XD

This may sound like a naive question but if I just started out, would it be more beneficial for me to start hitting around at the driving range first to figure out what my swing is first and then get fitted for clubs? I just went to hit the club around at the driving range and it felt good. I...

Taylormade R580XD

Anyone use this driver, how do you like it? I'm going to try one out today to buy for cheap and after reading a few reviews, haven't heard anything too negative. As far as I know it's a 9.5 loft and stiff shafted.

Any IT Managers in the House?

Wow, funny how things get twisted when you don't type it out right. I didn't mean to throw out the numbers 90-100k to justify myself making that out of college (definitely not self-inflating here...). I'm trying to rank myself in the grand scheme of things. I'm a starter and I think that 40k...

Any IT Managers in the House?

I'm sorry if it sounded like I was trying to toot my own horn or something because I'm really not. The position I applied for when I got hired was "IT Manager" and I'm not trying to elevate my status to anything I'm not. I oversee two offices with a team that is outsourced on the other one and...

Any IT Managers in the House?

Haha, let me restate this. I AM the IT Manager now. I've just been on a part time salary because I was still earning a degree. Now, I have a degree, I have full-time status, and will be looking to negotiate a salary based upon that. I have 3 years experience. So, what's entry level IT salary...

Guitar Strings

Here's exactly what you're looking for. Light, D'Addario EXPs. It's a cheaper version of the Elixirs which have that "slippery" feel to them (coated strings). They have great clarity and won't hurt your fingers because of the lighter gauge. I've used them for some time now and have never been...

Any IT Managers in the House?

ATOT is probably one of my favorite places to get info so if you work in IT/IS, can you let me know what you make? I'm getting hired full time out of college and looking to negotiate a salary based upon what other IT Managers receive in my area. So far, it looks to be around $90-100k. I'm...
