    Only problem is, if you're renting the equipment and you cancel, they do everything possible to charge you full retail for it. Plus dish's customer service is the worst I've ever dealt with, bar none.

    Zara Comfertor sets queen and king 19.99

    These bozo's are also selling under the website "homevisions". I've gotten email from the same people from both "stores". To date they havent filled ANY order i've ever placed, they apparently work with very small amounts of product and dont have real time inventory tied to their ordering...

    HP LaaserJet 1200 for $279

    Laser printer low power mode is between 5w and 15w, usually closer to 5w for newer models. Note that many laser printers do a power on cycle thing that can waste a bit of toner and produces wear and tear on the mechanism. Doesnt need to do that if you leave it on, plus its available for you...

    VIA EPIA 1Ghz for $116.95 + shipping?

    Ok, first some misinformation correction. This does not take SDRAM, its a DDR board. There arent 'old' and 'newer' chipset versions of this board, there is an epia and epia-m version. There are no non-'m' versions with the 1ghz chip on it, even though this doesnt specifically say its the 'm'...

    512 MB PC2700 RAM for $54.99 at Fry's

    Two things I wont ever go generic on...power supplies and RAM. You can get away with almost everything else. I have a handful of goofy sticks of RAM in my junkbox, and i'm fairly certain all of it came from fry's. I have a pile of Kingston and Crucial sticks, they keep working until they're...

    Falcon CR51 Mini-itx system $147 Shipped

    I've seen those cubid cases cheaper. The only thing that would make me pause is some cross information regarding them. I see some companies selling them with the epia and epia-m boards. Then again i've seen some companies saying to NOT run the faster epia or the epia-m's with anything less...

    Falcon CR51 Mini-itx system $147 Shipped

    ...And for anyone who gets the same bright idea that I did... The 40mm fan was so damn loud in that channel well power supply that I tried removing the fan and the exterior case from the power supply, figuring perhaps the open airflow in the case would be sufficient to keep it cool. Well it...

    350W PS 120cm Fan (super quiet) $29 shipped

    Just as another tidbit, as an afficionado of fans..i've yet to find a 120mm fan that was as quiet as the quieter 80mm versions. Of course the air CFM is higher, but the noise is as well. Get yerself a nice pc power and cooling fan, or a quiet antec, etc...or buy a quality unit and put a $10 pc...

    Yeah isnt that sweet? What is the thinking behind that exactly? "Hmm, these guys really dont want to talk to telemarketers and even went out and paid money for a device to keep us from calling them, lets go out and buy new telemarketing software that twarts the box and lets us call them...

    Hot? ATI AIW8500DV for $158 Amazon Gold Box

    My very BEST guess is they dont specify which 24 hours, nor that they're contiguous... I get this from amazon regularly, and when I do I usually cancel the order unless its a scream of a deal. No sense in rewarding that sort of behavior. They screwed me a few times on this when something in...

    ati radeon 9000 for 63$

    Exxxcceellent card if you're looking for a good board for a home theater pc (htpc) or a quiet pc. Its passively cooled with a good sized heat sink, yet carries all of the latest ATI video quality goodies. Considering a passively cooled 7000/7200 runs about the same price at 64MB, this is a...

    Falcon CR51 Mini-itx system $147 Shipped

    This box will play mpeg4's, but struggles a little bit on dvd's according to several reviews. You might get a skip or two now and then. The epia-m 10000 motherboard has the newer nehemiah processor and the mpeg2 in hardware, and plays both fine. The most amazing lack of thinking i've ever...

    "I put a bag over my head and ran across the highway six times and nothing bad happened, therefore its ok to run across the highway with a bag on your head". Sounds like they screw up an occasional order, often enough to realize they need to hire more people to do the job right. On the other...

    Environizer Air Purifiers (Similar to Ionic Breeze at Sharper Image)

    Hmm, consumer reports checked out that sharper image unit, which works on the same principle, and said it was virtually worthless. On the Ozone situation, it wont hurt a healthy person, but if you are at all respiratory compromised (allergic, asthmatic, etc), it may in fact give you some...

    HOT! NEw Linksys 54mb wireless router!

    Some points and quick answers: - this works on the same 2.4ghz bandwidth as 802.11b, so the same negatives follow with it. IE, will conflict with phones, microwave ovens, etc. 802.11a while working at the same speed operates in the 5ghz band and doesnt interfere with anything - for people...

    WARM: 120GB Samsung drive 5400 2mb @ The Geeks $119 +S&H

    7200 rpm drives ARE irrelevant for a tivo. Three years ago when 7200 rpm drives threw off a lot of heat, and were more expensive, and werent particularly necessary for tivo usage (the performance benefits of 7200rpm drives arent great for video processing that cant fill the pipe...), people...

    Antec 400w PSU at CompUSA for $39.99

    Hmm, I didnt find it loud at all. Compared to an enermax and an sl-350 that I can barely hear from 5 feet away, its comparable. Thats why they use 2 fans, both are lower speed, lower noise. Two quiet fans arent twice as loud, all you'll hear in general is the loudest fan in the system. I...

    LEADTEK WINFAST "DELUXE" TV2000XP TV/FM MULTIMEDIA CARD - RETAIL BOX (UPDATE: NOW $42.00 shipped!) @ Newegg!

    Agreed, but check the FORUM and see the July/august postings from the developers saying support was 'right around the corner'. Also agree they dont get paid for it, so dont hold their feet to the fire. Also dont make purchases based on what unpaid developers said they'd do 'real soon now' six...

    LEADTEK WINFAST "DELUXE" TV2000XP TV/FM MULTIMEDIA CARD - RETAIL BOX (UPDATE: NOW $42.00 shipped!) @ Newegg!

    Newer brooktree/conexant chips, and I believe the 10-bit chip mentioned, arent yet supported by Dscaler. Go to www.dscaler.com and check the card compatibility list. Further, the developers were talking about supporting it "very soon" about six months ago. Not a good sign...either its around...

    Computer : Configure a barebones Celeron/Pentium 1.7 ghz for as low as $214 + $16 shipping

    Celeron and p4? The p4 is much better at running benchmarks than a celeron. ;) If you're running actual applications, you'd never know the difference. Very few applications benefit from the extra cache. In fact, if you get a 2.0ghz or better celeron, its a northwood core p4 with all the...

    Refurbished Antec "True Power" PSU at Newegg.com

    Hmm, well fact is most power supplies are never completely "off" when the system is powered down. They're online to a degree and waiting for you to push the power button or some other powerup event to occur. Theres even usually some amount of power applied to the motherboard even when the...

    Refurbished Antec "True Power" PSU at Newegg.com

    Nice way of wording it, newegg. Yes, the items were tested by the original manufacturer, then shipped to a customer who returned it to newegg, who doesnt test it and resells it as "refurbished". I'm still waiting for some govt agency to have a little 'chat' with them about this, as it seems...

    SMOKING! (maybe) Get Free Zenith Cruisepad (was $1300)

    If I remember right, this uses some obscure networking setup that requires you put a card in another pc thats on to connect the cruisepad to the network. Also weak processor and memory. Guess its ok for a toy but not something i'd go scrounging up $100 worth of stuff to get. Edit: on further...

    Mag 15" tft lcd for $249 AR best buy

    They have the mag lt565 15" with built in cheesy speakers for $349 with $100 MIR. Just bought one and hooked it up, nice to have half my desk back. I think the LCD response is a little slow for some folks, but I ran some dvd video on it and it looks pretty fine to me. For the price its hard...

    $3000 bucks for a 42 inch plasma Gateway TV!

    I've already replied to many of the other 97,000 threads on this product. I own one, if you're going to feed it progressive scan dvd or hdtv signals from an external decoder its not bad, if you're going to feed it cable or satellite dont bother, the picture quality is awful. Basically if you...

    NewEgg is CRAZY!!!!!! Check out all the refurbs not just MOBO's! Crazy Prices

    I'm pretty much shocked they still call these "refurbs" and nobody has kicked them in the shins about it yet. Classic definition of a "refurb" is something that a manufacturer/contract house has gone over and returned to original operating condition. Neweggs definition of a refurb is something...

    2.0 GHz Laptop with dvd/cdrw,256MB ram for $1098.00 SHIPPED

    This is/was on sale at Sams Club for the same price. I looked it over, not bad for the price, pretty thick and heavy and uses a desktop p4 instead of a mobile p4, so warmer in the lap and shorter of battery life.

    cheap HP ze4000 notebooks at staples..

    Grr. Got mine and now for the problems. Just as a bit of background 2 years ago I bought an HP laptop for the first time. It inducted noise from the 802.11b wireless card through the speakers. It was a constant hissing/whirring noise. They took it back and "fixed" it, when I got it back it...

    SUPER HOT: 6% back on ALL GAS for former Chase-Shell card owners!!! 5% after March

    Well it wasnt much of a deal anyhow, at least not here in northern california as the shell gas was ALWAYS more than 5% more expensive than other stations. Further, they used to offer free car washes with a fill up and all the stations around here recently installed new car wash "systems" and...

    cheap HP ze4000 notebooks at staples..

    I'm taking a shot at the dual HP $100 rebates. I made copies of the upc and receipts for the second rebate and included a letter explaining, along with the terms and conditions from both rebates with the bolded "this may be combined with other hp offers" circled. I suspect they intended to...

    Is $3200 - $300 Mail In Rebate Good for a 42" Plasma TV?

    I havent tried the vb50 with a regular tube/projection hdtv but if you have one and arent satisfied with the pic quality when using rf/composite/s-video inputs I'd definitely try one - providing the tv has a 15 pin rgb monitor input for the vb50. Worst case its no better and you take it back...

    Is $3200 - $300 Mail In Rebate Good for a 42" Plasma TV?

    Hey no problem, I spend stupid money on stuff so you guys dont have to ;) The plasma's will generally look great with progressive scan dvd players on them, mine is a knockout even for a cheapie. Its really designed to take a progressive scan input from the rgb or component input, with the...

    Is $3200 - $300 Mail In Rebate Good for a 42" Plasma TV?

    Oh one more thing. There was a DVI question. DVI is the connector that you would use to connect an HDTV tuner or the hdtv output of your satellite receiver (if your receiver does hdtv). I havent seen DVI out before, but I imagine that lets you connect your receiver to your tv, then the tv to...

    Is $3200 - $300 Mail In Rebate Good for a 42" Plasma TV?

    Here's my 2c, and I actually own one of these so its not random opinion or heresy. Sampo is not a sony "sister company". They havent got a thing to do with each other. These panels are built on Fuji flat panels although fuji doesnt market their own sets directly. Sampo is a big company that...

    Garmin GPS 64MB Memory just $75.74 at Amazon (25 Oct 02 only)

    Uh oh, theres a joke in there somewhere...:P This is a KILLER price for this, for owners of streetpilots or emaps. I was eyeballing one of these last month for about $120 shipped (best price I could find) but decided it wasnt worth it. Now i'm $75 poorer. Damn fine catch on this!!! Thanks!!!
