UPDATE: Provantage WILL honor their pre-order 6800 price

Yeah it's a hold, sorry for the error. HOW ANNOYING! It looks like a number of us took the plunge. My PNY Ti4400 died last Saturday :( I hope they accept an RMA (yeah right). Actually bought a 9800 pro at BB, but decided to do some research. I feel the 6800GT is really the best buy right now...

UPDATE: Provantage WILL honor their pre-order 6800 price

Well guess what, my credit card was already charged yesterday afternoon and my status changed right after. Yeah it's fishy, they charged and it doesn't state it even shipped :-/ But on the other hand, it may confirm that I'm already locked in for the price :-) -YABBA DABBA DOOO! -----...

Comcast High Speed Internet $29.99/month in the Bay Area (non-cable customers)

Yeah, I was thinking about doing that with my girlfriend. Do the switch... But I was really fed up with Comcast cable for many reasons. First it stinks if you want to do file sharing (the cap, having problems connecting to peers, unlike SBC DSL), my connection was unreliable (often drops forcing...

Comcast High Speed Internet $29.99/month in the Bay Area (non-cable customers)

Comcast SUCKS! I went in for the $20 for 6 months deal when I moved to Burlingame CA. mid last year. As soon as the promotion was over they bumped up our monthly to $60 per month since we didn't want to have cable TV. Ridiculous! I wonder if they are offering this now because of the fallout of...

Comcast to raise download to 3Mbps

When using file sharing programs, in particular bittorrent, my calculated average for dl/ul is 250/30. Comcast sucks for P2P, I had much better speeds when I had PacBell DSL. When the promotion is over, abd if my peer connection limits dont get better after the upgrade, I'm going back to...
