Harmon Kardon DVD 50 5 Disk Changer 496.99

Excellent price on the unit, but it doesn't seem that the elitists over at AudioReview.com think too highly of it.

Free Book: "A Closer Look at Dr. Laura"

My problem with Dr. Laura isn't her views (although I disagree with them), her hypocritical comments, or her morals. What I object to is her audacity to propose that if someone doesn't live by her ideals, that makes them an immoral person. It's just another case of someone trying to force their...

Is P3 stepping identifiable on outside of retail box?

I know the S-spec will determine the stepping. That's why I asked if either are indicated. ;) Thanks for the info. Much appreciated. Would you happen to know precisely where on the box it is? I have a few retail boxes at home, but I'm at work for another 10 hours, and can possibly go to the...

Is P3 stepping identifiable on outside of retail box?

I got one of those Gateway 6400 servers and want to get a 2nd CPU to throw in there. The CPU they sent is a CD0 stepping, and from my understanding, CB0 and CC0 stepping P3's are iffy for SMP with a CD0 because the CD0 uses a different core voltage. I finally tracked down a vendor online that's...

SOLD OUT! 10,000 RPM 18 gig SCSI- $90 and 80 meg CF lexar for $59!

skywhr> They pulled the drive off of their site. Guess it sold out. The drive was definitely not listed as a refurb, and doing a search for the model ID turned up both the sale drive and the same drive as a refurb model, which incidentally cost more than the one not marked as refurb.

Wooster> I'm 99% sure it's the Vantage, as the 6.6ms Read seek time is the same as the TigerDirect page states. The Enterprise is somewhat faster, around 5.x ms.

The Brother's are actually LED printers, not laser. The SuperScript 870 is very nice, and uses standard FPM SIMMs to upgrade. Unfortunately, the network option kit typically costs more than the printer.
