    Updated 9/20: Bing cashback

    After going through the whole loop of auto-reply emails from MS, I finally got my 3 failed transactions by contacting paypal with all the transaction information. All squared away now after waiting a month in limbo.

    Technical question about video framerates

    I guess the ultimate question is this = Once the video is converted to 60 fps/ips, does each "frame" actually display a picture that represents a distinct moment of elapsed time? I am gathering that it does. ie Frame One = Displays an accurate picture of what was actually happening at...

    Technical question about video framerates

    Thanks for the link FP. It helped...I think. (*Note: It did drive me nuts that they were talking about 25 / 50 fps instead of 30/60 all the way through until I got to the very end and read the noting saying they were discussing PAL instead of NTSC). From what I am gathering, the 2 separate...

    Technical question about video framerates

    I'm 99% sure this is the analog to digital converter that is resold as part of their "package" http://www.firewire-1394.com/canopus-advc-110.htm The timing software that starts the clock and adds a time stamp is proprietary. As far as the camera goes, they do not recommend anything in...

    Technical question about video framerates

    Not sure if this is the best forum, but perhaps someone can help me out. I am looking for information about framerates, using standard consumer video cameras. I understand that a normal camera will operate at 30 fps. The application for which I am inquiring is track and field timing...

    Notebook HDD Recommendation

    I need a couple 2.5" hard drives for my AOpen miniPCs. I need something that runs cool and can handle high/low ambient temperatures. I'd like something that runs reasonably cool since there is basically no cooling inside the box. It will be only be used a few times per year, but it will...

    Overclocking possible on AOpen MP45 Mini-PC ?

    I bought a couple AOpen MP45 barebone kits for a project. I am not in a hurry to buy the other parts as I am waiting on deals to pop up; however, I have not decided on the specific componants yet. I would however, like to narrow my choices on the cpu and ram so I can more easily watch for...

    Looping Advice with Mutiple Radiators

    The box is there to look nice, protect expensive parts from my 3 year old son, and (hopefully) reduce the noise created by the fans. When you say "run the 2 loops in a series," do you mean "Option 1," or do you mean combine everything into one big loop?

    Wow, that blower is sexy looking!!! If I had the ability to start over, I'd go that route just for the looks alone! :) That said, I am running out of time to work on this project and can't really do a major overhaul at this point. I haven't fired them all up yet, but I'm crossing my...

    Looping Advice with Mutiple Radiators

    I started my first watercooling project, and as time went on, the budget went out the window. Then, it got downright expensive and almost silly. Now I have all these parts which are probably overkill, but since I have them, I could use some advice on radiator/loop setup. Basically, what I...

    Asus HD4870 $239.99 after $30 MIR

    I picked up two of the ASUS cards on ebay through one of mulitwave's ebay seller accounts ($300 each +16 shipping). If the mfr rebates (2 per household) and the livesearch cashback money comes through, it should be end up $406 total for two cards shipped. Unfotunately, I couldn't use the 10%...

    Yeah, just keep refreshing until it comes up. I notices the ebay link was gone, and I tried some other searches with no luck. Then I just kept hitting refresh, and eventually I got it.

    Help me build my first watercooling setup?

    It sounds like people are leaning toward two loops. If I go this direction, I am thinking of building sort of a base-station to fit under my case (I would bolt the case to it and drill a couple hole in the bottom for tubing and wires. I figure I could easily place a triple rad (maybe even...

    Help me build my first watercooling setup?

    As I had mentioned, the only part that I have actually ordered was a pump, simply because I got a good deal on it. I have a MCP655 on its way. That said, does this particular pump have enough power to keep 4 waterblocks properly fed? If I need a more powerful pump, I can go that way, or if I...

    best notebook cooling pad?

    Recommendations for High-Res Gaming in AOC

    If people think 2 x 4850's would be better, that is fine. I am assuming $100-150 for a good motherboard. However, if I have to go OVER that amount (ie like a $250-300 SLI board), then I intended to include the extra $100-150 in within my budget. The ASUS board would be within an acceptable...

    Recommendations for High-Res Gaming in AOC

    It's time for an upgrade. My laptop can play AoC at low settings, but my P4 desktop is about 4+ years old and flat out can't play it at all. I can't keep squinting at my laptop screen. I don't play FPS, only MMO's, and I plan to play AoC for the time being, so recommendations should be...

    DEAL IS DEAD: Samsung ML-2851ND for $39.99 OTD @ Office Depot

    I picked up two in Ann Arbor, MI. They were sitting out with a sign on top saying they were on clearance for $119 down from $229. They rang up as 39.99, however. Great deal. Thanks! PS - there were a LOT of printers on sale and on clearance. None were quite a steal like this, but many...

    $500 of $1249 or higher @ Dell Vostro

    I got in on a similar deal a month ago for a nicely specced 17" notebook. I've been waiting for it to come up again to get my wife a 14", and I went back and forth on the spec choices for a long time (she doesn't need anything that screams) and decided to spend a good chunk of the $1249 on...

    Question - Making Ribbon Cables

    Thanks for the help!!! I bought a few of these: http://www.winfordeng.com/products/cni9.php They had both the DB9's & the DB15's there for low prices and cheap shipping. As for the frequencies, I really have no idea. I just know that other people have used home-made ribbon serial cables...

    Question - Making Ribbon Cables

    Are Any "MMO-Type" Games open to Dial-Up?

    I have never had a significant problem playing any MMO over dial-up, including several during beta stages. I have cable at home, but when I visit my parents for an extended period of time, I will often bring a laptop to play something. They live out in the middle of nowhere and have TERRIBLE...

    [DEAD]Vostro 1500 Laptop-15.4" SXGA/T7500/1GB/8600GT/8x DVDRW

    I ordered a nicely specced Vostro 1700 for $786 (+tax..boo!) shipped. I think the 1700's have free shipping and the 120GB HD is standard. They didn't have an extra AC adapter available onlinr, but when I called in, the CSR allowed me to include it in the configuration price (thus meeting the...

    Need a highly-reliable outdoor wireless network with decent range.

    I could put a directional antenna at the camera location no-problem because it will either (a) point toward a press box in the same general location, or (b) i will set up my main computers inside the track and just use a wired setup. However, using a directional (even 180 degree) antenna at...

    Need a highly-reliable outdoor wireless network with decent range.

    Directional antennas - Do you have to have a directional in one place and a grid on the other? I could have a directional at the camera location and point it toward the press box. The press box, however would be my base of operations, and depending on the particular site, my mounting option...

    Need a highly-reliable outdoor wireless network with decent range.

    Computers D & E would typically be outdoors, under a tent, or in a small pole-barn type building, usually a couple hundred feet from the main computer "A." If computers D/E have a mediocre signal from the base of operation (computer A's location), then it is really no big deal. They are...

    Article my PhD Scientist Friend Wrote about LASIK Eye Surgery

    I had LASIK about two years ago, and I frequently tell people it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I have no "dry eye" problems at all, no problems with night driving, nothing. It's great. I was seeing 20-20 within 5 minutes of the surgery. Now, my vision is significantly better...
