    sticking with 1920x1200 too. for lower resolutions, you might want to try enabling cleartype to improve the blurry text issue (assuming you use windows xp). http://www.microsoft.com/typog...rtype/tuner/Step1.aspx

    Acer X241WSD 24" LCD for $317

    Just received mine this morning and very happy with the purchase -- no dead pixels and looks damn good with 1080i OTA content. Even assuming this is a TN panel, the viewing angles are quite good and not as bad some of the samsung ones I've seen.

    "Intel can do no wrong! Check out the new AT review on Q6600 GO stepping. Even with a minimal performance and heat benefit over B3, Intel gets good review!" Yawn...get thee fanboy self out of here. People like you are just annoying and that's coming from a long-time AMD user (until recently)...

    Acer X241WSD 24" LCD for $317

    the specs shown on Best Buy are different from others, including from those people who have already purchased one and indicate that it most likely is a TN screen. I don't think the AL2416WBsd is a replacement model - the xseries was only recently announced while the former has been out for a...

    *HOT* Western Digital 250GB PATA (WD2500JBRTL) @ Fry's / Outpost

    Guess Oupost is still using an older value. Actually, the sticker price on the retail box at Fry's did say 159, but read 119 when rung up at the register. Two rebates were applied on top of that...hopefully, outpost will update their value soon.

    ARRGGH Coupons have yet to work for me

    Sometimes the coupons only apply to specific areas of Dell - e.g.- Small Business (usually), Home Office etc. In order to use a SB coupon for example, you have to browse to the product via the 'Small Business' link on Dell homepage. There might be other reasons for this error of course, but I've...

    thermaltake tsunami case with windows no pu $69.99 after rebate!!at compusa!!

    Hauppage TV Tuners, what's the diffence between them?

    Bought the Sapphire version of this board recently. Although I haven't used it with MCE, I've had very good results with capping programs from cable channels. Most current reviews recommend the 550 chipset over Hauppages. I think the recent Xtasy bundle is supposed to be the best as it comes...

    TONIGHT'S WOOT - Um.. you decide... IBM Thinkpad T22 Intel Pentium 900 Notebook with DVD $399

    Not personally own, but I have used a T42 on a regular basis. I did think it was very good, but there was no way I could have justified the added expense of buying it compared to my experience with other Dell/Gateway/Micron laptops I've used. This was primarily when I used to work in tech...

    TONIGHT'S WOOT - Um.. you decide... IBM Thinkpad T22 Intel Pentium 900 Notebook with DVD $399

    Again, I am NOT disputing the fact that Thinkpads are good - just that they are expensive and hence do offer very good value/price (esp for college students). The Sony/Bose comparison was made towards the "simply because a brand is popular or has a good image, it is worth the extra money"...

    TONIGHT'S WOOT - Um.. you decide... IBM Thinkpad T22 Intel Pentium 900 Notebook with DVD $399

    I'm aware IBM thinkpads are very good, however, they are still expensive compared to other products with similar specs. Many people simply have this notion that simply because a brand is popular or has a good image, it is worth the extra money. This also applies to Sony and Bose especially.

    Well, here it is finally

    Not on my home PC right now, but as far as I can remember, I don't think it is possible to use regular screws on the drives. This is mainly due to the larger holes needed to hold the dampening pads that the thumbscrews go into. However, the pads can be removed very easily, so you can try and...

    Well, here it is finally

    Not a dedicated buyer of any one brand - my previous cards were an ATI Radeon 9600 Pro and a Matrox G200 :) The 6800GT is really quite good though and I have no problems playing BF2 in high quality settings.

    Well, here it is finally

    Don't have any fan controllers in my system, so not sure how the drive bays will affect that. The internal bay can hold 4 HDs using thumbscrews and there is a decent amount of space between the drives in this configuration. However, note that it was very difficult to achieve this (holding all...

    Well, here it is finally

    Yeah, my main reason for choosing for A8N mobo was because its been around the longest and is generally considered very stable. Another note about the case: even though it is somewhat cramped, the design is quite well done so there are definitely no problems with cooling. Currently have 4 HDs, 2...

    good pvr

    Spent quite a bit of time researching this when I bought my own card. Based on the reviews at the time (about 2 months back), the ATI Theatre 550 chipset was considered better than the Hauppage cards (although I'm sure there are many who prefer this brand). I personally got the Sapphire version...
