Cheap Doc Martens

slag: i had that problem with my keneth cole shoes. they were cutting in right on the bottom of my anckle. i solved the problem by getting a pair of gel heel inserts. that elevated my feet just enough that my anckle wasnt rubbing anymore. maybe try something like that if you dont want to return...

Most iPods on Sale At Amazon

nice find. i just ordered one last night with the educational discount. came out to $294 with tax, but it will ship this week, as opposed to amazon's shipping of August 16 or later. so ill stick to the apple store purchace. good deal though for those without the edu discount.

How long can you run an Athlon XP mobile without a heatsink/fan?

wow, i honestly cannot fathom why on earth you would have done that. im sorry that you had to learn it the hard way. i guess it isnt as obvious as i thought. tough break but lesson learned i guess.

Getting a good PSU for overclocking A64 3000+ with my setup, Thanks!

just get the Fortron 530. its enough power that you wont have to worry "do i have enough?", its cheap, its QUALITY. i was sooo close to buying an Antec True550, but then i did a lot (a LOT) of reading, on many different forums, many different reviews, and realized that for the money Fortron is...

newegg evga 6800

how is it a hard choice to trade a 9800pro for a 6800? for no extra money? thats a freakin no brainer. not only are you getting a better card for free, but you will be able to sell it for more later on down the line when you want to upgrade again. its win win, unless you dont have a suitable...

the abit does have dual channel DDR. what have you heard about the DFI board that makes you stray away from it? im currently trying to decide between the DFI and the Abit and am leaning toward the DFI. curious to know what you've heard about it.
