Inspiron 1100 woes

How old is it? If its fairly new, then you shouldnt have any problem contacting dell and obtaining their help. If its between 2-3 years old, you probably only need to get a new battery. Li-ion batteries are designed to last between 500-800 charge cycles, appx. 2 years. What exactly happened...

Semi-Finalized computer parts

Yeah.. I have given the ATI Trade-Up program before. It doesnt seem to be worth it. A new X800XL from Newegg is just around $300(USD). Instead, I think that if you take some good pictures, and give a nice description for your current video card on ebay, you should be able to sell it for more...

Freeware programs and applications

There is a wonderful program called mp3mymp3, its free, and the fun thing about it is that it records any sound that goes through your sound card. Its actually quite useful, for recording sound from a radio show, or webcast.

Whats the deal with ThinkPads?!

Hi guys! I'm new to this forum and just thought that i'll give my two cents on this topic. You have to understand that names like Apple and IBM offer security and reliability to consumers. Apple offers a wonderful OS, and IBM has its own features added onto their thinkpads. I...
