IE, Firefox, and Trillian stuck in Italic fonts

I'm probably overlooking something simple to fix this, but somehow the other night my fonts were put into italics mode for default fonts. So most web pages, instant messenger dialog boxes show italics fonts. It's driving me nuts. While I type this it's not italics, but I know when I read...

Check your mail for Bestbuy Catalog

I work for the Geek Squad, too... home of the bad technicans who don't know jack! ;) Nah it's cool, I was skeptical too. Then I used to personally fix 20-30 computers daily (100% start to finish including diagnostics) when I worked in the store before being promoted. As you can imagine, it...

Symantec Offers Free Anti-Spyware Beta

That's so funny Microsoft would give that software away for free. It's like saying, "Hey, we at Microsoft love you, so we're going to 'upgrade' your system with *FREE* security software, so now your Windows based PC may be almost secure! Don't you love us?" People eat it up like Microsoft...

Anyway to select VGA or DVI out on 9800 Pro?

I've got a Radeon 9800 Pro Ultimate that I'm trying to run on a VGA monitor and a 51" HDTV (occasionally). I bought a DVI -> HDMI cable and it works great... except: 1) I am having a hard time switching between the two displays -- it wants to extend my desktop which obviously isn't ideal...

The Sims: Sound issues

Okay I'm posting this for my girlfriend, because I'd much rather play Doom3 or Farcry than The Sims, but she can't get enough of it. Anyway, on my desktop (WinXp, P4 2.0, SB Live, Radeon 9800 Pro), The Sims has some major weird echo problem (it doesn't sound right at all, just sounds...

Logitech Driving Force Pro steering wheel- $75 shipped!

I ordered mine last week. It came within a few days. It was factory reconditioned so it didn't include the original box but did include all manuals. This thing is AWESOME. It's "made" for Gran Turismo 4, but works on all racing games for PS2 it seems. Officially the 900 degree mode isn't made...

100 Cardinal Poker Chips (casino weight) $9.99 (Toys R Us)

Spending $40 on Ebay won't get you much. The shipping on most of the chipsets is like $40 or $50 or more alone. They seem like great deals until the shipping kicks in.

"Deposit a minimum of $100 into your NEW Aztec Riches Poker account" -- eh, that seems to be the only major issue JuryDuty. I play on Pacificpoker and Partypoker and have a ton of money to flop around. Maybe I'll put some into Aztec for the free chips. Thanks.

100 Cardinal Poker Chips (casino weight) $9.99 (Toys R Us)

Actually, the shipping on Ebay kills the deal and the 600 chips look identical to these anyway. The Ebay people almost always charge $30 shipping for those cases, and they end for $25-35 or so usually... also a lot of the Ebay auctions that end for this price are 9g chips, not 11.5g. So this...

WAIT! Don't buy that one just yet... I know it says heavy weight chips but it looks like the one I bought at WalMart that had ~3g chips instead of 11g chips. The thing is, the package of the Walmart one didn't say heavy weight. I wish I could see a picture of the box of the Amazon one...

These isn't a sale price but I figured I would post a quick topic since I looked everywhere for cheap chips. If someone finds this item cheaper, let me know. On Ebay you can buy large quantities of full weight, clay chips for roughly $0.15 - $0.25/chip, shipped. This seemed pricey still, so I...

What do you think would happen if I disputed the charges on my CC? I am outraged and I know there's probably nothing I can do about it. So, it's only $20, but still, that's a large enough chunk of change to piss me off. :)

Smoking! Verizon LG6000 Picture Phone FAR in Wisconsin and Illinois

In my experience (~6 years w/ mobile phones), at least here in the So-Cal area, Verizon is by far the best. They cost a bit more and don't offer some features like "first minute free" or rollover bonuses, but the coverage is great. Most of my friends that didn't have Verizon when I met them have...
