Recommend an office chair that won't break

Another vote for an Aeron. Buy it from an authorized dealer and not eBay and it will be replaced if it breaks.

Fscking surveyors!!!!!

I side with the homeowner. This house was bought in good faith, now the builder has a problem and is trying to dump some new rules on him after the deal was done. Ryan (or his parents) have every right to refuse this new deal as it does nothing for them, and from the sound of it, would have kept...

Rice cooker suggestions?

Thanks everyone, I was wondering if the Fuzzy Logic capability was worth the extra. I ended up getting one between the 2 recommended. A Tiger JAE-A10U. It has fuzzy logic and is made in Japan.

Rice cooker suggestions?

Anyone have any suggestions? I really don't want a $200 model unless nothing else compares at all. I also do not need a very big one, will be cooking small amounts normally.

Please help with static route between 2 subnets

Thanks for the reply cleverhandle. I'm trying to do this without touching the AR410. It belongs to my ISP and I'm not supposed to dork with it. Technically I probably could without them getting too mad, but I think you see with my lack of networking skills I really shouldn't. I think both...

Most Difficult Video Game Ever?

All of them were pretty hard for me, but when I was having to pump quarters to play, Dragon's Lair seemed the toughest. Plus the fact that is cost twice as much to play. Three attempts at the first scene and I was usually gone.

HOLY CRAP: I think I may be 1 of the 11 in the US with SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome)!!!!

madcowz I do hope you get better. When you do, be sure to negotiate with them on those bills. Usually an insurance company pays about 25% - 50% of a hospitals "retail" rate. A medical facility is usually willing to give you the same insurance rate, since it means you will probably pay instead...

Wireless router suggestions

I recently picked up the DLink combo deal. 614+ router & 650 cardbus. I am sending it back. The range is horrible at my house, 20ft through 1 wall. Looking for suggestions for range. I suspect my problem is more in the card than the router.

Are these symptoms of a dead cpu?

I came home from work last night and my computer would not boot. I have a p3-700 with a soyo-7vca MB. At power-on, the bios correctly reports a p3-700, but locks at the "checking memory" step. Reading the diagnostic LEDs tells me that the MB is stuck trying to initialize the L2 cache. I am not...

I think you set it at the lowest setting that doesn't flicker. Everyone's eyes are different, some people might see no flicker at 70, while others still see it at 75. My eyes tend to see flicker at much higher rates than my coworkers. Its hard to convince someone that a screen it unreadable if...
