    can't decide - Dell s2415h or u2415

    I suppose worst case I can try the cheaper s2415h and if the glare is too much when I get them, just return then and try the Ultrasharps. We have a plasma in the living room which has big windows in the back and the glare can often be very annoying, so yeah, if that does in fact happen at my...

    can't decide - Dell s2415h or u2415

    Hi group, I need a couple new monitors - one of my home PC and one for my work PC. These will be side by side on my desk. These will be used 98% for email/web/MS Office, etc. The other 2% I might play a game here and there. I found the s2415h at BestBuy open box, so a pair of those comes out...

    New gigabit desktop switch showing half duplex

    I still haven't gotten a chance to move the new switch next to the router and test a new cable - it's on the to do list. But yeah, dang, I didn't know about the soldi conductor requirement for a 50ft cable run. this is the one I got, seemed to be really well rated...

    New gigabit desktop switch showing half duplex

    from the router to the switch, its 50ft. from the 2 PCs to the switch, they are 3ft cables. And yes, swapping cables and ports on the switch, I can always get the laptop to light up green 1000M. I went to Dell to see if there was an update for the LAN port, but everything is up to date...

    New gigabit desktop switch showing half duplex

    thanks for the idea. I did swap the smaller cables between the switch and PC (and even pulled out another - I bought a 5 pack) and it's the same. So the issue seems to be with the hardware, at either end, which I can't seem to change much that I'm aware of. Especially at the router and the...

    New gigabit desktop switch showing half duplex

    Hi all, I just got a Trendnet 5-port desktop switch and a couple of the link, which I think, should be showing up as 1000M are amber (not green), which means they are 10/100. Anything else I can check? Link 1 is a new cat6 cable from my Linksys E4200 router to the switch port 1. Link light is...

    Chromebox or FireTV for XMBC/Openelec

    I found this a little while ago and he mentions PlayOn, too. I'm not sure if this applies to ChromeBox or FIreTV or a real Linux/Windows version of XBMC. http://mymediaexperience.com/xbmc-guide/

    Chromebox or FireTV for XMBC/Openelec

    I know I'm bumping an old thread, but I think it's still relevant. I have the same dilemma, but would like to integrate Netflix, Hulu, maybe Amazon Prime. Can I put a plugin for XBMC for these other services and run them all on the Chromebox?

    Dell UltraSharp vs something cheaper (non-gaming)

    Thanks for the thoughts. So I should look for something with an ips panel? I don't think I care about viewing angles, as i sit in front of both monitors on my desk, but I do want crisp fronts and vibrant colors. I guess maybe I thought the ultrasharp models were for gaming.

    Dell UltraSharp vs something cheaper (non-gaming)

    Hi group, I'm in the market for a pair of 24" monitors for my office setup. Here, I have my work PC and my main desktop, where I mostly do MS Office, web browsing, etc. Very, very light gaming and no movie watching. I've always heard such great things about the Dell Ultasharp LCD's. I...

    27" monitors - is 1080 (vs 1440) ok for a non-gamer?

    As long as the GPU handles duallink DVI, I should be ok right if I don't game? I was looking at the 5450's and they appear to support the resolution and have been more than adequate for my gaming in the past. Maybe not at 1440p though. I'm really not sure what to do. A $150 24" montior does...

    27" monitors - is 1080 (vs 1440) ok for a non-gamer?

    If the price difference was maybe $100, I would jump on 1440, but from what I'm seeing, unless you want to gamble with one of the Monoprice Korean version, they're about double in price.

    27" monitors - is 1080 (vs 1440) ok for a non-gamer?

    my 24" monitor just died and I was considering stepping it up a notch to a 27" monitor. I've been reading and see a lot of people say to go for the 2560 rez 27" monitors, and while that would be nice, they are significantly more money. I don't game much at all, if any. Will one of the 1080...

    wifi hotspot without the internet access - how?

    thanks! That looks pretty neat. I also came across the Raspberry Pi, which appears that it can do something like this to, although will take some work to get that up and running.

    wifi hotspot without the internet access - how?

    Hi all, I'm interested in setting up a wifi hotspot so devices can connect, but I'm not interested in internet access for the connected devices. Really, what I'd like is for my wifi-only (non-3g) Kindle Fire HD, iPad or Win7 laptop could act as a hotspot and connect devices together. Is...

    predefined fitness routine - can I add to it?

    is this isolation technique the same as "splits"? I was doing some reading last nite and kept seeing that word. I'm ok with staying away from the Smith. As a novice user, it seemed like a nice machine. Glad I asked and read up a little.

    predefined fitness routine - can I add to it?

    Gym is a local resort/hotel that we are a member of. I'd say its a semi-nice hotel gym. It's got a smith machine, cable station, a large assortment of dumbbells as well as 10-12 various nautilus type stations. I don't know at this point I'm ready to join another gym since we're paying a...

    predefined fitness routine - can I add to it?

    Money won't be the issue, but space for all that might be. I suppose I could try and cram it in the garage, but that's already packed and the wife would really like to get one of the cars in there eventually. Yeah, I did enough reading that I know I want to stay away from the smith machine...

    predefined fitness routine - can I add to it?

    Thanks for the reply. I spent the last hour or two reading around the StrongLifts site. I signed up and got his report. Even thought I've never spent a lot of time in the gym, I've always learned that you needed to isolate the muscles and do a lot of different movements in order to hit them...

    Is MOCA for me?

    Yeah, imagoon, I wondered about that, too. I wondered how far out that signal would be going. Going to do a little more reading on MOCA, but I might be onto Plan B. Sure wish I had run a hardwire when we were doing construction. Now, if I want to do that, I have to put a couple penetrations...

    Considering new router(s) -- 802.11n???

    hey guys, I'm getting ready to order a E4200 also. I hope this question may benefit some others, too. Are there any wireless adapters that you guys would recommend for the dual band 4200? I have a desktop (PCI?) and a laptop (USB?) that I think I'd like to update.

    Router: Looking for a SOHO / high-ish-end consumer router

    I'm not sure if the Netgear meets all of OP's requirements, but that's the one (WDNR3700 or 3800) I was kinda thinking about. Although the Cisco looks nice, too.

    AMD PC with SSD or Intel with no SSD?

    you can get a i5-2300 in the 8300 series from Dell, they start at around $749. Of course, no 15%-20% coupons from the Dell Outlet (which is what I was looking at - all those prices quoted above would be before discount). I don't suppose $749 is out of reach, although its hitting the upper...

    DSL -> cable migration, internet isn't working

    Thanks, I'll check on the PPPoE setting and see what that looks like. To be honest, all I've really ever done there is set up some printers and added a NAS drive. The guy that use to work there set up the router and all that, so I've never been in the router. But he's gone now so I'll head...
