In my AMD builds I now exclusively use either the Arctic Cooling Super Silent Pro or the Copper Silent TC. The Super Silent Pro is $12.99 at SVC, and the Copper Silent TC is $14.99 at SVC.
A year or so ago I decided my home office was too noisy and I wanted to quiet things down. I replaced all...
ROFL!! A Colleyvillage-idiot saying that Frisco has too few restaurants (or roads, or doctors, or grocery stores). That may be the funniest thing I've read all day. Step outside the bubble occasionally, sport, cuz right now you're yappin' outcher bunghole. :disgust: I don't live in Frisco, but...
Well, I've done a bunch of looking on the various hardware and CD/DVD sites since yesterday and that appears to be a question not unlike asking "which is the best religion?", if you know what I mean. The people who ran out and bought the Sony 500's and 510's always chime in that nothing beats...
Alright, screw it. I opened the shrinkwrap (risking the CompUSA 15% restocking fee) and installed this Buslink DVRW412RD drive.
It's a rebadged NEC ND-1300A.

I've been hunting high and low on the web to find out about this Buslink DVD+-RW drive that CompUSA has for $199AR today. Does anyone know who makes this thing? It is my understanding that Buslink rebadges everything they sell. So any ideas who made this thing? I have it sitting here in the...
If it was working and then died, and the same symptoms are occurring in two similar type drives, then I would start looking at Windows or hardware drivers. It has been nearly half a decade since I played seriously with 98SE so I don't know how much help I can be on specifics. Did you run any...
When you are troubleshooting it is always a long shot that there are two broken devices all the sudden at the same time. But that doesn't mean it is impossible. As Sherlock Holmes said in The Beryl Coronet, "When you eliminate the impossible, whatever you have left, no matter how improbable...
Is Norah going to be available at *EVERY* store? I can't imagine there's much of her to go around. And this is a **SMOKING HOT** deal since for $9.99 you're getting a 23-year old chick who just won 5 Grammys. I'm sure that investment would pay off really quickly!!
They have the deep hidden pockets inside both regular pockets, but the little hidden zipper on the leg is only on the right side. I have at least five pairs of these around here and love them. $10.99 is a screaming deal. I like the Dockers Go-Khakis better though.

Ramuser, Go check the CompUSA web site. That Toshiba Bluetooth PC Card (SKU 285816) is only $29.88. Sounds like the big Mesquite sale is going to rip you off for $0.11. :D

Can I use a $100 of $0 coupon I found on another site? I could really use $100 and a new laptop. If these people don't have one in stock for me, I'm never shopping at Staples again.

Okay, here's a cooling-newbie question for you then -- what do you use to obtain cooling information at a "full load"? I've never had to care about this before. What software does that kind of test?
I ran 3DMark2K1 and got a 6842 on the first run (needs some tweaking) and then immediately...
I've been lurking around these forums for awhile and I'm always impressed by how you guys are cranking your machines up to incredible speeds and using phenomenally imaginative solutions to cool them back down. I've built quite a few machines in the past few years for myself and others, and I...
Ordered one case Sunday, Dec 1. Case shipped Tuesday, Dec 3. Case delivered Friday, Dec 6.
Good luck to those of you who were smart enough to stock up on this cool case. Wish I'd ordered a few more at that price.

It seems like all the competing companies have "tiered" their product offerings to where there is no one right answer to your question. Each company seems to have several tiers of products that will be the "best card for the money" depending on (a) what you're trying to do with your video card...
So that one store near where you live in oh, say, Anchorage, Alaska (we'll have to guess since it seems to be such a big secret), had some of these and you bought them all. I was in the Staples in Lewisville, TX, yesterday and I looked in the clearance aisle. There were none of these. This...
I was wondering too, so I looked it up. Here's the answer...
Dragon Ultra includes:
- RAID controller
- 6 channel audio instead of 4-channel on the Lite
- Adjustable AGP voltage
- Onboard Ethernet
- Onboard USB 2.0
But this 2100+ and Dragon Lite combo looks like a very nice deal to me. I may...
And while you smart people are answering Rais' question, can you also include an analysis of the 128mb versions of each of those chipsets? I came to this forum with the exact same question... :)
TIA,

I've been doing business with Discount Tire here in North Texas for years and have had nothing but absolutely outstanding service from them. I used to be wary of the road hazard warranty but I bought it one time and it paid for itself within a few months. Since then I've always taken the road...
Yeah HamtonP, if you live in Valley Ranch you're going to be mere minutes away from the new Fry's when it opens. I'm sure you've seen it going up over there next to the new Home Depot, right? Can't wait...

Speaking of Tech Depot, does anyone know the relationship between Tech Depot and www.computers4sure.com? I did a PriceGrabber search the other day and the best deal was at C4S. When I clicked on their site, I noticed the little "An Office Depot Company" logo at the top. I was in OD yesterday and...
YOW! I got the $39.99 24x burner too.
Too bad I just bought that 40x12x48 Lite-On for $48 shipped (no rebates, no coupons) from Dell last weekend...
:D

Anyone know what software is bundled with this drive? I can't seem to find it on BB or DR's sites.
Is this a decent drive? I need another cheap one.
Thanks,
Acme
I did a search and saw several similar deals but none exactly like this. Picked this up today at OD:
Linksys BEFSR41 (v.2) $79.99
PM to BB.com's "Special" price to get it for $59.99
Use $20 off $50 coupon
Add the $10 MIR
Final price = $33.29

How do they measure that statistic? Do people actually write that on the census forms? Or do they have special people going door-to-door to ask the question? Do they call you at home and ask?
Did you know that 94% of all statistics people throw out in conversation are completely made up? :D

No way, the three-man goal is the only way to play. If you don't have a three-man goal then you pretty much have to have the table with the corners sloped up to keep the ball from dying there. And those tables are no fun. Three-man goal is the only way. Besides, that's the kind that's sitting in...
We stayed in the MGM Grand Emerald Tower last summer. We were in the very last rooms on the "Strip" end of the hotel. We got down to the valet and I realized that I'd left the valet ticket back in the room. I told everyone to wait, that I would just "run back up" and get the ticket (any of you...
