Would the above mentioned combo be better than either of the 2 setups I have now???
Setup 1. Asus P4S533 Onboard 5.1 Sound (CMi-8738) and Altec Lansing ADA-880 speakers
Setup 2. Game Surround Fortissimo 2 Card and Labtec Pulse 424 Speakers.
My main concern is gaming and cpu usage followed...
All these comparisons between the Audigy and the Santa Cruz.. but what about compared to the Hercules Fortissimo 2. I own the Fortissimo 2 and I am building a new machine.. so Im curious if this card is better.
I also have a site hosted through Gary. Not only did I read all the posts here before signing up , but I know Garys bandwidth is reliable.. I sold it to him ; ). He co-los a few of the servers he hosts on with a company I usd to work for. They have a very solid backbone and a 99.??% uptime.
Must just be in my area then. Ive been told the same thing by 3 different people from 2 different stores. Hmm
Oh well, I took advantage while I could. Good thing my Office Depot takes Staples coupons. ;))
Went into Staples yesterday to price match an Epson 820 Photo Stylus printer. Their price was $99 and the net price was $83 and then I wanted to use the $15 off $75 coupon. The manager (whom Ive known for years) explained that he had just gotten back from a managers meeting and they were...
Yes I printed out the page, took it in, the called to verify it was new and then pricematched it. Staples will PM 110% to any online or local competitor.
Original thread was over at FW posted by abcdefghijklmn

Staples has the camera for $752.99
I had them PM to Broadway to $399 (can also PM HERE for $407. Staples added $5 for shipping. Then I used a $40 coupon, after 8% tax total was $355.43
$752.99
-$383.89 (PM amuont was $404.00)

Sweet deal man, I actually did get priced matched to 110% so my receipt looks like this.
279.88
110% price guarntee $149 -$144.08
Subtotal $135.90
Staples coupon NO. XXXXX -$30.00
Tax 8.00% $8.47
TOTAL $114.37
so for me after rebate will be $84.37, but I put $90 in the topic since its hard to...
I couldnt find a printable either so here is what I have done and did per the managers request at staples. I go online and add the item i want to my cart (in this case the item inst listed so just go online and add anything over $150) then check out and enter in the code which then reflects the...
It is slightly curved, its not TRUE flat like an LCD or like the trinitron monitors. It has a slight curve to it, not much of one though and its very clear and sharp. I bought the Philps 109b which is a TRUE flat and I do not like even though it was retailed at $100 more than the NEC. Personal...
Changing the price would be deceitful, obvously so would removing the word "reconditioned" but my statement was "Since there is already another site offering a non reconditioned one for $149" youre not actualy altering the price. I printed out the one from pricewatch and took it in as is and it...
Msg editted so as not to offend those who misunderstood my meaning. As I stated below, I do not suggest doing anything deceitful or dishonest.

You just stepped over the line. You are soliciting fraud. Another post like this could be your last on our forums.

You can find $30 off $150 coupons at mmost of the popular coupon sites. I dont think youre allowed to post links or something like that but if you ask around, someone will prolly hook you up.
price matching and coupons are sometimes a pain in the ass. Luckily for me the managers at mine arent too bad. DOing it over the phone would be impossible as you have to provide proof of the coupon and of the price match.
if you fill it out online I think it just lets you print out the filled out versin and you still have to mail it in. If you choose print it out, you have to fill it in with a pen and mail it in. Either option is the same.

Dont flame me if it dont work for you but it did for me.
Staples has it for $279
110% Pricematch to internet for $149
add your paperclips and use $30 coupon = $120
30 MIR = 90+ tax
Hope it work for you.
Dunno if Im allowed to say, but do a search for NEC Multisync 95 on pricewatch, also if you look on other price engines you can find 2 other places selling it for $150 but one of those it says refurb I think. I printed out all 3 to be safe and he only looked at the first one I showed him.

Ok question, is there a difference between ATA-100/66 cables and ATA-133 cables? Im using an ATA-133 Drive on an ATA-133 controller card, but Im using an ATA-100 cable. I like the silver cables, but I like the single device ATA-100/66 and wanna know if those are ok, or if there really is an...

Ive got this board and the TX2 controller. To get it to find your drives, you have to turn off ACPI in the bios. AFter its off, reinstall your TX2 Raid card and boot normally. After a few boots you can try reenabling ACPI if you want, it works most of the time.
Problem solved
I own the ADA880r (r is for the remote I think)
Ive had them over a year now and let me just say THEY ROCK.
Very clear and crisp, but the 15lb subwoofer takes the cake. Ive had neighbors come over and ask me t turn the radio down, that is was shaking their walls, and there is a good 20ft...

<< The Lite-ON you speak of on Newegg is the same model # as the HP I just got in the HP deal, its a rebadged Lite-On. >>
So, HP has stopped using Sony drives? >>
No idea, all I know is this new 12ri model is a Lite-On
<< Just called, they're out of the scanner. I'm going tomorrow to see if the manager will give me an IOU. Did you just give them the Code, or did u print out a Coupon? I can't find the print out, if you have it, please give me a link. Thanks :-) >>
Due to Staples giving me a hard time...
<< Unclebud:
Lot of people are recommending Newegg's 12X lite-on. It's 72 plus 4 shipping and no tax outside CA. 12X Lite-on There's also two different LG (Goldstar), CDRW's at Best buy. One's an 8x/4X/32X for 79.99 with free shipping and 30 rebate. It only has a 2 mb buffer but it works well. I...
To make the deal even sweeter, I just plugged it in and the drive is a LTR-1201B I even checked the writing on the drive to confirm this , so its a Lite-On rebadged. Cant go wrong there.
To get it from STaples for $80 just do this
Drive = $119.98
Scanner = $79.98
Paperclips =.17
Coupon = $40 off $200
Rebate = $79.98 (Scanner is free after MIR)
Total is $80
I just came home, did the deal at my local Staples but they were out of the scanner. Manager sold me the package and I...

according to that link from their site, the HP CD12ri supports "HP Buffer Underun Prevention Technology"
So either way Burn Proof or Just Link, apparently both are just as good if you read the review from the link posted earlier.
