    looking for a laptop for a consultant

    Thanks for the suggestions. I apologize for my ignorance, but how do you exactly distinguish between the business and non-business machines?

    looking for a laptop for a consultant

    He said that sometimes he picks it up and it will shut down or sometimes it will shut down just sitting there. Also, apparently has issues printing or playing internet radio unless he reboots. A couple times during a busy day, it gets hung up loading a large word or pdf doc. He travels...

    Mid-range DAW PC, light gaming

    Given that this will be my processor, any thoughts on whether I should go with the same recommended motherboard, or should I go with the one in the mid-range recommendation for more "future-proofing"? I hadn't originally planned on overclocking, but I guess if it's relatively safe these days...

    Mid-range DAW PC, light gaming

    I just decided to go with the i7 3770K deal at Buy.com. Basically, $250 after the first-time customer and rewards points. I'm thinking of just going with the integrated graphics for now since I've likely gone over budget on the processor. This processor should last me longer too.

    Mid-range DAW PC, light gaming

    That should be plenty of usb ports for my needs. Here's the hard drive I have already: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152245

    Mid-range DAW PC, light gaming

    Looks like that processor isn't bad for gaming too, right? Might be good for future needs. So many choices!!! Thanks again.

    Mid-range DAW PC, light gaming

    Great to know. So is an i7 in my particular application overkill or just out of the budget? Also, is dual channel memory the way to go?

    Mid-range DAW PC, light gaming

    Sounds good. I'm thinking that I could probably go with something more basic for video. What's the minimum I would want to run to not have any issues with HD video at my resolution and at least get by ok with games like GTA IV? Actually, pardon my ignorance, but with this type of processor...

    Mid-range DAW PC, light gaming

    Great, thanks! The recording interfaces go through USB. I should have also mentioned that I will likely be using the Reaper recording software, as well as multiple plug ins. That's why I was thinking 16 gig of ram might be beneficial. Thanks again!

    Mid-range DAW PC, light gaming

    Hello, I haven't built a PC in way too long, but I'm planning on building something soon. I'm looking to build something with pretty decent DAW capabilities and some light gaming. I'm primarily a guitar player, but also mess with keyboards and drums some. I was thinking an i7 (not sure...

    historical graphic benchmarks?

    Heck, I remember my two Voodoo 2 cards running in SLI just for "3D" graphics. That was on my 400 mhz 0entium. Life was so much simpler then. *sigh* LOL

    After looking at that chart more, I'm realizing that some of our systems our like the one in the commercial where the couple comes home and everything was stolen except for their old computer!

    historical graphic benchmarks?

    I know, I know, it's crazy, but I was kind of curious and I guess part of me wants to have some justification for upgrading the older system. :) I guess I also wanted to know if, say, an integrated ATI Radeon HD 4250 GPU in a current motherboard, would meet or exceed the existing performance...

    historical graphic benchmarks?

    You all are going to laugh at this, but I'm curious how to compare the performance of one of my PCs (Athlon 64 3200+) that has an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro to some more current systems, including both integrated graphics options these days, as well as separate graphics cards. Do such historical...

    Just won a $500 newegg gift card... help me spend it!

    Actually, Newegg does sell some of the Dell monitors: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...e=&srchInDesc= The UltraSharps they seem to sell would likely take up your whole gift card and then some though.

    Gmail w/ Microsoft Outlook

    I'm pretty sure you can configure Outlook to only sync when you want it to. Can't remember the specific place you change the setting, but you can tell it which accounts to include in Send/Receive and I think you can make it do it manually. You might want to look through this link to compare...

    Gmail w/ Microsoft Outlook

    Not doubting you, but I'm just curious, with IMAP, will this really function as a backup? I'm not sure if IMAP syncs every time with the Google server or not. Basically, if you were one of the several thousand people that apparently recently lost a bunch of gmail messages, I'm not sure if this...

    Three PC build for family gaming.

    I'm not sure what this means. Does this mean buying a used copy of Windows 7? What type of lower OS could be used to still play all these games? Just curious. Thanks!

    BUFFALO WHR-G54S wireless router $25 AR free shipping

    Anyone know of a good source of information for how to extend the range? I've got a Netgear WGR614v4 that works well, but has crappy range from basement to first level of house. I'm hoping I can get better range/signal with this Buffalo doo-hickey. :) Thanks!

    MP3 Player

    How about if you're playing one of those playlists, turn the player off for like 8 hours and then turn the player back on? Does the E250 remember where it was playing in that playlist?

    MP3 Player

    Thanks for the reply. How about if you wait, say 8 or 9 hours? My problem with my Zen Micro Photo is I have a huge playlist of a bunch of songs and it's annoying to walk out to the car after work and have it start back at the beginning of the playlist rather than where it left off. Can...

    I've got the Zen Micro Photo 8GB. I've got a problem with it where it doesn't remember where it left off in a playlist after more than about two hours. This is VERY annoying. Creative is saying it's a problem and I can pay $25 to have them check it out. Amazon will let me return it for 80%...

    The thing that's kind of crappy, GoGamer's sale email stated the price of Q4 DVD as $34.90, but it definitely shows up as $36.90 on their site. $2 is $2

    *sigh* Yep, down for me in Maryland this morning too. This is my first outage! Weird thing was, some people called late last night and must have left messages. My phone was indicating voicemail messages, but I could not get a dial tone. :confused:

    problems with Remote Desktop

    It is definitely possible. How can I test this? Unfortunately, I can't just ask the network people, as they probably wouldn't want to support this.

    problems with Remote Desktop

    My company recently moved me to a different physical location. At my previous location, I could use Remote Desktop (client, not web version) on a W2K PC to connect to my home XP Pro PC without any issues. Now, when I try to connect, I get one of the following errors (seems to toggle between...
