Well as a So. Californian who is still has a dimple in the back of his thigh the size of a quarter from a female Black Widow bite. I say to you good luck with that. The overnight hospital stay was not fun while they tried to stabilize my blood pressure. The ball of blood and fluids was...

I have got to get an undo button for my memory. I let it slip by until someone added the word Cheeto's to it. I just trashed the open bag. Think I will buy a new keyboard tomorrow since Cheeto's are probably in this one. Pounds you say ??? I hope those were free sites. Anyhow to add to...

if you want 0.1 degree then I hope you have deep pockets. The $100 range units are 1 to 2 degree resolution. The fact that it is digital even affects accuracy because of slight hand movements affect the ranging count. If you can stand 1 degree then you are looking for a narrow field unit...

It is not grounding that is important, it is difference of electrical potential that is important. If you have a zero difference of potential then current does not flow. If your body has 600 volts on it which is about the norm when wearing clothes :) and your case is sitting at 600 volts then...

They are anti-theft screws, lots of builders are starting to put them on the back of PC cases. Fry's carries them in the standard deluxe set of bit heads for about $10 to $15. You can also find them at most automotive stores with a large selection of tools and again at large electronics parts...

RAM is on its way back up in the spot market now. Trade projections in CRN and others predict 30 percent next month. That would be the cyclic back to school fall market.

If you double click on the drive icon in Computer you will see the ready boost file if it is using one. Directory of H: 06/23/2007 12:01 AM 296 WMPInfo.xml 07/08/2007 02:48 AM 912,261,632 ReadyBoost.sfcache 2 File(s) 912,261,928 bytes...

Unless you already have a product in your hand with name, I believe that you still have an error. Partition Magic is a trademark of Powerquest Inc. Powerquest was acquired by Symantec in 2005 and that would have been the last independent version. Considering that Symantec probably has much...

Most of the all in one's skimp on the scanner section. They assume that you want a copy machine basically. Get a separate scanner this should fit your needs with twice the color depth and twice the optical resolution of your Photosmart choice...

Well personally I don't think that you can go wrong with Seagates new Freeagent series. The only drawback is they are not stackable like Western Digitals Mybook series. I have a Mybook at work and it looks like a hard back book fro the wide edges with the top botton and back full of convection...

I don't know about him but you just made a sale for newegg. I hate most of the fat laser mice and prefer the more traditional style. I have a couple of lasers that I quit using because of the grip. That mouse looks perfect to me and the black body and yellow orange glow probably will match my...

I have the same unit and there is no poping sound it is pretty much dead silent just the sci-fi effect like pulsating yellow light strip to let you know it is working. I also have dual internal SATA 7200.10 500G drives no popping sound there either. Normally a popping sound is an attempt...

they could have had a bad run of the custom IC that lights the Leds. More than likely it is a PAL with latches and may have been mis-programmed. Unfortunately Crucial does not offer a standard spec sheet online which shows the logic. They do offer this ... If I had to guess they are...

The folks over on slashdot have tracked down some info. It seems to have something to do with the TLB (Translation Lookaside Buffer) which is used to map virtual to real addresses. Random events such as hangs, blue screens or the mouse and keyboard stop responding etc. I have had all of the...
