I got in on Dreamhost's level 3 hosting plan when it was half price ($19.99 a month, or $15.99 a month for two years), and that rate stuck, but I don't think this deal does. It's also worth noting that your storage and bandwidth go up every week. (I'm up to 18gb of storage.) And they're...

I have plenty of maxtor drives scattered about my machines and never once has one of them crapped out. Same with my WDs. And they didn't even have those nice 1-year warranties. They were all OEM. In fact, the only dead hard drive I have is this one. (You'll notice there's a fairly good...

2x Viewsonic P95f+b 19" Flat CRTs, 1x 120" display created by BenQ PB8220....ftw!

Too bad their selection of machines sucks... Whenever I see a machine I want at one of these places, it's gone before I save up the cash... (But I've still got a handful of pachinko balls in my pocket!) Frankly, I don't like movie-themed machines. Generic machines ftw! (Although old...

It's also worth noting that they'd probably take issue with your modifying the system. Businesses actually care about warranties, and once you open the case...there it goes. Don't game at work. I atleast can get away with it, being my own boss. <_<

I have a nice big pair of Sony studio monitor headphones for my serious listening...but I wouldn't mind a pair of these (With mic) for teamspeak and VoIP stuff. (Assuming they ever get the *&#@$# in-game VoIP working right in Battlefield 2)

Incase some of you didn't hear, DreamHost just started a deal where you get more hard drive space and bandwidth every week for as long as you're with them, and it's retroactive. For me, on the Level 3 plan, it's 60mb and 2gb a week. And I've been with them for like 6 months, so suddenly my...

Pfft. Just 2gb/hour for your TV-viewing pleasure? ;P 4.5gb/hour for me, but that's because I get all my favorite shows at 1920x1080 :3 Now THOSE suckers add up. Glad to see people pointing out the obvious though: Porn and newsgroups. God, I've got a friend who has like a terabyte of...

A little effort to hide it is all we ask, damn! :(

About PS/2 power, yeah they're powered. I used to have some Xircom parallel port ethernet adapters (Still do somewhere) and they came with little power adapters that plugged into the PS/2 and provided pass-through.

A few people have asked how good/reputable DreamHost is, my site is hosted with them, and I've never had any trouble. I love it. Best host I've ever used, and I get a hell of a lot of space and everything :)

Yep. I didn't get my headset either. I'm pissed. That was the only reason I ordered from CompUSA, they were the only place that still said anything about a headset. At the very least, I'm getting that $37.99 from Fry's pricematched. That way, I can fscking BUY one...but you can bet your ass...

I would get one, except I'm afraid that even nerds would beat me up and take my lunch money. ;P Actually, I think it'd be a clever little thing to stick to the back of my one of my workstation monitors to warn off all who approach with my usual bitterness and scorn. :P "Rendering...
