    4-letter search minimum useless for a tech forum

    Sphinx search: http://www.sphinxsearch.com/ I run it on an IPB forum, and it's even integrated into 3.0x. I know there are mods for vB that make it an easy install. 2 letter searches, lightning fast, minimal server load.

    ThinkPad z61t for $539.10

    Ordered without any issue no phone calls from them. In fact, after emailing to inquire why I was being charged sales tax in my state they waived that as well.

    'Above the fold' hot deals?

    I surf at 1280x1024, however for the last few months it's rare that I see more than a couple of user submitted hot deals without scrolling down. I know this has had a negative impact on my experience in this forum. The pinned topics have spun out of control. Sorry for posting this when it's not...

    Refurbished eVGA cards at (no longer) great prices. Check eVGA's site on: July 17th at 0700 Pacific, 1000 Eastern

    Seems you're lucky if you got one. I got the same dear John letter... Here's $50 worthless bucks. To make matters worse, I logged into my account to see if I could find any deals, and the $50 EVGA bucks weren't even there. P.S. 7600GTX, non KO

    Did they have 10 or 10,000? No need to give away your exact order number.

    Weird. Any one else get a call from eVGA wondering what part number you ordered from B-stock?
