    Best digi camera for 200-300 (or so)?

    I'm going to be different and recommend the Minolta s414. It has 4 megapixels and a 4x optical zoom. If you're like me and are fairly lazy you can use it in the auto focus mode. Or if you are more of the do it your selfer then there are manual features available. The s414 is not however the...

    Almost too embarrased to ask Antec sx830

    Hello all. I just received my new Antec sx830 case and most of the hardware has been transferred. One question however. How do I attach the swinging door to the hindged section of the case? I could just be incorrectly assuming that it should attach. With my case whenever you open the door it...

    ATI Radeon 64 MB DDR VIVO Retail $155 US after $30 (ATI Trade-up Program)

    Hi Csaddict. Regarding any confirmation. I did receive something but only after I had already received the card. I got the card at around 2:00pm and the email was after 4:00pm. So I guess they send confirmation the day after. The email said the card was sent yesterday.

    ATI Radeon 64 MB DDR VIVO Retail $155 US after $30 (ATI Trade-up Program)

    I posted this earlier but had my thread locked down. Some of you were wondering how long it's taking to get the cards. I ordered mine on Friday and received it today. Now I may have a small advantage because I live in Toronto and Ati is in the same city. Just thought I would share that it may...

    ATI Interview: You ask the questions

    :| This has nothing to do with the newest drivers or the next variation of this card or any of that stuff. This is asked from the perspective of a frustrated Canadian. Why does the card cost more to buy in Canada than it does to buy it from the US? That's including the exhange (about $1.50)...

    Motherboard?

    I posted this under video cards and didn't receive a response so I'll be brief. My Creative Anihiliator video card fritzed out. There is a black burn spot on a small section where the board enters the AGP slot. There is also a visible residue in the AGP slot itself. Question? Could the...
