    Confused about USB cable sizes (A/B/M/F/mini/extention etc)

    I got the PDF's, but the manul is extremely dummy'd down, and just says 'the square plug', which could be usb B mini or regular, and M or F. I could give them a call, but in my past experience the customer service people only read out of the manual and don't even know what USB is. I'll give it...

    make you computer into a hardware router?

    You can use software based NAT programs such as Sygate (www.sygate.com) to do exactly this. They used to have a shareware version good for 10 ip addresses. You don't need any additional nics. Just have all your computers plugged into a hub or switch, and have one of the PC's running Sygate...

    Athlon XP CPU Upgrade Questions

    I am currently running an Athlon XP 1800+ on a EP-8KHA+ (KT266a) with PC2100 memory. I am looking for a quick 'best bang for the buck' upgrade, and my MB can support the XP 2600+ Thoroughbred CPU. What I am wondering is, could I use the Barton version of the 2600+ instead on this setup, or...

    Dell LCD Monitor Deals @ Dell Home with 10% off and $40 off $350 coupon **07/10 only**

    The NEC 1760NX is the same 16ms panel as well. I got one during the 15+15+5 for like $366, very good monitor, tho it does have 1 stuck blue pixel in the top middle of the screen. Trying to decide if its worth going through dell to get it replaced.
