    RCA HDTV tuner-only $110 at buy.com

    Videopho, I'm not really familiar with the dell 2005fpw, but from what I've read, it seems like it is a high-end *COMPUTER* LCD monitor that is optimized for use with computer TV graphics cards.

    Virgin Mobile Refill Card @ Target Again

    Dumb n00b question: I just bought the VM K9 phone from BB for $39 last week. If I buy the two $30 cards, can I activate one now and then wait just before the 90 days expire on it and then activate the 2nd card for the following 90 days? I also heard that the "spend $60 before May to keep...

    Compaq Athlon laptop $699.99 AR Circuit City or Best Buy

    I finally got a PCMCIA Firewire card to work. Of course, as suspected, it had to be a Compaq branded card to get my WD 120GB external hard drive recognized Specifically, it was a Compaq 2-port PCMCIA Cardbus, Model CPQFWCB which was $49.99 at Microcenter - not on sale. I had tried a SIIG 2-port...

    Thanks mrbass for all the news. Also, I really like the Linux tips and Windows freeware recommendations on your website. I've been using Linux for awhile, but found that you had some tips that I had never heard before and they were all in a nice, concise style on the webpage! Good job. :)

    Paid $129 for a 9600SE got a 9600PRO at BB

    Opened up the package - the 180339XXXXXXX serial number worked for me = 9600 PRO with a fan on the card. Radeon 9600 Pro 128M, but as another poster said, no cables at all for the DVI or S-Video.
