    COOLPIX 5000 5.0 MegaPixel Digital Camera - $689

    I can't believe the people who think 3 Mpixel is enough because most people can't tell the difference between normal prints and prints taken from a digital camera. To get "National Geographic" quality, which would keep me happy, you need about 250 dpi, and with a size of 10x8 we need 5 Mpixels...

    Radeon 7500 blues

    No its the big one with S-video, DVi and vga outputs. The specs are 230/180. It will overclock to 280/240. But my main concern is why my fill rate with this card with 3dmark2001 is just 600 Mtexel/sec (multi-texture) when everyone else reports double that! That could only happen if the core...

    Radeon 7500 blues

    Using a Duron 933 (133 MHz bus) with a radeon 7500 I get a fill rate of just 250 Mpixel/s and 600 MTexel/s while other people report twice as much. Is my 7500 crippled in some way being OEM? Powerstrip reports core/mem as 200/180 (DDR) and I can over-clock to 230/230 (which is retail speed) but...
