    Microsoft Bluetooth Dongle

    Hi There, I bough a Bluetooth intellimouse Explorer which came with a dongle. The mouse works perfectly, however, it can also connect to other bluetooth devices besides the mouse. However I'm having a little trouble with that. I'm trying to connect my Samsung SGH-D500 so that I can send some...

    New Graphics Card :: £100 // $180 to spend

    Ok so I'm looking at an nVidia 6x00 or an ati x800? I can go alittle more on price most likely. Also, about the RAM, does a higher spec 128mb perform better than a lower spec 256mb? I'm still a bit confused about the memory.
