    Upgrade time. Time to go SFF or stay ATX for gaming rig?

    Well, I consider Shuttle XPCs to be SFF. I understand you're talking more along the lines of Mini-ITX style SFF. And that's definitely not what I mean, nice as they may be. It would be the Shuttle SN25P if I get one.

    Upgrade time. Time to go SFF or stay ATX for gaming rig?

    Well I'm at loss on this one. I have one Shuttle XPC that I use as a media center and I love the thing - quiet, small, works like a charm. But I'm a little wary of going the SFF route for a gaming system. So basically I'm deciding between a Lian-Li /DFI nF4 Ultra combo or an SN25P...

    9800 Pro dying... I think. Temporary replacement ideas?

    Seems my 9800 Pro has decided it's time to slowly drift off into the here-after. I'm starting to get artifacts and distortions all over the screen and my system won't even reboot unless I hold F8 and use a previous configuration (graphics are still corrupted even then). Problem is I wasn't...

    cannot connect to 1 website

    It's not one website. Try to connect to www.penny-arcade.com and some other sites and you'll have the same problem. It has to do with a dispute between Level 3 and Cogent, which for many internet users has pretty much split off a section of the Internet and made it inaccessable. You can...

    Where can I buy a Zippy EL-720 keyboard?

    That sounds perfect! I liked that keyboard since I first saw it, but was turned off by edge lighting. I want something that highlights letters. And with as much typing as I do, and the way the letters always wear off my keyboards, etching would be ideal.

    Where can I buy a Zippy EL-720 keyboard?

    The room this system is in has very poor lighting. Glowing keys would be a godsend.

    Where can I buy a Zippy EL-720 keyboard?

    Thanks for all the help. There are certain features unique to the EL-720 that were the reasons for my choosing it. Among them were: * Real aluminum upper casing. * White, as opposed to clear keys. (I think the white gives the letters more definition as opposed to seeing all the...

    Where can I buy a Zippy EL-720 keyboard?

    That's in New Zealand. I'll pay an arm and a leg in shipping. Something a little closer to home would be nice. :D

    Where can I buy a Zippy EL-720 keyboard?

    Text I'm interested in buying one of these keyboards, and they appear on the Zippy website, but I can't find a place that sells them. Does anyone know where I can get one? Edit: Oh, and I'm in the US. :D

    Mac Mini $494

    I think a lot of you are really being overcritical and have your expectations too high. I'm a PC user - never owned a Mac - but for a secondary system to be hooked up to a flat panel TV or the like for email, web browsing, movies, MP3s, etc this is a great little clutter-free device. Instead...

    Saitek PC Gamer's Keyboard

    Are only the areas around the keys back-lit, or are the button letters also back-lit?

    I'm clearly not seeing the same Deal of the Day you are. All I'm seeing is a Mad Dog drive.
