    Dell 2405 FPW.........Component input problem.

    I have heard that this may be caused by Macrovision copy protection, the same thing that will keep you from making a VCR copy of a DVD.... Macrovision will scramble the image, or will not record at all, if you try to record a DVD to tape. Supposedly, the DVD requests that Macrovision be turned...

    Dell 2405FPW 24" inch on the way----Now available in US! Who is going to buy this new monster?

    Still 'In Production', on the 3rd... Sheesh! My delivery date says the 7th. Strange that they grossly over estimated for you guys, and then delivered early... Maybe I need to cancel, buy it again, for cheaper, including overnight shipping, and get it here by monday... J

    *DEAD FOR NOW*WARMER Dell 2405 24 inch widescreen LCD 1004.10 free shipping with $75 off coupon

    Well, dell will give me the discounted price if they do decide to allow coupons, etc for this monitor. If they dont, I ship it back, once I get the 'new' one, at the discounted price... At the most it will cost me shipping of 16.00... but to save $339.00, i can do that. Now, what do do with...

    OT- Mozilla Firefox 0.9.2

    For the IE users that have tried Mozilla - I am curious to know what sites are not rendering correctly in the Mozilla browser. I love Firefox (mozilla) and I also have some sites that do not render correctly, but I blame it on bad HTML, not a bad browser. So, I wanted to get a list of sites...
