    Bang For The Buck Video Card ...Not gaming

    The only places I could find the VisionTek was Comp-U-Plus and CompuVest, both of which had poor scores at resellerratings, TigerDirect had the OEM version for $59.99 with a rebate which you'll never see on an OEM card, and Amazon who had it for $89.00 Monarch Computers has the Power Color 64MB...

    Bang For The Buck Video Card ...Not gaming

    I couldn't find the 64 MB Visiontek on CompUSA's site so which one would you suggest? Also, is the 9000 PRO better than the 9100?

    Stability - ASUS P4b266 or Intel 845BG

    I've decided to go with the Intel board. Post sales support is mandatory for this install. If this was for myself, I would surely go with the ASUS. Thanks for all of the input, it's greatly appreciated. Mark

    Stability - ASUS P4b266 or Intel 845BG

    I'm building a new system for a business where stability is a must. It will be running a P4 1.6A, 256 MB Crucial DDR and Win 98. I'm tossed between these two boards and would appreciate some advice. Thanks Mark

    **Update** $132 P4-1.6a (shipped) @ Newegg and Mainboard comparision to go with.

    I called this afternoon to ask about the status of my order. I was told I was approx. #200 on the backorder list. The CSR said they were getting in another 600-700 boards and that I should have no problems getting one. As he scrolled down the list he mentioned seeing orders for 10, 33 and...

    **Update** $132 P4-1.6a (shipped) @ Newegg and Mainboard comparision to go with.

    How does this version compare to the Model#: P4B266-C with no Lan or Audio at Newegg for $117.00 Neweggs website lists it as an OEM version. Does this affect the warranty? MWave sells the board with Audio and USB 2.0 for $157.00 and even CDW lists a second version of this board part # 355877...

    On FIRE Fuji digital camera FinPix 2600Zoom for $183.73 shipped!

    The Fuji rebate states that it needs to be an original. The one sent by 800.com is definately a copied version. Will this work? If not, where do we go to get an original? I never got an answer as to whether a Memorex smart media card was up to par with the Sandisk. I see that 800.com now...

    Maxtor 20GB/7.2k HD $30 after coupon and MIR (+tax) at officedepot.com - updated

    On the rebate form, it states: "claims from dealers/distributors, their employees, groups, clubs or organizations will not be honored" Does this mean if I buy the product through business, I'm not eligible for a rebate? Are their work arounds? Thanks

    On FIRE Fuji digital camera FinPix 2600Zoom for $183.73 shipped!

    I got in on this deal but when I went to place my order, they were out of the 64 MB Sandisk smart media cards so I ordered the 64 MB Memorex. Had anyone used these in the past and if so, what was your experience? Thanks:confused:

    HOT: Samsung Syncmaster 900NF 19" for $399.95 shipped minus $30 MIR = $369.95

    Just received mine yesterday and I'm not happy with it. The top 1-3 inches exhibits excessive horizontal bow (downward in the middle) which I've seen on other monitors but never to this extent. I also see some curvature in the middle of the screen. I had a friend who just purchased the...

    Netgear 314 router

    There was a $20.00 MIR when I purchased this at the end of Nov. I was in a BB today and saw this router on the shelf. It had a MIR of $20 which was good until 1/13/01 I believe. BB prints the MIR with the cash register receipt so I was out of luck as far as getting a copy for myself.
