spend a little more and get one of these instead: http://www.bmwusa.com/standard/content/vehicles/2013/x1/default.aspx 24 MPG city, 34 hwy and 0-60 in 6 seconds :)

I live in Arizona, and I just invested in a solar electric system for my house so I'll share my perspective. My system is grid-tied (most utilities allow this in my state), so no batteries are required and the utility gives a 1:1 credit for excess power I send backward through the meter...

They're called haboobs. That's right: Haboobs.

Skip all of that, and get some good, strong (60 proof or better) limoncello. There is no better sipping drink!

I think the same guy did the hilarious "Regulate" synopsis. I wonder what other rap tracks got this treatment? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulate_(song)

In popular "vacation communities" where people leave their homes seasonally, criminals use this tactic to see if anyone is home at the property (burglary prep). They'll flip the switch, come back in a couple days or whatever, and if the power hadnt been turned on, it means the property is...

You guys have no sense of humor. This is the funniest thing I've ever seen in my life by at least +58%. I even bothered to log in and reply to this post. Look at my # of posts and reg date, do you think I do this lightly?

An artist should still be able to get paid without having to do live performances (although maybe a lesser amount) if their work is popular for private use. Some musical genres dont lend themselves well to live performance (electronic music, etc), many of my favorite artists have never toured...

The "infinite supply" part is the fallacy. It implies that the content has no value. While it may be free and limitless to copy digital content, it is not free and limitless to create. If the artists stop creating the work, the supply becomes 0. To make a million additional copies of an mp3...

I bought a Samsung 40" LCD with almost identical specs but NO HDTV tuner back around xmas for $1400. This deal looks frustratingly hot to me. It makes an excellent PC monitor and gets my thumbs up :)

I just upgraded to a Samsung 40" (4065F) 1080p LCD TV, for use as my primary computer monitor. Looks just as clean and awesome as my old Dell 2405 24" monitor, only bigger. It actually seems to have *less* ghosting, which was a surprise to me. I did initially have to go into Nvidia's...

I just got my 2nd bad Buffalo router in a row. (first one had a bad power supply, the second one wouldnt do DHCP) I'm gonna go back to my trusty Linksys :P

Just got my Leadtek 7800gt yesterday. Artifacts like crazy with out of the box settings. As far as I know, there is no updated BIOS from Leadtek to fix this (yet). I'm annoyed, and I'm probably gonna have to RMA the card :|

While the price is nice on the Z-340's, and the looks are okay, the sound quality was not acceptable to my ears. Look at Monsoons if you are all about clarity and soundstage. The MM702's might be affordable enough for you (they were $149 when I bought them a while ago at full retail price from...
