    [DEAD] Vizio VSB200 High Definition Sound Bar Refurbished: $59.41 AC shipped

    The remote that came with mine is very difficult to make work -- have to press the flat contacts with fingernails to get it to respond, and haven't found a reliable way to point it that will work. Replaced the battery to make sure it wasn't that, and still had problems with it. Just sprung...

    Can I connect a gigabit switch to my router and still use the internet?

    Thanks for these answers -- I was just hopping onto this forum to ask this same question! Except I made one 50' ethernet pull through my walls from my router to my home office area and would like to locate a switch in the office for multiple devices to connect through the router. Sounds like...

    Philips Home/Office 12 Outlet Surge Protector -$350,000 Equipment Warranty

    I'm afraid I don't recall the brand. And the total amount wasn't huge as I only replaced the damaged components -- motherboard, sound card, and a couple other smaller items. Might have only been $400 total? Worked for me.

    Philips Home/Office 12 Outlet Surge Protector -$350,000 Equipment Warranty

    Our house got hit by lightning about 5 yrs ago and I had my computer connected to a 10y/o surge protector. Fried a number of components. I called on the warranty, and they had me send the unit in for testing with a diagram of how and what was connected to the thing at the time of damage...
