    Widespread Lenovo Y560 Display Problem?

    After doing some research, it appears I am not the only one with Y560 problems such as pixel shimmering/dithering in discrete graphics mode. After telling lenovo I was having this problem they immediately set up a return and full refund without even the option of sending me a new one. This has...

    Vista Printer Sharing Nightmare

    Thanks for the reply. I tried what you said, and still no go. It gives me the previous errors I mentioned. The only thing I can think of trying is to take the new laptop to a friends place and try to join his Vista workgroup. If that works I will have at least narrowed it down to which PC is...

    Vista Printer Sharing Nightmare

    OK, so I have a bit of a problem here. I have a PC that is connected to two USB printers and runs Vista Business. It prints to both printers and runs great. It shares printers fine with my wireless XP Pro netbook, and my wifes old wireless XP Pro laptop. I just bought her a new laptop...

    ASUS Eee PC 1000 40G 10-inch Atom 40GB SSD Netbook $399.99

    Also, please be aware that this has a fast 8gb SSD drive, and a rather slow 32GB mini pci card for data, non-speed essential programs. Just a little FYI. I have the 80GB hdd version and love the little buger.

    free 9600GT or 9500GT if you have a 7600 or 6800 AGP BFG card..

    Anyone wonder if this is just a good way for them to get rid of their buggy/faulty stock that they and other manufacturers got? I'm not up on all of the details, but it makes me wonder.

    $25 off $75 Instant on Kellogg's, Gillette, Olay, Loma Linda, and More

    For those of us who moronically tried (and ended up loving) the Gillette Fusion, the POWER ones are ~$15 for 8 and the MANUAL are about ~$25 for 8. That's a significant savings for what is essentially the same thing, as they are interchangeable. Great Deal OP!

    Half life for 98 cents on Steam

    Runs great on most netbooks in 800X600! For those with higher end systems, you can still download a higher geometry character model pack, made by valve for Dreamcast/BlueShift/PS2. I had it on my netbook, but it was too slow, so I went back to regular models. Lost the link to them, anyone...

    Dell Inspiron Mini 9 is up.....

    Actually that 6-cell costs about $119 from what I've heard. OF course by then you'd have two battery packs so that's true. It only has a 8.9 screen (glossy I think) and none of the neat buttons in the front. Like the speed (800mhz to 1.9 I think), resolution changer, and one customizable. I...

    Dell Inspiron Mini 9 is up.....

    Although it costs a little more (not much after MS Cash Back) I like the EEE 1000H. It can handle up to 2gb RAM (Dell supports 1), 10 inch non-glossy (reflect the world) screen, standard bluetooth(optional on dell), standard 1.3 cam(.3 standard on dell), 6-cell battery vs. 4 and although it's...

    Nintendo DS R4 Multimedia Card $34.90 Shipped!

    It was going for about $45 recently. You'll need a microSD card for it though, which can be had for cheap in various places. R4 Multimedia Card Too old to be bumped for a question that has nothing to do with the deal anyway. Moderator allisolm

    Sick of Creative? M-Audio Revolution 7.1 Surround Sound PCI Card

    Looks good, but I think it might be lacking in the Vista support department. But, many of us would say "Who cares?"
