    Is it still crazy to scan 1000 magazines?

    I rarely make it back to AnandTech, but when I do I always check to see if Aquaman ever updated this thread. Still rooting for you!

    $600ish for 1070 in Canada

    There are some decent deals to be had considering the current prices. I nabbed a Zotac 1070 Amp! from staples for 534.99 after price matching mikescomputershop and using a 25 dollar off purchase of 250 or more coupon. Free shipping, got it in 3 business days. Love the card so far, no coil whine...

    Switching license keys between computers.

    Awesome, thanks for the suggestion guys, I think I will give teamviewer a try before I drop the 100 bucks. I use remote desktop a lot between my computers, so it has been driving me nuts that I dont have it on my laptop. Funnily enough, it took me quite some time to figure out why I couldnt...

    Switching license keys between computers.

    Oem. That is unfortunate news, thanks for the answer. I should be able to buy the upgrade then at least correct?

    Switching license keys between computers.

    Ok guys, I need some help. I tried calling Microsoft, and she said I can reformat and do what I am asking, but she did not sound sure at all, and I am not convinced before I undertake this task. I own three computers, all are on windows 10, two are pro, and one is home. Essentially, I want to...

    Oki Mc160n laser printer, pink hue issue in backround

    I meant to update this some time ago, the colouring issue fixed itself after a few prints. By a few, I mean quite a few, probably 30-40 or so. Maybe I fudged the toner fill a bit or something who knows.

    Oki Mc160n laser printer, pink hue issue in backround

    Hey guys I refilled my toners today, and now have a strange issue. I dont recall it happening prior to me refilling the toner. This is the first time I have refilled this set of toner cartridges. All the colors work good, print good etc, however the backround has a pinkish/magenta hue to it. If...

    Networking two houses together through fibre optic cable possible?

    Thankyou for the detailed reply. It sounds like fibre, as I imagined is the better more reliable solution that comes with an equivalent price tag. I think I will try this wireless solution out, and if it doesnt meet my needs I am out less than 200 bucks and will do it the proper way. My dad does...

    Networking two houses together through fibre optic cable possible?

    Absolutely, I am way too excited about this. I had done some searching a few months ago about wireless solutions, but I must suck, as I could only find what looked like ancient setups with less than 10mbps connection. Thanks guys, I think I am all set. I may just order these now so I can play...

    Networking two houses together through fibre optic cable possible?

    That ubiquiti unit sounds fantastic! It's also 5ghz which I like. I can get a pretty damn good line of sight I think, should make this a breeze. Man am I excited. I almost want to buy these now and try and play with them. I am about 5km line of sight from my parents now, I could rig one of these...

    Networking two houses together through fibre optic cable possible?

    I am thinking I can finagle a line of sight with some crafty cat6 burying within its limitations at the place I will be building. Looking at azazel1024's suggestion, I saw this in the related catergory...

    Networking two houses together through fibre optic cable possible?

    Thanks for the great post! This gives me lots to look into now. I debated the wireless bridge idea, but it is not line of sight, there are trees between the houses. I also hate wireless and find it finicky at the best of times. However, I will not rule it out as a solution. 10mbps would work ok...

    Networking two houses together through fibre optic cable possible?

    Hey guys, I have a question for yas. I imagine this may turn out to be too complex a setup, but my wife and I are going to be building a house about 900-1000ft away from my parents house on their property. In the rural area we live we only have one realistic internet solution that required me to...
