    Does anybody want to go to a concert in London?

    Hello all; A pianist I really love, Valentina Lisitsa, is performing a solo concert at the Royal Albert Hall on 19 June. I live in the US and bought tickets hoping I'd be able to fly standby to see it. As flights are getting tight, I've decided not to go. If anybody wants to go, I'll gladly...

    I know the 911 uses McPherson struts in the front, but what does the Cayman use, front and back?

    The future of consoles

    As news of the new consoles (PS3, 360, Wii) started trickling in, I found myself thinking about the future. I thought PS3 and 360 would be locked in a battle for market supremacy, and I thought that Wii would carve a small, little niche where it would excel. The competition part was right -...

    YABT: Classmate in High School got a Honda CBR600RR crotch rocket.

    06 Kawi ZX-6R for me... I've dropped my bike twice, but since it's my only means of transportation it's kinda inevitable. I hate people who don't know how to ride. 'nuff said

    Explination for FSB holes...

    http://www.thetechrepository.com/showthread.php?p=32#post32 I was reading about the FSB holes on an Asus P5B and stumbled upon this. It goes a long way into explaining the intricacies (sp?) of the P965 northbridge. I understood most of it, but some of it flew over my head and I took his word...

    Installing a Quadro 280NVS on Fiesty

    Figured it out...actually, the Quadro 280 NVS is covered with the new drivers. I had the PCI address of my video card set wrong (it was at default) but after that it's working great. The system (P3 Coppermine 1GHz, 512MB SDRAM) can't really handle Desktop Effects or Beryl, unless anybody knows...

    Installing a Quadro 280NVS on Fiesty

    So yeah, I heard that Fiesty came out yesterday and I had an extra PC sitting around doing nothing, so I figured I'd install it and give it a try. Everything went smoothly, but now I'm trying to install/enable my old nVidia Quadro 280NVS. All the forums I've searched talk about different...

    Coding for IE7

    Hey, Does anybody know how I can make a file that I can click on so it'll open up webpages in multiple tabs? Basically, my main page is Intel.com. I want a file on my desktop or quicklaunch that'll open up all my hardware review sites in different tabs in IE7 (Anandtech being the first on...

    HDTV suggestions

    Eh, I was wishing to stay away from projection, but for the price I guess it's really one of the main options. I've had 2 projections (not DLP, though) and I really dislike the viewing angle and how dim the displays are. If anybody knows of some really nice DLPs that are bright enough, I'd be...

    HDTV suggestions

    Hey all, I'm looking to get a nice HDTV for my apartment...I was thinking somewhere around 36" or so. I don't need it to be LCD or plasma, just something with good quality and that can accept HDTV signals. 1080i and 720p, preferrably. Anybody know of any good ones below $1200? Below $800...
