    Polk R50 Cherry @ Outpost for $59.99/ea

    I *believe* they only have them in cherry. My TV is black and I have some other small black items, but I have woodgrain furniture so the cherry finish sort of matches. The Csi3 speaker is also great. You can get the black ones cheap on e-bay, the cherry finish ones seem to not be as easy to...

    Polk R50 Cherry @ Outpost for $59.99/ea

    The cherry finish looks just like the below image (but with a black grille cloth cover on the front, bass port is exposed which shows cherry on black). I now have 4 R50's as my front and rear speakers, with a matching Polk CSi3 center channel. The sound is *amazing* for the money. Polk R50...

    bizarre networking issue... *SOLVED!*

    Okay, update.. FIXED! Having 802.1p enabled on the gigabit nic was basically causing all sorts of strange havoc, and explains why we were seeing the weird layer2/layer3 issues. 802.1p occurs at the hardware address level. FWIW I did have VLAN'ing disabled on the NIC. I need to do some...

    bizarre networking issue... *SOLVED!*

    Well I'm really sorta stumped on this one. The only thing I can think of is there is some sort of extreme incompatibility with this nforce gigabit network adapter. I've tried a couple different systems now, all of them can see my *nix box just fine. However this XP box (nForce chipset)...

    Voip setup

    Asterisk is your cheapest most flexible solution here, yes. You'll need minimal hardware to support 6 analog lines. To really answer your question in full however, you should provide some more details as to your requirements. Are you replacing the existing analog phones with voip phones...
