Read an interesting article, http://time.com/3111377/ferguson-police-cameras/. At first glance, seems like a good idea. The tech exists, and if departments can afford bearcats, they can certainly afford cameras. What do you guys think?
I recently had an electrician put in 8 recessed lights and dimmer switch in my living room. They used Phillips BR30 (13W) indoor soft white flood LED dimmable bulbs, controlled by one Lutron Skylark 150 Watt CFL/LED Dimmer. They make a noticeable buzzing noise, sounds the same no matter what...
I've seen recommendations here that for large screens, plasma is the way to go. But, then on avsforum I read about people having issues with image retention. If my wife pauses the Tivo and then forgets about it, will that ruin the tv? That scenario really has me considering a Sony XBR55HX929...
I see this motherboard has one 4 pin cpu fan header and four 3 pin fan headers. Anyone know if the 3 pin fans are controllable based on temperature as well?
I'm looking to get a quiet new vid card around $200. My needs are modest due to my monitor's resolution only being 1440x900. I'm thinking I won't need any more horsepower than a Radeon 6850 provides. With that in mind, is the XFX Dual Fan 6850 my best option? The same cooling on a 6870 got great...
Bet a lot of people waiting on SB mobos will be happy to see an official release date - I am. :)

I'm planning a new system around a Sandy Bridge 2500k and am deciding what kind of ram to get. I think I've settled on an 8gb (2x4) pair of G.Skill Ripjaw X 1.5v DDR3 1600 ram. There's two models to pick from, one with CAS latency of 8, and the other 9. How much faster would the lower latency...
I'm a member of the Club for Growth and got an interesting email (pasted below). There's a special election happening in a couple weeks in NY for congressman. As a (mostly) libertarian, I'm hoping the fiscally conservative Doug Hoffman wins. Maybe this will be a little preview for the 2010...
I saw in another thread that most people in this forum identify themselves as fiscal conservative / social liberal. What do you guys think of Peter Schiff? He had a great appearance on the Daily Show and may (has to win primary first) run against Dodd for senator in CT.
Daily Show with Jon...
A couple data analyst (SQL experience needed mostly) positions are available at the company I work for near Sacramento CA. Is there an appropriate forum to post them?
I'm looking to finally replace my CRT monitor with a 19" LCD. Needs to have a black trim, maybe some silver in there, and I do play FPS games. My vid card has both analog and DVI outputs, would prefer to get a monitor with DVI in.
I decide to hook up my computer to my 32" Samsung HDTV. I set my resolution to 800x600, and have an S video cable going from my ati 9600 to the tv. It's nice, but I thought it would be better. I started playing WoW, but quickly stopped after realizing I couldn't read the chat text even if I was...
Got a couple Best Buy gift certificates for Christmas, and would like to buy a 32" HDTV. Looking at the models in store, I think I like the Samsung TX-P3271H the best. Anybody have one already? Should I look at other models instead ? I'm looking to keep the price under $1000.
I can't seem to use Anandtech's demos. Here's what I typed and the error I get.

Does this mean Anandtech's demos...
This thread on Sudhian asks how much extra you would pay for the next xpc to have Soundstorm. Please vote in the poll, Shuttle marketing will consider the results if there's enough responses. So far, there's about 120.
Apologies if this has already been posted....
Title says it all, I upgraded my account to premiere to accept a CC payment, and am now being charged for every transaction I receive. How do I go back to having a personal account ?
