    Why do people become morons when they enter an airport?

    Whenever I fly to Poland on Lot to visit the motherland people always clap when we land. My mom explained to me the reason why people clap is because during the days of Communism Lot used to use crappy Russian planes that were notorious for mechanical problems and crashing. People would clap...

    How to write data to DVD+RW

    I went out to Fry's today and bought myself a stack of DVD+RW disks thinking that I can use them to move files from my old pc to my new laptop. However, I really can't seem to figure out how to use it. Do I need to buy software to write files to the DVDs? I've already formatted the disks using...

    Dell Inspiron 1520 vs. Asus G1S-A1

    I couldn't find out a whole lot about the warranty on the Asus. If you were to have a problem with the G1S you would have to mail it in. Dell's complete care has at home service, which was the deal breaker for me, especially because I'm going to be at college and will need my laptop for class.

    Dell Inspiron 1520 vs. Asus G1S-A1

    It came down to these two laptops for me about a month ago and I decided to go with the Dell. However, my Dell has the T7500 and a 7200rpm 160GB hard drive. Be prepared to wait several weeks before you receive your Dell, though. I had to wait five weeks before they shipped mine. I'm pretty sure...

    Build time on Dell laptops is horrible

    I got really lucky. I called Dell on Monday to complain and the CSR told me that my laptop was delayed because of the huge volume of orders that they had received, and that it would be shipped before the 28th. Last night I got an email saying that it was finally shipped :)

    Build time on Dell laptops is horrible

    Indeed Looks like I'm not the only having troubles with Dell. Pretty much everyone that ordered the Inspiron 1520 after early July isn't getting it for another month. There's even a competition to see who has to wait the longest :confused...

    Build time on Dell laptops is horrible

    Ordered an Inspiron 1520 on July 8. I got an email saying that it was expected to ship on August 8. I just got a phonecall today from Dell saying that my laptop isn't going to be shipped earlier than August 28, which just so happens to be the day I'm leaving for college.... wtf?! /rant

    notebook screen resolution

    I'm thinking about buying the Dell Inspiron 1520, but I'm having trouble deciding whether I should choose a display with a resolution of 1440x900 or 1680x1050. I'm going to be using my notebook for a lot of word processing and web browsing, so I'm worried that a resolution of 1680x1050 will...

    IT, CE, & CS

    I'm pretty much leaning towards IT instead of CE because I'm not a huge fan of physics. Math is ok, and I really don't mind calc, so I'm thinking of having CE as a minor instead. I'm not too sure about CS because I don't know if I'll like programming, but I'm going to try to teach myself over...

    IT, CE, & CS

    Wouldn't it be better to major in IT and minor in CE/CS? I thought that double majoring would require having to go into a fifth year in college (unless I were to spend all my time studying).
