    Getting back into gaming... what to play?

    Yep, when I think back to the last time I really played a lot of (or really any) PC games, I remember that Unreal Tournament 3 was new and cool and exciting. I don't know if I have any FPS preference or not, but I do remember that it was fun! So far, the most popular response has been Orange...

    Getting back into gaming... what to play?

    Think back 8 years ago when UT:3 was the latest and greatest... That's really the last time I considered myself to be a gamer. Since then, I might as well have been living under a rock. What are your top 3 recommended games for me to pick up and get back into gaming?

    My ideal new phone

    I'm looking for a new phone, but the last two or three phones I've had always get little bits of dust and such covering the lens... I'd like pictures to reliably be free of unnecessary defects (some defects are expected, given it's a phone, not a camera) Any ideas for a camera phone that...

    KDS 22" widescreen LCD monitor $229 AR @Compusa

    Isn't that against the law? but even if they pull a stunt like "lost record of purchase" or something like that... it's not like they're very hard to track down- just go to the store w/ your receipt and yell 'til you get your money.

    KDS 22" widescreen LCD monitor $229 AR @Compusa

    I'll let you know once I receive mine, but from what I hear, the monitor is beautiful. So far, the biggest downside is a flimsy stand- they say not to adjust it very often. On the other hand, it IS wall mountable so if it's a problem you could potentially get a stand yourself. I have heard...

    Question about creating a Web Site

    Who's writing the descriptions? A skeleton web page, just a few graphics, "blah" written everywhere would only take a couple of hours, tops. Now, if the person making the site is supposed to write the descriptions in, find/modify/create graphics, test the code v. multiple browsers and...

    SQL select troubles... bad db design?

    The more I think about it, the more I think my design is bad and that I should re-work the db... but I'd rather not if I can avoid it. My database is storing a list of classes, like what a university would have. CRN, title, days of the week, etc. I am implementing the db through a Java...

    When are restaurants the most/least busy?

    I never picked up the answer to this question in common-knowledge school: When are restaurants the least busy? I understand that Friday and Saturday nights are the busiest times of the week... but what are the least busy nights? What time is the "dinner rush"? or the "lunch rush"? And...

    Which mac to get? Needed for work

    hm, so the bottom-of-the-line macbook on apple.com says "AirPort Extreme Card & Bluetooth" under specifications. Is this: 1) Integrated? 2) Capable of WPA2? 3) 802.11a?

    Which mac to get? Needed for work

    okay, then no PCMCIA :-) So, that's fine the 802.11g is standard, but do they all support WPA2? and, do any support 802.11a? Really any amount of RAM is allright as long as the system will run- we will not be installing alot of applications on here

    Which mac to get? Needed for work

    okay, I can be a little more specific: -We decided(just now) that we'd prefer a notebook. -Processor: Intel -The system must be brand new (aka, purchased from apple.com) -must have at least 1 PCMCIA slot -must have embedded wireless (802.11g, WPA2 and/or 802.11a) -Must be as cheap as...

    Which mac to get? Needed for work

    Hey, I don't know anything about macs, but I need to choose one to purchase for work. The only requirement: that it has the latest and greatest wireless embedded in the system. That means 802.11g with WPA2 capabilities. 802.11a would be nice too. Otherwise, cheaper is better (and new is...

    Stop shrinking images in firefox

    The Problem (briefly): I want Firefox to stop shrinking images to fit the window and/or frame. Instead, I want scroll bars. My Thoughts: There has got to be a config somewhere to disable this. However, this is an undesirable solution to my problem... The Problem (specifically): Actually, I...
