    Lexar 1GB USB Jumpdrive $49.98 w/free ship

    I have the one gig here in front of me right now. It's not THAT wide. 1 and 3/16ths inches at it's widest by about 2.5 inches long. I've never had a problem fitting it anywhere, and I've had it in a LOT of different PCs. Get a little dongle for it if it's a problem with your PC........the...

    VONAGE for 24.99 Unlimited Plan

    I use Packet 8, been happy with the service so far...........rates are cheaper. Anyhow, here is what I did to wire my house. 1. Make sure the phone line outside is unhooked from your main service box. They carry voltage and voltage will fry your VoIP box. 2. Plug the phone line from...

    Update: Price now $9.xx (still not bad)! 6 Pack of compact fluorescent bulbs at Home Depot B&M for $6.00 + tax

    I bought this brand when the 75 watt light output ones were on sale for 99 cents each. They light up quick, almost like an incandescent bulb. They start off dim, but not as dim as most CFL lights out there and come to peak brightness rather quickly. The color is warmer. Most CFL bulbs I've...

    Free SIRIUS receiver w/car dock with one year agreement *Howard Stern Rally Special*

    Good deal I suppose, but why does every Sirius receiver have to be so damned big and ugly? I'm contemplating dumping XM and taking up Sirius, but they don't make a single thing I'd want to stick in my car.

    Packet 8 subscribers

    This is HOT if you've been waiting for them forever, like I have. To make this a true HOT deal, they are waiving the activation fee before Dec 2004. There is a $4.95 monthly service charge. Broadvoice is a little cheaper, but they don't have numbers for my area(s) and they don't port...

    Networking question. Please help

    The way you want to network can be done, in fact it's done quite often, but I feel it's not the best setup for a novice, especially if you use a lot of programs that access the Internet such as AIM, netmeeting, peer to peer, etc........... The reason why is now your laptop is behing two NAT...

    Networking question. Please help

    I could offer step by step help, but my best advice would be to tell you to take one of the adpaters back and get a router with wireless..........for many reasons.

    Linking two LANs (SD to LV)

    sDSL lines can easliy reach 3 Mbps.......at a fraction of the cost of a full T. In major cities like SD and LV, hopefully he's at a location where he can get good speeds. Heck, a small office could even run over a 768kbps line.

    A true hardware firewall does more than NAT, correct?

    Good question. I'd say yes, by definition it creates a barrier between you and the Internet. Even a fancy Cisco is just a glorified NAT/PAT device......at least that's my opinion.

    Linking two LANs (SD to LV)

    VPN will do what you are needing, whether it's practical or not you need to decide. How important is the data? If it's extremely confidential, don't do VPN. How important is up time? A frame relay connection would tend to be more reliable than a VPN connection. How large are the files...

    I've got one (the only one I ever got) to share. If this thread wasn't so hard to track I'd give it to the first person who hasn't got one yet, but that's impossible so the first to reply asking for it from me along with their email gets it. Note......I'm not a thread sitter, it's late and I'm...

    hotmail to offer 250 mb!!

    Not sure if anyone posted this or not, but Comcast just upped their limit to 250mb. Not a free service but still a nice perk for those of use who subscribe to them. I noticed it on the comcast.net homepage, I kinda wondered why they didn't email anyone. Hmmmmmmm.......I better go check my...

    Pepboys selling Rhino Ramps for $15.99 in Delaware

    Ummmmm, cause I originally didn't have a 2x4 when I did that, nor was a smart enough to think of it. I dunno, I'd just prefer to pull the pins rather than stashing a 6 ft 2x4 in my already cramped garage, but it's a great idea nonetheless.

    Pepboys selling Rhino Ramps for $15.99 in Delaware

    If you use common sense when using ramps, just like anything else, they are safe. Block the rear wheels so your car cannot roll back, use the ebrake as well. For you people using Rhino ramps and have the problem of them slipping forward on the garage floor as you drive up them, get a impact...

    Toshiba 80 hour TIVO Series 2/with Progressive DVD player $199 AR

    For you guys wanting a digital VCR, just use an old PC with a video capture card, like the ATI All-In-Wonder or WinTV PVR.....get a RF remote control if it doesn't come with one. I recommend this so you don't need to have line of sight to the receiver......thus allowing you to hide the PC, even...

    High Quality HID Xenon Headlight conversion kit - $359

    High Quality HID Xenon Headlight conversion kit - $359

    It's already been somewhat addressed, but yellow is not the color we see best in, nor is it the color of daylight. Don't confuse the actual color of the sun with the light is emits. Daylight is recognized as 5500 K which is almost a pure, white light. Too much yellow is just as bad as too...

    High Quality HID Xenon Headlight conversion kit - $359

    The reason STIs and S2000's flicker in your rearview is because of the sharp beam cutoff that is necessary to cut down on glare. When the car hits bumps, you get the "flicker" effect because the beam cutoff line is being raised and lowered, giving you bursts of the bright light you would see...

    42" Plasma HDTV Ready @ Fry's $2499

    Can someone who knows about these post an FAQ of some sort? I am in the market for one but I really don't know what to get, and I don't want some commissioned salesman to tell me what I need since I could potentially drop 7 grand on one of these. I hear that these plasmas have different...

    Cisco PIX 501 help

    Trial and error is how I did it. Before this PIX, I had never worked with a Cisco device, or anything more complex than a Linksys router. I started off with the PDM interface which is the built in web server. I continue to use it because I feel it is the easiest to support over the phone. I...
