    Frys B&M only now $299 for a 11.6 inch ultraportable Pentium Dual Core u5600, 3gb

    This looks like a rebrand of Acer's well-reviewed as1430z-4677: http://www.amazon.com/Acer-AS1430Z-4.../dp/B004ETSGG8 I picked one up for a sibling back in April, for $370. Great little machine, but it seemed to have vanished from stock at most places a few months later. Can't help but...

    Benq FP937s vs Viewsonic VP192b (or which 12ms 19" LCD)

    I play mostly ut2004, doom3 and (heh) starcraft, but fired up serious sam, quake2, alice and max payne. All smooth and without ghosting. No experience with benq, the 937s has a weaker backlight (250cd/m2), lesser viewing angle, and no pivot. At $550, I have nothing against it -- for some...

    Benq FP937s vs Viewsonic VP192b (or which 12ms 19" LCD)

    I ordered the VP912B from PC Nation ($680 shipped 3-day) and received it last Friday. My previous LCDs were an 18" 25ms (Compaq TFT8030) and a 17" 16ms (Planar PX171M) -- all hot deals found a few forums over, here. :) The thin bezel, stand, and pivot functionality are all great. The...

    PLANAR PX171M-BK 17-inch Multimedia LCD Monitor (Lukewarm)

    Auric, I just tried techconnect and sure enough, they changed their color scheme. :) Try pasting this into an html file and let me know if it flickers when you browse it. Maybe I've got a duff unit... <html> <body bgcolor=#405060> test </body> </html>

    PLANAR PX171M-BK 17-inch Multimedia LCD Monitor (Lukewarm)

    I got one of these from Dell when they "oopsed" them for $310 back in November. The 16ms is nice for gaming, no doubt about that. Colors and brightness are decent, although the brightness is a little uneven around the edges. Certain colors, particularly in the grey range, seem to flicker. The...

    JA Henckels 16-Piece Knife Block Set- $89

    Ordered one, nice deal. BTW, it is a little disingenuous of amazon to imply you're saving $125, when they sell the thing brand-new for $79.99. :)

    Free word processor Abiword!

    Use whatever you want. It's the interoperability and longevity of the file formats that matter. Document lock-in (look what IE has done to the web) is evil.

    Samsung 191T - 19" LCD for $843.00 FREE Shipping

    $820 shipped at thenerds.net By the time you get done adding tax to the rebranded dell, you're better off with the samsung (3yr warranty vs. 1yr from dell -- worth having on such a pricey item). * I think there's a price cut filtering through on these (Amazon briefly had them for $799 shipped...

    update on Amazon Kitchen GC promo

    No, but I'm glad I'm not the only one keeping an eye out. A few days after I ordered $51 worth of stuff, I noticed the promo had been changed to $60, then $70 or $75. It would have been nice to get a confirmation email that said "you've met the basic qualifying terms and will get $30 if you...

    DLink DWL-650+ Wireless 22MBPS PC Card = $51 and DLINK Wireless Router - $81 : $142 for both (coup/MIR) -SHIPPED AMAZON

    If anyone is thinking of getting the combo, just a heads up: I don't think the 713P is 22Mbps rated. If you want that top speed, you need one of the "AirPlus" models, like the 614+ router or 900+ WAP. See here.

    Toshiba laptop 1005-S157 back in stock at amazon

    quick note for those "on the fence" who are put off by the listed 8m of video ram: latest intel drivers allow for 32m or 48m of video ram (depending on total amount of system memory) check it here saw a google post that claims a 74% increase in q3 framerate, from a playable 34fps to a decent...

    fixed rebate link! noticed they had "01,02" (not "01.02") on another (working) toshiba rebate link. bingo. if you go to the web-rebates.com link, you can "pre-certify" your rebate and, allegedly, speed it along. ordered & thx infinitelight.

    WHO IS GONNA WIN??? Still Counting at 5:33am here in CA!!!

    I think we oughta adopt Canada's tactic of eliminating polls in the weeks before the election. Not only do polls *clog* the media, but they allow candidates to play this stupid game of fine-tuning their platforms to grab the swing votes, pushing what ups their numbers and setting aside what...

    bad athlon?

    Was helping my bro put together a tbird 800 for his g/f the other day. First pass was using an A7V with 128M Crucial PC133, powerman 250W PS, Rage IIC agp and an mx300. Using Win98SE and all appropriate and possible patches and BIOS settings, there was a terrible audio crackling/popping problem...

    No sound w/DFI AK74-SC

    Make sure &quot;onboard sound&quot; (in one of the other cmos setup screens, right above or below &quot;onboard modem&quot;) is also enabled. It seems redundant or wrong, but I found it necessary.
