    Just purchased a 21.5" iMac

    I decided to go with the iMac due to the fact that I perform 99% of my work at my desk, and price. For not much more than the price of a mac mini, you can have a complete computer with an led monitor. It seemed like a great buy to me! This is not my first mac. In the past, I have had a power...

    Help with alienware aurora m7700.

    It sounds like the power supply is going. Those are classic symptoms of a bad psu. Just my opinion.

    Just purchased a Dell Inspiron 1545 Laptop...

    I purchased it at Best Buy tonight. I wanted a laptop for surfing the web, e-mailing, light photo editing, and for taking to class. I also wanted to be able to dual boot Ubuntu 8.10, and from everything that I have read, there is little to no issues with Dell's. Last, but not least, I wanted to...

    For those that use Linux at home...

    Great replies everyone!I have taken several classes on Linux for my associates degree in network administration (almost done with it) and look forward to learning more every day. I have to admit, that I will always more than likely need a windows install (for gaming), but Linux seems to be a...

    For those that use Linux at home...

    Do you use it for everything in your daily computing activities (including on-line banking and purchasing on-line)? Or do you still need to use other Os's in order to get your daily tasks done? I thought it would be neat to see how home users use Linux in their daily computing activities, and...

    Question regarding 4870 X2....grade the video card to a 4870 x2.

    Yeah I think the 4870 X2 is a great card, ATI just needs to work on the drivers. I guess I'm sticking with NVIDIA for the foreseeable future.

    Question regarding 4870 X2....grade the video card to a 4870 x2.

    Update: Arma Queen's Gambit refuses to run. The menu is all blocky and you can not even resemble anything. I'm really thinking I may have to go return this card tomorrow. :(

    Question regarding 4870 X2....grade the video card to a 4870 x2.

    I went ahead and bought a Visiontek 4870 X2. There is definitely a performance gain, however it is not what I expected. I upgraded the power supply to a Corsair 1000W, and changed out the video card. The rest of the system is as is in my sig. Lord of the Rings Online Runs between 30-60 fps with...
