    Late 2008 MacBook

    SSD on this little machine makes a world of difference, Id say the speed of this system rivals my sisters 2011 13" MBP with i7. However I am jealous of the battery life the new systems have.

    Decent gaming headset for reasonable price?

    I too would say a standard pair of headphones with the clip on mic, the best setup I've used was my HD555's with zalman mic. When I switched to a "normal" headset from creative all my friends bitched about background noise in vent, where I didnt have that with the zalman mic. Also the HD555's...

    Best setup under $150

    I went from pro media 2.1s to bx5a's and im very happy with this decision, the pro media 2.1s are just so bass heavy even with the sub gain turned down to near minimum. With the bx5a's you get a more clear sound and I love listening to music with them, playing games and watching movies...

    Looking for the best 27" under $500...

    Honestly if your main purpose is gaming on your xbox the asus VE278Q would be the best choice for the money. I had one and a xbox 360 connected to it, it worked fine and had no problems with it. It would honestly be a waste of money to get a U2711 for xbox 360 primary use. You would be more...

    Want 580 GTX 3GB x 2, any good deals/discounts for newegg/tigerdirect?

    I highly doubt a 580 would be on a black friday deal, most likely a 560/570 at best :/

    Show Your LCD(s) setups!!!

    U3011, I love the 20/30/20 setup. I actually spent a weekend building the desk, got tired of buying desks and never being happy.
