    3D Printers Will Cost Less Than A PC by 2016?

    They definitely need to get a lot better before they get more mainstream. The Makerbot machines getting a lot of the spotlight lately are poorly designed,inconsistently manufactured, finicky to use pieces of junk. Until things get more plug and play, 3d printers are going to stay strictly in the...

    AM3 processor on AM2/AM2+ board, DDR2

    Using that exact sort of setup right now, works great, have had the board since 2009, was running an X2 5200 for a while on it. The only thing it leaves me wanting is more RAM

    AMD Radeon HD 7770 CrossFire Bundle Lucky Draw

    I've been a HardOCP reader and ATI user since before the Radeon 8500 was released. The new 77xx cards are my dream cards: Performance, Quiet, and Efficient.

    Check your Battle.net accounts

    I'm really disliking this "single player" but you have to be connected to a blizzard server to play, and it likes to d/c. Seems to dc most when using the hearth stone, and the last i played it froze when i tried to go further into the cathedral

    UPS OR Spike Guard - Getin Bad Sectors !

    Honestly, I haven't had an HDD go bad on me since putting UPS's on both machines in the apt. I've found we get minor power bumps/drops quite frequently in this building and the last. UPS is a good piece of mind. Costco usually has a decent price on APC UPSs

    Ace Combat Assault Horizon Demo

    Tried it out today, not a fan so far. The DFM is neat at first, but I don't play Ace Combat to have the computer more or less fly the plane for me. Ace Combat to me was always about full control and sometimes insane difficulty.

    iMAC Have Tiger 10.4,worth buying a new MAC?

    I've got several of that same gen of iMac at work, and can also confirm Apple support is feeding you a load of crap about Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard will definitely install on a 10.4/10.5 or blank HDD. Backup your stuff because any upgrade has the potential for disaster. Ram + Snow Leopard...

    How To Carry Your iMac

    Given how many of those old G5 iMacs have bad capacitors, there should definitely be a "place imac in the trash" line in there.

    Looking for a Android Phone

    The xda wiki is pretty good http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision for the info about rooting it. As for CM7, get the latest nightly, it's pretty stable right now. Only thing I've really changed with it so far has been the keyboard and launcher.

    Trying to like Android?

    The Cyanogenmod 7.1 nightlys are pretty speedy on my Desire Z. I didn't care for the default "ADW Launcher" though and switched it back to the stock Gingerbread launcher. If the gingerbread keyboard isn't your thing, try out the HTC IME keyboard it's pretty decent.

    wireless gaming adapter

    Slim ps3's don't have Wireless N, wish they did but they don't. I've got at D-Link DAP-1522 bridge hooked up to my ps3 to get a wireless N connection to my DIR-655, and *most* times i can stream 720p HD, but not always. I'm seriously thinking about going back to ethernet.
