    Newegg style ebusiness?

    The search function on newegg's site is incredibly useful. Being able to search for several very specific criteria is great. e.g.: Show only AMD AM2 motherboards with eSATA ports using a P45 chipset by ASUS. or Show only nvidia AGP video cards with HDTV out. It would be nice to go to a...

    Who else reinstalls without the need to?

    since win98 days i've always had a seperate hd for data (now a seperate file server) so i never had to worry about data loss when formatting. i used to do it every 4-6 months or so, but since xp it's more like once a year at most.

    Dongles?

    In general, are tv out dongles interchangeable? For example, if I have a dongle that has component out on it, can that be used on a card that came with a dongle that didn't have the component connectors? The plug is the same.

    How to proceed regarding calibration

    http://epaperpress.com/monitorcal/ did me a little good back before I had calibration hardware, and also you may check out Nokia Monitor Tools. More of a functionality test than calibration, but you will notice if something is very wrong. If you're serious about calibration, the Spyder2 starts...

    How to proceed regarding calibration

    There are some tools that let you calibrate by eye, even some web pages, check google for several options But the real answer is that calibration without a professional tool is not calibration, it's still going to be subjective and based on the type of ambient light, your biases, etc. You...

    Can you tell a significant difference between a dslr and a point n shoot on auto?

    maybe. probably. but what's the point of getting a dslr to use it in auto mode? the whole advantage of an slr vs p&s is that it has more functionality. if you are happy with the camera you have, keep it! OTOH, if you're interested in expanding your skills as a photographer, you will...

    Dell's sale on the 2407WFP

    i just pulled the trigger on this monitor this week after a lot of waiting around. I was previously running 2 Dell P1130 21" crt's. This is probably the single most beneficial purchase I've made in years. With the coupon (i got mine on ebay) it comes down to $543. The coupon is dicounted...

    Online Gaming going down the tubes!

    As i stated...it's entirely possible, and i'm sure that it happens. YOU said that it was MOST of them. I disagree. The cards aren't the thing i'm talking about cheating with, of course, that's extremely easy. But how do you program a machine to know when to bet, check, or raise to get the...

    Online Gaming going down the tubes!

    I'm all for regulation. I'm sure Harrah's and Trump would love to get into the internet game. It'd be great for the players too. It's pointless, but I'd like to know...I've done some programming as a hobbyist for a few years, how could one begin to program a computer generated player in a...

    Online Gaming going down the tubes!

    This is a very dramatic and complex scenario you have imagined....where have you heard or seen any evidence of this? lol, this is really about the most absurd thing for you to sit here and argue something you don't even know to be true, and you don't even understand the mechanics of the game...

    Online Gaming going down the tubes!

    ok, so what...they hire a person as a ringer to compete in this tournament? or are you suggesting that they have software that can outplay people? no software has been developed that can play more than 1on1 effectively. If they're hiring a ringer...what could they be paying that person? If...
