Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Why not go back to dual-sided media, like DVDs or Laserdiscs back in the day? :D
Hey, that gives me an idea. Why not make a BD drive with lasers on both sides? That way you wouldn't have to get up in the middle of the movie to flip the disc.
It's like the difference between a $20 500 watt PSU and a $120 500 watt PSU. Sure, they'll both power your computer, but which one do you think will last longer, and which one will do a better job? I used to buy the el-cheapo blades from Wal-Mart, but I was replacing them at least once a year...
Like the title says, I'm moving, and I'd like to get rid of some of the excess stuff I've been collecting. All the items will be listed first, and the terms and conditions will be at the bottom. Please read the entire post before asking any questions.

I'm looking for a good MiniPCI 802.11g card for my fiance's laptop (a Toshiba Satellite something-or-other, 2.6 Celeron, 512MB, DVD/CD-RW, WinXP Home). Chipset doesn't matter, as long as it's 802.11G compatible. I don't want to spend more than $30 if possible. If you have a card that you...
I have one of those around here somewhere. It came with an internal card reader/USB hub. It won't work for a floppy drive, but you won't kill your drive if you accidentally plug it in.
FYI: You don't have to have a business name to buy from Dell Small Business. Just put your name wherever it asks for business name If they ever did ask (which they won't), just tell them you're self-employed.
I tried the standard mATX style power supply, but this one is definitely a proprietary form factor. It's about 1/2" wider and taller on the back, and it's at least an inch longer inside. Also, only two of the screw holes line up. I'll try that case Tiny suggested, it looks like a Compaq case...
A few months ago, I built a computer for my aunt and uncle, using this case from NewEgg. It worked fine until early December, when it started randomly rebooting and other locking up. I determined the problem was the power supply, so I ordered a replacement which I thought was correct...
If it's the same pinout as a CF card, why not use a CF header and build our own cables? A quick search at Mouser finds this header. Add a foot or two of 50 wire ribbon cable here, and the appropriate connector for your CD-ROM, and you're set. Of course, you have to do a ton of soldering to...
