    A brand new [H]ard|OCP

    My only comment is that the top 2 content areas (extending from the Featured Articles to Top News) are cramped. Really cramped. It might just be an issue of the text being overbright (maybe use #E5E5E5 or something like that instead of #FFFFFF), or the section headers needing to be taller...

    Apple's New Products

    ::ahem:: my 1ghz 15" Powerbook (512MB/Radeon 9600) ran WoW without a problem at native resolution, and that was in the open beta, before the latest patches. Anyway, to give a simple, straightforward answer, January 11 is the next Macworld expo, and the next logical spot for a new Powerbook...

    Dimension 8400 transfered to a New Case?

    I just did this (though not with that particular model). Basically, though everything was a pain to get out, it was just a standard ATX motherboard- all mounting holes lined up, and the PSU is the same physical size- the wires on the ATX plug are swapped however. (And there's no guarantee that...

    Dell Case Question

    You can find an adapter that will convert from a standard ATX PSU to a Dell motherboard here. My fiance is in a similar situation - needs to install a second HD in her tower, but there's no bracket, plus the 145 watt PSU wouldn't handle it. We finally found that adapter online, so hopefully...

    Worklog: Apple Media Center Edition

    Looks interesting. I have an old (dead) LCII (Viewable here) that I was considering using for a similar project (movies, mame, etc). It's a little harder since the LC case is significantly shorter (only tall enough for a 40MM fan) and not quite as deep.... but still worth watching yours for...

    Computer euthanasia...

    Ok, sticking with the original rules of no obvious physical damage, no fire, and no opening the case... the idea on page 1 about a car battery and a couple alligator clips works well - the compusa i worked at years ago (i quit the first summer that P4s were retailing) if we had a computer that...

    Blurry Monitor

    Actually, you might want to try changing where the monitor is plugged in. In my building at work, we have a ton of the same model Sony CRTs...high end ones (it's an ad agency, makes sense). Anyway, we've had a ton of problems with the monitors going 'out of focus' in a manner that can't be fixed...

    Power supply for VIA C3?

    Ok, so I ended up with a dead Mac LC (viewable here, though mine didn't have the monitor. Missing processor, sketchy looking SCSI HD cable, and some motherboard corrosion. Oh- and it was sitting in my fiance's trunk for the last 7 months. Oops. So yeah, it's dead, and I decided to play...
