Purchased as refurbished unit from A4L. I called A4L who told me to call Marantz but that everything should be covered under warranty as A4L is authorized Marantz dealer. Marantz had me call United Radio who finally got back to me with the rejection. I'll try all 3 companies again...

Hey, all. I'm not sure if this is the appropriate forum, so feel free to correct me and I'll adjust accordingly. I bought a Marantz SR5008 receiver from Accessories4Less on their Black Friday sale. It worked great for a few months, then started throwing a lot of white noise across all...

Anyone have a link for this alleged $199 2GB 6950?

Thread can be closed, went with Thermaltake True Spirit 120.

I've been out of the PC hardware loop for a while. I'm able to purchase the Intel holiday bundle for retail employees. The bundled board, DP67BG, is worth about $150 in the context of the Intel bundle. I'm contemplating purchasing a motherboard separately, so, at the $150 or below...

E-reader (I use night mode in my e-reading app -- screens are too bright for my eyes, even at lowest settings) Digital Comic Reader Newspaper (Pulse is awesome!) Movies when I travel and am not bringing a laptop General internet surfing I find it far easier to surf/read with when...

I have the Iconia and would recommend it. Having owned an Iconia for several months now: IMHO, the screen can be too bright for night time reading in the dark. It's got a great resolution, looks sharp, etc., but it's just too bright at the lowest setting. I ended up placing a protective...

It's due to browser security settings and how Battlelog is implemented. They will be changing this in the future. If you want to see ping, you can add Battlelog to your list of "approved" sites or whatnot, or you can downgrade your security settings (not advised). Or you can wait...

While Origin and the terribad Battlelog have a lot to do with this, it will get better! I've been playing Battlefield games for years. This is just typical, week 1 type stuff for a new Battlefield game. Relax, they'll get it together.

Hey, [H]orde. I need to replace my DIR 655. It is dropping connections with some degree of regularity now. I've tried changing channels, but at this point, I suspect the router is dying of old age. Back when I purchased it, that was a highly recommended router due to many of the...

Any suggestions for an A500 case that does not block the headphone jack? I've read that the official Acer case blocks off that jack.

Thread has gone way off course! It was a pretty good deal if you needed WHS 2011.

My local Staples was completely sold out of all applicable tablets, but THEY suggested that I order on kiosk, have it shipped to the store, then pay at register with discount. No problems at Salem, NH. I went with the Iconia for the mini HDMI and USB functionality.

Hey, gang. Just looking for some opinions on the Xoom now that Android 3.2 is out, and the Xoom underwent a price reduction. In light of the changes in the marketplace, do you think the Xoom is the "it" tablet over the Iconia, Transformer, Thrive, etc.? If not, why? I'm looking for...
