    TV-out Options

    I just picked up a T60 which lenovo made the brilliant decision to drop the S-video port after having been on Thinkpads for the past 10 years. What options do I have for video out without buying a $400 Advanced Dock I'd have to lug around? I looked into an old Margi DVD-to-Go card which has...

    HTPC Case (Athenatech A100)

    Does anyone have any experience with the Athenatech A100 mATX case? Newegg's price is pretty good for a HTPC'ish case and the reviews I found online seemed fairly positive. At the moment I'm running a Socket 370 Celeron 1.4 so heat isn't much of an issue. I'm interested in anyone's experiences...
