    warning: ZipZoomFly may be going under

    as evidenced by failure to pay a myriad of rebates and inaccessibility of customer service. Ordered WD15EARS in March, never got the rebate, and don't think I will, just read my review on reseller ratings and the others there. They have a lifetime rating of 8.24 and recently dropped to 4.5...

    Atma -- 2 issues

    I think that the atma system can work well here, but as it stands now it is very distracting for me. There are 2 issues: 1.) There are too many links. Take a look at this thread, the first post has 12 (twelve!) ad links. Some are repeated (the same text). Post # 3 is a few sentences yet...

    H55 / H57 mITX boards: post them here

    H55/H57 are the ones that have video out for clarkdale. Of course you have heard of intel's H57 board from IDF2009: http://www.hardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1454315 pretty "meh" IMO, with the CPU dangerously close to the pcie slot, probably pointless if you want to use the pcie slot at all...

    Any HAM or CB Radio experts?

    I'm having a strange issue. My computer speakers are picking up someone's radio signal. I can hear 1 end of the conversation and it is somewhat faint, but I can also hear a 'squelch' like they are releasing a PTT button. Also, specifically while the person is talking, my RF mouse stops...

I jumped back and luckily it stopped after a few seconds...

    Cisco 870 vs 1800

    I'm looking at getting a cisco 871 to route about 30 users to a DSL line, and it looks like it would handle the job ok but the cisco specs say 'recommended for up to 20 users'. Is there any reason the 1800 series can handle more users than the 870 series on just basic internet access (not...

    toner transfer pcb etching

    I'm looking to etch a pcb using the toner transfer method, Its actually more of an art project so I really want it to be detailed. The toner transfer sounds like it has the potential to be detailed enough and I don't want to mess around with photoresists. What I really need is a good way to...

    Anyone used this monitor? Seems to be identical to the s73 except it has dvi and is the same price ~430 at the egg. Anyone with experience on the s73? Can't search for it b/c s73 is too short :( My other choice would be the samsung 710t.
