blackviper.com Is has a pretty good guide too. I always use it on a fresh install for the list of services to change.

BMW 325I

After rereading this post it looks like we have different people looking at different angles as to what makes a car better than other. some people are talking about performance and driving nature while others are talking about best bang for buck. i agree though, for the average joe who doesn't...

BMW 325I

I would also look into getting a 330 over the 325, but that is not to say the 325 should be disrespected like it is in this thread. Given the choice between a nissian maxima or a bmw 325 whatever year i would choose bimmer all day long (provided we are talking about 5speeds). That line by an...

I'll probably end up doing this too. I think some of you guys take for granted how much you know about computers. There would be no easy 10 minute explaination for this buddy of mine. He is right in the middle of college classes and doesn't care how a computer works, he just wants it to work...

so do i have the same speakers if mine say the Sonic XS on them? That's what the box says as well. I think that logo looks like crap as well, but hey the sound makes up for it.

reporting in from madison, WI. I just bought a pair (sonic XS) from the compusa near target for 49.99 and tax. The speakers sound great! The bass is nice and full and I'm not getting distortion at LOUD levels. I missed out on these speakers the last hot deal when they were $30 but I'm glad I...

This is what I tried to the first time i set up the computer for him and it still eventually got a bunch of spyware and those stupid add-on internet search bars. It think it was the case that everything I told him went in one ear and out the other. That and he is in college and he lets people...
