Windows XP: WTF is that typing noise?

Every once in a while, I'm just sitting here dicking around on the internet (IE6 on WinXP) and I hear this weird-ass typing/clicking sound come over the speakers. It seems like nothing I did could have triggered it. So I went through the whole sound assignment menu in control panel, and I...

Radeon 7500 and GF2 Ti500 for $129.0: Which would be best?

If you're an image quality freak or you want a dual monitor setup, I would go with the Radeon 7500. If you're more interested in overall speed, the GF2 is probably the better card, and I think the $65 GTS-V with some overclocking would be about 90% as fast as the ti. The 7500 is basically a...

OEM 1ghz athlon $67 @ newegg.com

Guys, take a look at pretty much any vendor on pricewatch and I think you'll see that newegg is probably the least guilty of shipping profits. They charge $7-10 for FedEx for a single item, and always have free shipping specials on many items. I have noticed that when ordering multiple items...

Hostages in Afghanistan

IMO, pushing your religion on someone is just about half as bad as using your religion to justify killing. Those people were stupid, if selfless in their own eyes, and will suffer the conseqeunces of their stupidity. Here's hoping they get out OK and learn some common sense, in that order...

.

My order status says that each bag is $39.99. How the f*ck can they get away with changing the price like that? My $9.00 order is now over $1,000! The worst part is, on my past orders its too late to call and cancel an order even minutes after its been placed, according to the CSRs.

RADEON 32 Meg DDR OEM (not LE) $98 SHIPPED

Guys, the picture means nothing. Its not even a real picture, its rendered. It was taken right from the ATI site: http://www.ati.com/na/pages/products/pc/radeon32_ddr/index.html Given that all the other Radeons in this price range are LE's, what do you think this is gonna be? FWIW, a Radeon...

LCD Flat Panel: preserving the backlight

Thanks for the response, that is kind of what I suspected. Its really too bad that flat panels don't handle games better. As it is, I think I'll be switching to a dual monitor setup so I can use my CRT monitor for games.
