Free Cendyne CD Burner AMIRs July 20-26 @ OM

Let's see here.... Cendyne is known to be just about rebadged-anything, SOMETIMES Lite-on. But seriously, I know Lite-on will give you slightly better burn times/can burn any copy protection, but the average Joe won't need to search for such a thing. Supposedly, this is a substitute, as the...

Logitech Cordless Elite Duo MX....$$ off-Staples

I type what I see, what I find. Perhaps I didn't address that in the best of ways. But, for your information, I am not a uber-geek like you (notice the name), so I don't run mine through a fine-toothed comb. The fact that you had time to reply with a sentence that benefits no one is sad...

Logitech Cordless Elite Duo MX....$$ off-Staples

With so many posts on Staples coupons (including 15 off 75), did it JUST expire or something? $5 is $5....I know it doesn't work online, but a lot of times, a CSR will take it over the phone.

Logitech Cordless Elite Duo MX....$$ off-Staples

At least on ole' "Chunky Man-Purse", I've seen people begging for a deal on the Logitech Elite...yeah, yeah...don't want to type it all. It's a great product(s), as it combines the MX 700 with the black/silver cordless keyboard seen elsewhere. The mouse alone is still expensive at places, so...

Warm: Timex SS Chrono watch for $20 at Campmor

For the Chrono, am I right in saying that it has a blue (not purple) face? Couldn't tell on my monitor....

New CHEAP system quandary....

Alright, so building this computer is out of the question. Family member wants a cheap, brand-name. I seem to have three choices. They all fall around $550-600 dollars with MIRs. Components will differ. So, I've looked at Dell, Compaq, and HP (only two, then really). We've bought Dell...

OCing a GF4 Ti 4200 128

Ugh...I MAY be slightly retarded....hit enter button before entering anything... This has probably been discussed, but perhaps something new may be mentioned. Bought my XP 2000+ system last July or so. Came with a GF4 Ti 4200, 128 MB. Albatron brand. This is a "newcomer", but relatively...

Help w/ # of fans

My case is an Antec SX1040, just like the Alienware cases. My problem is this: what should the ambient case temp./CPU temp. stay around? I have two output fans on the back, and one input under the optical drives. Because my Ti4200 was cheaper than usual (albatron), the cooling on it isn't...

Need help OC XP 2000+

Okay. I've built computers for years, but I'm pretty new to the concept of overclocking. I've always been protective with my own hard-earned things. I have the MSI KT3 ULTRA-ARU w/ XP 2000+. As most know, MSI has the program Fuzzy Logic, an easy way to get into OC. This is just my thing...

RAID on MSI KT3-ULTRA

I have both a DVD and a CDRW drive, with one Maxtor HD. The MSI mb that I have also has RAID. I've been reading, but I can't tell how to put the HD on one of the RAID channels. Isn't it possible? So that all three of the drives would have their own channel? However, I thought I read...

(Dead) Various 40x12x48 CDRW for $19.99 0r "FREE" AR & AC w/free CD Player at OfficeMax (in limited area) or by phone.

Oh the wonders of the modern telephone... I was pissed after local B&M store wouldn't give the coupon. After searching at another local OM store, I saw that they were out AND they didn't have any of the same deals (especially since models may vary). At the Circuitcity, they had plenty of the...

(Dead) Various 40x12x48 CDRW for $19.99 0r "FREE" AR & AC w/free CD Player at OfficeMax (in limited area) or by phone.

I swear to GOD! These people are starting to piss me off.... Earlier today, they had no Cendynes but some of the I/O Magic. Well, I didn't want an I/O Magic. So, after much thought, I returned, resigning to buy the I/O Magic. They had none! But....interesting bit....someone had found four...

Super flaming hot!!! Maxtor 40GB 7200rpm HD for $9.99 AR @OfficeDepot - DEAD DEAL

I called OD today. Since I ordered Sunday, when both coupons were still available, I'm fine for both. However, I feel like ordering another one for a friend. Everytime I've looked, they've been in stock (perhaps because of Atlanta location). I already have a second address at sister's...

Placement of drives

I'm having a hard time figuring this one out... Right now, I have one Maxtor 80gb HD, an Artec DVD-ROM, and a QPS 16x CDRW drive. I don't have the CDRW hooked up, because I can't figure out how to place them. I have the MSI KT3 ULTRA ARU mb, so I have two ATA133 ports and two for RAID. I...
