Steam - Metro 2033 66% off Today (10/27)

If the developers from STALKER worked on this game, then I will pass (actually, just insert the STALKER name instead of Metro 2033, and the review is still accurate). While I bought and beat the first two, the games were unstable and horribly frustrating many times throughout. One game crash...

AR-15 Stripped Lower Receiver

Good deal. Unfortunately, I live in Kalifornia, and cannot take advantage of this deal, at least not directly. Seeing more and more of this lately-off list lowers (OLL) can be sold in CA with no problem, and there is a large market here for them, but most companies just say "screw it" and...

24" Westinghouse L2410NM Widescreen LCD Monitor (1920 x 1200 resolution, HDMI)

Bought 2 of these. One is gorgeous, rivals my Dell 2407-HC, better in gaming (little to no ghosting at 70FPS at 1900x1200). On the other the digital input burnt out, getting replaced under warranty Honestly, I would not buy the monitor again after seeing what alot of people are...

Download speed suffereing-router, or throttling?

Hmmm. I just find it odd that an HTTP request would have such an impact on downloading. I expect their to be some, but I found that a little extreme. I will see about taking the router out of the equation later on to see if there is a difference with and without it. I am probably just...

issue driving me insane

wayliff, Sorry to hear about your plight. I was having similar issues when my Comcast modem went out. Multiple systems and cards plugged directly in to the modem would not gen an address. It eventually required a hard reboot from Comcast. It sound like you have tested everything, but...

Here is my take on BB as of late. I have heard about BB misleading customers in store with the internal website of inflated prices. Bad stuff. I ordered the WD Mybook 500GB external HDD when it was backordered, and it shipped within 6 days. Good Stuff. I ordered a bunch of DVD sets...

Vista support for 4 GB?

Howdy all. Simple question. Can Vista and XP support/address 4 GB of system memory, or is that reserved for the 64 bit OS space? I have been reading a few articles lately as I am going to build a new rig when I get back from the sand box. I thought that XP and Vista supported 4 GB...

$399 Widescreen lappy @ BB

Wasn't cyrix known to be the redneck pentium back in the day? Factory overclocked and such? I do remember the winchips from a few years back. I am surprised they are not more popular.

worst bloat ware

Adobe Acrobat Hands down, next to a program called CHCS II we use for healthcare in the military. This thing will eat as much memory as you throw at it, is heavily java based, with a memory leak like a sonofab*&^%. Funny, the backbone of the system, called CHCS I, is pretty much telnet...

Looking for programs that let you send text messages to cell phones

I do not know of any programs, but why don't you try the service provider's site? I know that sprint and verizon offer web based applications, and I imagine everyone else does too. Then your fiancee can message you back to your email address. Google "providers name", text or sms. -Redfoot

External HDD Recommendations (not home built)

Thanks for the assistance. After reading a few other posts, it looks that even with some external aptop HDD's I will need external power. I hear you on the assembly standpoint, yes I could get it cheaper homebuilt, but without playing rebate roulette, the WD looks good for approximately $30...
