How is Laser Printer/Toner open shelf life?

I'm debating getting a cheap monochrome laser printer for assignments. I've always used an inkjet printer. The issue I've noticed is if you don't use them enough, even with cleaning, the print head eventually has issues (and ink runs out, but usually at a slower rate. Old Canon S530D by the...

Coolermaster Stacker STC-T01 Silver / Black $120 AMIR

Worst case? Not really. It's like saying a $2000 gaming rig is the worst computer ever. Worst maybe if you just want a word processor, but it has it's uses. I've got this case, and couldn't be happier. Plan on loading it up with drives over time as my media server. Almost to 1 TB already...

Free Minute Maid Frozen Product

These things are great..... I got a box of 36 a couple months ago (Bulk at BJ's), and I've gotten two or three boxes since then.......... It's like they are laced with drugs...... Haven't even been tempted to get any other sort of frozen novelty....

I need a router that caps upload...

Software on the client computers isn't something I think is really an option. I will look into QoS though. And even though it's a consumer broadband connection, I don't think it will stop him... Probably need a warning notice before he would....

I need a router that caps upload...

Ok, the thing is, the person I will be living with in about a month (and sharing a connection with) is going to be running a game server 24/7. I've browsed the internet with torrent uploads maxed, and it usually slows down worse then dial-up connecting to sites. Does anyone know of a router I...

Best TV card w/o delay (For PS2)?/

I'm well aware, but since this is on a real-world usage basis, It can be considered no lag.

Best TV card w/o delay (For PS2)?/

Yeah, I've tried my current with DScaler with all deinterlacing algorithms, even with settings turned off in the card settings (and with pixel width or whatever set to 320), from the card and not the DPlay in, and it still has a slight delay (I've compared it to the TV, and I can still feel the...

Best TV card w/o delay (For PS2)?/

Yeah. I tried getting DScaler to work w/ my Leadtek, but I wasn't able to tweak the settings to minimize the delay. And it is not a card with hardware encoding, so I feel kinda gypped that it has the worst of both worlds. I just bought a Cheapo KWorld from newegg last night for $27 that has...

Best TV card w/o delay (For PS2)?/

I'm looking to replace my Leadtek TV Expert TV tuner because it has a split-second delay (enough so that action games are not really playable). Has anyone here used a capture card on their computer that can confirm that it has no (human noticable) delay because they have played action games on...

Good TV card?

Any chance you know this for a fact with the Theater 550 chip, and aren't just generalizing w/ hardware encoding?? Previous ATI cards were well known to not have any sort of delay, and I'm wondering if this somehow can bypass the hardware encoding to allow that. I really want this card (image...

Will PCI card work on a PCIe 16x Mobo?

I'm looking into getting a new motherboard, and a new video card shortly after. I've currently got a Radeion 9800 Pro, which is AGP, but when I upgrade, I want to ditch the AGP slot, and get a PCIe 16x video card to go with it (which will probably be a week or two later). Does anyone know if...

Logitech MX5000 Desktop: Anyone have it?

I'm looking at this desktop, and there are a few things I'd like clairified before I buy it, since reviews on it aren't very common. Is the mouse and keyboard both bluetooth? I'd like to use the mouse w/ my iBook (BT enabled), but I find it odd that the Mouse is BT, but they haven't...

Is it possible to process Dolby Pro Logic II through Line-In?

Yeah, I plan on using it with a PS2. As far as I know, Pro Logic II's upmixing is targeted towards sounds the programmers of the software encoded to go to certain speakers. I have CyberDVD I think it's called, and have the DPL II plugin. It can read from DVD's and files. I'd like to be able...

Is it possible to process Dolby Pro Logic II through Line-In?

I have seen an increase in things that use Dolby Pro Logic II, but don't feel like upgrading my receiver quite yet. Is it possible to hook a game console up through line-in and have your PC process the sound for you? I use a vid capture card on my server anyways for TV (Seperate from the comp...
