    Notebook woes!

    A can of that stuff is in the mail. I figure the high class problem will be selling extra kyboards on ebay ... for ... $5? Maybe I will get active on some Toshiba forums.

    Notebook woes!

    Today, I decided to look into the 1st notebook that died of alcohol poisoning. After removing 20 screws that I didn't need to, I finally found the 4 that held it in. So much for getting information off the net! Anyway, this was the notebook that wine was spilled on. It stilled smelled like wine...

    hahaha ... pretty much where I am. One, my son would be all over it. His wife & my 2 daughters would be perpetual PITAs! Although the son-in-law would be like my son.

    Duke Nukem Forever Goes Gold!

    haha Rob, you should start writing crime novels. I will be a Duke Nukem Forever buyer, but I will wait a month ... possibly. It might even be sentimental thing for me. :o

    Barnes & Noble: New Nook

    I do have about 300 .pdf files from all kinds of sources ... books, MS Power Points written to .pdf that have no issue with the Nook. I do like the price on your find, but color is useful for me. I bought an 8 GB microSDHC memory expansion card. I wish that I had looked a bit longer &...

    This is all because of the tranisition of the internet from information to a social culture. And, that is why every ISP is putting caps on downloads!!! They want to prevent you from actually garnering entertainment off the net and "guide" you to "their" socilization. Just sayin' ...

    Barnes & Noble Color Nook

    I could spend a few hours in front of the NookColor screen. I believe with WiFi & & full bright, the battery is expected to last 6 hours. No WiFi & back off brightness maybe 10. Which ever, you are not dongled to a charger every chance you get. And, getting to those adjustments is pretty easy...

    How Does a $3 HDMI Cable Compare to a $120 One?

    In a word, "digital". A digital signal, as HDMI, is quite immune to attenuation. Another effect is crosstalk or noise in one pair caused by adjacent pairs. This is length dependent so shorter cables will be pretty immune to that effect also. I have been buying my HDMI cables from monoprice.com...

    LED desk lamps

    Sounds like you have compact fluorescent... aka CFLs. Since your already running these I am not sure that I would bother with a change out to LEDs. Pure white as in sun light? Or, just whiter than incandescents or halogen? In that case these are just below day light at high noon (literally)...

    I think I need a full-tower...

    Sooooo you got an 800D? I saw this in a Lian Li (slide 15) & it looks pretty appealing ... that m/b pan opening up. It looks like an easy system to work with ... after having just cleaned and vacuumed 4 machines.:(

    LED desk lamps

    Yup, the these LED lamps are a definite shift from the yellow part of the spectrum that incandescents & halogens are in. I forgot that I did immediately notice ... and immediately forgot ... again.:confused: When making the changes it is more complicated than just noting actual power...
