From our front-page news: This past fall, we first found out about Fusion-io, a company that aimed to essentially produce an SSD within a PCI-E card. As we found out soon after, it definitely has some bragging rights. Given the incredible bandwidth of the PCI-E bus, the top-end speeds were...

From our front-page news:Back in May of 2005, Time magazine published a wonderful article on the just announced, not-yet-released, Xbox 360. In the article, the author was able to sit down with Bill Gates and go behind the scenes of the 360 before it was launched later that year. One of the...

From our front-page news: That's the important question being asked, and after taking a look at all the facts, it's a hard one to answer. With Windows Vista, Microsoft wasn't too shy about getting information out long before its release. It was also the first version of Windows that had a rather...

I have too much connected to the router right now to have any desire to unhook it all. This PC is on a DMZ though, isn't that supposed to allow unrestricted access to whatever? Or is that just for traffic alone? As for the cable box, it's a Toshiba PCX2600, and the router is an ASUS WL-700gE.

From our front-page news: Think back to about ten years ago. How many people did you know that owned a Mac? Chances are, despite that they were still well-designed computers, probably not too many. Since then, though, things have changed dramatically. Apple now holds a good percentage of PC...

LOL! Thanks for the vote of confidence. I also followed-up to this, since the bill was passed: http://forums.techgage.com/showthread.php?t=4527 Perhaps it's time to watch more Canadian TV... I don't think I've seen a single commercial one one of those stations (although, I think our...

From our front-page news: Last Tuesday, we posted about the potential delay for the digital transition, which was passed by the Senate but denied by the House the very next day. Well, it seemed unlikely that the House would have a change of heart, but that's exactly what seemed to happen. The...

That machine looks GREAT Merlin, great job on it. It's awesome to see the color red so heavily used. There's not enough of that out there. Anything's other than blue or green is a good choice in my book, hah. Kind of like this!

That's what I thought. I just get some blank page. I'm not even sure that's supposed to happen, because when I called for support once, they told me to go to that IP, and still nothing showed. The way he was talking, I should have seen something. Oh well... net works, so that's all I can about.

People just like to complain, and that's about it. This is especially true when it comes to Microsoft, because a lot of people have a severe love/hate relationship with them. They'll continue to use Windows as their main OS, but still curse out the company whenever they have the chance. It makes...

The absolute best idea I saw in the Ars forums was that since the conversion box coupons seem to be the main issue, the government should just offer a tax credit to whoever has to go out and purchase one. Not only would that be a lot easier on everyone, people could get their box far quicker...

Is Dotto even outside of the US? I used to watch his shows a long time ago (must've been over ten years ago), and loved it. Saw an episode a few years ago though, and I was bored out of my skull. Might not help that it's designed for the novice computer user, though. As for the Leafs, good...

Hah, moon111, remind me to never meet you in person ;-) Stork, I agree, that video is perfect.

I thought the same thing, but I've managed to go over every single month for the past while. Last month, I went over 2GB, and a few months ago, I went over 20GB. At $1.50 per extra gigabyte, it sucks to go over too far, haha. Sometimes I'm not even sure how I hit the limit, but I do a lot of...

I'm not sure if it's the same thing though. Amazon and Zune have to deal with the music industry... I don't think Newegg would have to deal with the same kind of hassles. Plus, they don't have a warehouse in Canada... all they are doing is just converting their site to Canadian prices and...

From our front-page news: By now, you probably all know about the porn that aired for up to thirty seconds during the Super Bowl this past Sunday. It apparently only affected Comcast subscribers in Tuscon, Arizona, but it was clearly hilarious enough to become the most popular story on...

I admit... I hate my current cell phone, but I can honestly say I'm glad that it's never attempted to kill me. In China, that's exactly what happened to one man. He put in a freshly charged battery and put the phone in his shirt. It exploded, and he sadly died. Whether or not the battery was...

I was always confused about why Business didn't include Media Center, but had cost more. I figured it was just due to the fact that they expected it to be used in business scenarios only, but even still. I agree about the Home Basic as well... that release never made any sense over here.

Hah, looking forward to the final pics man. I LOVE that red tubing. If I ever get un-lazy and decide to put time into a rig, I'll have to use something similar.

Hi Faifstarr, and welcome to the forums! By US prices, €1,116 would be about $1,436USD, which seems quite high for what you have listed there, to be honest. That motherboard is somewhat lower-end, and the CPU is only a Dual-Core. I'm not sure why that was able to reach $1,000, much less...
