Have one CHI1 5/22 GA, want to trade for one BOS1 GA. Hard ticket in hand, ready to ship.

Can't seem to access the presale :( I need one or two GAs to CHI2 5/23. Paypal, Venmo, check, whatever. I have a long history of buying/selling/trading with other fans via this forum!

Yay or nay? So far I'm going with "nay".... I'm not going to roll back since my computer is working fine and everything I need installed just fine using Windows 7 versions, but so far all the tweaking I've done has made it look and act *not* like Windows 8. Admittedly, I am resistant to...

Any good resources for Windows Movie Maker 2.6 users trying to learn iMovie? I normally use WMM but I'm working on a particular project where aspect ratio is critical and for whatever reason, 16:9 video gets squished to 4:3 every time. The person who shot the footage for me uses iMovie and his...

If anyone needs a hard drive or thinks they might need one in the future, buy it NOW. The floods in Thailand have destroyed thousands of factories that manufacture computer parts, namely hard drives. Last week I worked on five laptops in one day that all had bad or failing drives. For...

It's been a while since I've bought a camera and have not kept up with the point-and-shoot technology. I'm getting my mom a camera for Christmas. She currently has a Canon A460 which was basic and cheap back when we bought it. The number one thing the new camera needs is a large LCD (3") but...

Can anyone recommend a good, simple program for creating videos based on mp4? I want something like Windows Movie Maker. I do not need to convert the mp4s. It can be freeware or paid. So far everything I've found either sucks/doesn't work or is way more than I need. Think YouTube, not film...

Can't decide which to go for. Whatever we choose, it will serve two main purposes: 1. Hook up my new laptop via HDMI (so if we go with a projector it must have an HDMI input, it seems like most of the newer TVs already do). My resolution is 1366x768 (14" screen). I have mini-display or HDMI...

OK, here's another one. Like I've said before I'm not really a hardware person, I mainly tinker with Windows OS problems, and I do virus/malware/scareware removal. The computer is an HP Pavilion dv6000 series. Hard drive died so the kid bought a new hard drive. Dropped it off wanting me to...

I'm helping a friend spec out some possibilities for a new laptop. We are only interested in ones with metal cases. So far all I can think of are the HP Envy, MacBook Pro, Dell Vostro, and Dell XPS. Any others on the market?

My new laptop has mini-display or HDMI out. I have an old tube TV with a co-ax in, connected via co-ax to a VCR/DVD combo with composite/RCA. My old laptop had S-video out so I used an S-video to composite adapter to connect to my VCR and have my laptop on the TV. I found a mini-DVI to...

Phil's computer will not boot after a Windows Update yesterday. The annoying thing is that it's not even POST-ing. There's no splash screen, can't get into BIOS, the monitor says "no signal" the entire time, can't get it to load boot options, etc. Ergo, I can't boot to a diagnostic utility on...

Does anyone know of any add-on or tweak that would allow me to tell FireFox to always open links within certain domains in a new tab? I visit a few forums where links open in the same tab unless the user changes the target (which they never do). So, if I've written a long post and then clicked...

I'm in the market for a new laptop. I know there are lots of Black Friday and Christmas deals, but so far everything I've found is not the quality I'm looking for. I "built" what I need on Dell and HP and my builds came within $5 of each other. It was an HP Envy and a Dell XPS and they were...

Does anyone have experience with insurance for your animal?

Know of any apps for sharing peripherals between Mac Leopard and Windows 7 64-bit? I was using Synergy just fine and then got a new Windows 7 machine and now can't get it to work at all. I really need to be able to move back and forth (not a KVM switch!). I used to be able to move across...

My bike got stolen last year but it was getting run down anyway. I need to start training one of my dogs for the "AD" (Ausdauerprüfung - a 12 mile ride for the human, run for the dog). A friend of mine into bikes said I can get something good that is used or a model that is not the current...

Is there a simple way, in either PS or FW, to take an image that is on a white or transparent canvas and convert it to just a simple black outline of the image? For example I have a simply graphic of a dog. I've erased around the outline of the dog, but his body is still filled in (it's a...

I have a puzzle... I want to be able to play divx videos (avi) that are on my laptop on a TV. Assume the TV is older, it has RCA connections but is not a hi-def TV. There is a Wii, which connects to the TV via RCA, accepts SD cards, and supposedly plays .avi files (but not the divx files...

My "K9 Unit" dog kennel on wheels is a 2004 Mazda MPV. It came with the standard car audio - single CD, no tape deck, AM/FM radio. CDs are a royal pain in the ass because of the amount of long trips we take. I am not an audiophile so I don't need a tricked out stereo system, I just want to be...

I need a picture of the band, preferably a live concert pic where you can see all four. The larger/bigger resolution the better! Something from the current tour would be ideal.

:wave:

Has anyone used one? It's a little 8"x6" desktop. I want to get my mom a computer for Christmas and this one is affordable. My "build" was $319 - wireless card, 250GB HD, 2GB RAM, AMD Dual Core X2 processor, ATI Radeon graphics, CD/DVD-RW. Not sure what it comes with but I will install...

Any pics or stills from Popmart Santiago, Mothers of the Disappeared (with them on stage)?

Anyone have any really good quality, large/hi-res pics of Bono with the laser jacket during Ultraviolet? I needs me a new desktop!
