 By jsatok, 1 hour ago

I bought a Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP in January 2009, and have since gone through four. I am in desperate need of a good quality monitor, but I keep on having issues with the Dell ones. Issues with Monitors are as follows: #1: Was very very hot. #2: Was even hotter than #1. #3: There were ghosting effects when viewing fast moving, dark images. #4: Same as #3. Anyone have similar issues? Read more »

Microsoft Windows 7: Dropbox in Windows 7

 By notgary, 2 hours ago

Earlier today, I decided to upgrade my Dropbox account and move my entire home directory into it so I had a real time back up of all my files and folders. I simply went into my home directory and cut (not copied) all of my folders out of it and pasted them into the Dropbox folder I had in my drives root directory, but when I went back to my home directory to check that I hadn't missed anything, I saw that some of the folders hadn't moved. These were "My Music", "My... Read more »

HTC Google Nexus One: I wanted to get a Nexus... (the Google fiasco)_ a rant.

 By nicolas, 3 hours ago

This weekend i wanted to get a Nexus One. I'm currently a very satisfied Tmobile customer (the only one?), 17 months in a 2-yr contract on a family plan. So i checked the tmobile website to see if i was eligible for a handset upgrade. it turns out that i can get any phone for the same price a new customer would get. Great! I went to the Nexus page to buy the phone subsidized (with new 2-yr contract) in turns out: 1. I can't get the phone because i'm on a family plan. WTF? 2.... Read more »

 By igateno, 14 hours ago

I have been using Aperture to manage my RAW files from my Nikon D80 for about a year now. I bought the S90 and realized that Aperture does not support its RAW files (but oddly enough it does support the G11). Has anyone ran into this problem? Have you found an elegant solution? How do you handle the barrel distortion? Read more »

Motorola DROID: More Home Screens!

 By SteveoSaurusRex, 15 hours ago

My girlfriend is afraid of rooting her Droid and at this point I've learned not to push her. But I wanted to offer her an alternative the Droid's limited number of home screens. Would you guys mind listing some home screen replacement APPS (NOT roms) that offer more home screens (I tried a market search but many of the developers neglected to mention this feature before downloading). Which one is the best? Which one will help her minimize her Nexus One envy (yes, I heard about the... Read more »

Barnes & Noble nook: Should I wait... And what does the Nook come with?

 By toddjy, 16 hours ago

I'm currently leaning toward the Nook over Amazon's Kindle, because I don't like the buttons on the front of the Kindle. But is this technology about to be superseded? Amazon just bought a touch screen company; e-ink is moving forward; many people think lcd tablets are good for reading. I don't want to buy this just before the price drops 50-100 dollars. I did that with the Wii. Also, what does this come with? Does it have some kind of cover, or do I have to buy... Read more »

The headset comes up as an audio device and works well for Skype of Ventrillo. I always seem to have issues with regular 3.5mm headsets so this trick is real helpful. Cheers Read more »
