    A bit chunky, but I love the RAID 5 option.

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16834998051 It's a bit spendy, but it't the one I plan on getting when I get around to it... I was having the same problems making the decision, and thats the one I found would best suit my needs. positive review found here...

    Black Screen of Death

    Nice! Any idea what was wrong with it, or was it just cranky?

    BIOS password

    Is that just different in notebooks then? I remember having to remove the main power from my first desktop when I was first playing around with BIOS settings (I got a lil crazy), otherwise it would not reset.

    Black Screen of Death

    That really sucks. Are you sure it's the screen though? Have you tried hooking it up to an external monitor?

    Acer Aspire 5684

    I hate to say it, but I think Vista will be almost required for games in a little while. I saw that Halo 2 was being released for the PC at EBGames the other day only to be informed that Vista will be required to run it. Damn Microsoft :cry:

    BIOS password

    You removed the main battery when you reset the CMOS, right? From my understanding it only relies on the CMOS battery when main power isn't available.

    1st Laptop- recommendations?

    I've never owned an apple (they just don't feel right to me) so I can't compare macbooks to K|N computers. I can tell you that I have owned my K|N Executioner for a few months now, and I couldn't be happier with it. Mark does indeed speek english! In fact I'd wager that it's even his primary...

    Hard Clash Between Colossus: DELL XPS M1710 vs CLEVO M570U !

    Do you seriously think that Dell is going to come to your house and fix your XPS next day? I think what you're talking about is the warranty they offer large businesses, which isn't remotely relevant this case. "With XPS, you'll not only get help when you need it, but get a rapid, accurate...

    Hard Clash Between Colossus: DELL XPS M1710 vs CLEVO M570U !

    I'm not sure what you're smoking... but K|N has one of the best warrenties out there. As for importing notebooks to Italy, I must have missed that part on my first read through. Given the choice between Dell and Santech I would definitely pick the Santech. I've had a few close friends try to...

    Apple's MacBook Pro - All This and Windows Too

    I see your point, but I still say that Microsoft's popularity is the largest factor to the number of attacks on their systems and alleged lack of attacks on Macs.

    Apple's MacBook Pro - All This and Windows Too

    Why does everyone keep insisting that Macs are "virus proof" or "unhackable" I'm currently enrolled in a network security degree program, and O've found that Macs are just as hackable as everyone else. The only reason Mac users feel more safe with them is that less people own Macs, so they are...
