They aren't locking your console down or telling you what to do with it. They are telling you "If you break our agreement, you can't use our free online service, which does not affect your console." If you have a huge issue with that and want both, get a dual nand flash with a new and hack...

You can use mods on hacked PS3's. The files are exactly the same as PC (some with lower res) but texture and model files are encrypted, so all mods have to use existing content/models/textures on PS3 until it can be decrypted. Haven't looked at it in a long time as I've been playing all games on...

If you can save say $50 more, you could get this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834215663 - $500

Very nice, can't justify $750 personally (since 1366x768 $550 isn't good enough IMO, and 1920x1080 is overkill kind of) I feel the 6850m, i5, with a 1600x900 was the sweet spot for price and resolution. If I had the extra money to spend I'd go for it though. Thanks! :)

Could you provide any links to those laptops at that price? I couldn't find a laptop with anything higher than an 6650m/7670m for less than $700. Thanks again. EDIT: So i found this http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/829664-REG/Acer_LX_RNA02_008_Aspire_7750_AS7750_6458_17_3.html Couldn't...

@junky77 The first laptop listed (the one I'm probably going to get after researching many other laptops all day) is the equivalent of the 5560G. The 7560G is mostly the same as the 5560G, with a larger screen size, resolution, and a few more GB of ram and HDD space. I've seen it has a...

It's actually pretty common in my experience, it's just rarely caught. When I was in school, their IT were horrible. Either that, or they just got some random people that said they know how to work with computers and hired them. I remember that rather than asking HOW I installed iTunes on the...

jerm1027PS2 compatibility was never an issue about bugs as much as cost. The first wave of PS3's had a physical Emotion Engine (PS2 processor) in there, which was in addition to the Cell Broadband Engine. Sony had to reduce costs in order the keep to price to stay competitive with the XBox 360...

I think part of this is to lower costs for them and get more sales with a cheaper console, but I'm sure they also decided to do this to remove the exploits from the previous phat and slim models. This means current nand/nor flashers won't work and probably remove or change the usb dev mode...

jjb01I have the prior version of the Sony's Google TV set top for over a year. This one still has the same problems, no Over The Air support and likely content blocked by the networks. Until antenna input is part of the picture this can unfortunately be a niche player only. Please clarify...

Paul SiuThe problem is Vizio has a competing product for $99. Logitech Google TV boxes sell for the same $99. Some roku boxes have an even lower price.

festerovicI always wondered why they didn't have this when the TVs all started to go smart. Seems smarter to have the brains in a separate box, so you don't have to upgrade the TV to get new features. Logitech google tv STB and sony bluray google tv STB both came out October 2010 so it was...

afrobaconI think your order of operations is a little off... Originally I was just typing a sentence, rather than format and fix it I just deleted stuff and added in symbols. Sorry, I should have had coffee first before posting on the internet. You understand what I meant though. :)
