I work at a Japanese bank like Merrill Lynch and we use dual monitors there too. It really helps when you want to have multiple spreadsheets open or when you're running a lot of reports. It's useful at work, but I've never found myself wishing that I had a dual monitor set up when I work at...

With people favoring SSDs, flash storage, and cloud computing, the HDD business isn't profitable anymore. It's not like 5 years ago when there was a real difference in quality between manufacturers.

Brookfield was the reason I came into the social lounge

Welcome back, I haven't visited this site for a long time too, says the last time I visited was in 2010, but I remember your name kinda haha.

Hey, I'm going to be buying an i7 930 this weekend and I was wondering if the stock HS/F from the retail version is good enough for this piece of hardware. Not sure if anyone has any experience with the i7 930 in particular, but the i7 920 maybe? Any insight would be awesome, thanks!

Haven't posted here in a while, but I'm looking to build a new computer in the coming month or two to replace the one in my sig, and need some suggestions on what motherboard to use since I've kinda fallen out of the loop since my CF days. So far I'm looking at: CPU: Core i7 920 GFX: Radeon...

Looks like the kind of computer I'm planning on building in the next 3 months or so. As an interim graphics card that selection is fine. I know you were probably hoping for someone to point out something that's wrong with your build so that you could fix it or something, but those look like...

A Zune HD and PS3, or invest that into a 40"+ 120hz+ TV.

Hey, I used to frequent this forum a lot, but I've sort of fallen out of touch, and I'm not really up to date with parts anymore, especially when it comes to processors and motherboards. I'm thinking about buying a new rig to replace the one in my sig within the next month or so, I'm wondering...

I watched the first one when I was in like 8th grade. This is one of those movies where you either love it or hate it. That said, I don't know if I can bear the watch the second one, it seems like one of those movies where if you make a sequel it's just fated to fail, and even make you...

Diablo II: LOD, easy.

I'm attending Rutgers University right now, so I'm a Scarlet Knight fan as far as NCAA goes. I was front row in our new-ish stadium on Monday for a defensive meltdown and awful offensive play, needless to say, I'll be front row again this Saturday. As far as NFL goes, New York Giants all the...

A 4870 HD would fit the bill nicely, you won't regret it, best price/performance ratio for a long time.

There are these new Disney themed Eee PCs coming out, I read an article about them on Engadget, those might cater to a child, there's a dark blue one and a pink one for guys and girls respectively. Just a thought, they're chalked up to sell for 350 dollars...

If there wasn't any of those rabid Mac fanboys around, I wouldn't be so opposed to the brand. Not only that, but those 'I'm a Mac' commercials just piss me off.
