Qwest Fiber Optic?

Hey guys. I was recently told that Qwest now is offering Fiber Optic to the home. I spoke to someone on the phone and they said that the standard rate is 5 dollars cheaper than my Premier Cox service. I think my Cox speed is 20 Mbps down and 2 Mbps up. I was told that the Qwest Fiber Optic is actual...

Best ipod dock stereo for $150ish?

I'm looking for a good iPod dock stereo. I've done some checking and most of the stereos either have mixed reviews from different reviewers or they are from 2008 and I can only buy them used. Does anyone have any experience with one that they would recommend? I'd definitely like it to have a radio a...

1000HE fan

I found a replacement fan for my squealing 1000HE fan.

The problem I'm having is I can't find a guide to take it apart to replace the fan. Does anyone have a link to photos/video on how to replace the fan?

Proxy server that is unknown to google?

Does anyone have a proxy server that google does not know about. Seems all of the proxy servers I find in google are blocked by the school I tutor at. Sometimes I want to be able to go to Youtube to demonstrate calculus to some of the students I work with.

Bluetooth module for a laptop?

My brother has a laptop, but I messed up and didn't get an internal BT module. He keeps breaking his mini-BT adapter because he forgets to take it out when he puts his laptop in his bag. How hard is it to put a BT adapter into a laptop. The laptop is an Asus UL20A and the MB version is UL20A Thanks,

Asus 1201N RAM slots Q

Is there only 1 slot or 2 slots for RAM on this netbook? My mom is looking to get it and wants to know if she could upgrade the memory with the manufacturer (at a decent price for 3 gigs) or do it herself for a total of 4 gigs.

Recovering the drive?

I had 2 external drives plugged in (same size). I thought the right one was turned on that I wanted to format. Murphy struck and it was the wrong one. I'd haven't done anything to the drive, except format it. Is there a way to recover the data that was on there? Is it free? Any help would be appreci...

Re: Aliens vs. Predator Update: "Bishop" to Appear

Cool, but I'm less worried about him being in the game, than the game being a flop.

I know that the developer has been hit and miss on their titles.

Re: CES 2010: NVIDIA Shows GeForce GF100 Fermi Video Card

A 1/3 jump in performance sounds very nice. Will they have the equivalent of Eyefinity functionality, where you can get 3 monitors working? I plan on using a 3 monitor system for games when I upgrade next (probably end of the year). Pretty sure that's an ATI 'special feature', but I guess we'll hav...
