yep... but I've seen alot of screenshots from other forums that I use as rotating sets of wallpapers, and that's what I was getting at in that regard, but the excessive OS version/hdwr discussions still bugs me though....

Well, that's certainly a nice shot, but again, having all that other stuff in it (icons, toolbar etc) takes away from what would otherwise be a great image... Guess I'll just use the magic eraser & crop tools to get rid of that stuff & be done with it :D

Well, I see that this thread has been around for a while, but I just noticed it today... And I thought that, judging by the title, that it was about posting cool-looking screenshots, a large number of which are X'd out/blocked/banned/deleted, or worse, the ones that do show up have those stupid...

Well, I am certainly not a financial wizard of any sorts, but I don't understand how a company of this size, regarded as one of the top storage producers in the world, making & selling some of the best drives anywhere in the market, can end a quarter with less than $2B in cash..... Yea I know...

Well, in all fairness, if I have to chose between a dull turd and a polished, sheeny one, I'd take the sheeny one every time, hehehe :) Having said that, since I am NOT into, nor have any need for, turds of any variety, I'll just pass on this one !

These fails alone would make it an auto no-buy for me, but others may not care.... Also, if this case is supposedly meant for use with back-connected mobos, then why the giant cabling grommets ? Seems like they are just tryin to save a few $$ by not making separate versions.... Sorry, but...

Well, just meh, meh & more meh.... 2 minor patches vs 17 KNOWN issues that need to be fixed, so, just like their miniscule gen-gen cpu performance increases, they seem to be using the piddly-diddly, when-we-get-around-to-it mode for GPU driver updates too :(

Even IF I were inclined to spend $200 on a KB (I'm not & never will be), it certainly would NOT be for a twiX-bot sized gamr-boi toy like this :) p.A.s.S....

BustBuy....w.O.w..... The last time I was in a BB store, I asked the tweener-bot salesperson where the PSU's were, and he gave me an angry, dazed "deer in the headlights" look, as if that was a verboten question or something....fortunately for him I was in a good mood that day, and I had a good...

meh... a few billion here, a few billion there... it's ONLY money, hehehe :) And in the larger scope of things, this is only a drop in the bucket of silicon $$ being thrown around all over the world......just look at how much the US (taxpayers) are spending to build new fabs after all....ONLY...

Yea I know, it really suks wallah.... The only other real retail pc shop is MicroCenter, but their locations are so few & far between, they are a minor blip on most people's radar, especially mine, since the closest one is 4 hours away... I long for the days of Circuit City, Radio Shack...

Uh huh..... Well that's a nice thought about needing 2x ports to charge & use the rodent, but this is easily avoided by using an AC charger with a USB port on it, like all those old chargers you have laying around from old phones, tablets etc.....therefore you only need to use 1 port on your pc...

I REALLY dislike all these "Best xxx" crap articles, since they usually lack any objectivity or sound reasoning.... If you are going by price alone, then there is a BUTTLOAD of competition at the bottom of the barrel, so the real question, IMO, is "Best" for who ? What may be the "best" for you...

BustBuy..... the smelly, unshaven armpit of the retail pc world, hahahaha :D

If that gawdy, 80's-lookin box thing is their idea of a USB dongle, then that explains why they were destined to die a painful death, even under the watchful eyes of their new overlords, who pushed their own formally well-regarded brand into the ground by cutting every possible corner just to...
