The assumption is that XP users are dropping everything to upgrade to Win 7. They aren't probably because they are waiting for the bugs to get ironed out for Win 7 upgraders or waiting for Black Frida ...

Don't upgrade because we aren't ready to handle the support calls! That's the message he's sending.Screw him, I'm ramrodding my in-laws into the world of 7 from XP, and they are fighting. I built them ...

My friend had a similar problem, we diagnosed it finally when the video card caught fire. Bad capacitor. Look for bad caps on the MoBo since everything else was checked. Also, if it is a bad HDD then ...

So Voodoo's contributions will be less visible now? What a mess. What ever happened to that gaming PC with the aluminum case and the layout turned 90 deg? Will there ever be a flat out, balls to the w ...

Seems that this is the new frontier for LAN machines. When is Alienware or Voodoo going to hop on this form factor and give us an all in one that can run Crysis? When is Gordon going to hack one of th ...

Linux is incompatible with the software Best Buy wants to SELL you. Which is better for Best Buy, selling a PC with windows and then a copy of Office, or a PC with Linux that comes with Open Office. H ...

I thought this was ironed out and they announced the infringed designs, called the unseen, were coming back. I want to pummel guys in a Maruader, damn it!! ...

WHo is rescue.com? Do they handle all the calls for these OEMs? If so then there numbers are meaningful. Otherwise we can't say how relaible a measure they are. And they are only using the number of c ...

Be real, the article isn't talking about the MaxPC gamer, they are talking about OEMs and how laptops are outselling desktops. Gamers are such a small niche. Regardless, it is time for the Manf to ste ...

The zero point rig is about $1100, but if you added another $150 4870 Video card in crossfire to the budget special, would it beat the ZP and still be over $200 less? ...

You can sleep well, Will, but you have thrown the Dream out the window because... you feel guilty that your unobtainable build is 10% even more unobtainable to your audience. You just don't get it. Hi ...

mike_art03a misses the point. It is DREAM machine, and as such it has to push the boundaries and be exceptional in all facets. These builds are all rooted too deeply in reality, not in dreamland. You ...

DM is supposed to be no limits, anything goes. Screw the economy! Some of us are doing well regardless and we want to know what over the top PC parts are out there and how they work together. "Mo ...

The Firebird matches the Zero Point rig step for step, and does it with half the power and half the size. You have to respect that. If this was a test shot, let's watch the genre develop. More OEMs sh ...

Now, I'll need to build ap a COre i7 machine for this, and what's the best joystick out there? Is it Win 7 compatible? ...

Talk about prosecutorial over reach! There is no justification for freezing all the accounts. If there is money laundering or illegal transactions then they should be addressed singularly, not by puni ...

Vista would be a success except that with Win 7, MS is burying it. Its a case where it can't shake the perception, so they're going to try something else. The Mojave Experiment illustrated how the per ...

Now this is entertainment! This is like a presidential debate where its more about the sound bite and image rather than the substance. I haven't seen two companies go after each other like this in qui ...

I ran off to look for an IBM at lunch. Where can I get one? Oh that's right, they don't make laptops no more. GUess I should just shave my head. ...

If they're just mixing up their own batch of ARM licensed system on a chip soup then they'll just farm out the chip making to a foundry. Seems like a subtle difference between having someone design an ...

Anyone notice the Vista in the pictures? Are they using Vista's built in but never used second display tech, or have they rolled their own solution? ...

The all-in-one PC market I think would be LAN Party. How easy to tote something around the size of a 24" screen rather than a screen and a LAN Box? The Firebird has addressed the problem with gam ...

Is the market for netbooks saturated now? I think everyone who was updating from an old laptop to a netbook did it over the holidays. ...
