...That this isn't a 9.5mm standard hard drive. It's a 12mm height; therefore, can't be used in laptops, and so slightly less important of a message.
Beefing up for Blu-ray
Posted 07/24/2009 at 12:55:15am
I find most low end pc's with a discreet graphics solution should play Bluray's just fine... might be a driver problem. I would look into that as well... update to the latest.

Does this not make sense only to me?

Is this review a little late to the game, or am I crazy?
(Possibly was it in the magazine, then put on the website later?)
$800 Budget PC Buyer’s Guide -- Updated Prices and Parts For October 2008

I don't think so much that the builder couldn't Afford the ram/other parts, but they were trying to make a computer under a certain dollar amount. Donated parts wouldn't really be appropriate for the budget thing... otherwise you could make a $4.00 computer from completly donated parts...

Glad they were based on Newegg prices! Thanks for the update. Still, has consideration been given to using a slightly lower end Processor/Mobo and getting a beefier video card, or just dropping the price all together?

I'm not sure if anyone else finds this stupid, but who honestly goes to "www.antec.com" to buy a case/power supply? If you are building your own computer, aren't you using a third party seller to get your components at some sort of discount? I think its stupid to use the msrp. Sure, if the magazine was "Building Computers for Dummies" i could understand it, but not at MaxPc. Finding deals on comp parts is what being a geek is about. I built a computer for a friend of mine, based off the E2180 (oc'd after) for about $500... and it wasn't that hard. Tom's Hardware can do it... http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-pc-marathon,2058.html
Also, is there any way you can transfer ownership of Vista/Xp to a new comp you buy? or is that only a legend?
