Universal microUSB Mobile Phone Charger Standard Approved
Posted 10/26/2009 at 06:24:58pm
I have multiple phones that use Mini-USB, personnal motorola, my work motorola, heck even my Jabra, uses micro, but came with a mini to micro adaptor, why not just use the mini, then I would not have to buy cables either, as all my MP3, Camera and just about everything else use the Mini as well.

How is this new? The only thing they did was shrink the process. This is the fundamental principle behind any refridgeration system.

I have found that the best way to combate nasty infections is to use the above mentioned pieces of software, try and run them in safe mode, and disable System Restore, and remove all previous restore points, I know this sounds drastic, but a lot of these nasty bugs bury themselves and hide in system restore waiting for the next reboot then wham, reinfected all over again.

Whats missleading about it? You can only install one drive per sATA port on the motherboard. If you have 5 ports you can only install 5 drives.
Quiet Your Xbox 360 for...$900?!

Why not just use the case that Lian-Li designed for the 360. Sure it voids your warranty, but I am pretty sure that if you keep it nice and cool you wont have to worry about the red ring of death.
