  4. Re:Marketing vs IT on Same Part, Same Supplier, Different Prices · · Score: 1

    a month ago i was looking for a new laptop and needed one that was affordable. the inspirion 1000 is being advertised for ~$700 + s/h. After some more snooping around on my dad's part, he found the exact same thing for ~$550 + s/h - but for k12 students. I've been out of high school for a little while now, but i still managed to get the discount. it doesn't make much sense to me, but hell, i laptop that blows away my old 233mhz thinkpad for $150 less than advertised.

  8. Re:Is anybody reading this using NT4? on End Of Support for Windows NT 4.0 · · Score: 1

    I'm at work right now reading this from a NT4 workstation. I work at a hotel and our entire system is all NT4. It doesn't need to be NT4, it could be 95 and everything would still work. I wish I could go through everything and get it setup in a sensible manner. The people who set this shit up like 6 years ago did way more work than they needed two just to network 4 computers.

  11. Re:The real question is... on James Bond Peelable Automobile Paint · · Score: 1

    I think the is the closest to a legitimate use I can find for this. It would make the mose sense to do it with all the same color, or transparent layers.

    Or, we could have different colors each time and when you peel off one layer the car automatically sprays the inside with New Car Smell.

  19. Re:Batt life on TV On Cellphones Ever Closer · · Score: 1

    My phone barely makes calls and barely sends a text message and I would still rather have it than a TV Phone. With the availability of broadband internet connections expanding my TV has gone the way of my VCR and AppleIIe, sitting in the corner - nostalgia items. I would rather get my news from 100 different websites than 4 different news channels. I have a TV (and tuner card) in my bedroom that never get used and a 57in in the living room that I only use to watch DVDs and OSU football games. If there is a TV show I want to watch, I download it. Back to the parent post. I agree. cellphones should make calls, receive calls, and text messages. The only reason I can see myself getting a camera phone is the simple fact that I don't have a digital camera.

  20. Re:Does me no good on Sprint Close to Buying Nextel · · Score: 1

    in my area nextel is the only carrier that covers places that every other carrier can't. My grandparents live only 10 minutes out of Columbus and sprint, att, verizon, all of them don't work worth shit... not even roaming. Nextel works perfect. I'm hoping it will be easy to switch from my sprint service to nextel service once this merger is final.
