I don't know squat about Linux networking, let alone sharing an internet connection. However, I think you'd be much better off either, purchasing a *nix supported Wireless adapter or simply plugging your laptop into one of the router's free LAN sockets.

Looks good, but just a couple of things I have to mention: Your post is very compact and a little difficult to read. Consider some revision. Response Time- 8ms is not very high. While yes, the lower the better, 8ms was the sweet spot where manufacturers seemed to have eliminated blurring. Some...

There is none that I know of. You'd be better off buying a standalone Upscaling DVD player. Some good ones to look out for are the Philips DVP5960, LG DNX190UH and the Denon DVD-1730.

Sure, it's possible. But without knowing the make and model of the card, it's hard to say.

The latest AGP video cards that are out are the X1950 Pro and the 7800GS. There is also the Gainward Bliss 7800GS which uses the G71 core. The X1950 Pro usually beats the 7800 in most tests and is considerably cheaper than the 7800. The other good thing about the X1950 is it's feature set isn't...

Plus, if you really know how to fix a computer, you should know how to bypass the passwords. Sounds like incompetence to me, for a huge company like Acer anyway.

You don't need kick ass graphics to get a good playing experience.

As good as it would be getting a good action flick with probably the worst security software out there, their choice of film ensures everyone in the family can watch it.

As Saba said, try burning at a slower speed. Burning a disc is a very system intensive task. Your Hard Drive may not be fast enough to supply the data at a consistent rate at higher speeds. Another idea would be to Defragment your Hard Drive so it's got less work to do seeking the data...

I think for most people on eBay, it's a competition just to beat the other bidders, regardless if they really need the part or not.

No. You can't mix and match cards with different chips.

You could use a jigsaw with a metal cutting attachment, but it would be a very rough cut and would require a fair bit of filing to smooth things out. Your best chance at getting a successful, clean and accurate cut would be with a Dremel cutting tool. Very precise cutting with minimal mess.

Probably for the first time ever, I purchased something for use with something else. Today, I bought a new 26 inch Teac LCD television for AU$1599. Fully High Definition compatible with DVI, Component, HDMI (v1.3 I assume) and everything else. Along with the TV, for good measure I threw in a...

I don't see why not.

Logitech Laser series maybe?

Perhaps the best of the FX series was the 5950 Ultra. Yes it was beefy, noisy and had high power requirements but it did alright. Still sucked compared to the 9800XT though :P

I can honestly answer question 1 but the others, I just don't know. All screens have a resolution limit. With computer monitors, the screen will simply refuse to display said resolution and turn off (and probably make some screeching noises in the case of a CRT screen). With television's...

It's still a fairly beefy system. Most computers off the shelf from say HP and Packard Bell aren't even that good.

That's true. My very first spindle of discs were 4th class media and almost every disc has perished since then. I then purchased some TDK and Sony discs, and have never had a failed burn, plus they all work still. This is why I use those brands exclusively. If you data is important to you, get...

There have been alot of problems arise with installing SP2 by itself, not to mention how damn long it takes. It may interest you to slipstream the SP onto your XP CD. That way, it gets integrated directly onto the install CD and you won't have to worry about it any more. Autostreamer being the...
