Been having a look round for a wi-fi PCMCIA card. Cisco's Aironet's seem to be quite a bit more expensive (nothing new there then!), but as far as I can see Prism2 based cards are the only other sensible option for compatibility with many wireless apps. Most of the brands I've found with Prism2...

Hi there, I've spent the last few months doing all the research and drawing up a full spec list for my summer project of building an ultra-quiet 64-bit custom PC. Only problem now is that I have a new job, truck-loads of work and no spare time to do the build until the Autumn. Does anyone know...

I'm having major problems with wrongly delivered items from dabs. Does Dave still post here (he did a couple of years a go)? Anyone got a phone number for them?

Anyone else dealt with them and have an opinion? TIA G

I am looking for a quiet PC, so I want a Sonata case. I also want a nice AMD64 motherboard from asus/abit/etc, and an AMD64/3000 CPU. I have most of the other bits and pieces already, so I could build my own, but I would rather spend money to save time and hassle. Does anyone sell/or will anyone...

The great: Tekheads. Ordered a shuttle, processor and memory Last Wednesday at 2pm. It was shipped out within half an hour and arrived the next day. All nicely packaged, and works fine. Tekheads rock :-)

All, Ordered a Sharp LL172G 17" TFT on Thursday, with next day delivery, got the automated mail, but nothing else. The website states if there is a delay they'll mail within 24 hours.

Three weeks ago I returned a defective DVD burner to Novatech. So far nothing has happened. I check the returns section on their website daily - all it says is 'Goods Recieved from Customer'. Does anyone know how long I should wait before starting to 'pester' them? As I understand...
