I apologize if this sounds dumb, but what is "CCC"?

I recently purchased a Dell Studio XPS 7100 with an AMD Phenom II X6 1055T + ATI Radeon HD 5450 1GB. I've hooked it up to a 40" Sony 720p LCD rear projection tv, and to a 40" Sony 1080p LED tv. For both, I hooked it up using an HDMI cable. For both, the image doesn't stretch all the way to the...

Sorry to hear about your job. Can you send me prices for these items?

My company has a micro-purchase plan, and I will be reimbursed up to $1200 for computer/computer related item purchases. There are some excluded items (monitors over 24 in., smartphones, PC games, etc...) but everything I am interested in getting is included. I don't engage in much PC gaming...

What are your thoughts on a timeline for LED backlit tv's becoming the standard, and being priced close to what LCD and Plasma are right now? edit: How do I change my title from "CAG Veteran"? Is there a post count I need to get to before that's available?

I was thinking about jumping on the $1000 Best Buy 46" Sony LCD and PS3 deal prior to Christmas, but I didn't because my eyes were getting bigger than my wallet. I'll be in the market for a new television soon, but wanted to know what some of you, with more experience in these matters, were...

Let's make a deal! Seriously, I think I may just give it away if I can't find someone interested enough to buy it. It's kind of lame, which is why I only used it once and then returned it and the cables into their original packaging, but I figured someone might be nostalgic and be interested.

I have an Aura Interactor that I got many years ago and only used once. It's still complete and in the original box and I was wondering if anyone knows the best route to go in order to unload it. Ebay? Craigslist? CAG? How much should I ask for?

Damn! (Do they still have flights to Mexico at this time of the night?)

I've heard that certain ISP's have started to drop off bandwidth to persons they suspect are downloading large amounts of illegal content. I can't find the original page I saw on Wikipedia, but I know I saw a list of ISP's and mine was one of them. Does anyone know if they report the people...

Do they still do the writing (essay) portion on the adaptive computer tests?

I know from working at Best Buy that nearly the majority of the price of speakers (any brand from KLH to Klipsch) is margin (profit) and not the actual cost of the speaker. Is there a website like monoprice where you can get good speakers super cheap?

The 5 disc DVD player integrated into the receiver portion is going to sap power from your speakers, taking away from the overall sound. The HTiB speaker quaility is usually nothing to brag about anyway, and if it has a passive subwoofer (most HTiB's do), then your sub isn't going to be what...
