    Dell notebook battery recall

    Run a google search on "dell battery recall", and you'll find a couple of news articles on Dell's annoucement today. This site seems to have the most information so far. I bought an Inspiron back in Dec '04, so I guess I'll be checking out Dell's website tomorrow morning.

    Do you keep track of your movie/tv series/anime collections online?

    Just wondering how many CAGs keep track of their DVDs and box sets online. I just found out that you can create a personal account on IMDb and manage your lists on there. Does anyone use IMDb or another website for this kinda stuff?

    Free phone calls with jajah. What's the catch?

    I just came across this website that offers a new twist on VoIP telephony. You use their site to enter your phone number and your friend's phone number. Their server calls your number, you pick up the phone, then it calls your friend's number. You're both using your regular phones; no one needs...

    Contest: Free Disc 2 Only of Appleseed Limited Edition + Metal Case

    I happen to have an extra copy of the Appleseed Limited Edition Disc 2 + the metal keepcase. Disc 1 was damaged beyond repair, so I had to throw it out. Rather than throwing out Disc 2 I figured I'll just give it away. I doubt this will appeal to many CAGs, but hell, maybe someone out there...

    What are you doing Thanksgiving weekend?

    Tomorrow I'm taking the wife and kid to Long Island for a big family dinner at my cousin's. Next day we might head out for some Black Friday shopping. Not much else planned beyond that except maybe try to get some much needed R&R. Well as much R&R that's possible with a 20-month-old constantly...

    Guess the Game from the Sound Clip

    Inspired by http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=71425. I have collected a series of midi sound clips of video game music. Most of these clips have been taken from VGMusic.com and are temporarily being hosted on my web server. I've done this not only to mask the true file names...

    Would you buy a gaming chair from this company?

    Picture taken from the homepage of AK Designs, maker of the AK Rocker whose "zero-gravity seat design keeps you comfortable during long gaming sessions and other prolonged sitting, so you can rock on and on."* See anything wrong with this picture? :lol: I noticed this chair mentioned in some...

    How good is Ico?

    I noticed a used/complete copy of Ico selling for $10 at FYE in Trumbull today. With all the recent talk about Shadow, I figured it'd be worth picking up their first game (though unrelated) especially at this price. I noticed CAG-O-Matic pricing Ico at $15-$20, so I'm pretty happy about the...

    Devil Hunter Yohko Complete $15.99 at BB (B&M, YMMV)

    I just picked up Devil Hunter Yohko Complete Collection at Best Buy in Norwalk, CT for $15.99 + tax. Don't know why it's so cheap, but it beats getting the two collections for $8.99 a piece via the current advfilms.com sale. It was the only copy on the shelf. BB online has this for $26.99, so...

    I'm in the market for a simple but decent webcam so the in-laws can watch our little tyke growing up from halfway around the world. Buddy of mine recommended the Creative Webcam NX. He says it works great for him, but online reviews seem to be hit or miss. The cheapest deal I found was at...
