    iPhone 5 case

    Bought my wife a nice plastic Gangnam Style case from a local Vietnamese restaurant for $7. Great purchase. Not sure if they are available somewhere online, I am sure he bought them in bulk somewhere and was just trying to flip them for a bit of beer money.

    Wireless Router: Which is the most reliable?

    In my opinion, all wireless is ****. Of course, one of my primary goals is to stream 720p through my house, quickly and reliably. I still haven't been able to pull it off, and I've tried damn near everything. About to give up and wire CAT6 to the 2 rooms where I really need it. For what it's...

    Buy once, buy quality?

    I'm bad for this. The worst part is I hate inferior quality and I know it, yet I always do it to save money. Prime example... wanted a tablet, so I bought a cheapy doo 7" for $100 bucks. Used it a few times and bored with it, but I still want to get a good tablet, so now I'm trying to sell it...

    Anybody else having NHL withdrawls?

    Back in October we bought some tickets for our local AHL team (Abbotsford Heat, FYI), to see them play the Chicago Wolves (Canucks farm team) and check out some of our favorite players. Of course, our luck would dictate that the week before the game, they end the lockout and pull up all the good...

    I have $100 to spend at Amazon: What would you do?

    You could probably get a few nice articles of clothing, or a good pair of shoes. Personally though, I would probably contribute it towards some kind of awesome electronics purchase (WTB a new receiver).

    Diet-Fi

    It's the new year, and despite the fact that I am anti-new year's resolution, I'm officially trying to lose a good chunk of weight for 2013. Posting this to see what other people are doing and share ideas.   Wife and I are doing a pretty strict keto diet. Basically, limited to 21g of carbs...

    how many of you guys cook???

    I've tried many times, but always fail to maintain the momentum, because well, I just don't like it. I did make some good stuff right after we had our baby... some amazing smoked roasts and fried chicken from scratch, to name a couple. My wife is a food magician though, I don't know how she does...

    The Canon Thread

    When I was younger and... financially gifted (moreso than now anyway), I had a 20d, 10d, 17-40 F4L and 70-200 F2.8L. Sold it all over the years because it was never being used, and I wanted the money for other ventures (including an engagement ring, which has worked out well for me). When we had...

    Which Android Music player do you use?

    I don't know if this counts, but I pretty much use Slacker exclusively (not many other options for a Canadian). The nice thing though is that I was able to get 6gb of data for almost nothing, thanks to a recent retention deal. AND, my truck is Bluetooth equipped. So I have the thing mounted on...

    The Offical Unoffical SNES Thread

    Any recommendations for some good games? I recently became the owner of a GameKlip and I've been wanting to play some of the classics on my phone via emulator. Beat Super Mario RPG already, great nostalgia. Thinking of giving Earthbound a try. Any others?

    What is your job in real life?

    IT support. I'm fortunate enough to have landed a good job that provides a decent income, but probably nothing like some of the hardcore users here. It's been sufficient to provide me with a good home setup. Most of my money is in home theater, but I have a nice dual room setup with a couple of...

    Best antivirus for Windows 7?

    I am currently recommending Microsoft Security Essentials. I previously used AVG and was happy with it, but in the interest of trying new things I gave it a shot, and I was a little bit happier with it overall. Would also recommend installing Malwarebytes as well.

    Need Advice: Dress Shoes for Interviews, Cost no Object

    I'm a fan of point leather lace up shoes. I have 2 pairs that I rotate right now, a pair of wingtips with broguing, and a plain, shiny black pair.    Assuming you are in the US and might not have access to an Aldo, I had my eye on the Florsheim Lexington for a long time, but ended up buying...

    What headphones are you currently rocking?

    Although I don't rock them very much anymore, my main set is the Audio Technica ATH-A900, have had them for a few years and love them dearly <3
