    Some fun in Vegas!

    So I'm headed to Las Vegas next week for a critical care class with a couple other paramedics. We're going to be looking for fun things to do without spending a ton of money on Sunday-Wednesday nights for three weeks in a row. We're staying at the Stratosphere, so we'll be riding the rides at...

    Low-key Caribbean spring break... -fi?

    Does anyone know if it's possible to find a low-key spring break destination in the Caribbean that doesn't cost an arm and a leg? Does such a thing exist? I've never been to the Caribbean, and I'm not trying to be super-picky, I just want to be able to snorkle, lay on the beach, and eat some...

    Cheap extended travelling?

    My life has taken some turns, and long story short, I'm looking to do some extended travelling on the cheap. I'm thinking 1-6 months, for not much more than $3000 including airfare. I've considered Buenos Aires (a la How To Live Like a Rock Star in Buenos Aires), or Thailand (which supposedly...

    Calling South Africa?

    I was wondering if any of you knew any good ways to call South Africa, preferably calling to a mobile phone, without spending a bundle of money. I've seen some places online that sell phone cards, but I don't know how reputable they are so I don't want to give them a credit card number... Any...

    Portable USB memory cards

    I need to get a "jump drive" type USB memory card so I can do Writing homework on the laptops at work. Does anyone have any advice on what to get? I don't think I need huge amounts of storage, and I don't have USB 2.0. Any thoughts on the best bang-for-the-buck? Thanks in advance. G

    Post a pic of your pet wearing headphones!

    Wait, weren't we just talking about useless posts? Oh well... couldn't resist. This is Argus. He prefers open phones so he can still hear the cat sneaking up behind him. Actually, he looks happy, but only because there is no music playing. He freaks out if he hears the music, gives me a What...

    DOS based game on Windows 2000

    I just picked up a copy of Descent from Goodwill. I really liked the game back when it was new, and I'd like to be able to play it again. I haven't tried to install it... would I be asking for trouble to try to install an old DOS game on a Windows 2k machine? G

    AKG K60 ???

    I met a guy who has a pair of AKG K60s, which he might be persuaded to sell. I can't audition them like I would want, because I don't have a portable headamp, and he doesn't have any components I'd trust to try them out with. I can't find anything on the search, has anyone heard these? G

    Samsung DVD-HD841

    My Panasonic DVD RV31 died on me, and I went ahead and bought the Samsung DVD-HD841, figuring I'll want the SACD capability when I upgrade my receiver. Here is my full (audio) review: MY WIFE noticed how much better it sounds, without my prompting. She's never taken an interest in audio before...
