    HDTV on the cheap. Any recommendations?

    Alright, here's the quick and dirty. Income tax time is coming around so I'm spending a small portion of what I'm getting back on a decent TV. I'm capping it at $600, although I'd prefer to pay around $500. 32" would be nice, but as it looks, I'll probably be getting a 26" which is fine IMO. I'd...

    Ebay raising fees, yet again..

    So, I'm curious, why does Ebay raise fees every single year. I remember last year around this time I got an email from Ebay stating how they were raising fees, but this year, they're doing it again. Even more confusing is the fact that they kill you with fees for Ebay, and then kill you with...

    Poll on polls
